I dye my hair regularly...First, dont use vaseline, it gets into your hair and the chemicals wont take...
what i do is, after i dye my hair and it is setting...i take makeup remover (cheap stuff that i get at cvs) and run that along the back of my neck at the hairline and anywhere else i got it (i have a bad habit of getting it on my face...arrrrgggg) to take most of it off before it sets on my skin. Then after i rinse my hair (before putting in the conditioner, i do a cold rinse (actually lukewarm...this sets the color and it tends to last longer) then do the conditioner. If you still have stain on your neck, use more makeup remover...and if it is a really tough stain i use a dab of fingernail polish remover, non acetone. i always put on lotion after i do this because it tends to dry out my skin.
ANyway, i know this is ALL unsolicited advice...but i hope it helps.
