Just saw something in the grocery, company name is dylon. I have heard this works. Never tried myself, though.

the reason why the shirt became pink is because of the red part of the shirt. try washing it again and again.

If the colored parts are small details, you can soak it in diluted bleach for a short while and rinse promptly- and the colored parts shouldn't get affected.

yes I would try washing them again and if I didn't see the dye leaving would do the diluted bleach in warm water - but stand and scrub do not leave to soak cause we do not want the color bleeding again ... good luck
