Rinse your hair with a mixture of half water and half apple cider vinegar. Then, wash it as you normally would, but consider using a mentholated shampoo if your normal option doesn't have menthol in it.

Drink milk immediately after ingesting the garlic. It works really well. Use fresh garlic and stay away from pre-cut garlic in oil, as it has oxidized.

Do a Google image search.

The smell of garlic should naturally go away after a few days. The garlic may be lingering due to clothes that haven't been washed. Avoid the embarrassment of your friend and leave them to clean their clothes or brush their teeth by themselves. If you feel you really need to, then notify them about the garlic smell. If their breath smells, you can always offer them a piece of gum without making it obvious that their breath smells.

If you leave it to soak in a mixture of apple cider vinegar and warm water overnight and then wash it as normal, that normally works. If not, try baking soda or Coca Cola, and then wash it normally.

Create a mixture of 5 parts warm water to 1 part vinegar, pour it into the jar, and close it. Shake the jar for a minute or so, then let sit for at least 6 hours. Give the jar a final shake, then wash it with hot, soapy water. The garlic smell should be efficiently removed.

Funny, the same thing just happened to me last month. Try a mixture of vinegar and water; you’ll trade the garlic smell for a vinegary one, but it should fade more quickly. Alternatively, try washing the floor with a floor cleaner such as Pine Sol.

Try filling up a bowl with coffee grounds and leaving it in the car overnight. The beans should absorb the garlic smell and replace it with the (nicer) smell of coffee.

Set an open container of baking soda in the back of the fridge. Over the course of about a week, the baking soda will absorb the smell of the garlic.

Try washing them with soap and water. If that doesn't work, fill the smelly spoon(s) with a dash of baking soda. Smear the soda all over the spoon(s) with your fingers and rinse with cold water.

Garlic contains many strong-smelling compounds, including allyl methyl sulfide, which can take several hours to break down to the point where you're no longer able to smell it. It can even last for up to 2 days if you don't clean it off or remove it. If it's on your hands, try rubbing a stainless steel spoon or spraying your hands with fresh lemon juice to remove the scent. A nice glass of milk will help neutralize the smell if you have garlic on your breath.

There are a couple of things you can try to neutralize garlic in your stomach. Drink a glass of lemon or lime juice. The acid will neutralize the smell of the garlic.

The oxidizing enzyme in the apple will neutralize the odor-causing compounds in the garlic.

Yes! Milk is a great way to get rid of garlic breath. Studies show that milk is an effective way to reduce the odor-causing compounds of garlic in your mouth, so pour yourself a nice glass to fight your garlic breath. You could also try a cup of lemon or lime juice or even a glass of green tea, all of which will neutralize the odor-causing compounds that make your breath smell garlicky.

Drink milk and stay cool. Heat intensifies the odor. Shower often. Eating uncooked parsley and/or mint leaves after you consume garlic helps reduce the odor.
