Start by checking the care instructions tag inside your blazer. Look for any special instructions regarding cleaning that may pertain to your fabric. Once you’ve done this, you can move on to the cleaning process.

Using Liquids

For tougher stains, you’ll need an appropriate cleaning liquid. To make sure you use right product, consider the fabric type:

  • For synthetic fabrics, try a gentle liquid detergent or a solution of vinegar and water.
  • For delicate fabrics, use a stain remover specifically for wool, silk, or cotton.
  • For leather, use saddle soap, then condition the blazer with a leather balm.

Once you’ve chosen the right product, dampen a clean cloth and dab at the stained area. Don’t rub, as this will spread stain! Instead, press down firmly to draw out the hairspray.

No Liquids Required: The Iron Method

If the fabric is delicate or you’re not comfortable using liquids, there’s another way you can get rid of those pesky hairspray stains. Here’s what to do:

  • Lay blazer flat on an ironing board or hard surface.
  • Press a clean handkerchief or cloth over the stained area.
  • Turn your iron on a low setting and gently press down, moving the iron around the spot in a circular motion.
  • Repeat the process until the stain has completely disappeared.

Important Tips

  • When using liquid cleaners, always test a small, hidden area of the garment first, to make sure the fabric won’t be discolored.
  • Do not use hot water or high heat as this could damage the blazer.
  • Pay extra attention to trim like pockets, collars, and cuffs.
  • Let the blazer air dry after cleaning, then hang it up to finish drying.

With right approach, you can easily get those hairspray stains out of your blazer. Good luck!
