     Location: Wisconsin | Does anyone reuse flair strips. If so what type of adhesive do you use to re stick them.  |

     Location: Oklahoma | Yes! I got the adhesive from tractor supply. I think in the cattle section and it has a cowboy on it and I got the strongest one. The trick is to spray the flair strip and let it set a few seconds and then put on the nose. I get 2-3 uses. |

This adhesive shouldn't be gummy. It's meant to pull the hair up on a show calfs legs, so it can't be super heavy/sticky otherwise that hair would fall. That being said, it's also meant to be applied in a light mist. I'm sure it could gum up if enough was applied. |

| I use glue for fake eyelashes :) if it’s safe for eyes, I figure it’s safe to use on their noses

Used lightly, this adhesive is not any stickier than the original flair strip, and does a good job of adhering. |
