Quick Fix Tricks for Bleach Stains
1. Use a Fabric Marker or Dye Pen
One of the fastest ways to hide bleach stains on clothing is with a fabric marker or dye pen that matches the garment color.

Gently fill in the bleach spot using the marker.
Allow it to dry and, if needed, lightly press with an iron.
Result: The stain blends almost seamlessly with the rest of the fabric.
