Not sure if it will help, but when my husband sat on some chewing gum left on a train seat while wearing his best suit, and then didn't spot it till we'd driven home in the car I got it off suit and seat with something called "sticky stuff remover" which you can get from Lakeland Plastic shops, Betterware and probably other places too. I have never tried it on hair but its a useful product to keep at home because it is good for removing stubborn marks caused by sticky labels you peel off of china and plastic etc. Might be worth a go.

Give him a "No 2 or 3" all over! It will look nice for the wedding in a month's time. Janice |
