Help - stain removal!

[cella]

HELP! Can't believe I've splashed dark hair dye on my white leather sofa and then, almost immediately, pink nail varnish on the rug under the sofa. Any top tips to remove/lessen the stains? I haven't tried anything yet in case it makes it worse. Grr!

Has advice on nail polish stains. Maybe a google of how to remove a hair dye stain from leather will produce results. Good luck.

Such a useful site - brilliant. Sadly the rug stain is here to stay so I've just moved it around and put something over it! Some of the sofa stain came out with nail varnish remover so now I'm just resigned to living with what's left. Thanks for your help.

Hair spray does the job on anything but sadly you need to do it straight away ex hairdresser we used it all the time

I have leather sofas and use saddle soap check on Google and they might have a stain remover as well

Good luck

As your sofa is white leather, rather than a colour, would it be worth trying a few drops of hydrogen peroxide on a tiny part of the stain to see if it can take the dye out? If it does and you're left with an off-white stain, you could try a bit of a platinum blonde hair dye, again in a tiny area first.
