How to Get Hair Dye off of Skin

RE: How to Get Hair Dye off of Skin Post By Samantha Marrero (Guest Post) (07/23/2008) Cigeratte ashes with a little water. I just had to use it. Took it right off.

Be careful not to rub to hard, gentle circular movements with the towel doused in surgical spirit! You only need to scrub when you are washing off the surgical spirit, use a gentle & mild shower gel with aloe vera or vitamin e. This process should hopefully remove all the dye.

I used the dye on a washcloth and scrubbed, then rinsed with water, then just washed with normal bath soap. I had it everywhere, all down my back my arms my ears and scalp. and using the dye didnt dye anymore of my hair than i wanted it too, make sure you rinse immediatly.

I tried pretty much everything including nail polish remover, 10-0-6 (if you know what that is) toothpaste, vinegar, rubbing alcohol, peroxide, Jack Daniels, hairspray, cold cream, vegetable shortening and plain old scrubbing with soap and water and after all that, I'm pretty sure nothing worked. but it came off, and I'm guessing just from scrubbing the freaking skin off. It didn't help but I just thought I'd share. =] Report Spam or Abuse RE: How to Get Hair Dye off of Skin Post By Sharon (Guest Post) (07/13/2008) lol - Thank God for all of you! I almost had to call in sick to work tomorrow because I couldn't get the dye off. While I didn't have any vodka (and I did consider rum but nixed that idea) I went for the vinegar first which took most off then I tried the hairspray which helped a little more. I went back to the vinegar and kept at it with a cotton ball soaked in it. It's pretty much all gone now...except I have this incredible urge for pickles now :) Report Spam or Abuse RE: How to Get Hair Dye off of Skin Post By Monika (Guest Post) (07/10/2008) I noticed most of these are helpful if you use them almost immediately. If however you end up giving up and going to sleep and then trying again in the morning, pure vodka is perfect - this page was very helpful, but I was drawn to vodka right away, and it doesn't burn, it doesn't smell, and it calms your nerves about leaving the house with hair that's a little bit darker than you would have hoped...

What I found works is using a soap or a face scrub that will DRY your skin out. It may take a few tries of putting it on and letting your skin flake. But eventually it will keep taking the dry skin off till you have no more dye. Remember, the dye is only on the top layer of skin, so no need to scrub that hard. Let the dryness and washing lightly do the work.

For me the baking soda worked (thick paste). Report Spam or Abuse RE: How to Get Hair Dye off of Skin Post By Krysten (Guest Post) (03/04/2008) I didnt try anything except for diluted bleach. Some people on here said it hurt.. It really doesn't and it works like magic. Put about 1 parts bleach to 8 parts water and scrub. The only way it will end up hurting is if you scrub to hard and you shouldnt have to scrub that hard. It works really easily.

I used whitening toothpaste and left it on the stained area for 10-15 mins. and it rubbed right off. just toothpaste, no ashes, no baking soda, nothing else. It works, but you have to give it time!

Water is the worst thing. Just simply use shampoo and it comes right off.

Hello, Hard labor :( lol Report Spam or Abuse RE: How to Get Hair Dye off of Skin Post By tami (Guest Post) (02/21/2008) I died my hair jet black last night and I had stains all over my forehead my neck hands under my nails and on my wrists. I read this and tried a few but they didn't work so I decided to try anything and mix stuff together. I put shampoo tooth paste and lemon juice fully mixed it together. It doesn't work straight away but you need to let it soak for a bit and it comes off. I had to do it a few times and it worked. By the way if you put vaseline on your skin. It causes pimples to break out. Report Spam or Abuse RE: How to Get Hair Dye off of Skin Post By Tati Lati (Guest Post) (02/21/2008) Toothpaste did not work, don't try it. I'm too scared to try bleach, I'd rather not bleed and peel my skin off. Report Spam or Abuse RE: How to Get Hair Dye off of Skin Post By Brandi (Guest Post) (02/20/2008) Wow. I actually had my boyfriend dye my hair black and I used the whole toothpaste thing for removing the color, even though I was thinking to myself how crazy is this but to my surprise it worked! Thanks a bunch!
