The GoFundMe account set up by the ‘Gorilla Glue Girl’ has made a massive gain of $21,000 recently.
According to media reports, Tessica Brown set up the account with the intention of raising enough funds to help seek professional help. But she never imagined that people would be so kind enough to actually donate so much. Moreover, she is extremely happy about the kind gesture.
Recently, Tessica went viral after using Gorilla Glue adhesive to fix her hair into place. Forgetting about the consequences attached to her actions, she went ahead.
But soon, she dreaded the mistake when the glue refused to come out. From day one to day 30, Tessica tried all hacks to help rid the strong chemical. This includes countless shampoo washes and products containing olive oil and tea tree oil.
Throughout the process, she documented every single day of her agony and posted the updates to followers on TikTok. And that’s how she turned into a viral sensation.
A few days back, the 40-year-old woman made the news again when she chopped off her ponytail but even that didn’t work. In the end, she had to seek professional help from a surgeon. And for that, she traveled to Los Angeles’s, after a God-gifted surgeon offered his expertise for free.
Doctor Michael Obeng and his professional team of experts performed a 4-hour long surgery where they used a number of things to remove the adhesive from her hair. This includes a mix comprising of medically acceptable adhesive remover, aloe vera, olive oil, and acetone.
In the end, the woman dubbed as the Gorilla Glue Girl walked out of the OPD, after her anesthesia wore off. She was beaming with confidence, running hands through her glue-free short hair. Moreover, she even broke down into tears, glad to be free from the agony that enveloped her life, in more ways than one.
Reports confirmed how Dr. Michael Obeng performed the surgery, free of cost. Originally, procedures like these surmount to charges that range around the figures of $12,500.
Today, Tessica Brown is happy as can be and is warning others how Gorilla Glue is definitely not for you!
