Gorilla Grip has been just as shocked and surprised as the rest of the world over the case of Tessica Brown.

Ms Brown admitted herself to the St. Bernard Parish Hospital in Chalmette, Louisiana, after she used the superglue spray to keep her hair down.

She didn't realise the product was that good and she's spent the last month trying to extricate the product using coconut oil and tea tree oil.

The company has been made aware of her plight and says it is very sorry to hear about the incident.

"We are very sorry to hear about the unfortunate incident that Miss Brown experienced using our Spray Adhesive on her hair," the company wrote on Twitter.

"We are glad to see in her recent video that Miss Brown has received medical treatment from her local medical facility and wish her the best."

According to Tessica, she can't wash out the glue - nor can she even shave her head as the hair is so tight against her scalp.

Tessica told her followers how she originally got herself in this situation, explaining: "When I do my hair, I like to finish it off with a little Göt2b Glued Spray, you know, just to keep it in place.

"Well, I didn't have any more Göt2b Glued Spray, so I used this: Gorilla Glue spray. Bad, bad, bad idea. My hair, it don't move. You hear what I'm telling you? It. Don't. Move."

In her initial video, which has been viewed over 15 million times, Tessica says: "Hey, y'all. For those of you that know me know that my hair has been like this for about a month now. It's not by choice. No, it's not by choice."

At one point in the clip, she pats her head to enable viewers to get more of an insight into what the glue product has left her with - essentially a helmet made of hair and adhesive.

After going viral for her hair-related woes, Tessica has now set up a GoFundMe campaign to help raise money for herself.

And it seems many people are eager to help Tessica in her plight, with a total of $7,373 raised in under 24 hours - easily smashing the original $1,500 target.

She's even had support from Chance the Rapper, who tweeted: "I'm glad mfs actually supporting her thru this. When I watched the video the second time it was hard to laugh cause I could tell shorty genuinely didn't know she had put one of the worlds most powerful adhesives in her s***. I hope she recovers well."
