I recently was a hair model for a hair show and had my auburn hair dyed a real dark colour. Although its not as dark as it was its not fading fast enough-i want my auburn hew back. I know they used a semi in the salon and if i persivere the colour will fade (i have been using head and shoulders to help strip the colour!!). I was thinking of doing a bleach bath which i have done in the past but ive completely forgotten how to do it. Anyone know???
thanx

bleach bath mix;
bleach powder
30ml 20 vol developer
15 ml shampoo
30ml water
Dont leave on for any longer than 3/5 mins, keep an eye on the colour lifting.

That great, a wee tip if I may, apply conditioner towel dries hair and wrap hair in a towel to keep heat in leave on for 30 mins and then rinse. Do this once a week or fortnight will help the condition of your hair, especially after the bleach bath.

a great thing to use also is schwartzkoph "bonacure" shampoo and conditioner.....it has protein in it so will help get the darkness out and your hair will rebound wonderfully. these products are fabulous! ------------- happy coloring |
