How to Remove Chewing Gum From Hair
Prepare an ice sack.
Place several cubes of ice in a plastic bag or thin cloth. Seal or hold it closed.
Apply ice pack to hair.
Move the affected hair away from the scalp and press the ice against the gum for 15 to 30 minutes or until the gum freezes solid. Use a rubber glove or a dry washcloth to hold the ice compress if your hand becomes chilled.
Crack the frozen gum into pieces.
With one hand, hold the stuck section of the hair between the gum clot and the scalp, and break the frozen gum into small pieces.
Remove the gum.
Gently pull the frozen gum pieces from the hair using your other hand. If the warmth of your hand begins to melt the gum, refreeze and repeat until all the gum has been removed from the hair.
