OT-Help with removing dye

[lesliewitt]

HELP!!! I was tye-dying shirts for disney today and was not so diligent about wearing the gloves (like I should have been in retrospect). I have the dye (blue and red) all over my hands and I can't get it off. My hands look disgusting. Any suggestions for what soap to use. I have tried Gojo already and it helped a little, but not near enough. Thanks!

I turned purple when dying a shirt one time. I finally just soaked my hands in bleach water and it came off. I am not a doctor and I don't know how good (or harmful) this is for your skin so no flames please-but it did work for me!

Thanks-I will do that as soon as I get some bleach (would you believe I just ran out the other day!).

Sea breeze. It takes dye off.

Probably about as good for your skin as bleach, but I've used Comet/Ajax to get dye off before. (Followed by a good dose of hand lotion!)

I was going to suggest the bleach water too.
