Step-by Step Instructions
- Soak the stained hair ties in a bowl of warm water and detergent. Allow it to sit for 10 to 20 minutes.

- Prepare a mixture of 1 tablespoon white vinegar and 2 tablespoons dishwashing liquid. Dip a cloth into the solution and rub onto the affected area.

Additional Tips
