This solution can act effectively against bleach stains and is suitable for wool, linen, denim and cotton fabrics.

Simply use a cloth soaked in hydrogen peroxide before rubbing the bleach-affected area. Then rinse your textile with water before letting it air dry. It is recommended to put the clothes in the washing machine for best results.
