I've been dying my hair since I was 14, so know what I'm doing. I just now live in a tiny house with a tiny bathroom and my hair is just shy of my butt. I usually use a mirror to make sure I'm ok, but because of the length of my hair I have to do it upside down over the bathtub. It got on my arms while doing the main body of my hair, ears and forehead are a no brainier and I had a couple of spots drip down the gloves while I was doing the ends. I managed to get it off my face thankfully because I had to go out in public. The box said to use a wet towel with shampoo on it when you rinse it out, which I did and it didn't seem to be working so I attacked my face with exfoliating gloves and it did the job. I've now got to work out how to scrub the purple off the vanity and in the bathtub. I do wipe it straight away but it stains right away too. It's a super dark mahogany since I have to use 2 bottles. Looks blackish in the shade and red in the sun. Came out far better than I expected and I've never gone dark before so it's a nice change. Adds to the 'new me' thing I've got going.

Why is your hair shy of your butt? They both belong to the same girl, so the social awkwardness is unnecessary.

You're supposed to put the dye in your hair, not use it as bubble bath. I would ask if you were blonde, but that's a stupid stereotype. And I think it's a moot point now anyway.

Cig ashes mixed with water works really well, and also like the little round face wash pads that have alcohol in them work amazing to get dye off your skin and counters and wood, tips and tricks of the trade!! Lol good luck!

Use Vaseline on your skin next time where it might touch makes clean up easier

I've been dying my hair for quite a while too! I have learned that as soon as I wash is out, stop the tub and poor some bleach. That will get rid of / lighten the stain up. The best trick I've learned (after staining a very important rug) NAIL POLISH REMOVER IS GOD! Mix a little bit if nailpolish remover with a splash if water and it will pick up stains in the carpet IMMEDIATELY!!! One last thing, if before you dye your hair, you spread some conditioner on your neck, forehead, ears, etc. any dye you get on the conditioner will wipe right off and will not stain! ~just a couple helpful tips

Acetone nail polish remover will do the trick, even on skin if you aren't too sensitive

I have found that facial cleansing wipes take hair dye right off my skin when I have a mishap.

I know this will sound weird but ashes works wonders for removing hair dye off skin. If you know someone who smokes, keep their ashtray.
