Bride Superglues Her Ears for Wedding Day: Why This Should Never Be Necessary Again

In 2022, a viral story made headlines when a bride had her ears superglued to her head on her wedding day so they would sit flatter under her hairstyle.

The hairstylist involved shared the moment online as a quick fix, but the reaction was immediate. Medical professionals and skin experts raised serious concerns about the risks of using industrial adhesives on sensitive skin, especially around the ears.

What was meant to be a beauty solution highlighted a much bigger issue.

Why Super Glue Is a Serious Risk for Skin

Super glue, also known as cyanoacrylate, was designed to bond materials like plastic, metal, and wood, not human skin.

When applied behind the ears, it can cause burns and irritation, trigger allergic reactions, become rigid and crack with movement, tear skin during removal, and lead to long-term sensitivity with repeated use. Despite these risks, people continue to resort to unsafe DIY solutions because, until recently, there was no safe, non-surgical alternative designed specifically for this purpose.

Why People Felt They Had No Choice

For those who feel self-conscious about prominent ears, the available options have traditionally been limited.

Surgical otoplasty is invasive, permanent, and expensive. Tapes and stickers often flatten the ear unnaturally and fail to hold throughout the day. Devices and clips can be bulky, visible, and uncomfortable.

So when a major life moment like a wedding comes along, some people feel pressured to make it work, even if that means risking their skin.

The Safer Alternative That Now Exists

This gap is exactly why Earswrap was created.

Earswrap is a skin-safe adhesive developed specifically for ear correction. It is not a household glue, not tape, and not a rigid device.

Unlike super glue, Earswrap is formulated for skin contact, flexible and breathable, designed for prolonged wear, removable without damaging skin, and invisible once applied. It uses a solo-adhesive wrapping method that gently guides the ear into a more natural position without flattening, forcing, or harming the skin.

Weddings, Photos, and Everyday Confidence Without Risk

No one should have to glue their ears to their head to feel confident on an important day.

Whether it is a wedding, a photoshoot, a special event, or everyday life, there is now a safer option, one that was designed specifically for this purpose.

Why This Matters

The viral wedding story should not be remembered as a beauty hack. It should be remembered as the moment people realised a safe solution was missing.

With Earswrap, unsafe DIY fixes like super glue are no longer necessary.

Confidence should never come at the cost of your skin.
