i've done this on other vehicles and have learnt that it's pretty much best to virtually remove the entire headliner, or at least detach it enough so that access to the entire back surface is available (unless the rest is holding well).
then one uses a good spray-on adhesive over the entire area, both fabric and ceiling, and then work the fabric back into place.

some advice from a pro would never be a waste of time though!
