Help! Gum is all over DS's hair!

[daisy1234]

Hi...DS just got gum in his hair...I tried ice cubes but it is not working! So frustrating! Anyway is there any easy way to get in out other than taking him to the barber shop to get a buzz cut?????

You can try to rub in creamy peanut butter (unless he has a peanut allergy) or some kind of cooking oil. It is supposed to do the trick.

Good luck

rubbing alcohol sort of works, although not completely.
good luck.

This is a sure fire fix! I had long hair as a child and was always stealing my big sister's chewing gum and falling asleep with it in my mouth. We went through a LOT of peanut butter in my house!

Yep, peanut butter does the trick!

Goo Be Gone works really well on getting gum out of other things. I've never tried it on hair though. Good luck!
