Somebody stuck chewing gum on my hair (which is quite long) yesterday. Was able to remove the majoriity of it by applying oil. Any ideas how could I remove all of it?

Peanut butter, I think part of the reason it works is the oil. I just remember Mom saying that it was the only way when I got bubble gum in my hair or if I got it in my sister's hair.

Try using peanut butter! It works really well on soft gum. Use about the same amount of peanut butter equal to the amount of gum in your hair. With your fingers, massage the gum spot and let it break down the peanut butter for about 20 minutes, then use a fine toothed comb to break it up. Repeat the first step if necessary, apply dab of shampoo to that area and wash away the gum and peanut butter. Please do not use peanut butter if you have peanut allergies!

Peanut butter,Goo Gone,ice. If you keep doing it and there is no way you can get it out,get a hair cutting razor to cut the pieces out,don't use scissors,use the razor very carfully and the hairs should just blend in,scissors will make it look chopped. I really hope it doesn't come down to you having to cut it though,only use that as a last resort. I would keep using the peanut butter and ice or whatever else that has oil in it for days if I had to. Good luck

DEAR DO NOT USE PEANUT BUTTER IT WILL NOT HELP AT ALL.
The best and safe way is to use ice cubes, just rub ice on the gum where it got stuck it will become loose from hair, will come out easily.

Cut off your hair. I have been subjected to the same treatment a lot of times by my friends.

the best way of removing chewing gums is by holding it with a piece of ice, which'll make it get to hard, to either take off as pieces with out that long sticky thing...((hheheh)), or for the cheap gums, they sometimes break....
;)...don't allow your friends to do such things.....
