Like, bleaching is out of the question , so when I take the color out will it lighten it some because after I plan to use a high resolution golden brown dye mixed with a neutral brown dye so instead of bleaching it, would that lighten it?

The Colorfix will only 'lighten' it to the stage it reached when you colored ur hair before the color itself was deposited. So no it won't actually lighten ur hair, but using it WILL make ur hair lightER to the stage at which the permanent dye lightened it. Hope this explains it clearly enough!

Does Colorfix work on semipermanent dye? I started life with
medium brown hair, dyed it a very dark brown with semipermanent dye for
years, and now want to go to medium golden brown permanent dye.
Semipermanent dye is actually incredibly tenacious. I've been
washing it out for four months, using Prell as often as I can without
drying out my hair, and volume conditioner which is supposed to expand
the hair shaft and help release dye. I now have ombre hair--my natural
color (now mixed with gray) for the first third, a darker slightly
reddish brown for the middle third, and a brown only slighter lighter
than the dark dye on the last third. Looks awful, it's a good
thing I work at home. Will Colorfix get rid of the rest of the
dye without frying my hair (which is very fine and mid-back length)? Thanks, Fran |
