how to get the glue out of your hair

Mon, 12/12/2005 - 22:30
As a hairdresser for 20 something years i learned a trick or to. To help you remove the glue from your hair after an E.E.G try this 5 to 7 asprin crushed Half a cup hot water dissolve asprin in water, 2 good size squirts of shampoo, 4 tablespoons whitch hazel or seabreeze mix well all together. Massage thru wet hair and let sit for about 15 to 20 minutes. You can comb thru after alotted time has passed. Rinse and shampoo and condition as usual. Can be repeated if needed. This can also be done once a month to remove traces of medications from your hair.DO NOT NOT GET IN EYES!! and I would not use on childern under 10.

I have tried just slathering conditioner in the hair, wrap hair in towel and let it sit for a while before washing.. That's worked too but will certainly try this one!

I had a 3 day study done, so this stuff was really on there...(sores broke out for some reason)& my hair is thick. When I got home I was in tears, I thought I would NEVER get it out!! Having a loving husband :) & daughter :) that put conditioner on the sites,wrapped my head in a towel for a while & washed. Some came out, but not much, so we sprayed Ausy 3 minute Miracle Detangler, re-applied the conditioner & worked on it with a small toothed-comb. Kind of like you would if it were Lice. I heard Mayo works,too, but I didn't want to try it unless I REALLY had to!! Good luck!
