You will need just 80 grams of peanut butter for this purpose not more than that. You must always try buying the oily ones and avoid buying the crunchy ones as they have lesser content of oil in them and so will not work that effectively.

Step 2

After you have purchased the peanut butter, take it out in a plate and apply it over the affected area, to get the gum out of hair. You can apply this using a toothbrush or even a paint brush; whichever you think is better. Avoid using your fingers for the application of peanut butter as this would only make your task a little untidy and will also not be applied as good as you can with the help of a brush.

Step 3

Once you have applied the peanut butter on the affected area you need to spread over the entire effected region. You need to try dissolving the gum in the oil as this is the main purpose and this will help in getting the gum out of hair. You can do this mixing with the help of a comb or with the back side of a toothbrush.

Step 4

Now that you have done this step you need to take a dry towel and use it to pull the peanut butter out of your hair. This is when the peanut butter comes out of hair along with the gum.

Step 5

Now that you have the gum out of hair you can wash your hair with a good shampoo. Wash your hair thoroughly and rinse it for a few times until you are sure that the peanut butter and the gum are completely out of your hair. You can throw the towel away once you are done or wash it and keep it.
