Stain removal.. root touch up spray on brand new jumpsuit!!

6 replies

Hey all... first world problem I know, so I dyed my hair two weeks ago and already some greys are peeking through so today I opened a brand new Loreal root touch up spray from Amazon, sprayed it on my hair and as well as spraying on my hair tons of it dripped out all over my brand new jumpsuit worn for the first time. The spray was clearly faulty but that's beside the point really.

Any tips on how to remove hair dye from clothing?? It's not permanent hair dye, I have tried vanish in a 40 degree wash and it's not budged... trying a 60 degree wash now but I imagine it still wont budge. I know it's probably a write off (typically Zara have now put it in the special buys at £16 but it's sold out so can't even replace it!!) but I may as well make a few last attempts before I give up. It's polyester so can't dye it either.

It's dots of hair dye so not a huge area... any tips appreciated!!

Dye it in a same shade?

Can you dye polyester? I had it in my head that you can't. Would love to dye it black though!

Generally you're better washing stains in cold water, hot water can set them! If you've done a 40 and 60 wash I'm not sure how you'll get it out ☹️

You could try rubbing alcohol based hand sanitiser into the stain for half an hour and then wash on a cool setting

Oops on the hot wash Blush. I have rubbing alcohol so could try that...

Test it on the inside of the hem first, it could strip out too much and leave a bleach stain.
