I just picked up this 6x9 rug on Facebook Marketplace for $75. The seller mentioned it belonged to their mother and it doesn’t look new but I’m unsure on age. While it’s free of major stains or pet damage, it does show some color wear, minor fraying, and a slight odor. I'm curious about its history and origin while additionally, trying to figure out if its worth more and a piece that warrants careful professional cleaning or if it's safe for me to clean it myself at home using a good, pH-balanced wool cleaner. I’d love any insights or restoration advice you have. Like I said I didn’t pay a fortune so unless it’s actually worth one, I don’t want to go all out for a professional cleaning I’m assuming will cost an arm and leg.

Help - Semi Permanent Hair Dye on Wool Carpet

I don't know how I managed to not spill a single drop in the bathroom, however when walking to the kitchen with the used bottle of dye in its original box, it must have dripped on the carpet.

It's the Clairol Natural Instincts Semi Permanent dye, dark brown, on a medium beige carpet (so very effing noticeable).

I've been all over the internet and reddit, and getting so much conflicting advise. I'm heading to the shops today for white vinegar, baking soda and isopropyl alcohol. I've already tried a dry stain product and a wet stain product for carpets and it hasn't made a dent.

Has anyone else had success with this, and should I do the alcohol first and then the vinegar/dishwasher liquid/baking soda, or the other way around.

I'm devastated, it's not my house, it's a clients and I am terrified about the damage I've caused 😫
