Question

i just dyed my hair black and...when i did it i didnt realize i got some on my forehead.....and now i cant wash it off OMGGG is there anyway to remove it? now theres like a lump of black dye on my forehead

Answer 1

The best answer so far is the one who said use the alpha-hydroxy product. Or - glycolic. These are skin exfoliants. Hair color remover ain't gonna cut it because it's black and black is the worst- but the good news is, it will be gone by NYE because your skin cells will shed that fast if you use anything safe to clean it. Next time, use some Vaseline around your hairline to block the stain.

Answer 2

The best thing to do is visit your nearby beauty supply store and look in the color aisle for “haircolor stain remover”. Most of the major haircolor makers have their own brand of stain remover, and each works as well as the others. Most of them can be used without fear of hurting the color of your hair (for stains at the hairline). These are great, especially for women and men who have their eyebrows colored to match their hair for a natural look. They can simply apply the color to the brows, and remove any stain afterward without stripping off the color.

If visiting a beauty supply store is not an option, you can use hydrogen peroxide found in any supermarket’s first aid supplies section (or at a pharmacy). You should be careful with the hydrogen peroxide, though. If you get the peroxide onto the colored hair, it will fade the color. Most hydrogen peroxide solutions available for first aid use are very mild (2% peroxide by volume) and the lightening of the stain will be gradual.

There’s also good old fashioned perseverance and elbow grease. Because the haircolor stains the surface of the skin, using a soft cloth and mild cleanser to wash the area repeatedly will buff away the stained skin cells. You may not be able to immediately remove the stain, but it will be lessened and will eventually be removed.

Finally, for extreme staining on areas like hands and arms, you can use chlorine bleach. However, be advised that chlorine bleach is very harsh (obviously) and can damage the skin if left on too long. Swab the stains with the bleach and allow them to be lightened, then immediately rinse the area with cold water and follow up by washing the area with soap and water. Apply moisturizer to the skin to restore the moisture and minimize any damage.

I've also heard that rubbing ashes on them works. Not sure why.

There are several ways to get rid of dye stains on the skin:
1. You can simply try antibacterial soap, using water as hot as you can stand.
2. Rub vaseline on stain and leave on over night stain should be gone by morning.
3. Rub baby oil on stain and leave on over night stain should be gone by morning.
4. Normal everyday facial cleansers such as Noxema or so.
5. Sounds funny but oddly true, If you happen to have ashes from a cigarrette you wet your finger, or cloth, rub it into the ashes and rub on the stain.
6. Toothpaste
7. Cotton ball soaked with milk.
The next methods I will list: I DON'T RECOMMEND, but if all else fails these should work:
nail polish remover, hydrogen peroxide & comet. Now if you choose to use any of these methods, then ensure you clean and rinse thoroughly!

Next time you dye your hair, use cotton roll to put around your fore head, ears, and the back of your neck. Apply vaseline or lotion where the hair and cotton ball roll meets.
