Alright! I will try again on my own. The last time,even though I tried to be light handed, they were orange and about a quarter inch into the roots. Oh well, live and learn. I will try again very lightly!

yes breh has found a new product i've yet to try it but people need to not be afraid to do it for yourself.. get in the game all the way.. altho i realize some our challenged with our skills but its really easy once you do it, it get better in time..
I know a lot of CVs use fabric dye, but I found a kit at Sally's called Beyond the Zone On/Off Scalp Bleach kit. It bleached my knots like nobodys business. I basically just mixed a little of the bleach and develper in the bowl that came with the kit so that it was a yougart like consistency and then lightly spread it on the inside of the cap. Be very light handed so that you do not push the bleach through the holes onto the hair and move quickly as well so you dont over bleach the knots. I left it on probably about 10 mins. I then rinsed the bleach off the knots and cap thouroughly. I checked to see if they were my desired color, and they weren't so I bleached them again for about 5 mins, rinsed, washed, conditioned, sealed, and let air dry. That's it, very simple no vasaline is need. I never heard of anyone using vasaline on their cap befor bleaching knots. I have heard of applying a light coating of vasaline or spraying the cap with cooking spray before you color your lf to protect the knots.

well actually some do they are just not to your liking.. and then some colors are so dark you can't tell if they have or not.. some vendors do bleach them but their quality isn't great so its not worth it for the knots only... that's why you reallly need to try to learn or send them to someone that will bleach them for you..
