Using LG with a Syringe

[sherrie215]

Its not as cool as Elviras video, but until we can get the video file working again these pictures will help out!

1/2 ounce bottle of LG and 3 mm syringe:


pull back on the syringe to gt some air into the syringe, then inset into the bottle of LG:


push the air INTO the bottle of LG:


slowly start pulling back the plunger and letting the LG fill the syringe:


let the syringe fill until you have the desired amount of LG in the syringe:


Ready to go!

That's great!! Do you put the excess LG back in the bottle?

I think the LG starts to thicken pretty fast, so I would probably try to dispense just what you need into the syringe and whatever is left I'd probably toss....Ive only used it in the syringe for the demo today...first timer! hehe I had to try it out and thought I may as well take some pictures while I was at it....what a great little idea...Thanks again to Elvira!

yeah that was the bestest idea. And it all works so smoothly it'll make u really love LG. I stand my syringe up on it's end whil i go get the next weft ready. And nothing oozes out of the syringe. No lie, i can't wait to redo my hair so i can play w/ the syringes some more.. i usta DREAD working w/ LG and didn't do it .

great idea, I've always struggled with the LG going dry too quick

Check out this nifty syringe I found at Duane Reade (a drugstore). The "dosage kork" allows me to turn a whole bottle upside down and freely load the syringe!
