Velcro is a great way to get wigs to stay on a doll (especially on inflatababes). However is there a version that has nothing on the back? No sticky stuff, no plastic coating, just fabric. Because their adhesive does not stick to silicone and silicone adhesive does not stick to their plastic coating or adhesive!

Exactly! I have been using velcro for the past few years with great success........

Yes there is you can get it at a craft store, that's what I used with my Mia's wig and a hot glue gun.

I've been attempting to do this too on my inflatable. I need to find a non-permanent way of sticking the Velcro that would stay on. I'm asking for too much i know :/

Thank you so much. Is there a special name on the box I should look for? Velcro packaging doesn't always say much about the product's backside.

I asked a clerk where there Velcro was and they showed me where it was. Here's a picture of what I got to use on Mia's wigs.

The package will say either sew-on or non-adhesive, and it usually comes in strips rather than squares or dots.

I don't remember what the package said.
