Try using Listerine or a toner/astringent containing alcohol, such as Sea Breeze (does anyone even use that stuff anymore?).
Don't use pure rubbing alcohol since it can be too harsh on your skin. The above mentioned have just enough to get the dye stains mostly out. The remnants will fade after a shower or two.

I think hydrogen peroxide will work, too. My boyfriend dyes his hair black (don't laugh, it looks sexy) and I've used it to remove dye from his ears and neck. And it will fade. You mights have to stay in this weekend lol!
I know the feeling :o Also Vaseline works wonders, it softens the skin that is dyed, and help the skin shed off faster. It does not hurt to use some "elbow grease" to scrub some as well.
In the future, put vaseline around the hairline, ears and neck before coloring

Doh! Now ya tell me about the vaseline! Well, I think I got most of it off but there is a tint of dark around my new tattoo. Noo! Not too bad and with a ton of bleach I got it out of the tub so the husband wouldn't freak. I know what you mean Natascha about the black hair - I loved it when my fellow colored his hair black. Hot.
I know there's this stuff at Sally Henson specially for removing hair dye off skin. I use it all the time since i color my hair black it really works
Yup, the Vaseline trick is crucial if coloring your hair dark or red. Not so necessary when you lighten.....

i dont color my hair anymore,(been about 5 years) But when i did, that stuff somehow got all over me too, every time..
hydrogen peroxide will work like someonw else mentioned.

Usually the dye is mostly on the little teeny fuzzy hairs on your body. You can just dab nair on the outside of your hairline, ears, neck, etc.. and byebye dye marks..
I dye my hair a blue-based black and this is the easiest way to get rid of it completely.
*yes, I'm still bruised and sore..*
