Stiff where? Still stiff here. Much like the relationship between Black women and our hair, the situation involving our good sis Tessica Brown (aka Gorilla Glue Girl, as she’s been unofficially dubbed on social media) and her horrendous hair catastrophe that went viral last week has also increased in complexity.
Last week, we told you about Brown’s unfortunate circumstance involving her hair and the permanent (not meant for hair) adhesive Gorilla Glue spray. If you’ve somehow missed this story, allow me to sum it up for you in the simplest way I can. Essentially, Miss Brown ran out of one hair product and thought a completely different product would ultimately give her the same effect. The good news? It did. The bad news? The product she used wasn’t made for hair. Like, at all. Due to that fact, Brown has consequently been stuck with the same hairstyle for about a month now, with the rest of the Twitterverse now heavily invested in her journey to find a resolution. Well today, it looks like we’ve got an update.
Via Brown’s TikTok, the reportedly 40-year old Louisiana teacher apparently went to the hospital over the weekend to see what, if anything, could be done about her hair. Pictures posted on her official Instagram, which has now amassed over 600,000 followers, show Brown laying on a hospital bed with remnants of what appear to be cotton swabs still stuck to her hair, arguably implying that whatever treatment the hospital staff tried to give her unfortunately didn’t work. Speaking to Kiss 92.5 FM’s Roz & Mocha, the Brown recounted her painful experience, saying:

OMG—she’s a teacher? This idiot is in charge of young minds? L-rd help us! Why didn’t the hospital contact the manufacturers to see what solvent to use?

Yes we are not sure if she confused “Gorilla Snot” for “Gorilla Glue” but what ever the case she put Gorilla Glue, the kind in a spray can on her head.
Strange though, Gorilla Glue is NOT sold in hair care section.
In before someone drops the obligatory and overused “Play stupid games, win stupid prizes” cliché.
This fool is a 40 year old TEACHER.
Get your loved ones out of government schools now.
There is NO solvent for gorilla glue once it sets
“This fool is a 40 year old TEACHER.
Get your loved ones out of government schools now.”
I could not agree more, Metmom, homeschool ping. This fool teaches in our schools
I can’t imagine how much glue she must have used. I been in the adhesive industry for over 30 years.
Most adhesives, especially household adhesives break the bond to skin after a couple days. Natural skin oils break the bond. (It has to do with high surface energy)
I wouldn’t be surprised if she had to cut all the hair off but I’m real surprised it’s still affecting her skin.
If that is true, then I guess she will have to let it grow out so it can be cut off, for that Ayanna Presley look. I believe hair grows about 1/2" per month. Can you imagine how dirty her hair will be? Gross.
If she was stupid enough to mistake it for the Gorilla hair product she likely used a lot.
She should shave her head and start over.
