I just got out of the hospital for a 5 day seizure video monitoring stay.
The next day I was to get hooked up for the 48 hours ambilutory monitoring.
It was very, important to get the glue out of my hair the night before since the male tech put way too much in.
The night nurse and I tried all sort of things, then together we decided to try something really stinky since the other suggestions did not work.
I have very thick, course hair due to my thyroid disease and since I coulod not use conditioner it made life difficult finding a solution. And recentlycolored. My beautician said it was too soon to use things like witch hazel becuase I went to a beauty school to get my hair colored and they messed up the firdst day so I had to go back the next daY for them to put on a soap cap and recolor the hair.
Drum roll please, she put mayonaisse on my head and the glue just slid off the hair. After leaving it for about 15 minutes.
I tried it after the 48 hours ambilutory was removed it worked very well. although it did not get out every thing this time-it got out 95% of the again too much glue. I think it would have worked a 100% if I had had someone else do it for me. The nurse that did it the first time made sure to add the mayo thicker were the glue was. I could not do that since I could not see as well as she could.
It is amazing that the hospital did not have glue remover of any kind to get the glue out but the old faithful mayo worked really well for me.
The remaining glue came out with careful combing

I used acetone (nail polish remover) to take the collodion glue out, but the waxy glue came out easily...I just had to wash, rinse, and repeat!
