What You'll Need
- Mild Dish Soap
- Toothbrush
- Paper Towels
- Soft Cloth
Step 1: Pre-Treat with Dish Soap
Begin by pre-treating the stained area with a small amount of mild dish soap. Rub the detergent gently into the fabric and allow it to sit for a few minutes, then rinse with warm water. This step helps to loosen the stain and make the next steps easier.
Step 2: Scrub the Stain
Once the pre-treatment is complete, use a clean toothbrush to scrub the remaining stain. Make sure to be gentle — you don’t want to cause damage to headband fabric. Rinse area again to remove any remaining detergent.
Step 3: Let it Dry
Once the stain has been removed, be sure to let the headband hang dry instead of using a clothes dryer. Heat from the dryer can cause the stain to set into the fabric and make it almost impossible to remove.
Step 4: Polish the Headband
After the headband has dried, you can polish it using a soft cloth. This will help restore shine to the fabric and hide any remaining faint traces of the stain.
