I was wondering if it's possible to hot glue the foam persicom ears I made to my Volks Chii or will it ruin her head?

Currently the persicom ears are applied on a little headband under her wig but they don't fit snuggly over her original ears.

Also is it normal for the wig stoppers to stop working after a while?
Is there some kind of glue I could use instead?

Thank you in advance for your patience!

Is the Volks head soft plastic?  If so, then I wouldn't recommend using hot glue.  I imagine even low-temp hot glue would melt the plastic.   You could try craft glue (like Aleene's Tacky Glue), which would probably peel off if you wanted to remove it.  Or, for a completely non-permanent solution, you could try magnets.  Of course, that would require you to remove her head to glue one set of magnets inside.  Hmmm...........  Maybe that wouldn't be very easy to do.  Give the craft glue a try.

Craft glue would also work for your wig problem.   I think I have read about the wig stoppers losing grip after a period of time.  Is it made of silicon?  If it is, try giving it a good cleaning and air dry.  Silicon can acquire a buildup of gunk because things like to stick to it (hence its suitability as a wig stopper).

Depends on the wig stopper you use. I used velcro, which didn't work at all, pretty much. Just kept getting tangled in the hair. Then I used Blu-Tac which also didn't work for me, also kept getting tangled in the hairs. Is it a silicone wig stopper? Like Poohki said, it might be buildup of gunk.

The biggest piece of advice I can give you, re: glue is that whatever you use make sure it's washable in water. It can and will inevitably get stuck to some hairs on the wig, and if it is not washable it can ruin a wig. Also, harsh glues like superglue can melt plastic, so don't use those. I used to use tacky glue, but I found the hold was too weak. I've since upgraded to an all purpose fabric craft glue that is water soluble. It dries very quickly, so I tend to hold it there until it grips a little, then put a hat/elastic on them and leave it overnight.

This morning I worked on my Volks Chii.

I tried using hot glue for both wig + persicom ears but it didn't work (apparently it doesn't stick to Soft Vinyl) so I had to resort to Super Glue even though PrincessD adviced against it 
Here's keeping my fingers crossed it won't ruin her head!
I'll keep you posted.

But oh she looks better (at least to me) & it's such a relief not to have to worry about her wig coming off.
Btw I glued the velcro to her scalp, I figured it was wiser than gluing the whole wig to it.

Thanks to Poohki & Princess D for their replies!

Note: my Chii is a Volks Dollfie (27cm), the body is made with durable plastic & the head is made of Soft Vinyl , I used regular craft foam for her persicom ears.
I think next time I'll try to use all purpose craft glue
