Why does hair dye stain acrylic nails?

The main reason why hair dye can stain your acrylic nails or gel nails is because of the ingredients in hair dye.

Hair dye usually contains two main types of dyes: direct dyes and oxidation dyes. Direct dyes can be found in temporary and semi-permanent hair dyes, and these are the type of dyes that are more likely to cause staining on your nails.

Oxidation dyes are found in permanent hair dyes, and while they’re less likely to cause staining, it’s still possible.

There are a few different methods you can try, when trying to remove hair dye from your acrylic nails. The first being a non-acetone nail polish remover. It’s extremely important it’s an acetone free nail polish remover, as you don’t want to damage the acrylic overlay on your nails.

Once you’ve tried the nail polish remover, soak your nails in a mix of hot water and dish soap for 10 mins. Dish soap is notoriously abrasive, and that alone can help with the removal of pesky hair dye stains.

You can also try using hairspray. Make sure you remove the excess hair dye with a cotton pad first. Spray your acrylic nail until the entire nail is wet from the hair spray can, then use a q-tip to wipe off the excess, gently buffing the hair dye stain on the nail bed, and it should remove the stain after 10-15 minutes. You might need to use a nail brush, for a little more intensive brushing. Ensuring you rinse with hot water afterwards.

If those still haven’t worked, try rubbing a baking soda paste onto your nails, and leave it to sit on the stain for 5 mins, and then rinse away. Always follow up with a cuticle oil, as these steps will be extremely drying on your nails and cuticles.
