What You’ll Need

To clean up the mess, you’ll need some cotton balls, rubbing alcohol/vodka, baking soda, vinegar, and a soft cloth. If your shoes are a bit more delicate, you may want to also opt for a toothbrush.

The Steps

  1. Start by mixing two parts water with one part rubbing alcohol. Dip the cotton balls in mixture and apply them over the stain.
  2. Let the cotton ball sit for around 10 minutes, then take a moist cloth to remove the excess moisture.
  3. If the stain is still visible, continue with the cleaning process. Make a paste out of baking soda and water and cover the affected area. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
  4. After 10 minutes, use a soft cloth to scrub the area gently. This should remove any remaining residue of the hairspray.
  5. To finish up the job, spray vinegar on area and let it dry.
  6. You can use a toothbrush if you’re dealing with a delicate fabric.
