Make sure you have at least two hours to spare at home if you are
doing this.
This isn't supposed to lighten your natural hair color if
that's what you're looking for. It may lighten it a little bit, but it's not
what it's meant for. This is for removing hair artificial dye color.
Ingredients:
Vitamin C tablets. I purchased mine at dollar general stores for only $3.00.
Shampoo (Clarifying shampoo works best, but if you don't have, use
head and shoulders even Selsun Blue
Directions:
1. Take
some Vitamin C tablets and crush it up. I crushed up about 20 to 25 tablets.
Judge according to the length of your hair. The tablets shouldn't be too hard to
crush. I put them in a plastic bag and used the bottom of a small pot that I had
to crush them. If you have a hammer, that works as well. After crushing them I
put it in a little container and used the handle of a wooden spoon to crush the
larger pieces so I would have a finer powder. The finer you can get it, the
better.
2. Place the powder in a plastic bowl.
3. Add the shampoo in it and mix well.
4. Mix it all up. As soon as you start mixing it, a chemical
reaction will occur, causing the mixture to lather and foam up.
5. Apply
it to your damp hair like you would with shampoo. Lather it up and make sure all
the hair is covered.
6. Pile hair on top of head and place a shower cap
or a plastic bag over it.
7. Let it sit for about an hour.
9. Rinse, rinse, rinse. And shampoo. And
condition.
10. Style as normal
11. If it did not lift all the color, or as much as you wanted to
be lifted, wait a few days or a week, and repeat the process. It may or may not lift all the color,
depending on how recently you colored it and how many times you have done so.
