Your hair isn't light enough to put the red over, it'll go a really weird icky brown/grey colour! I'd say just keep using a clarify shampoo until the blue/green is literally pastal or as close as you can get it, it'll take a while but you can't do much until its out unfortunately! Definitely don't use any peroxide dyes because it'll lift your roots! Unfortunately will going natural the most effective thing is TIME! Be patient and let it go through all the yucky colours and lengths!

@kayleeb2310 2 года назад

Red hair dye is a safe color lifter without bleaching- dye your hair red over the black & it will start lifting as you wash your hair over time. Keep repeating this process till it lifts the color completely. This is how I removed black hair dye and and lightened my hair back to red!

@bobbiemc2188 2 года назад

@@kayleeb2310 but she wants to go back to her natural colour, not an artificial colour, so she doesn't want to lift her roots, she wants to match her ends to the roots which is of course ginger so an orange, which won't cover a dark blue/green.

@katerinamudrova7928 2 года назад

As a ginger who has dyed her hair black and tried to get back to red, no amount of vit C and dandruff shampoo will get you there, and dying your hair red at this stage will only make things worse. I would go for a proffesional dye remover/lifter (not bleach), it should get your hair to light-ish brown, then you can tone copper and it will fade nicely 👌

My friend is also my hair stylist and we've used Malibu DDL (Direct Dye Lifter) on Arctic Fox before and it's worked great! You can mix it with either low vol developer or just water (for a more gentle lift) and it targets the specific pigments of semi-permanent dyes. But definitely avoid putting more color or dye on top of what you have now, as it would just compound the pigments and not actually "cancel" it out, esp if your cuticle is still open from bleach.

@rozinamouz9286 2 года назад

I agree with what some of the others have said. At this point I dont think more hair dye will get the result you want alex. The only red I can think of that would pick up now is a permanent fire red, but that looks nothing like your natural ginger and idk how it will wash out. A full on color correction would be the ideal but that’s impossible rn. If it was me I’d do as many color removers as I could (color oops, schwarzkopf and guy tang come to mind) and possibly a bleach bath THEN add hair dye to match the regrowth (with slight color correction if needed). Semi permanents wont do much now. Unfortunately to get healthy hair in the long run we need to damage what we have now.

@Pipppo 2 года назад

A bleach bath will just damage the hair more, and she's been trying to repair it with olaplex. :/ I say either try more colour removal or just wait for it to grow out and keep getting the ends cut (or just get a buzz cut and start fresh).

@rozinamouz9286 2 года назад

@@PalitoSelvatico but thats not how hair works. A color remover wont do anything to virgin hair but it will lift out the colors. Her roots now are perfectly fine, they just look a little strange cause of the rest of the hair. When messing with hair "chemicals" its better to trust the process than be afraid of using them and just pile dye on top of itself

@cystalinum2461 2 года назад

To my favorite RU-vidr, If you put red dye over your hair currently it won’t turn red, it’ll maybe turn brown or a purple. I suggest you please put a hair color remover like color ops and apply it in fine sections. You should remove as much of the blue as possible because if you put red over it’ll be uneven. Your roots will be bright red and your ends will be purple or brown. Love you Alex I hope you consider it.

@9melissal 2 года назад

Instead if adding more dye, since you're trying to get back to your actual hair, you should try color remover. There are many non bleach color removers like color oops and Malibu ddl.

@rozinamouz9286 2 года назад

@MiaMizuno 2 года назад

I also did the color remover last year. If you follow the instructions 100% (also like washing it under cold water for straight 10 Minutes, etc.) it works perfectly fine. I was astonished, as when the stuff was in my hair for about an hour, I did not see any change first.

@courtney8268 2 года назад

I completely agree. I would suggest using Color Oops (being very careful to follow package directions), then deep condition, then dying the regrowth a light ginger. Redying will just lead to the problem becoming worse. I've used color oops many times on my long hair and it just makes it dry for about a week and then it's back to normal after a few conditioning treatments.

@KiaDraven 2 года назад

Yes and it is good to add, certain color removers do not work on direct dyes such as manic panic / artic Fox Color b4 does not recommend it, but I have used color opps on direct dyes with good results. If you can get to a beauty supply store all the better, they have direct dye removers.

@celestialillust 2 года назад

Her hair is bleached blonde so doing color remover will just bring her back to a nasty green/blue after this black. she'd have to put red on until her regrowth/natural hair grows back

@courtney8268 2 года назад

I would really highly suggest using Color Oops or something similar. Follow the directions very carefully and it will strip out this color. The box says it's only for permanent color, but I've used it on direct dyes like arctic fox and it's worked very well. Your hair will be dry for a few days, but just deep condition and it will go back to normal. Then you can try dying your hair to match your natural color. Doing things like vitamin C or clarifying shampoo will only get you so far, and your hair isn't nearly light enough to take a red like the one you are going for.

@LarrietDarling 2 года назад

The red dye will turn the green a brownish gray, most likely, and the blue will turn purple. You should try Color Oops, but be sure to watch AKA Aislinn's video on it first, so you know how to not smell like sulfur forever, and so you can get it to be its most effective. She also uses heat with her Vitamin C treatments.

@cheyennedoyen3134 2 года назад

Color oops doesn't work on the more colorful dyes sadly. Guy Tang has a color remover but I think you may need a Cosmo license to buy (at least here in the US) and it took every ounce of blue out of my hair!

@jacquelinetremblay4166 2 года назад

Thank you so much for saying this! canceling colors out does not mean overpowering and so many people don't understand that "canceling out" actually ends up at a neutral

@alys4570 2 года назад

Just a little something she should know before using Color oops: it will change her natural color and she risks hindering her curl pattern. Color oops was damaging to my hair and changed its texture . The other risk is if you decide to use bleach after (even if it’s quite some time after) , it can bring the color you were trying to remove or some other strange color back during the bleaching process.

@lillieschlitz 2 года назад

Just to let you know (from someone who went from Christmas tree green back to a dark red/fire truck red) red cancels out green in the sense it'll turn your hair brown. So when you are picking colors maybe take a color wheel picture. It is very hard to get back to red but don't be discouraged you will get there! It took me a year to get there after a hair stylist damaged my hair so severely I'm finally back to a 5RV (level 5 red violet) and fire truck red ends. Also look into keracolor shampoo. Or punky shampoo. They have color depositing shampoos that can keep your hair vibrant and help you start getting back to red. (Don't worry that it's super bright it fades more normal after a few washes) tea tree also helps take out color but don't use it on the red since you're trying to keep the red. 💜

@Mothman_In_a_T-Pose 2 года назад

Toning conditioners work a treat, too! I've used various ones over the years to achieve truer colors and shift the undertones of various shades. I'm naturally ash blonde, and used to have my hair highlighted blonde; it always left the blonde a little cold and a nudge green due to the truly dishwater color of my natural hair. I used a bronze toner to warm the blonde up as well as warm my natural color up, and it was absolutely lovely.

@elizabeth9996 2 года назад

You can take Artic Fox color and mix with your conditioner to keep your color vibrant

Clarifying/dandruff shampoo 10-15 washes with several minute soaks in between. Dipping in hot salt water and leaving there for half an hour, rinse, wait for hair to dry and repeat Colour strippers (could cause some damage but a lot less than straight up bleach) Several days of equal amounts dish soap shampoo (I know you tried this before in the vid you linked but it really worked for my cousin) Go swimming in a chlorinated pool then sunbleach. May have some natural damage but shouldn't be significant

@litacakes3422 2 года назад

A decade of hair dying my own hair tells me to tell you GOOD LUCK. Any color with a blue undertone is the hardest to remove or color over. My best suggestion is to do a VERY LIGHT bleaching, just to get the darkest bits to lighten (or a few treatments of professional strength lightener) Then use a natural ginger/red tone over it, but test it first on a few under strands to see how it reacts. Anything you do going forward, I'd say test on a few under strands. Black/blue are very hard to get out. Pinks are the second hardest and you did manage that pretty well, so I think you'll do alright. Good luck! PLEASE NOTE: I am not a hair professional, just giving my own experiences

The conditioner and hair masks take up space in the hair shaft and help push out the dye molecules. It really helped my situation immensely. BUT it will take a few weeks.

@becberry 2 года назад

I'm a natural red head that dyed my hair black for 6 years and how I got back to my natural colour took around 4 months because of the many layers of permanent dye and I didn't want to destroy my hair. Going blonde first and then dying it a shade or so brighter than my natural colour let it fade out to match my roots. Having patience and using repairing products alongside the lightening process is key! The idea of trying to get rid of black in a short period of time scares the heck out of me, but you do you Alex 😅 There are many helpful resources out there!

@kinhaamorim0 2 года назад

I once tried the vit c + shampoo thing to strip blue dye from my hair and it did almost nothing. The best thing i've ever used was bleach powder (just the powder, without the developer) + shampoo! You mix 1 part of powder with 2 parts of shampoo and leave it for some time on your hair (i used to leave it for 30 min) and then you rinse. It did wonders for my hair when i was trying to remove the pink colour i was using, maybe you should look that up to see if it works for you!

@jenniferford2067 2 года назад

Red cancels out green in the way that it will make it brown/gray. You want to remove as much green as possible if you want the end result to be red. Direct deposit hair removers are you best bet. Better than the vitamin C. If you add more color over the many shades of green and blue it will still be many shades of weird and those tones will just add more pigments you are trying to remove. As an experiment it’s fun but if you want to be done with all the crazy hair I would suggest patience and stripping out the black before you move on. The greens and blues are normal, but you will really struggle to get red from where you are right now.

Dont put red hair dye on that hair, even with hair color theory is still true and it WILL turn your hair purple. Do not. Put red on it. Try maybe just putting a neutral brown over it, or try pulling out the blue evn more. Orange will probably cancel out the blue and give you a more natural color. Source: im a licensed cosmetologist

@sofapop653 2 года назад

I think you’d be fine going into the salon. You’re seeing friends, going out, and such, so… I don’t see a great risk in comparison. At this point buzzing your head would be a better option than doing it at home yourself like you are. You’ll eventually have to cut all of this hair off anyway, because it’s going to be so wrecked. I say all of this with the best intentions. 👍🏻

@Mothman_In_a_T-Pose 2 года назад

I politely disagree. When hanging out with friends, you know the risk. You and your friends can all trust that you are prioritizing each others' health, and you know if your friends are vaccinated or not. With my friends, if any one of us feels even slightly sniffly or has the hint of a sore throat, we reschedule. If anyone in our circle was potentially exposed, we reschedule. In the one instance where we couldn't, the one exposed kept his mask on the entire night and kept distance from the rest of us. Going out, likewise, poses little risk; if where Alex lives is anything like where I live, restaurants mandate proof of vaccination for guests, as well as a valid form of identification to confirm. No vaccination, no reservation. Masks stay on until the food is brought out, and the restaurant will ask you repeatedly to comply. One restaurant I was at kicked out some people because they took their masks off before they got to their table and wouldn't put them back on. Salons are different. You are in very close contact with a person you don't know the vaccination or exposure status of. Not all salons mandate proof of vaccination, and may not enforce distancing between guests. You may need to take off your mask, as well, depending on the situation. Right now, it's safer to just do it at home. And if it does get wrecked along the way, so what? Hair grows back.

I'm still in love with the pixie cut style on you. It's so classy!

@scandisnowgirl3696 2 года назад

This is going to be rough. Black hair dye is difficult to remove. You're lucky that your hair is short though. My suggestion is to do a couple bleach baths. Mix 1/2 and half shampoo and bleach. It's more gentle on the hair and will lift it still

@RS-bn1ty 2 года назад

I haven’t dyed pieces of black in my hair since high school days and that’s true, took forever to grow out the black

@GalacticGoddess46 2 года назад

Just shave it. I did and it was fabulous! I liked it so much I kept it a number 3 for almost a year.

@jackiereveles 2 года назад

Honestly at this point, why not just shave it off? You'd get your natural red back, healthy hair growth, and you can experiment with wigs!

@professionalcommenter 2 года назад

I think that's the best option.

@vanessah314 2 года назад

I agree with this, or just going shorter and let it grow out. If she did a legit pixie even she'd be likely end up with little to no black in maybe 3 months on the top? Never really noticed how fast Alex's hair grows. Obviously shaving it would get the result a lot quicker but sometimes that's hard to commit to.

I know the end result on this is not what you wanted but about a decade ago, this was in a lot of salons and I really like it on you! Good luck with the hair journey!

@Usagibunnneh 2 года назад

You'll likely do less damage if you did a bleach shampoo (aka a soap cap) than using clarifying shampoo and vitamin C over and over. It will likely turn out patchy, but if you can get enough dye out, you can dye over with maybe a burgundy and work your way to a red, and then let that fade out with your natural hair. Or you could just cut off all the black and just grow out your roots :P

@muuuumipappa 2 года назад

I agree, using a bleach/shampoo mix or just straight up bleach would probably do less damage than using clarifying shampoo and vitamin C so many times. Sulphur based colour remover before bleach might work also.

@Annie1962 2 года назад

with all the cuts, the colours, I am wondering whatever did your hair do to you to earn such punishment?

@DMK48906 2 года назад

2 years ago I cut every bit of dye out of my hair and haven't looked back. I was dying my hair to color over grey in an attempt to fight aging. Guess what? It didn't work lol. I'm still getting older every day but now I don't have to worry about regrowth or looking "older". Like it or lump it I am me. I do really love you with that cut though, it's simply gorgeous on you! Good luck with your hair journey.

@ambertestorelli1436 2 года назад

Or just leave it alone and have patience. I dyed my hair black for years and it always faded significantly in a few months. I went super blond after ↖️ picture of my blond now. It is obvious to most that follow you that you want your natural back. For a full color correction you have to have patience and just allow some time to pass. If you go in now with color correction or bleach you may lose all the hair you have. Remember that you will not just be going through the black but every color you have put on it recently.

@Lunarj 2 года назад

Alex please. I’m begging. Stop messing with your hair. Give it a freaking break and let it grow out. Jfc.

@paolarusiles3251 2 года назад

I would recommend doing a quick bleach bath! Bleach baths are so much easier and user friendly than regular bleach because it actually lathers so there's no need to use a certain technique. It won't get out all of the colors on there but it will attack the blue and lighten any other colors so once you add the red it'll actually come out red instead of brown like some other comments are saying. Even a 1:3 bleach to shampoo ratio will be very helpful and little to not damaging at all.

@smiley6783 2 года назад

I've found that replacing the shampoo with conditioner or a conditioner mask kind of counteracts the damage and leaves your hair feeling alright after

@lofish72 2 года назад

Not sure if it’s the same in Australia but n Panama there is a limit of how many clients can be in the salon at the same time. So the salons are not full, and you have to set up an appointment. Also, the can come to your house to cut your hair. I’ve never gotten covid in all this time. I wear a mas when i go to the salon and hairstylists are careful too.

@brasstail 2 года назад

I’d be careful with hair dye - the chemicals in the dyes may interact with the chemicals you already have in your hair and turn it into something you aren’t expecting!

@ashleyberrisford 2 года назад

I think using a colour remover once or twice and then maybe going over it with a more auburn colour would be great! ☺️ that way when your roots come through it shouldn’t look too bad and it means you’re already close to your natural colour
