I was in the same exact predicament just a few hours ago. I had just dyed my hair dark brown and it got on my cabinets. It had stained really badly and it was very noticeable. All I did was take an old fingernail file and file the spot, then I wiped over it with a wet cloth and it was as good as new (:This method is very good on stains that have been very set in. Hope this helps. ^.^
You just saved my life! I got black hair dye all over my mother in laws hard wood floor in the bathroom. Was freaking out until I read this. I used a good sized foot file and it came right off. Then I used some liquid gold to moisten the dry spot where I filed!
Brilliant! I tried every other suggestion I found online and it didn't work, but this worked brilliantly.
Hello! I feel like a just created actual magic!!! Blue dye that was somewhere on the towel that i had under my coloring area in the bathroom, got moved to the unfinished hardwood floors!!!
** Magic RECIPE: bleach spray(bathroom type), baking soda to cover stain, and then alcohol on top.
I suppose i dont know what specifically brought it up, but i ran a clean cloth over the pile and MAGIC it was gone!!
Also did this again the next day, after i swept and discovered another blue hair dye speckle.
Magic i say! I am amazed, thought i would be ripping up the unfinished hardwood floor!
You did create magic! I used the bathroom bleach spray and rubbing alcohol on top of baking soda which was on top of the red hair dye stain on a painted metal surface. It took off the dye! I had tried all three before on the stain and individually, none of them removed the stain, but all three combined...REMOVED THE DANG STAIN!
Thank you a million times over....your recipe worked!!!
I tried peroxide and baking sofa paste on brown hair dye that splashed on a hollow wood door . It didn't work. Then I tried to lightly sand the hair dye off . All that did was ruin the door by taking the finish off down to the flake board. But , on another splashed area , I brushed on clear varnish, waited a few seconds and lightly sanded. It worked. Now , how do I make the other area match?
what are proportion of bleach baking soda and alchol?
Wow!! Thank you so much this just saved my BRAND NEW furniture.
Worked great!
The nail file just saved my life! Black hairdye on my mothers good floor! It's now gone thank you!
I just tried the nail file suggestion on my parents' wood cabinet sink after slopping ammonia based Loreal dark brown dye on it hours ago and just noticing it. It worked! I couldn't believe it! THANK YOU!
I used a brillo pad with dawn dish soap on it, wet of course...it worked!!!!
I accidentally spilt some black hair dye on our cherrywood finished cabinet. Wiped it off right away but still have a big stain.
I dripped hair color on my white maple cabinet. After trying hair color remover and a stain remover, which did nothing. I tried the Mr. Clean magic eraser and it worked like a charm. No mess, no fuss. It took about 2 seconds. Thank you so much for your advice.
