Until they tag you back in humiliating posts or begin talking about your life elsewhere in the comments, tagging your buddies in the comments area sounds like fun. When things get heated, you may want to leave the situation, but Facebook’s commenting mechanism prevents you from doing so. Up until the topic is complete, you are still labeled. You can stop waiting for that now. It turns out that you can now delete comment tags from Facebook, and this post will teach you how to do so.

You will be untagged from that particular comment after following these simple steps.
Facebook will discretely take your name and other information out of the comment where your buddy tagged you. You can only get rid of that by consulting your friend. Facebook’s mobile and web versions also support this technique. The same procedures work on any device to get rid of Facebook comment tags.
