Developlus FCOP0002 Color Oops Hair Color Remover, Extra Strength, Extra Conditioning

Product Information

I’m trying to get rid of my dark brown dye, I’m naturally dark blonde but have been dying it for many years, mostly light ash blonde then the last 3 years dark brown. A quick tip I can give you is to keep a mug of salt water by you as you rinse and midway run this through the hair. Again, with the cap still on, towel dry the hair, detangle it and dry it off on a low air flow and heat setting. If you apply it throughout the whole head it will lighten all the non grey hair and so you won’t get as easier transition into your natural colour as it grows. Then apply the first Decolour Flash Remover sachet mix onto the damp towel dried hair and work it through.

If you choose not to color grey or white hair, use purple shampoo or a product like Aveda’sBlue Malvashampoo and conditioner which won’t turn your hair blue (! Purple dye over blonde hair frequently can come out icky anyway since violet and yellow are opposites on the color wheel and cancel each other out. Use Decolour Remover again, and you should see the grey exposed as a kind of nicotine yellow (this is normal). Color Oops Hair Color Removers are enriched with aloe vera and soy protein to condition and help restructure your hair during the color removal process. For the forseeable future you will be able to create a good grey shade without the need for any kind of permanent colour intervention.Using pigment powder, the ingredients in this pulls colour from the strands in around half an hour leaving a lighter base. It sounds an odd suggestion, but I would actually recommend you apply a pastel lavender shade to this hair (after removal). You could try just continually washing the hair in Cuticleanse and budging the colour molecules this way. I've used it, wasn't particularly damaging, just very drying, so make sure you do a deep conditioning treatment after. Permanent colourants contain hydrogen peroxide in varying strengths, but often in a strong enough volume to lighten hair by a couple of shades.

The whole process may take a while, if you don’t remove the hair dye in one go, but at the end of it, you won’t have to touch up grey roots every couple of weeks any more. Covering the hair in cling film will trap the heat from the scalp between the cap and the cling film, making sure the lifting action of the stripper is boosted. About two months ago I had my hairdresser put a mahogany and dark violet mix through to achieve a rich dark purple (4MV) which I loved.Generally, adding a some highlights every few weeks will break up a root strap and keep the hair blonde and multi-tonal. My idea was to use a clarifying shampoo for a couple of washes, then the colour remover (pink box) followed by the colour stripper (blue box) a week later. When people with mousy hair start going grey, applying just highlights can make the hair appear more mousy and cold. But if you have a usual brand of colourant you can use it but if you use it too soon after removal, the unwanted dark colour can pop back as you need to leave it a good few days before you reapply another peroxide based colourant. Hi Laura, if your hair is blonde and if it was previously lightened, all you should need to do is use Decolour Remover and get that red out.

Around Christmas I dyed my hair with a metallic purple dye, not knowing the problems it would cause me! Today, a lot of permanent brands have access to really good oxidation ingredients that produce good permanent shades that last throughout washes. i have natural dark blonde outgrown roots and the rest of my hair is a light blonde balayage/highlights that have been dyed over many years (last time being over a year ago) and i have recently used a semi permanent purple dye in my hair and really want it out as i am not happy with it !You cannot use any peroxide based products on the hair for at least 3 washes or a week after use of a hair colour remover. You need to apply those balayage panels (via stripping) as you want to break up all those uneven areas.

Here you should find your natural brown lightens to a deep red and the previously coloured areas take to the red well, creating an even shade. Hydrogen Peroxide:To lighten hair color that is too dark, spray your hair with a mixture of equal parts hydrogen peroxide and water. Can I use either your Colour Remover or Colour Stripper to take my hair back to the dyed Light Brown or my grey colour? It’s removed my roots (about an inch long) to a lovely silery white – the rest of my hair (shoulder lenght) is now a dull mauve/lilac instead of the vibrant blue.Then applied a semi-semi-permenant (Wella- true semi) all over hair and wasn’t happy with that, too dark, still gingery. What I would suggest in your situation is you initially do as you (yourself) suggested and apply a semi-permanent (no peroxide or ammonia) grey shade. Hi Scott, I am 45 and have naturally very dark brown hair, which is starting to get some greys, but still predominantly dark brown.
