If you have very long hair, you might need to buy 2 packages. Always read the manufacturer’s instructions before beginning to use the color removing product.
Some packages may recommend that you pour both of the bottles into a non-metallic bowl and stir until the liquids are combined.
If you have short hair, you can begin applying the liquid directly to your hair. If you’d like more control in applying the liquid, pour it into a bowl and dip a tint brush into it. Brush the liquid onto strands of your hair until it’s coated.
To prevent the liquid from dripping onto your face, consider putting on a plastic shower cap.
It’s important to rinse and shampoo your hair thoroughly because this is what will remove the hair dye. Choose a shampoo designed for your hair type and avoid using color-enhancing or protecting shampoos. For example, if you have dry, brittle hair, pick a moisturizing shampoo.
Consider sitting under a hooded hair dryer while the conditioner is in your hair. This can increase the conditioner’s nourishing ability, and its overall benefit to your hair. If your hair is particularly dry or brittle, allow your hair to air dry instead of blow drying it. Drying your hair with heat can further damage your hair.
To save a little money, go to a beauty school and ask about their color correcting services.
Vitamin C will make the hair cuticles expand. This makes it easier to wash away the hair dye. For the most effective way to wash color from your hair, use a clarifying shampoo which will help strip your hair. You’ll need to shampoo your hair several times using this technique, because the dye will not be removed after only one shampoo.
Keep in mind that anti-dandruff shampoos can damage your hair if you don’t condition your hair after using them. The selenium sulfide will penetrate your hair for deep cleaning that makes the hair dye gradually fade away. Again, you’ll need to repeat this technique several times to remove all of the dye that’s in your hair.
The hot water will help loosen the dye from your hair. You may need to do this several times or throughout the week to completely remove the dye from your hair.
Use the hottest water you can handle since this will help the color wash out of your hair. You may need to apply a baking soda paste several times before the color washes out.
Keep in mind that you’ll probably have to do this several times to notice a major difference in the color of your hair.
