Need Help From Freeper Females (vanity)
4/21/2004 | Jaysun

Posted on 04/21/2004 6:52:54 PM PDT by Jaysun

Some of the guys and I are presently at the camping lodge and we’ve got a problem that requires the help of a sensible woman. My brother-in-law managed to get something in his hair this morning, and he wanted to wash it out. I can’t tell you what that something was, because he’s refused to divulge that to us thus far (I suspect that he fabricated the “tainted hair” theory to save himself some embarrassment.)

My brother-in-law believes that his wife has, at some point, told him that peanut butter is a useful household hair cleaner / conditioner. His wife animately denied ever saying anything about peanut butter, and thinks that he must have confused it with mayonnaise. Anyway, this guy has gone from a docile gentlemen to a ranting idiot and he’s now in a state of full blown panic.

Please provide us with any suggestions that you may have for removing peanut butter from hair. If possible, we’d like to know of any “home remedies” that may work – we’re in a fairly remote location and nobody is willing to go to the store. Besides looking ridiculous, he smells horrible. Here’s what we’ve tried so far:

A) Tried to “melt” it away by pouring very hot water over his head. This basically resulted in mild burns to his neck and scalp.
B) Made a makeshift shower cap out of a Wal-Mart bag, taped it around his head to make it watertight, and poured beer in a small hole at the top. He let it soak for about an hour to no avail.

Anything that you can suggest would be most appreciated.

Jaysun

I'm at the mercy of a procrastinating oaf. Sorry. I'll try to hurry him up.

Dawn dish soap. We used it to clean up birds that got in the oil sumps.

We eventually worked it all out. Look at post # 463

Hiya Jaysun.

How are things developing, or not?

Try some jelly, a couple slices of italian bread, and a hungry 10 year old and you'll be all set.

I heard a good way to get rid of crabs which might help your pard. Shave half his head and set the other half on fire. When the critters run out of the fire, stab 'em with an ice pick!

Hello Gretchen
I've been away to Germany for a spell. I've got to get those pictures and post them on here before I'm deemed a liar by all of those wonderful people who were so willing to help us that night. God Bless.

Not bad. Not bad at all. We took care of this little problem (see post 463) but the hungry kid technique might come in handy one of these days.

We tried something similar, but not in that exact order. I'm fairly certain that we burned him at some point, and I distinctly remember trying to talk him letting me use the advanced medical equipment that I had available, (like a "biting stick" and a "hacksaw") but he wouldn't go for it. It was interesting how it all worked out. Look at post 463.

Hi Jaysun! Thanks for the update after returning from the land of most of my forebears. Looking forward (as you know!) to the photos when you can wrest them from whomever.

May his hands be as greased to released the pics as the fellow's pate was that dark and stormy night.

haven't read other replies, but for gum, freeze it with ice, then break it. Then there is shaving...

Thanks, but we solved the problem. A lot of people apparently found it quite humorous. If you'd like, read through some of the post in the beginning to get a feel for the emergency. Then go to post 463 to see how it came out.

The pictures were taken on a regular camera and aren't in my possession. I'm going to call right now to see if I can go get them.
