How to remove hair dye on my toilet seat cover?

How can I remove hair dye on my toilet seat cover? The dye sits in and there's no way to remove the stain!

Abby or dot,dot,dot, what the hell were you doing sitting on the toilet seat with your head covered with this highly malicious full of chemicals hair-dye? You should be able to find instructions on how to remove stains somewhere on the packaging or on a leaflet contained inside the box of this monsterous product.

Abby,
I don't know if it still exists of if you can get it in Singapore but something called 'Dab it Off' used to be good. Failing that may be 'shout' but as you say it is dye it could be permanent in which case you will just have to buy a new cover.

Try bleach.

Thanks guys! A fairly small amount of bleach and large amount of Cif did the job!! Although there is a little light stain left.

Does the coliure of your toilet seatte match the color of your hair, may I be so bold as to ask this? If your answer as to this is a positive, then may I ask which is the color of your hair now?

You can try some nail polish remover but it may also remove the glossy finish. Mix a little water with baking soda to make a slurry and rub the stain with a cloth. Try substituting hydrogen peroxide with the baking soda. You can also try spraying hair spray on the stain and wipe off
