Dyeing your hair at home is quick and easy to do but staining the skin from hair dye can be frustrating. Hate scrubbing until your skin is all red and irritated? Follow these quick and easy unbeleivable steps to remove hair dye from the skin.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Cigarette ashes

  1. Step 1

    My mother use to dye her hair blue-black and dyed part of her neck, her ear, etc.. so I dedicate this to her.

    I learned this from a good friend in beauty school. Simply take cooled cigarette ashes and rub them on your thumb and forefinger right from an ashtray.

    Apply to where the stained skin is by rubbing the ashes gently over the dried hair dye.

    Now wash the area with warm water and your choice of bar soap, rinse well.

Tips & Warnings
  • Be sure the hair dye is dry before applying the ashes
  • Apply the cooled ashes generously
