Coconut Oil for Gum in Hair
Terese (Cedar Rapids, Iowa) on 05/18/2008:
My son woke up with gum in his hair. I put extra virgin coconut oil in his hair, massaged it, and in less than 5 minutes the clump had gotten all gooey and soft and I was able to comb it out. For bigger hunks I would say let it sit for 10-15 minutes. It worked like magic!
