By the looks of it, it's just you and me, Bo

Pah! The rest of them obviously aren't doing it right B'El

You wouldn't believe how many bathmats, too, I've ruined in the process

spotted walls...

dragonprincess, who is very keen on dyeing her hair, has decorated many bathroom walls over the years. Fortunately I've noticed it most of the times and managed to get rid of the spots before they've dried and became permanent.

Oh, a fellow clumsy dyer
In the thread on 'ask' somebody just said she wears a bra - no towel, and the bra straps wouldn't be affected. Brilliant idea - wonder why it never occurred to me to me to wear one

Oh no, you can still get dye on the straps, it requires an awful lot of skill to do this, obviously

So, we're both very skilful, eh?

A good bra is much too expensive to be ruined by hair dye.

Indeed it would!!

Hi there!
Had to put in my two cents...
The garbage bag idea is good, I think. When I dye my very long hair, I gather the hair into one of those two handled plastic bags you get groceries in. Then I hang the handles on my ears. No, really. It works!(Unless of course, you have disgustingly delicate little ears.)
But the towel I get dye on is the one I use to dry on after the first rinse. Usually, my dye comes out after one or two hot washes. However, the best solution that I have discovered is this:
Wait till you have to stay in a motel, and get the dye on the motel's cheap, scratchy old towels!

Traveller in Time in need for an update
" also has some hair.

have it under the cap "

Buy a set of towels the same colour as the dyes you intend to use. Then use the apporpriate coloured towel with each dye. Simple!

There are no such towels... no one would even dream of dyeing towels in the same colours that shine in my hair...
