The most important thing to do when removing eye shadow stains from your hair ties is to first gather all the supplies you need. You’ll need a sink filled with lukewarm water, some laundry detergent or dish soap, and a toothbrush with soft bristles.
Once you’ve gathered all your supplies, you’ll want to make a soapy solution by mixing your laundry detergent or dish soap into the lukewarm water. Make sure to mix it well so that the mixture becomes nice and frothy.
Next, you’ll want to soak your hair tie in soapy solution for about 10-15 minutes. This will give the soap time to break down the eye shadow and make it easier to remove.
After the hair tie has had some time to soak, it’s time to gently scrub the stained area with the toothbrush. Use gentle, circular motions to help remove the eye shadow without damaging the fabric of the hair tie.
Lastly, rinse the stained area with lukewarm water, then lay the hair tie out to dry. Once it's completely dry, your hair tie should be free of any eye shadow stains.
Now that you know how to easily and safely remove eye shadow stains from your hair ties, you no longer have to worry about unsightly stains ruining your look. With these five simple steps, you can say goodbye to stained hair ties and hello to looking good!
