To pre-treat the stain, mix one teaspoon of liquid laundry detergent with two cups of lukewarm water in a bowl. Submerge the stained hair tie in mixture, and let it soak for five minutes before taking it out and rinsing it lightly with cold water.
Then place the affected hair tie in the washing machine. Add the same amount of detergent that you use when washing a regular load of laundry, and set the machine to a normal cycle with warm water. Once the cycle has completed, remove the hair tie and allow it to air dry.
If any stubborn stains remain after washing, make a paste out of baking soda and water, and apply it to stained area. Let it sit for 15 minutes, and then rinse with cold water. Repeat this process until the stain is completely gone.
By following these three simple steps, you can easily remove coffee and tea stains from your hair ties in no time!
