If you've noticed dark spots on your Keds after you sprays your hair, you're not alone. Hairspray can leave behind sticky ingredients like alcohol and resin, which can leave dark marks on high-quality materials like suede, leather, and canvas. Fortunately, removing hairspray stains from Keds is easy with a few simple steps.
Start by removing any excess hairspray from the surface of your shoes. Use a soft cloth or paper towel to gently wipe away any hairspray residue before it has a chance to set. This will help prevent the stain from becoming even deeper.
Once the excess hairspray has been removed, you can begin treating the stain with a mild detergent. Mix a small amount of detergent with warm water and dip a soft cloth in the solution. Gently rub the cloth onto the stain to treat the area. Let the detergent sit for about 10 minutes before wiping it away with a damp cloth.
It's important to rinse the area thoroughly with cold water when you’re finished cleaning. This will help remove any remaining detergent residue and ensure that the stain doesn’t reappear.
Allow cleaned area to air-dry completely before you wear your Keds again. This will help make sure that the stain is completely gone before you put your shoes back on.
By following these steps, you can effectively remove hairspray stains from your Keds without damaging the material. Just remember to take your time and be gentle when cleaning the area - if you rub too hard, you risk making the stain worse.
