how do you get chewing gum out of a teenagers long hair when its right at the front and close to the scalp?

Answer 1

Have you tried using ice? I have always heard that it works. If you take the ice and "freeze" the gum then its easier to get out of the hair. It should just pull out.

Answer 2

Ice it first. I never saw peanut butter work very well but also if icing doesn't get most of it out...start looking at what you can do with actually pulling most out and then snipping the rest. Another option is call your local beautician and take him/ her in there! If it's really going to hack the hair right in front, leave it to a professional. Good luck!

Answer 3

Oh Noooo not another one !!!

apply ice for ten mins ( on gummed up area)
small bag of frozen peas is good

Chewing gum hardens with cold

Next comb out quickly and gently .

Should work first time
If need be ,repeat .

all best


>^,,^<

Pea's for lunch again !!!

Answer 4

Rub peanut butter or cooking oil into the gum, it will break it down into grainy bits that can be pulled gently or combed out

Answer 5

As weird as it sounds try Ice & peanut butter together...The ice freezes the gum & the peanut butter helps loosin it out to take out. strange brew but with the combination of the two & patience does work.

Answer 6

Rub it out with peanutbutter! The oils separate the gum from the hair shafts.

Answer 7

Why not use patrol and apply on your hair the gum would come out in no time

Answer 8

Cut his hair.

BUT

Only cut as close to the gum as possible, that way you will only lose a small amount of hair.

Answer 9

Some frapped ice and mix with peanuts butter , if doesn´t work think in a new hair cut!

Answer 10

i little WD40
it will get under the gum so u can peel it off
then shampoo
WD 40 is only made from fish oil no petro so it is safe to use just be careful of the eyes (no harm just not a good idea to get it in your eye)
