The plastic surgeon who freed the locks of “Gorilla Glue girl” Tessica Brown’s locks hopes his “magic solution” could succeed – and is “in talks” to make it commercially available.
Dr. Michael Obeng, 47, told TMZ that the number of requests for surgery at his Beverly Hills company has seen a “hundredfold increase” since rescuing the Louisiana mother’s hair, who had been trapped for over a month while using Gorilla Glue after she ran out. of her usual spray.
He has also been approached by companies hoping to produce the secret formula he devised to successfully remove the tight gunk.
“We’ve had a lot of questions,” he said of his “magic solution”.
“We’re in talks … to go commercial and make it available to people who have had Crazy Glue, Gorilla Glue, or any other type of glue that doesn’t dissolve easily,” he told the outlet.
Even if those plans don’t add up, Obeng said things are on the rise for his regular surgical work.
“We’ve had more than 5,000 questions from patients in the last 4 days … we’re not even equipped to endure that many people,” he said.
He’s not alone in hoping to take advantage of the dire situation.
Mum of five Brown, 40, already has her own merchandise line and has hired a full celebrity management team to make the most of her viral shame.
Her original TikTok clip about her hair disaster – in which she admitted that using the glue was a ‘bad, bad, bad idea ”- was seen more than 36 million times on Wednesday.
