Tessica Brown, the TikToker who went viral for shaving her hair with Gorilla Glue, has revealed the real reason she used the sticky substance – she needed her hair perfectly slipped in place for a date.
In early January, Brown had plans to hang out by a lake near his sister’s house with his fiancé Dewitt and was in a hurry to leave the house, he told The Post Wednesday during an interview with Zoom.
“We were going, so I mean, I went to spread the Got2B glue and air came out … so now I’m looking all over the house, I have to find something you know for these advances,” said Brown, of 40 years. .
“We were going to the lake, so I know I couldn’t cope with those advances. It wouldn’t work, I wouldn’t be sitting on the lake.”
Brown said he “ran to the kitchen, passed in front of the fridge” and sitting on top was the quick fix he thought would fix his hair, a can of Gorilla glue that can be sprayed.
“Am I like you know what? I can use it and as soon as I get home I can take it off, you know, wash it, ”he continued.
“That’s not what happened.”
He sprayed the glue on his hair and then, as part of his normal routine, dried the industrial adhesive that cemented it to his scalp and flew out the door, thinking everything was fine.
After a happy afternoon by the lake with his friend, Brown returned home to take a shower and realized the sticky situation he was in now.
“Listen, he didn’t come out, the water was escaping like the shower curtain. It was bad business, ”Brown recalled.
“I was afraid to even call my mom. I didn’t call her for a week.”
At first, he thought he would try again the next day and leave.
“I said I wouldn’t panic yet,” he said.
But as the days went by and her hair became completely tangled, she realized she had a problem on her hands and eventually stopped calling her mother and asking for help.
“He was here at a zero point two seconds,” Brown laughed.
“We even tried cooking oil, we tried all the oils in the store.”
All the while, Brown was in agony.
“The ponytail I had, it was like someone was squeezing it, squeezing it every day. It looked like the red ants were inside, I can’t get into it,” Brown said.
“I didn’t sleep, I didn’t eat, everything was almost trying to get me out of my head, I lost between 10 and 15 pounds,” he continued.
“[I thought] that he would lose all his hair, suffer damage to his scalp and could not make it grow back. ”
Luckily, the famous plastic surgeon, Dr. Micheal Obeng, caught the wind of Brown’s furry situation and managed to save his locks during a multi-hour procedure in Beverly Hills last week.
Also, luckily, Brown says she remains committed despite getting caught up in the sticky situation.
She has been ordered not to put anything in her hair for the next six weeks, but said she plans to keep things simple once she is completely cured.
“I’m going to change that natural look or a wig.”
