First up, a childhood favorite: chalk. Like all of these hacks, you have to wash the garment after you treat it (duh).

Good ol' Head & Shoulders. I'm not putting it in my hair but sure, I'll try it on this stain.

SHAMPOO RESULTS: Whoever thought of this hack is a genius.

CANCER SUGAR RESULTS: Glad we found a use for this gnarly stuff!
