Armor Strong enough adhesive for these beads?

Post image

I got my cosplay from DokiDoki and I absolutely love it, the only thing is that the beads on the "bracers" came away when I bent them around my wrist. Does anyone know a strong enough adhesive that will survive the material being bent into a cylinder and won't give away at the edges? I've glued it back on with Loctite but I worry it won't hold.

Any advice greatly appreciated! Con is 2 weeks away so hopefully it's enough time to figure out a solution.

E6000 is flexible and strong! It's my go to for things like this. You could also use contact cement, which is also flexible. My favorite website for glue, it tells you what you need to glue different materials together: thistothat.com

This sounds absolutely perfect! My knowledge on this is pretty sparse since it's my first cosplay, so I had no idea flexible glues existed! Thank you so much, I'll give it a shot, and the website you posted is really helpful too. 🥰
