Ds2 (7) cracked his head open last monday and the nurse very kindly managed to glue him back together! - but bless her she also managed to glue half the back of his hair too! ds2 is not happy, and is complaining that some of it is starting to pull, obviously any attempt i make to have a look pulls even more and he jumps about yelling at me, im going to have to do something, but what?? id be ever so grateful for ideas

scroll down a bit for methods/recipes people have used on kids glue caked hair.
May be worth a try?

Bribery and sweeties may help getting him to sit still long enough to soak it off whilst avoiding the wound if its not well healed up already.
Was it teh super glue type stuff? nail varnish remover is supposed to be good for that. BUT not on a wound obviously.

I don't know how to remove it but I've been told by several people that it is super glue they use so you could try searching for ideas for that.

My son had it in his hair for most of last summer. Think we cut it out in the end (gradually )

I thought it was superglue as well - in which case washing up liquid might work. Fairy, if you've got it. Rub it in neat and then wash with warm water.
