    Somewhere, I read that this moron idiot victim is planning to sue Gorilla Glue.

    I wanna be in the room when she talks to the lawyer.

      After more than 15 washes, various treatments and a trip to the emergency room, Tessica Brown’s hair still won’t budge. A TikTok explaining her dilemma has drawn a huge following and advice.

      Feb. 8, 2021

      Social media users have offered advice and support to Tessica Brown after she used Gorilla Glue as a hairspray substitute. She has documented her ordeal on TikTok.

      Social media users have been captivated by the plight of a woman named Tessica Brown, her decision to use Gorilla Glue instead of hair spray and a harrowing, monthlong quest to undo a seemingly permanent hairstyle.

      It all started when Ms. Brown ran out of her usual hair spray, Got2b Glued. In a pinch, she opted to use a different product she had on hand to finish off her hair: Gorilla Spray Adhesive, made by Gorilla Glue.

      “Bad, bad, bad idea,” she said in a TikTok posted last week that cautioned others against making the same mistake.

      After more than 15 washes, various treatments and a trip to the emergency room, her hair still hadn’t moved.

      “My hair has been like this for about a month now — it’s not by choice,” she said in the video.

      Ms. Brown’s hair mishap has intrigued internet users who became invested in her predicament and have rooted her on virtually, leaving messages of encouragement and ideas in the comment sections of her posts.

      Her original video has been viewed nearly 16 million times on TikTok and nearly two million times on Instagram, and has been widely shared across other social platforms.

      The situation has elicited communal cringes and sympathy for Ms. Brown, who has become known as the Gorilla Glue Girl, as days have passed and various remedies failed to help.

      Got 2bglued is where she got the idea.

      This reminds me so much of hydroxychlorquine and people eating aquarium tablets.

      It has to be Trump’s fault somehow.

      The media taught me that once I see a word I can generalize it and blame the President for any off label use.

      Huzzah.

                Another reason to hate Twitter.

                If the shots of "Gorilla Glue" with the blue checkmark, indicating a verified account, were allowed by Twitter it's a serious issue. It's totally possible that someone faked the screenshots.

                Note: @gorilla glue ≠ @gorillaglue.

                  @axtremus that’s pretty obnoxious. May as well be Amos and Andy.

                      Right? Surprising.
