Lighten Your Hair Dye With Vitamin C

Have you dyed your hair too dark or want to remove hair dye completely? Vitamin C can help to lighten hair dye without damaging your hair.

Steps

  1. Place a few vitamin C tablets in a zip lock bag. You will need enough tablets to fill one teaspoon when crushed.
  2. Crush the tablets to a fine powder with a rolling pin.
  3. Mix the powder with enough shampoo to cover the part of your hair you want to remove the dye from.
  4. Massage the mixture into your hair, ensuring it is evenly coated.
  5. Cover your hair with a shower cap. If you are only removing the colour from a few strands, cover them with foil.
  6. Leave the mixture on your hair for about an hour.
  7. Wash out the mixture for at least 5 mins.
  8. Use a moisturising conditioner. The vitamin C will dry out your hair, so it is important to restore moisture to it afterwards. Be sure to leave the conditioner on your hair for the length of time stated on the bottle.
