peanut butter for face
put some kind of oil in hair then wash with prell shampoo or dawn dish soap but prell works best.
that even gets nail polish out of hair my baby dumped np on his head before.or you can call hair salons they'll tell you.

My 5 year old son is the gum king!! Trust me on this -
Get a handful of peanut butter and rub it all over the gum. A lot of it then work it into the gum with the your fingers and slide it out of the hair. Then rinse it off in the sink or shower.
I have done this too many times to count!! LOL
Ahhhh BOYS!!!!

"A majority of gum on skin can be gotten off with your own wad. Gum would rather stick to itself than your skin, so pressing or rolling it over sticky areas will get most of it off.

Stubborn messes or pops involving hair can be much trickier. Fingernails or a comb may work for the more mild problems, but not for them all. You could try oils like vegetable oil or peanut butter. These have moderate success."

Good luck!

put peanut butter on the gum let it sit on there for a few minutes and it should wash off, gum and all. It worked with my son when his face was covered with gum.
