Unstick yourself: How to get super glue out of hair

So, you’ve got super glue in your hair. Don’t despair and don’t reach for the scissors – no need to cut off your locks. Instead, follow these simple steps:

1. For smaller patches of glue near your scalp and hairline, saturate a cotton ball with acetone or nail polish remover and press it against the patch. Allow the chemical to soak into the super glue.
2. For smaller patches nearer the tips of your hair, do the same but with a cotton swab. Pull the strands of hair taught and rub the area with the saturated cotton swabs.
3. Shampoo and condition your hair. Conditioner is necessary as the acetone or nail polish remover will dry out your scalp and hair.
