How to remove hair dye without losing color

Sometimes women dye their hair but soon after they regret it or when they see how they have it shortly after growing they feel the need to remove the dye to regain a beautiful color. But, others prefer to wait for their hair to grow and cut it to be able to have their natural color again and thus be able to have healthy hair again.

But waiting for the hair to grow can be too long a process and if you are not patient, this option may not be the most suitable for you. Many women decide to remove their dye but if they bleach their hair it can damage and spoil it too much, leaving it dry and quite frizzy. For this reason, many women prefer not to remove the dye even if they must be enduring the process, just to avoid bleaching their hair.

When it comes to removing the hair dye, you have to consider the tone you want to achieve, from then on, see which method is the most indicated.. In this case I will teach you simple treatments that you can perform yourself at home, These will help to lower a tone or two of the color of your hair, without causing the same damage that bleaching or sweeping with strong bleaching products does.

Vitamin C to remove the dye

This is a very easy treatment that is made with just 2 homemade ingredients. It is ideal for toning down hair with ammonia-free dyes and allows 1-2 levels of tone to be removed without affecting the natural color. Remember that if your dye was with a product with ammonia, this remedy will not go well because it will not work.

What do you need?

To be able to carry out this home remedy you need effervescent vitamin C tablets and shampoo. You will have to use 1 or 2 tablets of 1,000 mg of vitamin C or 1-2g of vitamin C if you have it as a powdered solution.

What should you do?

If you use tablets, you will need to crush them with a spoon into a powder and place them in a bowl. Add the shampoo and immediately put the powder on the hair previously wet, checking that it is completely covered.

Cover the hair with a plastic cap and check every 5-10 minutes. The maximum time you can leave this mixture is 20 minutes, if you leave it longer, the result will not look good because your strands would dry out too much.

Finally, you will have to rinse and make yourself a nourishing mask. The damage that it can cause to your hair is slight, it may dry it out a bit, That is why it is important to apply the hair mask and do not leave the remedy for longer than the one indicated.o.

Color remover

Using Vitamin C to remove the dye

They are used only to remove natural color dye and not fantasy. These products come in two classes, color spacers and color reducers. They generate minimal damage to the hair and do not alter the natural color, they only remove the artificial color for what they are considered a good option to tone down the previous dye and that you can lower the color a couple of tones and so the dye you had on does not show so much.

They are used 2-3 times a week to remove a permanent color, and it is important to wash your hair after 20 minutes have passed after applying it. They are safe products, but it is important to do a test on a strand before you start. To check if the color has been removed, a 10-volume revealing cream must be applied to a lock of hair, and if it darkens, the process must be repeated.

If you are not very sure about applying this remedy at home you can go to your hairdressing professional to do it, but it would have an additional cost that you want to prefer to save for other expenses.

    A little TIP:
    I had tried the baking soda with the water and vinegar, and the hair is very dry. I put cream rinse all over my head and left it on overnight to get it back. After a week I repeated it WITHOUT THE VINEGAR and it worked the same but WITHOUT DRYING my hair 🙂
