Steps

Wash off the dye with shampoo

1. Determine if a deep-cleaning shampoo is working. A deep cleansing shampoo is a great way to remove a semi-temporary dye. However, if you use a permanent dye, a deep cleansing shampoo may not be strong enough to remove the dye. This method may take some of the dye away from fading, but it will take longer.
2. Buy a deep cleaning shampoo. You need to buy a deep cleansing shampoo that is not used for dyed hair. This shampoo helps to remove the color from the hair. Also, you need to buy conditioner (conditioner doesn't need to be too expensive).

   

   
   
   • Suave Daily Clarifying Shampoo is a product that you should try.
   • If your hair is dry and frizzy, buy a deep moisturizing conditioner to give it the nourishment it needs
   • Alternatively, you can buy a dandruff shampoo.
3. Consider mixing baking soda with shampoo. As a natural bleach, when added to shampoo, baking soda can help remove hair dye faster.

   

   
   
4. Wet your hair with warm water. Make sure the water is as warm as you can tolerate it. Warm water opens the hair follicles and cuticles, making it easier to remove the dye. You need to thoroughly wet your hair with water before shampooing.

   

   
   
5. Apply a deep cleansing shampoo. Pour a sufficient amount of shampoo into the palm of your hand and then apply it to your hair. Use your fingers to gently rub the head. Squeeze off the soap bubbles (that could be the color of the hair dye). Make sure the shampoo covers the hair evenly. Now, please drill down.

   

6. Clip your hair up. If your hair is short, you may not need a clip. Put a towel around your neck (use a towel you don't mind getting dirty as the shampoo and dye will run down and may stick to the towel).

   

7. Put a plastic shower cap over your head and heat your hair. Make sure the hood covers all the hair and is secured on top. Use a dryer to generate heat, but be careful not to blow the hot air in one place for too long to avoid melting the plastic. The heat will help the shampoo remove the color from the hair.

   

   • If you don't have a plastic hood, you can use a plastic bag. Wrap the bag around your head and use clips to secure the top of the bag in front of your head.
8. Cover your hair for 15-20 minutes. After 15-20 minutes, wash your hair with warm water.Apply the shampoo two more times to your hair, then rinse it off after each application. After washing, the lather will only have a little color of hair dye left.

   

9. Use conditioner to condition your hair. Apply conditioner to hair thoroughly, making sure to spread evenly over all hair. If the hair is long enough, you can clip it up. If not, let go of your hair naturally.

   

10. Use a dryer to heat your hair. When your hair is almost dry, let it sit for 25-30 minutes, then rinse the conditioner with cool water.

    

11. Wash your hair with cold water. To close the hair follicles, use cold water to wash your hair one last time. This helps the hair retain the necessary nutrients from the conditioner. You should see the color of the dye fade about 2/3. Wait for hair to recover for about a day, then repeat the procedure.

    

Wash off the dye with vitamin C

1. Use 1000 mg of vitamin C mixed with shampoo. You can buy vitamin C in small packets, bottles or powder. Pour vitamin C into a mixing bowl. If vitamin C is not already in powder form, you can use a spoon or pestle back (if you have one) to pound it into a powder.

   

2. Pour shampoo into vitamin C. You should use good shampoo to keep hair soft and healthy. Add a little more shampoo than usual in vitamin C powder and mix well. Make sure the dough is free of lumps and that the two ingredients are evenly matched.

   

   • You can add a little dish detergent to the shampoo and vitamin C mixture to increase the dye-removal effect of this method.
3. Wet your hair with warm water and apply the mixture. Warm water helps open the hair follicles to make it easier to remove the color. Apply the shampoo mixture to your hair. Be sure to apply it evenly to let the shampoo penetrate your hair and cover every strand of hair, from root to tip.

   

4. Clip your hair and put a shower cap over your head. This hair color removal method can be a bit messy, so you'll need to wear a shower cap while you wait for the mixture to work. Also, wrap an old towel around your shoulder, as the dye may drip. A hood will probably catch most of the dripping dye, but it's better to wrap a towel around your shoulders for safety.

   

   • If you don't have a hood, you can either put a plastic bag on and clip it in the front or wrap it around your hair with food wrap.
5. Let the hair soak in the shampoo for about 45 minutes. During this time, the mixture of shampoo and vitamin C will help remove the dye color. Wash your hair after 45 minutes.

   

6. Apply conditioner to your hair. This is essential to prevent hair from drying out or getting frizzy. This method is effective on both semi-temporary and permanent dyes, but varies from person to person. You can repeat the steps above again if the color of the dye is still visible.

   

Use household products

1. Fill the tub with water and add bath salts. Bath salts, available at major cosmetic stores or supermarkets, are known to lighten a semi-temporary (blue or green) hair dye. Fill the tub with hot water and add a bag of bath salts. Soak your hair in the tub for as long as possible. Once soaked, the color of the hair dye will fade. Next, you need to wash your hair and moisturize it. Repeat the procedure for 1 or 2 days if needed.

   

   • You can fill a tub with water and add bath salts to soak your hair if you don't want to soak in the tub.
2. Use dish soap. Note that dish soap will dry out your hair, so you will need to use conditioner after washing with dish soap. Add 4-5 drops of dish soap to a little shampoo (about the size of a coin). Wet your hair with hot water and apply the shampoo-dish soap mixture to your hair. Leave for 10 minutes and then wash your hair thoroughly.

   

   • Use conditioner to condition your hair after washing with dish soap.
3. Wash your hair with laundry detergent. Make sure the laundry detergent doesn't contain bleach or bleach to avoid damaging your hair. Wet your hair with warm water and apply a teaspoon of laundry detergent to your hair. Use an extra spoon if your hair is relatively long. Wash your hair and use conditioner to keep hair healthy.

   

Fading dye thanks to sunlight

1. Spend more time outdoors. Exposure to natural sunlight after a few days can help lighten hair color. You can go for a daily walk at noon, when the sun is at its strongest. Note that you should apply sunscreen to your skin and do not stay in the sun for too long to avoid scalp burns.
2. Use a hair spray. Spray your hair with a "hold-in" spray and stay out in the sun for as long as possible. Then, brush off the hair spray gel and wash it with an anti-dandruff shampoo. Finally, use conditioner to restore softness to the hair.

   

3. Sit in the sun after swimming in a pool with chlorinated water. Although exposure to chlorine does not immediately remove color, swimming in chlorinated pool water and exposing your hair to sunlight will help lighten the color. Be sure to wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner after swimming in chlorinated water. Do not expose too much sun to burn to avoid risk of skin cancer.

   

Advice

• If you cannot correct your hair color yourself, you should see a hair care professional for a professional hair color correction.
• Always wear old clothes and put a scarf over your shoulders when dyeing your hair.

Warning

• Always use caution when using household products such as dishwashing liquid or laundry detergent. Avoid getting these products in your eyes, ears, mouth or nose.
• Don't overdo your store-bought brown or black dye over your blue or green hair color. Usually, this will make the hair darker and slightly blue in color.
