You are so real. Your honesty, down to earth and real presentation is refreshing. You showed us your personal journey. Thanks for the tips. I am 72 year old black child of God, and prided my grey hair that framed my face and left the rest of my hair black. However I used Neem oil on my scalp and was horrified that it turned by beautiful grey hair a dirty brown. I shampooed it, but not all came out. Will try your recipe. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. God bless.

Thank you so much. Your recipe worked beautifully for me (with hair more than 90% white). I have now done this treatment twice with a few added tweaks to your recipe: 1) not on wet hair, 2) a tetch higher concentration of HP, 3) I also added a bit of very dark purple shampoo - nut-sized amount, and 4) I left it on more than 40 minutes. I just did the yellowed sections - not all of my hair. Washed it out - and ... such BRILLIANCE. SHINY, all warm tones are gone. I can see that this recipe is suitable for ME to perform not more than once per week. But in just two days (last night, and this afternoon), the results are FANTASTIC, resulting in icy white hair. Thank you again.

I have done the treatment twice and it really is working, saved me from cutting my hair short. It works!!!

How sweet of you to take the time to share your experience! I have a light gold bathroom, and silly me, I thought my white hair was just picking up the color from my walls!!😱😱😱 okay, I thought I was suppose to be gaining wisdom as I got older!! Well, so glad you came along. I just tried your method with great results! I think one more time will finally rid my white hair completely of the yellow twinge! Again, thank you for this method! Stay safe!

I just did this today. It worked perfectly!!!

Decided to go grey over a year ago.. I really needed this video. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for posting this treatment! I have had grey hair for 3 years now and all of a sudden the area around my face started to turn yellow. After searching and trying natural remedies with no success, your treatment worked beautifully. I applied the treatment two days in a row and the yellow is nearly gone and my sensitive, curly hair has no damage! I too will be apply this treatment maybe once a month to keep all of my grey bright and yellow-free. Thank you again!

Thank you so much! I am allergic to purple shampoos. I had to go to a dermatologist after using a purple shampoo. This worked perfectly!!

Hard water can cause yellowing of your hair too. Try to use clear treated water (water softener or city water) to wash your hair in if possible. Hard water is what my problem is 👌.

Hi ,I have used this and it’s a defo treatment every week .My grey hair looks pearly white. It feels lovely ,thank you for the recipe. Xx❤

Hi Jessica, Thanks so much for sharing this video. I have done 2 treatments now, each a week apart, and I can see a difference. I will follow through with 1 more treatment. I have thin fine hair and was nervous to try this. I’m thrilled at the results and I didn’t need to go to a hair salon for an expensive treatment. Thanks again and take care!!

Thank you so much for posting this treatment! I have transitioned to grey hair 2 years ago + noticed that I had some yellowing in the last few inches of my hair (similar to how yours looked). I do shampoo my hair with Clairol Purple Shampoo + Conditioner once a week, but I wash my hair every other day, so maybe I wasn't using the Purple Shampoo + Conditioner enough. But anyway, I tried your treatment and I'm so pleased to say there's no longer any yellow in my hair at the ends. Like You, I also needed to do it three times to remove all the yellow. But my curly hair is damage free, thanks to your kind + thoughtful tip! Thank you again, truly appreciated.

This works wonderfully! I highly recommend this. I also used my hands, to make sure it was all covered, then placed a zip lock bag over my head, and waited 20 minutes. This worked Execelently!!!!!! Many thanks to you!!

Hi, I'm not gray just a few here and there. So I tried this method not for my gray, but to remove hair dye gently and it works, I had a bad box dye. It's was supposed to be brown, but I got red and then made my few grays pink, it looked awful. I used this method for 3 weeks(one a week) and left it about a hour and now my hair is 2 shades lighter and almost all the dye is gone. Thank you so much 💓 💗 💛 💖 ☺

Thank you for sharing this! I have been trying to find a solution to my white hair turning yellow for a while now. The purple shampoo tones down the brassiness but also turned the darker color underneath a strange purple-brown so I won’t use it anymore. This past summer I was convinced that it was oxidation from being out in the sun so I religiously wore a hat every time I went out, but no it still turned yellow after a few months. I am looking forward to trying this, fingers crossed it works!

Ditto. Same here! My hair at 53 is white now. I skipped pepper and went straight to salt. Mine naturally looks yellow. Bright yellow. It is so bright like ghost of Christmas past bright that I have tried everything to go silver. It has been a task. I have a plan to use a dark Smokey grey around sides of my head and a light silver on top. That’s the look I’m going for. Similar to what you have here except I’m getting ready to cut mine into a short sharp edge haircut that is real tapered in back and long in front. With your good hair you should do it. I think long grey hair is not quite as sharp looking as a short modern look. Do it girl. You are half way there.

I once asked a lady in the grocery store how she got her white SO WHITE, this is exactly what she told me she uses (minus the water, but she applied to wet hair though)

Thank you so very much for looking, finding and trying out recipes until you found one that worked! I’m trying to grow out my silver hair and was ready to cut it way short because of the yellow!!! Bless you!!!

This may not work for everyone, but first try it worked for me, Thank you! The top of my hair is a pretty shiny white, but my hair styling is so much better when I flat iron it, and I needed a refresher solution for when it darkened and it worked 👍

I wouldn’t use the mixed formula a week later. Hydrogen peroxide breaks down rapidly to water. Mix fresh each time.

3% food grade hydrogen peroxide is not very damaging especially on course hair. I don't think you need to dilute it at all. I spray it on my hair with a spray bottle and makes sure it's saturated. Comb it through and pin it up and put plastic wrap on it and leave on for a hour once a month and my hair is soft and fine.

Visited again cause it's such a great video. Really appreciate the progression of photos showing difference. Going to do it today and stop procrastinating! Thanks so much for sharing:)

Thank you for sharing. I'll try this - your hair is a shimmery shiny silver!

WONDERFUL! Thanks I tried this and results were amazing.

I have also had underwhelming results with purple shampoo on my white and gray hair. With exposure to exactly the same shower/well water, sunlight, and other environmental factors, Hubby has beautiful white hair with no yellow, while mine turns yellower on the ends. I suspect damage from heat styling, so will try your method. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you! I met a lady, and the back of her long gray/white hair had yellowed. I wish I had known this,so I could help her.♡

Just starting my gray journey ( bout 3 months in) and I’ve been watching many “going gray” videos for inspiration. Glad i found this one so if i do encounter yellowing i can use your remedies and not be tempted to jump back on the dyeing train. Thanks!!

I can still see a yellow hue, but it did get rid of almost all of it. I'd probably do it one or two more times.

I've used peroxide on my hair for years, sometimes I add it to baking soda and use it as a detox to get all of the chemicals out of my hair. I will squirt it on my hair rub it in, add a light conditioner leave for a few minutes then rinse. Usually lasts for 3-4 months. ***Side not, I have those same bathroom hardware that you have behind you in mine.

This may even be a solution for bleached hair too that has light yellow Gonna try it 💛

I'm so glad I found this. My ends are doing the same thing!

Tried this today and last night for my shoulder length grown out silver hair. Part of my hair is a brownish gray. Both treatments yielded poor results unfortunately! Barely showed up at all. Second treatment was peroxide and purple shampoo for 35 minutes. I must have stubborn hair! I will try again in a week to see if it will begin to lift. I love my front bangs, nice and light. But I have other tones I dont love. Its still so much better than chasing the grey line! I love being mostly silver.

I just found this and am happy to try this myself. I hope my yellow goes away!!!!! Thank you!

Purple shampoos do not remove yellow. They mask it. Purples also create a build up on the hair which makes the yellowing worse. It is also very drying which makes hair more susceptible yellowing.

I found I have to use purple shampoo for gray hair and a purple conditioner. I was told by my hair stylist that the wax in the previous hair products held oil and dirt to my hair. Idk if that helpful. I'm glad that the hair treatment is working for you.

Thank you! I've tried nearly everything to get the yellow out so I am very hopeful with this treatment. I had beautiful snow white hair until I moved to the country where I have well water so my hair is stained yellow from iron in the water. Great video also.

Looks beautiful. Your hair is soft not course what products did you use a special conditioner❤️

Very useful info'. Did your hair remain in good condition afterwards? Did you have any unwanted effects as time went on? Thanks

Amazing. Great job on the video. With my super short hair I don't see yellow,but will keep this in mind for the future. Maybe a wide tooth comb would be good for application.

All I can say "WOW"

I have been looking for something to remove the yellow from my quite silver hair. I am going to be trying this. I did see your video regarding the use of ACV and will probably use that after I get the yellow removed with this peroxide recipe =) Thank you!!

I’m so happy it worked for your beautiful hair! Do you know what caused the yellowing? I’m only 6 months in my grey hair transition so I have a while to go , but it’s good to have this kind of information ! Thank you for sharing 👩🏻‍🦳🥰

Great advice. I've been struggling with this for a while. Thank you so much.

Thank you for this, last night i kept looking at my hair thinking it looked really yellow. I am going to try this

Your hair looks beautiful! What a great video! Thanks!

Exposure to sunlight and chlorine can also cause yellowing.

I was told my hair is yellowing because of the heat in my curling iron. Do you think this will work for heat damage?

There's a noticeable difference. I'm there, I want tge yellow out. 👍

Wow! This sounds like a great treatment. I've been using blue shampoos (Blue is better for me because I have a lot of a warm brown natural color left )for toning and kept thinking there has to be a way to remove this rather than just covering it up. I will try this soon. Thank you

Wow nice I have to try this on my silver hair. Thank you. What type of conditioner did you use.

Water, hydrogen peroxide, cheap shampoos and a few drops of Dawn unscented dish detergent. I have white/silver/grey hair.

Why does the hair turn yellow? I assume it must be the chemical compounds or metals in shower water.

Love the video and the content - very helpful. Did you have any parts of your hair that looked a bit dingy instead of yellow? While I'm not yellow, my silver has gotten dingy-looking over the years. I wondered if the hydrogen peroxide formula would help. Thoughts? TIA

Wow, so what makes it go yellow I wonder ?

Looks like it works better than purple shampoo Gonna try this I'm looking into methods on much cheaper than hairdresser

Thanks for your post. I just saw it. Can I use the mixture also on salt & pepper hair?

I tried this today as a test on some dark whispies at the nape of my neck. Nothing, no change at all. oh well. Update: I did use the mixture again the next day, and it actually did seem a little lighter to me, just a little. I was very surprised, I really didn't think it would work for me. Well, I tried it again the following week, and it didn't seem to do anything. Maybe because I used the leftover from the previous week, I don't know. I decided to try again in a couple of weeks and see what happens. Tomorrow is the day. In the meantime, though, I also got some purple shampoo (no propylene glycol! hard to find), which I used last week, and much to my surprise, that really seemed to lighten my hair quite a bit, even those dark whispies! There's still yellow in it, but it was overall brighter, shinier! So, I'm hoping between this mixture and the purple shampoo, it will lighten and remove more of the yellow. Guess I just need to keep trying, and hope to Heaven I don't wreck my hair totally in the process. I should say, though, that last week, my hair felt rather dry and frizzy right after I unwrapped my plop, so I think it may have been the new conditioner I bought at Sally's (the sales girl recommended it), and maybe even the spray serum I got contributed to it feeling/looking really dry and fruzzy, which it wasn't supposed to do. Silk drops serum helped with that, though. It's just that those serums have silicone products in them (dimethicone) as do many conditioners that claim to control frizz. But it's not good for already dry, curly hair, as per the Curly Girl directives, so I've avoided them for quite a while. They do help, though, so I'm going to keep using them for now. Making up a fresh batch right now and will post again after I see the results. Wish me luck! Oh yeah, a couple other things - I added a little more peroxide (maybe a cap full) to the mix to see if that would help lift out the yellow a little more, and used a spray bottle, and left it on for 40-45 minutes under a processing cap (same as when I used to color it). But it didn't seem to make a difference after all. I'm going to try it again that way tomorrow, though, and with the purple shampoo, I'll bet it will make a big difference.

Mineral build up from hard water can cause yellow hair. Have you tried a demineralizing shampoo?

God this is making me cry 😢 Ok by the end your hair looks much lighter 😅. I’m gonna try it. I always heard about it but just was afraid due to the drying from the peroxide and my hair is baby fine white/silver 😬 it’s yellowed on top layer like from the sun with highlights actually from spending nine months in Sandiego. Thanks so much for your share ❤️ your a beautiful soul! 🙏

The link does not work anymore. Thanks for the video and sharing.

Thank you! I can't wait to try this method!

im doing this now i hope it helps i have been going grey for over 3 years and i have no more box color in my hair and its got some of my reg, dark brown almost black color in it kinda like salt and pepper but i play golf and my hair turns a yellow orange color on the tips and in the back so i hope this helps i dont want to go have it done bec, i dont want them to use a full bleach on it i know peroxide is a light bleach bec, back in the 80's we use to use it in highschool ( that just made me feel old ) lol but we would use peroxide and blowdry kinda like sun in .. so thank you for this video

You are so brave! Thank you for doing this experiment for us. I am going to do this

Thank you, that is something that I have struggle with and I did not know what to do. Do you use any purple shampoos?

You look great with hair color!

Thanks!!! Gonna try it, had it with this ugly yellow not matching my white!

Omg this is so exciting!!! My hair is similar to yours!!! I’m starting to see yellowing too!

Yeah, that's called bleaching. You are bleaching your hair. Peroxide is in bleaching developer

Amazing results. I would love to try it... Thank you!

For yellow in grey hair. I see you recommend 2 recipes 1. Hydrogen peroxide And 2. Apple cider vinegar Which of the 2 do you recommend. With thanks

Word of caution: if you still have dark brown or brown hair mixed with your gray, this will turn the brown hair orange!!!!! So, yes, your white hairs will be whiter….but you will have orange hairs mixed in!

I am scared of the hydrogen peroxide but we will see. it looks legit.

how much peroxide , water, & conditioner...Measurement amts?

There are other reasons for discolored hair. One is hard water. There is a hair softener sold in a shower head that has a filter to remove Particles in hard water. Amazon has a lot of choices. I’d do that before I’d ever use this method because a new shower head isn’t going to melt down my hair. Your hair isn’t the same as mine and neither of us is a bona fine chemist!

I was a hairstylist for 28 yrs. I don't think it s a good idea to use it once a week (maybe once a month) once You get all the yellow out. IYou could overnighten it doing it once a week. Once it s lifted to the color you like I would suggest only using if you see it getting yellow again or every few weeks.. Not trying to tell you what to do but professionally speaking it could leave you disappointed possibly if you continue with it every week. It looks really awesome but peroxide every week wouldn't be a good thing on your hair. go tell you what to do but you could.

Very interesting and you explain it quite thoroughly so thank you!!! I just washed and conditioned my hair but I'll try this in 4 days. If i can wait that long! Lol

Did you color the natural dark hair underneath as well and if so did it change color?

Thank you so much, I did once on Fridya and noticed a big difference, then again on Sunday and my hair went back to normal getting rid of the yellow that one shapoo (I believe) was giving me, but whatever it was, now I am so happy with the result. I will be doing this once a week to keep it shiny and healthy.

Thank you for making this video! We have really hard water and my gray transitioning has left me with orangy/grey/dark 3 tone hair even after doing a dye removal treatment. My hair was much lighter after the treatment but due to the water being so concentrated with iron, I continue to have orange/red tone

Try having snow white hair turns yellow

I'm wondering if the yellowing is actually rust from the water. Or if that's a different color orangish color. I'm going to try this as well

Thank you, Im surely going to try this, but will cut down on the Baking Soda, it will damage your hair after awhile now that you have the yellow out, I would cut down on the BS and push treatment to every other week. BS has a pH of 9.

I am so glad I watched your video!!! I am trying this since I have tried blue shampoo and vinegar and what ever!! still yellow. Apparently I dry my hair everyday and the heat turns it yellow!!! It takes forever to dry my hair so I am trying to let it air dry some what and not use so much heat! Oh also the sun will yellow your hair as well I have been told so I am trying your method as I am so disappointed at the yellowing and looking dull. My hair is as long as yours and I do not want to have short hair so looking for improvement. Thanks

Thank you so much for posting this. Will definitely try it.

I'll be doing this tomorrow. Many thanks!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much I hate yellow I was looking for someone using this mix your the first I found all the others use shampoo which I don't want

Thank you. Well done video. I’m going to try this.

Thank you soooo much I'm trying this!!

But why is it that the yellow only tends to be at the ends of your hair?

Why not use the purple shampoo?

Hi I checked the link and it's no longer there, is there anywhere else I can find it?

Did it affect the darker colors?

Unfortunately I have 75% pigment left and don’t want to bleach it

Dose your hair need to be clean and wash do you wash your hair after

Thank you so much!! I will try this on my yellowing bangs.

What is the creamy hydrogen peroxide? What is the product?

What conditioner are you using? My mother is struggling with this issue

I’ve used peroxide before and it burned my hair up. It was dry/ brittle and took a couple of yrs to regain what was broken off and burned.

Can the leftover be saved for next week’s treatment or does it need to be mixed fresh each time?
