Dyeing your hair at home is a fun and simple way to change up your look. However, no matter how skillful you are, hair dye can easily stain the scalp and hairline. This might freak you out, but there are actually many products right in the bathroom, such as toothpaste and makeup remover, that can tackle a stain before it sets in.
Steps
Prevent hair dye from penetrating the skin
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d5/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-1-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-1-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d5/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-1-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-1-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Rub baby oil around the ears and hairline before dyeing your hair. Pour about 1 teaspoon (5ml) of baby oil into the palm of your hand, then dip your fingers in the oil and rub it along your hairline and around your ears. The oil will create a slick layer that can prevent hair dye from seeping into the skin. [1] X Research Source
- Make sure not to let the oil get into your hair; Otherwise, the dye will not be able to penetrate the oil to reach the hair.
- You can also use Vaseline cream or coconut oil in place of baby oil. [2] X Research Source

Do not shower before dyeing your hair to retain the natural oils on the skin. Moisturize your skin naturally by not bathing or washing your face before dyeing your hair. The oil that builds up around the hairline acts as a barrier to prevent the dye from seeping into the skin. [3] X Research Sources

Wear a protective headband to prevent dye from dripping onto the skin. Use a thin elasticated headband on your head before you start dyeing your hair. Hold the headband just above the hairline so it doesn’t get in the way when you dye your hair. [4] X Research Sources
- You should also use an old, thin towel around your neck to prevent the dye from running down the nape of your neck.
- If you have a hairdresser’s cape, you can put it over the towel to protect your clothes from dye getting on them.
Treat stains with leftover hair dye
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3a/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-4-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-4-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/3a/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-4-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-4-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a cotton swab to apply hair dye to the dirty areas. Be careful not to apply it to clean areas of skin, and only to stains that are stuck to the skin. The chemicals in hair dye will be reactivated and make the process of cleaning old stains easier. [5] X Research Sources
- Be careful not to get the hair dye in your eyes. You can wear goggles to protect your eyes and the sensitive skin around your eyes.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/9e/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-5-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-5-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/9e/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-5-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-5-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a cotton swab to rub the hair dye into the stain for about 30-60 seconds. Rub the hair dye into the dirty skin using gentle circular motions. Only rub the inside of the stain to avoid spreading the dye to the surrounding skin. [6] X Research Sources
- If you feel your skin starts to get irritated, stop immediately and use water to wash your face.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/c8/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-6-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-6-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/c8/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-6-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-6-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use an exfoliating cleanser and a wet washcloth to remove the dye from your skin. Squeeze a pea-sized amount of cleanser onto a wet washcloth and gently wipe the reactivated hair dye from your skin. [7] X Research Sources
- If you don’t have an exfoliating cleanser, you can also use regular soap.
- Repeat the above steps as needed to continue rinsing the dye thoroughly.
Scrub skin with toothpaste
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/5c/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-7-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-7-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/5c/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-7-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-7-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a cotton swab to dab a pea-sized amount of toothpaste on the stain. You need to use a toothpaste that contains baking soda and is not a gel. Rub the toothpaste evenly over the entire stain and wipe off excess with a paper towel. [8] X Research Sources
- If you have an old soft-bristled toothbrush, you can use it to scrub the stain. Be careful when using a toothbrush, as the large brush head will be difficult to control precisely. [9] X Research Source
- Instead of toothpaste, you can try vinegar or hairspray. All three of these methods work equally, and each works as an exfoliant to remove hair dye from the skin. Just be careful not to get any product in your eyes. [10] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/06/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-8-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-8-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/06/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-8-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-8-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a cotton swab to rub toothpaste into the stain for 1 minute. Use gentle pressure so that the toothpaste does not irritate the skin. If the cotton swab doesn’t seem to remove the dead skin, put on gloves and rub the toothpaste on your skin with your fingers. [11] X Research Source
- The granular texture of the toothpaste along with the reaction of the baking soda will dislodge the hair dye from the pores.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/ab/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-9-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-9-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/ab/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-9-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-9-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wipe off the toothpaste and hair dye with a wet washcloth. Use an old towel that you don’t mind getting dirty. If the stains are gone, you can wash your face again with your regular cleanser and water. [12] X Research Source
- Repeat the steps above as needed, but not so many times that it irritates the skin.
Use makeup remover to remove hair dye stains
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/35/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-10-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-10-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/35/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-10-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-10-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a cotton swab to apply makeup remover to the stain. Use a thick makeup remover like cold cream so it can stick to the skin. Apply a layer of cream that covers the entire area of the stain on the head and hairline. [13] X Research Source
- You can use a makeup remover like micellar water, but it may not be as effective.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/57/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-11-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-11-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/57/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-11-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-11-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a cotton swab to rub the stain on the skin for about 1 minute. Rub the makeup remover into the pores in a circular motion. Use gentle pressure to avoid skin irritation. [14] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/76/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-12-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-12-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/76/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-12-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-12-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wait for the makeup remover to absorb into the skin for about 5 minutes. Makeup remover cream will break down the pigments in hair dye and clean up stains on the skin. Avoid leaving the makeup remover on your skin for more than 5 minutes, as it can cause skin irritation when mixed with hair dye. [15] X Research Source
- If you see signs of skin irritation at any time while waiting for the cream to absorb into your skin, wipe it off immediately and wash your face.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/cd/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-13-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-13-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/cd/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-13-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-13-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wipe off the makeup remover with a damp cloth and wash your face. Gently wipe off the makeup remover, being careful not to spread it near the skin around the eyes. Makeup remover cream now contains residual hair dye, so you need to avoid letting it come into contact with your eyes. [16] X Research Source
- Repeat the above step to remove the hair dye from the skin if necessary.
Rub baby oil on the stain
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b7/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-14-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-14-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/b7/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-14-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-14-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a cotton swab or gloved finger to rub baby oil onto the stain. Pour into the palm of your hand 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of baby oil or a similar light oil, such as coconut oil. Dip a cotton swab or gloved finger in the oil and gently rub it over the stain. [17] X Research Source
- Treat the stain before bed to give the baby oil time to soak into the skin overnight.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/80/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-15-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-15-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/80/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-15-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-15-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wait overnight for the baby oil to soak into the stain to completely dissolve the pigment. Avoid washing or touching your face while applying baby oil. Lie on your back when you sleep to prevent the oil from being wiped away. [18] X Research Sources
- Cover the pillow with an old towel to keep the oil from staining the pillow. Remember to use a towel that you don’t regret throwing away, as the oil will leave a stain.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/44/Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-16-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-16-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/44/Remove-Hair- Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-16-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Hair-Dye-from-Your-Scalp-Step-16-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wash your face in the morning with warm water and soap to remove the oil. Wash your face as usual with soap. Avoid using exfoliants, as your skin may be irritated by the hair dye. [19] X Research Source
- Repeat this process the following night if necessary.
Advice
- You can also remove hair dye stains from your skin with a little shampoo. Rub the soap on your skin with your hands, then wipe off the shampoo with a damp cloth. This method works best for hair dye stains that have not been around for a long time.
- Wear nylon gloves so the hair dye doesn’t get into your hands. That way, you won’t accidentally spread the dye to other areas of your skin. [20] X Research Source
- Don’t worry if the stain is not completely clean after treatment. After a few days, the natural oils on the skin will break down the pigment of the hair dye. [21] X Research Source
Warning
- Avoid using anything near your eyes. If your skin starts to become irritated when you are trying to remove the hair dye, stop immediately and rinse with water. Ask your doctor if irritation persists. [22] X Research Source
