Electrical tape to hold them together would probably be a good idea.

^^^^This (mostly)^^^^
We crimp our own PWM cables so we can make them custom length, so using the same connector just made sense to us. Rather than use a straight header in between two female PWM connectors though, just make one of them male. Then they can just plug into a chain, making sure you match up the colors. You can also stick a zip tie in the middle to hold the connection secure.
