This will work for some people and won’t work for others. It depends on your hair history, what colors you used and so many other factors. I’ve done This SO many times and my hair has never fallen out. That being said just because mine didn’t fall out doesn’t mean your hair won’t. If your doing some weird at home mix of things like I do YOU are risking damage to your hair. I made this video because it has been a life saver for me. If YOU choose to do this YOU are taking a risk, it’s not on me. Mmkkkaayyyy????
girl like i told you a few months ago, this worked PHENOMENALLY on my hair. like i’ll never ever use another way. everyone’s hair is different tho, & that’s just common sense. all you did is suggest it🙃
I change my hair color every few months and I usually use bleach baths to remove color from my hair, because nothing else really works. Is this comparable to a bleach bath, in how well it removes color?
Depends on the color. It doesnt work that well on blue and green hair I’ve had the most success with purple pink and orange colors. In my opinion it’s way less damaging than bleaching your hair 👍🏻💕
Hey hun, as a hairstylist I love watching your videos and seeing all your creativeness! however I just want to let you know any time you use developer you should really be wearing gloves to protect your hands. It may not seem like a big deal but over time it can really mess with your skin and such! Keep up your eccentric style, I look forward to seeing more of your content!
@@hayleyaddair8281 i've recently discovered that if you DO use your hands, you can rinse with vinegar and it immediately stops the chemical reaction. no peeling dead skin!!!
If you only have 20 vol - mix it with water 50/50 = 10 volume. For example 2 ounces of 20 vol mixed with 2 ounces of water = 4 ounces of 10 volume developer ( thats what we do in the salons) If you'd rather use 5 volume then water it down a little more!
This worked flawlessly on my hair. Bleached my hair then used a “silver” semi-permanent that turned out to be purple. This also happened to be at like 3am and I had shit to do the next day. In panic, I came here and literally had everything you mentioned. I used a 20 developer and went a little heavier than you did. Left in for 30 mins and my hair is now a light metallic blonde. Life saver! And for what it’s worth, I can confirm that this recipe works on black natural hair bleached to platinum blonde.
I did this method and LISTEN it removed all the pink and the orange I had since months on my blonde hair. Now I'm blonde again uhuh Thanks gurl!!! Love you
So I tried this and it worked for me! 👏🏼 It got rid of all the permanent pink and a semi permanent pink and now I’m back with the bleached hair I was before. I also used some ion booster in the mixture 🙌🏼 Thank you so much for sharing this ❤️ Keep up the good work! ☺️
I did this today and it worked and removed all the dark pink out of my hair...Thank you for the tutorial. I will be using this method as my go to removal process.
@@jessibuck98 you're right! Sometimes you get better bargains at local grocery stores 🙂. Thanks for posting that because I didn't think about that myself.
@@jessibuck98 yes, but in some places like new york city its expensive and you'll rarely find those bargains at least for me i had i a hard time for it, im content with spending a dollar at the dollar tree
I tried this method without dandruff shampoo and only used purple shampoo and dawn dish soap, baking soda and 20 developer. My hair was faded Extreme Teal by Overtone. I dyed my hair twice, and my roots are coming back in. I'm applying for jobs and need to get it all out so I have a more professional hairstyle for my next job. This WORKED FOR ME! My hair is normal wavy and I have a buzzed side pixie cut, so very short hair. I've only dyed it this once, so the method stripped almost all of the color out. There are some blue areas where it was still pretty vibrant in the middle, but overall this worked wonders and toned down the original yellow bits of the original bleach blonde. Thanks for the tips!
By the way, for all things when using chemicals or bleach: let your hair get oily. Do the treatment after 5-6 days of not washing your hair. The more oil the better! Maybe do a few masks beforehand if your hair is already dry. Also doing a 15 minute mask afterwards helps. NEVER do this after you just washed your hair the night before. Your hair will be too clean and may become suuuper dry or damaged.
Ive literally followed you for years and literallly this video is the life saver for all my crazy hair adventures lol this is a MUST for anyone who dyes their hair alot!!!!!!!!
For anyone worried about doing this on damaged hair, it does vary for everybody but half of my bangs I recently bleached and dyed green. I bleached them once again after this and used this method today to make the ends lighter. My hair is damaged, but I have thick hair and it has NOT made my hair break more or fall out. However if you have thin hair it may affect it more, I’m not sure. Like she says do it at your own risk but for me it was fine - it should be fine for you too If you have damaged hair. And yes it did work but slightly so I’ll have to do it a few more times to get the colour I want.
I freaking love u Literally Just woke up and I’m watching u again and immediately wanna do my hair HAHAHAA thanks for teaching us not to be afraid ! It’s all fun
@@alejandrab1989 I want to dye my hair with semi permanent dye from Lime Crime afterwards, should I do this hair mask after doing the Lime Crime? Or after the baking soda method before the Lime Crime?
@@Sarah-fe6yh definitely after the baking soda I would suggest you do a leave on mask treatment because the hair is so fragile then after dying the hair a deep conditioner should work
I have this mixture in my hair right now, why am I seeing the damaged hair comments just now 😭😭 I'm scared! It's not super damaged as I had a cut not too long ago but the length is already above my shoulders now, pray for me
@@ardoriayolagdinok9724 Yes! A little dry, but I have very hydrating hair masks that will help. It took out a lot of colour because I had rainbow hair, I'll do another round or find a more gentle way to remove the rest, then I'll be back to white blonde. Though my tips are still very blue, so I might put some purple over that for a dip dye effect cuz I don't expect the blue to come out
You are an angel from heaven! I accidentally used too much red-gold eliminator to tone down brass and ended up with purple/gray hair. Two rounds of this process took it right out without going back to brass. Thank you!
So I started with virgin hair, and used blue bleach powder and 40 developer, processed 40mins. I then used wella T18 toner, procesed 5 mins. It turned my hair a silvery purple. I then used this treatment, processed for 35mins and it removed all the purple and got the white hair I was looking for. Thanks so much for posting this hair treatment, it worked great!
This is by faar THE BEST TECHNIQUE i have ever tried for stripping color out. It got rid of my hot hot pink hair and IM SHOOCK!! No damage at all 😍😍💗💗 love your content!!
I did this to get the last bit of blue out of my hair....and..welll...my hair fell out...I had like 5 strands of hair left after brushing!!...I had to cut all my hair off into a pixie cut!...not saying that this doesnt work..it deff does...but my hair was super damaged before hand..so I wouldnt recommend doing this if ur hair is super damaged prior to this because baking soda is really harsh on ur hair...I deff learned my lesson!!
Did this without purple shampoo and dandruff shampoo I did use Castile soap though and it still lightened it now I do know it doesn’t work for everyone and I’m doing this on green/blue hair and it worked
I just tried this with full on pink and purple ends and it took it all out!! ✨✨ It left my hair a little dry but put some moisturizing stuff and oils, all good now 👌👌 oh yea I have super curly thick hair, so that probably helped with it not damaging.
I just tried this and it worked really well! Pulled all of my dark pink/purple tones out to a solid light blonde but my turquoise and blue tones are still there. My hair is pretty healthy and I use a ton of moisturizing conditioner and coconut oil serum on it. I am going in for a second round to see how much of this green/blue I can get out.
Worked like a charm to get the remnants of my 11 month old AF purple out of my hair so I can do a new color! I used a great conditioning treatment afterwards and I have a rule of never bleaching my hair more than twice a year (last time was 11 months ago for my roots only), so even though some strands of my hair have come out, I don’t mind because my hair is so thick and fine that I can afford to lose some without notice. Next up: bleach roots, tone, and NEW COLOR! Thank you so much! 💜💙💜💙
If your hair is already damaged, use coconut oil beforehand(like a deep conditioning treatment), don't rinse and apply selsun blue(anti dandruff shampoo) and crushed vitamin c tablets. Leave on for about 30 minutes and rinse then deep condition again.
Hi, love your hair work, it's entertaining to watch. now for this hair color removal, i have used OOPS that has worked for me pretty well and when i saw this video, it looked awesome. BUT without propper meassurements, it metaled a few patches of my hair. so i have to carefully comb my hair out when it dries from a shower. It did okay of removing a bit of the color out, but not as much. the purple shampoo did help of getting the yellow out, so now the yellow is a silver, LOL. This is my update for you of how I handled it, in the process i'm going to let my hair grow out and then cut away the hair I have "damaged" over the times of coloring and lightly CAREFULLY bleaching my hair. thank you so much for the videos you post up, love your work and stay beautiful!!!!
I know this is an older video, but this worked perfect;y for me. I didn't tone as much as I hoped but did return it back to the yellow blonde it was before I dyed it. Amazing! But now I need some sort of mask or something.
Ah thank you! This method totally works. It totally stripped my hair of bright pink Crazy Color. The only bad thing though is that I forgot I had green under the pink, and I now have a groggy green blonde color 😂. Oh well!
DONT USE THIS METHOD IF YOUR HAIR IS ALREADY CHEMICALLY DAMAGED. I did this and my hair thinned out so much I could barely do anything with it without someone asking if I'm balding.
If your hair is already damaged, use coconut oil beforehand(like a deep conditioning treatment), don't rinse and apply selsun blue(anti dandruff shampoo) and crushed vitamin c tablets. Leave on for about 30 minutes and rinse!!
This won’t happen to everyone though? It depends on your hair type and history like she says in her comment. Mines damaged kinda bad but I have it in my hair right now and it’ll be fine.
I dyed my hair purple with the horrible colorista washout and was perfect but looked like a wig a super fake horrible purple, a I did this and my hair turned out grey and still a bit purple, but they look beautiful! They I have this icy color, the only thing is the hair are a bit dry from the treatment but definitely worth it! Thank you
Hey aislinn! Thank you so much for this video! I tried it out on my green hair and it worked!!! I made a video on it and gave you credit for it. I’m so glad I found this video else I would probably ended up using bleach 😭😭
I tried this method just the other day. It took most of the pink out of my hair but not much of the blue. The blue turned bright greenish lol. I literally thought id have to shave my head bald because the mixture wouldn't rinse out of my hair 😂 It was like never ending soap suds. I almost had a panic attack lmao.
I just did this on my hair. I had virgin brunette hair (regrowth from chemo) that I lightened and did a dusty rose color. I want to try something diff and this made it a perfect natural blonde! I don’t want to color it now!!
I see people saying that this ruined their hair?? It did that for me the first time I did it, BUT I highly believe it's because I put a shit ton of baking soda in it!! Like, be careful with how much you use. Also, use 10 vol developer and not 20,30,40 . Lmao. Second time worked much better and I deep conditioned right away
Why do you say definitely don’t use 20, 30 or 40 ? I’m in a pinch & wondering can I just use a teeny bit of 40 ? That’s all I have ! Or would the mixture work at all without it ? Please help if you have any advice !
I have this mixture on my head right now! Clairol Purple Shampoo, Blue Dawn Soap, Head & Shoulders Classic, Baking Soda, 30 Developer (it was the only developer I had) I used Color Fix and it made my hair random shades of deep orange, and yellow at my roots. I did a 2 month wait before trying this. I’ll let you know if I’m bald or not! UPDATE: I left it on for 45 minutes and it didn’t do much, so I did another 10 minute treatment, still not even close to her white hair. So I did a stronger solution with just baking soda, developer, and dandruff shampoo. My hair is lighter but I think I’ll go to a professional once quarantine is over.
This only works if your hair was already platinum before. It won't do as good of a job of lightening hair. If you are looking to go white and weren't platinum before, I would just do a normal bleaching instead. This is to remove direct dyes, not lift color further.
I’m trying this right now, I have ash blonde roots but I have box dye red/burgundy hair from a permanent box dye, I mixed Purple shampoo Baking soda Dawn dish soap Head and shoulders shampoo 20 volume developer Will check in 30 mins might keep on for 45mins to an hour :) hoping most of the colour comes out.
So I did this and my hair started falling out. I totally think it was on me and I trying to add more baking soda then suggested to make it thicker. DONT DO THAT! Lol. And like any hair dye job start from the ends and work your way up to the roots. Another thing!!!! Under no circumstance should you use any developer above volume 10. If you do you have such a higher risk I'm making your hair fall out. If you're really scared but want to try I would suggest a strand test just like any hair dye would have you do so you can also see how 1) your hair reaction 2) if it's actually worth the time, effort and money 3) how much you will actually need. Hope this is helpful ♥️ and please learn from my mistakes 😂🤷
From what I see which I'm gonna to this today or tomorrow I have red on the front of my hair and black in the back they say use equal parts of everything and use a 10 developer they say you can use a 20 but I'm not to sure on that
I read to use powdered absorbic acid, with dawn, rather than baking soda. Developer is hydrogen peroxide, and along with baking soda, that is, in itself, the ingredients of most teeth whitening products.
Dea' I use powdered ascorbic acid (vitamin c) mixed with shampoo to remove my hair colour. I don’t add developer, which is far too damaging to my already bleached hair. The vitamin C method works well but is slower than this method since you need to do it a few times to get it back to blonde (or close enough). It’s also a bit drying so I always do a deep condition after.
This process doesn't really damage it but it does really dry it out Because baking soda is stripping everything in your hair, the unnatural pigment, The built up product, and the oils. So it does make your hair very dry! Definitely deep condition afterwards
Worked amazingly for pink/purple/lavender semi-permanent color!!!! I will definitely use this method in the future! Thanks for all you do, Aislinn! 😻🌈✨🫧
I had a stubborn blue in my hair , I used 1 ounce of bleach powder 4 ounces of dandruff shampoo 1 teaspoon of coconut oil 2 teaspoons of olive oil it came out in 4 washes, didnt damage my hair like every other one I tried, plus the bleach isnt even activated so it doesnt damage your hair
I’m so trying this method I have green and blue hair I’m gonna let it fade a bit first and do a deep hair mask treatment before I damage it again thank you 🙏 😊❤️🤟
Any of my ladies thinking of trying this on their wig. DONT it worked well on the hair but it completely ruined my closure so DO NOT PUT THIS ON LACE OF ANY KIND❗❗ just a warning 😊
Why the heck are yall using dawn disliquid when you do not know what chemicals are in it? Anyway afterwards please do a wheat protein treatment and neutralize your hair to help restore the ph. You can also do a collagen or gelatin treatment for your protein.
I actually did this same mix before seeing this video, and it didn't take much of the color out for me :( I used Iroiro's pink, diluted with conditioner, and came out brighter than I wanted. I did a bleach bath 5 days later, and also only removed a TINY amount of the color. It's surprisingly been difficult trying to fade this color.
Im tempted to do this but idk if it'll help. I just want this stubborn red to lift already, especially since im planning on using a green based blue soon.
I had some bright neon red for several months during quarantine. I think there’s something about red pigments that make them stubborn. I tried all sorts of “no damage” methods and products to cover and remove it but what ended up working was just using permanent dye that matched my natural color.
So I just tried this.. my situation was I used splat purple dye and my hair rejected half of it, so I then put a permanent purple on and it still rejected it. So I tried this. My hair is now blotchy lighter pink, and my roots are YELLOW! I was hoping and praying this would work, but unfortunately, because, what I believe is that the splat is what rejected this from working. So probably don’t use this if it’s splat!
How do you guys think this would work with vitamin c instead of developer? she used so little... I'm trying to get some old blue out of VERY lifted hair. and don't have developer atm.
I used Ajax bleach alternative...baking soda...20 volume... purple shampoo and head and shoulders...it stripped the neon green I had back to aqua blue the previous color but my roots are still neon green...next up is a bleach bath
I want to try this with my purple hair. I want to go pink so it wouldn’t be blonde. Would it work with clarifying shampoo instead of purple shampoo since I’m just dying it pink right after?
Hi Aislinn, what / how would you do this if you have half a head of your natural dark brown hair and the other half is grown-out previously lightened (dyed) ? Which hair gets worked on first? Natural dark or previously dye-lightened? Or all at once?
Think i can try this without the purple shampoo?🤔 Its the only thing i dont have and my hair is dark green that hasnt faded at all in 2 months 😅 help 😢
It didn't do anything to my hair, either. However, I'd been using pink color depositing shampoo/conditioner over the last two months, so that may have been the issue.
Arctic fox purples are hard to get out. I'm at a pale violet dream closest to my scalp but the rest is back to blonde. If you can sit out in the sun or chlorine
