If it so happens that you or your child have gum tangled in their hair, don’t rush to grab the scissors.
Instead, try to eliminate the problem using products that you probably already have in your home.
1. Vinegar
The acid in the vinegar will soften the gum, making it easier to remove from your hair.
Soak the area where the gum is with vinegar and wait a few minutes until it becomes softer and more pliable.
After this, try to comb out the remaining sticky substance using a comb.
2. Oil
For this option you will need cotton swabs and vegetable fat.
Soak cotton wool in oil and blot the gum with it, after which you will notice that it has become more flexible. Now you can carefully remove the chewing gum.
Once the unfortunate misunderstanding is over, don't forget to wash your hair.
