How do you get nail polish out of hair?

Answer

You could try using baby oil and see if the dried polish will slide out - like you would to remove gum. Using ice might work, too.

Or a non-acetone nail polish remover if all else fails.

Once the nail polish has dried it actually shouldn't be too difficult to remove - in fact, unless it is a big knotted up mess, you *might* be able to slide it from the hair without using oil or chemicals.
