Step 1: Gently Blot Up Excess Hairspray
The first step in removing hairspray stains is to gently blot up the excess product. Make sure not to scrub the fabric too harshly as this could cause the stain to spread. Once you’ve removed majority of the product, you can move onto the next step.
Step 2: Pre-Treat Stain with Detergent
Next, you’ll want to pre-treat the stain with a bit of gentle laundry detergent. Apply a few drops of detergent directly onto the affected area and bloat gently in circular motions. This will help to break up the hairspray and make it easier to remove during the wash cycle.
Step 3: Wash On a Gentle Setting in Warm Water
Once you’ve pre-treated the stain, put your hoodie in the washing machine and select a gentle wash setting. Make sure to use warm water rather than hot, as this could further set the stain. If you’re still unsure, consult the care label inside your hoodie before washing.
Step 4: Use Vinegar Solution to Remove Stubborn Stains
For particularly stubborn stains, you may need to take an extra step. Mix together equal parts white vinegar and warm water in a bowl and dip a clean cloth into solution. Gently dab at the affected area and let it sit for about 10 minutes before washing again.
Step 5: Air Dry and Check for Success
Once your hoodie has gone through wash cycle, air dry it and check for the desired results. If stain has faded considerably, then you’ve done a great job at removing it! If the stain still remains, you can repeat the process and try a different solution until it is fully removed.
