Effective and Practical Methods to Remove Hair Dye Spilled on Fabrics

Things to know about how to remove hair dyes, which are indispensable for women, especially when they are poured into the fabric.

Hair Dye Stains

Hair dyes, one of the most used methods for beauty by women, become one of the most difficult stains to remove when contaminated with fabrics. In order to look beautiful, women dye their hair in different colors, sometimes cast a shade on their hair, and sometimes they change the tones of their hair color and add a different atmosphere to themselves. Although this gives a nice appearance after the dyeing process is finished, one of the frequently encountered situations during dyeing is that these dyes pour off and flow onto the clothes.

Since hair dyes are prepared with formulas developed to be permanent, they turn into stains that are very difficult to remove when they are contaminated with a fabric other than hair. However, in some practical and effective methods, it is possible to remove hair dye stains from fabrics.

Hair dyes are in liquid form when applied, and for this reason, they often drip onto clothes when applied at home. In such cases, one of the most important factors in removing the stain is to intervene without allowing it to dry as soon as the paint is smeared. Otherwise, it may become impossible for the stain to be removed. Therefore, it is possible to save many of our clothes with early intervention. Now let's get to how we should intervene with these dyes spilled on our clothes.

Methods of Removing Hair Dye Stains From Fabric

The methods we recommend for removing these paints are methods that will give positive results when the contamination is new or applied when it is not yet fully dried. Therefore, it is recommended that you intervene immediately when such a spotting occurs.

Using Wet Wipes

Wiping the paint with a wet wipe as soon as it drips is the first intervention that can be done to prevent the formation of the stain. Wiping off the flowing paint with a wet wipe will prevent the stain from penetrating the pores of the fabric, making it easy to remove. However, there is a point to be aware of while doing this process, the wet wipe should be applied by wiping from the part where the spilled stain is less to the part where it is intense. If we do not have a wet wipe, a cloth moistened with dish soap and water can be used as an alternative.

Use of White Vinegar

After the density of the paint is taken with a wet wipe, a large amount of white vinegar and warm water are placed in a bowl and our clothes are dipped in this water. Our stained clothing should be kept in vinegar water for at least 5-6 hours. Otherwise, the stain may not be completely removed. Depending on the amount and density of the dye poured on the fabric, we may need to extend this holding time more.

Detergent Use

The fabric that has been kept in vinegar water should be taken into washing without waiting after it is removed from this water. The quality of the detergent to be used during this washing is very important. In particular, the use of detergents with stain removal properties always gives better results. Care must be taken to ensure that the washing is carried out in a washing program suitable for the type of the soiled fabric.

Use of carbonate

Carbonate, which is a useful substance in many aspects of our lives, is one of our most effective helpers in removing these stains. When we pour carbonate into the part where the hair dye flows and wait for a few minutes, the carbonate will remove the dye from the fabric and allow it to separate from its pores. After the soaking process with baking soda is finished, we will get rid of this stain completely when it is washed with a good stain remover detergent in a washing program suitable for the type of the stained fabric.
