Hairspray is a useful styling aid for achieving picture-perfect hair styles, but it can leave less-than-perfect stains on clothing like jeans. The good news is that there are several simple ways to get hairspray out of jeans. Here are best methods for removing hairspray stains.
If you have already washed and dried your jeans, you should first treat the hairspray stain with prewash stain repellent. This product is designed to target thicker, greasy stains such as those caused by hairspray. Simply spray the affected area and let sit for 10 minutes. Then, launder your jeans as usual.
Another quick fix for hairspray-stained jeans is rubbing alcohol. Start by blotting the stain with a white cloth or paper towel to remove as much of the hairspray as possible. Then, dab rubbing alcohol onto remaining stain using a clean cloth. This will help dilute the hairspray and make it easier to remove. Once you’ve treated the stain with rubbing alcohol, launder your jeans as usual.
To remove hairspray from jeans, you can also try using shaving cream. Apply a generous amount of shaving cream to the stained area and use a scrub brush to work it into the material. This will help break down hairspray so it can be rinsed away. Once the stain is gone, launder your jeans as usual.
If other methods fail to remove the hairspray stain from your jeans, you can also try a grease-cutting dish soap. Simply wet the affected area and rub a small amount of dish soap into the fabric. Then, let the suds sit for a few minutes before rinsing them off with cold water. Repeat this process until the stain is gone and then launder your jeans as usual.
Getting hairspray out of jeans doesn’t have to be a chore. With a few simple tools and techniques, you can easily remove pesky stains and keep your jeans looking good as new.
