What You’ll Need

  • White vinegar
  • Dishwashing liquid

  • Old toothbrush or soft-bristled brush
  • A clean white cloth

Instructions

  1. Mix a solution of equal parts white vinegar and dishwashing liquid, and pour it into a spray bottle.
  2. Spray the hairspray-stained areas of the leggings until they are completely saturated.
  3. Gently scrub the stained area with a soft-bristled brush.
  4. Rinse the leggings in warm water.
  5. If any of the stain remains, apply a laundry detergent directly to the area and let it sit for a few minutes. Scrub it gently with a soft-bristled brush.
  6. Rinse with warm water again and check for any remaining stains.
  7. If there are still faint traces of hairspray, rub a white cloth lightly over the stain and rinse with warm water. This should remove any last traces of stain.
  8. Allow leggings to air dry.
