How to wash dark hair dye at home?

Experiments with hair, starting with a haircut and ending with a color change, are quite popular among most women. Even in adolescence, girls seek to find something of their own, transform themselves and show the whole world how beautiful they are. A huge selection of hairstyles, a large palette of shades and color options will help change the appearance beyond recognition. However, not always everything turns out perfectly.

Attempts to dye your hair at home often lead to a number of mistakes in the form of spoiled hair or a color that hardly anyone will like.

One of the most common mistakes is to assume that the color on the hair will be the same as on the package from the paint. In the salons, experts select the paint depending on the structure of the hair, the natural shade and color, which should be the result. And even they do not always succeed in doing their job perfectly, because it is not known how this or that shade will look when applied to curls. You can return the natural color at home, but this is a rather complicated process, therefore, they most often turn to specialists.

If you still do it yourself, you need to choose the right tool that will cause minimal harm to the colored strands. The action of washing is to break down the pigments of the paint, which are located in curls. Due to this, the hair deteriorates less than during bleaching. There is a superficial and deep wash.The first one has a milder effect on the hair and is used to correct the shade, while the second one allows you to radically change the color, for example, in cases where you want to wash off dark and black tones.

Consider the most popular professional brands: Estel, Brelil Professional and L'Oreal.

Estel offers us an emulsion for removing permanent dyes from Color off hair. The catalyst, reducing agent and neutralizer in 120 ml bottles allow you to remove color from the hair, while maintaining a good condition of curls. Estel declares that this wash does not contain ammonia in its composition, and also guarantees the absence of brightening components.

This tool has reviews - both good and bad. Efficiency, lack of ammonia in the composition, ease of use and quick action make you immediately buy a wash. but the product is useless when coloring hair with henna or basma and, in addition, has a pungent odor. The cost is relatively low - 400-500 rubles.

Depending on the color that needs to be washed off, the result may not live up to expectations the first time. To remove black or dark chestnut paint, it is recommended to use a wash 2-3 times. This will not affect the quality of curls, so the tool is recommended even in salons.

For 2 bottles of 120 ml they ask about 800 rubles, which is a little expensive. For this amount, we receive a guarantee from the manufacturer that for 1 application at least 2 layers of paint are removed. Proteins and fruit acids in the composition allow you to keep your hair in excellent condition and give them a healthy shine.

And this is actually so. Absolutely all the girls note that the color is washed off the first time, and the curls do not suffer at all, because there is no ammonia in the composition. The only negative is the price. Not everyone is ready to pay so much even for a product that does not spoil the structure of the hair and helps to remove the coloring pigment without touching the natural color.

Also a pretty popular hair wash. In the box are 12 sachets of powder of 28 grams each. For a slight correction of the shade, the powder is diluted in hot water. To remove color from dark hair, the powder is mixed with an oxidizing cream. From this it follows that the wash slightly brightens the curls. Due to this, the dye is quickly removed from the hair, but their structure is slightly spoiled. A large number of positive reviews make sure that this wash best returns the natural color.

You can remove unsuccessful dye from the hair with the help of folk remedies.

• With the help of fermented milk drinks. To do this, choose products with a high percentage of fat content. The acidic environment of such products softens the hair and leaches the coloring pigment. Of course, it will not be possible to remove dark and black shades at one time, but for 3-4 applications this is quite possible to do.
• Honey. To remove the dye, honey is sometimes used. It is densely applied to strands, wrapped with polyethylene and left overnight. The easiest way to remove light shades, and girls with dark hair should choose a different method.
• Mayonnaise. Lemon juice, mixed with mayonnaise, with prolonged use removes dye and helps strengthen hair. Citric acid removes pigment, and mayonnaise speeds up this process, eliminates the dryness of the tips and nourishes the cells.
• Soda. This product is mixed with water and lemon juice, and then applied to the hair. It is important to remember that soda works stronger than professional washes, however, it very dries curls.
• Vitamin C. Ascorbic acid is mixed with shampoo and left under a shower cap for 1 hour. Color can be deduced in 3-5 applications and do not spoil the hair structure.
• Vegetable oil. Masks with oils in the composition are not suitable for everyone, so you should try them carefully. Castor oil is most often used, since it best removes artificial dark pigments for 2-3 applications.
