Just when you thought you’d seen every possible baby-related product on the planet comes Girlie Glue - an adhesive designed to stick bows and hair accessories to a baby’s head.

Some babies are born with a full head of thick hair, others are bald for the first few months of their lives. And if you’re a mum who’s been itching to put accessories in your bub’s hair, it can be frustrating! So one mum decided to come up with a solution – and it has opinions divided!

Katie Hydrick came up with the idea of Girlie Glue after she ‘got tired of slippery uncomfortable headbands and bows’. She says her babies didn’t have enough hair for clips but still wanted to use cute accessories. So she went to her kitchen and whipped up a batch of what would become Girlie Glue, so she could stick bows to her babies’ heads.

Girlie Glue is made using natural ingredients including Agave nectar, and claims to be safe for skin and hair. Just pop a dab on a hair accessory, put it in place, and when you want to take it off, it washes away with water.

While Girlie Glue has been around for some time (and caused a stir when it was first launched), it was recently thrust back into the spotlight after a mum shared a video of how she uses it on her daughters, and it went viral.

“After trying headband bows on my babies I realised quickly that they either pull them off or I have to constantly adjust them. That’s when I started using Girlie Glue!” Amy Lynette shared.

The negative comments came flooding in, with other parents furious that the product exists.

“How ridiculous. Your babies don’t need sh*t glued to their head to signal what genitals they have,” one person commented.

Another said: “Is this a f**king joke? We are sticking things to our babies heads now to affirm their gender? As if those bow headbands aren’t stupid enough, we’ve graduated to gluing things? This is some dumb bs. I know it’s not harmful ingredients but thats not the point.”

“Imagine not being able to wait for your kid to have hair long enough to style so you just start gluing shit to them,” commented another person.

Amy addressed the comments, saying: “I’m not sure why this is making people so upset. It is corn syrup, agave nectar, and sugar. So similar to what our moms used in the 80s and 90s. If you didn’t grow up with that, you might think it’s odd but let’s not bash a great product that a lot of people love.”

The product is also marketed at anyone wanting to attach accessories to their children’s hair for crazy hair day … and even their pets!
