- Shampoo that *removes* color?
- Posted by jules
I know we've discussed shampoos that strip hair of color unintentionally,
but I was wondering if there are any that strip color on purpose. I'm going
back to my natural blonde from a red and I'd like to help the process along
a bit.
Any recs for actually shampoos that do this? Or any opinions on regular
shampoos that seem most guilty of color stripping???

Do they still make Prell? I always heard this would do it.

Liquid dish washing soap does it, but is hard on your hair as well.

Yep, they still make it. It's the only shampoo my dad has ever and will
ever use.

Paula B. always claimed any shampoos with TEA Lauryl Sulfate stripped
color. Dunno if any still have that as an ingredient but it's the one
thing I've heard that *strips* rather than protects color.
I also recall wayyyy back when there was a thread on Aveda Madder Root
for red hair actually stripping the color from it. I remember
freaking about this b/c it was my shampoo at the time, one I was using
to *retain* my red color. Sure enough, when I quit using it, my color
started lasting longer.

it will work--just condition heavily afterwards.
However, I read somewhere once that the secret to stripping color is not only a
harsh shampoo, but allowing your hair to dry. So washing it 5 x with liquid
dish washing soap is not as effective as washing it 5 times and making sure it
dries completely after each wash.

Stop!!
Shampoos and other hair care products that "strip" color from the hair are
in reality only fading the color.
Return with me now to a few weeks ago, when we discussed what permanent
color preparations do to the hair:
1. 20 volume peroxide (30 volume in very light colors) *lifts* the natural
color a couple of shades.
2. Pigment from the tint is deposited into the hair through the opened
cuticle, and combines with the lifted natural color to create (one hopes)
the color and shade you desire.
Your natural color can't be restored by fading or otherwise removing
permanent color. If you intentionally fade the tint from your hair, what you
end up with is faded permanent color combined with lighter than usual
natural color. If you strive to fade it all out, the color you'll end up
with is likely to be orange.
To return to blonde, you may want to consider highlighting to achieve a
gradual return to normalcy. High lift blonde or bleach foils toned to blonde
would remove much of the red, neutralize brassiness and deposit yellow, and
this highlighting would be less jarring and look more normal during the grow
out. As your own color grows out further, some more strategically placed
foils would help to blend in the demarcation. I don't recommend simply
tinting your whole head with blonde because the chance of getting off-tones
is great, and these are easier to control and blend when random areas such
as those created with foils are used.

"Richard Hunter" made a helpful recommendation:
Does it do what it promises? Is the hair really bearable? Is the color it
leaves behind easily correctable? These are the reasons I avoid using
removers.
- Posted by Robert Craig
yup, this is the same type of remover as Colorfix.......they reduce the
dyes.....I am not sure you can buy Rusk without being a salon or
cosmetologist but you can buy Colorfix........if you want to read about it,
here is a link

Please do post about your results!! I'm sure lots of DIY colorhounds
would love to know how it performs; I know I would! Particularly
interested in how effective it is at removing color (obviously), and
what kind of condition it leaves the hair in afterwards.

discontinuing the color remover for some reason.....not sure if this is true
but you might email them and ask
