Revisited: How to Remove Hair Dye Stains From Skin
We received a lot of response in regards to a previous post that delved into how to remove dye once it’s come into contact with skin. If you have ever experienced or encountered this situation you already know that it is not any fun. You can rinse yourself silly and the hair dye will remain right where it’s landed.
Last time, we had mentioned that using toothpaste can help to resolve this hair color issue. If you do decide to take the toothpaste route make sure that you are using a non-gel form. Nevertheless, we mentioned that this topic is being revisited, so what new light can be shed on this topic?
Recently, we did a little testing with the baking soda method. We had heard about it through a hair care professional but was still skeptical. Therefore, we decided to do a quick experiment to put our skepticism to rest once and for all.
During our experiment we focused on removing hair color stains that had attached themselves around the hairline as if you had forgot to apply Vaseline in order to stop the dye from running. We combined baking soda and dish detergent and stirred until the two ingredients formed a paste. The paste was then vigorously brushed onto the hair color skin stains using a toothbrush.
What was the results of the baking soda method? The hair color stains were removed proving that this hair fix truly is effective. The skin was left clean appearing as though no stain had been there before. Now we will say that we had to seriously put some elbow into it but the baking soda & dish detergent did their jobs.

How to Fix Hair Product Build-Up
Hair Quickie: Remember, not all hair is created equally, so what works for one person may not work for someone else. There are some that can pile on product after product and they will not experience any real build-up or backlash. Build-up can occur from the use of gels, hairspray, pomades and even conditioners. Nevertheless, if you notice that products seem to build up on top of the hair there is a easy solution. Try mixing 1 tablespoon baking soda with your regular shampoo once a week. Wash hair like normal then rinse out the concoction and dry strands as usual.
