Sealing the inside of head, what do you use?

I started with E6000 and now I have switched to Mod Podge. It does take a few days to dry. Is it also necessary to double seal??

I use mod podge and seal it two times and let dry then brush it and see if I lose hair if I don’t I leave it alone if I do lose hair I seal it a 3rd time.

I think it’s called Fabric Fusion. It’s waterproof. Takes a long time to dry but I use a lot. I did only one coat because like I said, I used a lot. The inside is coated thickly and I really didn’t see a point to using more.

I have been using the Mod Podge and it works great. Should I seal it again ?
IDo you think Mod Podge is good to use too?

Like I said I have been using it the first tutorial I watched she said it’s what she used and had been doing babies over 4 years with it. I myself have had no issues with using Mod Podge.

Do you know if Mod Podge is waterproof? It goes on so nicely. I did do a coat of E6000 over it but I don’t know if that is necessary.

I liked the way E6000 sealed and dried quick but I found that while spreading it, it was pulling my hair out from the inside. I don’t mean a little hair either, so I quit using it. I used gem tac the last few times but it takes a lot longer to dry.

I’ve only used Mod Podge but I did just buy a bottle of Gem Tac. I find that the Mod Podge spreads easily inside the head and doesn’t pull the hair out when applying it. It does take 1-2 days to dry. I have a tube of E6000 but can’t stand the smell of it and the consistency is so tacky and thick. I only use it for pacifier magnets and gluing eyes in. Also with all the cautions on the tube of the E6000 I get nervous using it at all!!

I used to use E600 but got tired of it pulling hair out as I spread it around. I switched to Mod Podge but was warned it doesn’t hold up very well. I used Aleene’s Fabric Fusion but it took FOREVER to dry. I now use Liquitex Matte Gel and it awesome! It spreads well, cleans up with water, dries within hours and is durable.

I use 2 coats of Aleene’s Okay to Wash It. It spreads easily, is flexible and waterproof. I have found they all take awhile to dry.
