Removing Hairspray Stains from Your Camisole
- Before treating the stained area, dab a paper towel or cloth over it to absorb any excess hairspray.
- Create a solution of warm water and mild detergent, such as hand soap, dishwashing liquid, or a laundry detergent made for delicate fabrics.
- Using a clean sponge or cloth, dampen the affected area and apply a dab of the detergent solution. Gently rub the stain using circular motions until it begins to lift.
- Rinse the remaining detergent from the fabric, then launder the cami as you normally would with similar items.
- If the hairspray remains after laundering, repeat steps 1-4 before drying it in the machine.
Working with Stubborn Stains
If the hairspray stain is still present after laundering, some common household products may provide additional cleaning power. For example:
- Rub a small amount of white vinegar into affected area, then rinse with cool water.
- Create a paste of water and baking soda, then use a toothbrush to scrub the stain before rinsing.
- Moisten the stain with rubbing alcohol. Rub the area gently and rinse with cool water.
If stain persists, consider professional dry cleaning services.
