I have been tying for well over 40 years and learned about super glue about 20 years ago. After tying on the feathers/hair/flash etc., but before any head cement, put on a drop or 2 of super glue (saturate the head) and let it dry. After that you can apply any type of epoxy or high build head cemant. The super glue will hold every thing together and the head cement will make it look pretty. Generally the feathers/hair breaks off rather than pulls out when you use superglue.
