Re: Just wondering how you clean your practise heads?
thanks will give that a go, hadnt thought of that
I was tempted to try other cleaning products but figured i would ask the people that have the same problem as me...I asked the store i bought her from and the lady was no help as they only use them for displaying hats etc on, so just dust them off or use a damp cloth. I think i freaked her out when i told her what i use Louise for (my heads name is louise
) lol

100% Acetone was the only thing I found that cleaned mine. Good LUck!

Yes that's the only way that works!!!!!!!
Re: Just wondering how you clean your practise heads?
You have to be careful of acetone with manicures. Learned that the hard way.
I have 99% alcohol which gets a lot of it off, but not back to "new". We also have these chemical sponges called "Magic Erasers". The super powered ones work well but again, watch the manicure.

Hello from Melbourne, I'm a newb too!

After some chronic staining (on my yet to be named heads....help pls!) over the weekend, I got her? clean with good ol' olive oil and elbow grease!

100% Acetone is the only thing that consistently works for me - both practice head with very different types of "skin"
Re: Just wondering how you clean your practise heads?
Others have already mentioned it, but 100% acetone worked wonders on my practice head. It even completely erased Wolfe black - and that's really saying something.
Re: Just wondering how you clean your practise heads?
I will look for acetone, thanks all for the suggestion. I tried 90% alcohol but that didn't take out the dark green that managed to stain right through the barrier layer of hairspray I put on AND a base coat of metallic gold. Now my poor head has a faint green spot right in the middle of her forehead.
Re: Just wondering how you clean your practise heads?
I run her under water & sdoap her up, but since I don't use her for much but practice... she stays stained.
You should see what my daughter did to her the other day

HaaHaa!

Re: Just wondering how you clean your practise heads?
The acetone is great, someone suggested goof off too, have not tried it. I don't have my nails done, so no worries here! 100% acetone is cheap at Walmart or the beauty suppliy.
Re: Just wondering how you clean your practise heads?
I think over here, in the Netherlands, it's only available at the pharmacist?
