Q&A for How to Remove Black Hair Dye

Yes, but it takes bleach or a specially designed color remover. If your hair is very dark it may take a few separate treatments to remove all the color.

You can try a clarifying shampoo to remove some of the dye. You can also try mixing baking soda and shampoo.

Before you get the skin wet, massage in some soap. You can also try alcohol or even a mixture of soap and alcohol.

Yes, but only if the dye is a permanent color that contains no direct dyes. If the color has staining ingredients like indigo, the bleach won't work.

Yes, but it may be a complicated process. Removing the color isn't a matter of throwing another color on top of the black. Some people use bleach and shampoo. However, a professional can do it by safely breaking the chemical color bonds in your hair, all without you having to risk your hair falling out. Afterwards, getting your hair to the color you actually want may involve doing some highlights, lowlights, and even a glaze.

Yes. That shampoo contains sulfates, which can help remove the dye.

The color is probably really soaked in there since you have been dyeing it for so long. I recommend getting it stripped at a salon or bleaching it before you apply brown again, but it's best to consult a professional so you don't damage your hair.

It depends on how much you need. But for example, if you used 1/4 cup of one water, you'd need a full cup of honey. Just make sure you use four times the amount of honey to water.

That is the best you are going to get without badly damaging it. Give it a couple of days with heavy conditioning, then if you want, you can bleach it to make it lighter.

Without using any bleach, you would have to simply grow it out, as black hair dye is very hard to remove.

Hair stripper. Just buy a pack of hair stripper to take the color out.

Weekly processing can damage your hair. Once a month is really the most you should be dying your hair.

It depends on the color of hair dye that you used and what hair dye you are going to use to bleach or lighten your hair.

It is possible, but it may take a few times before you get the results you want.

If it is permanent, it will take a long time and many treatments to get it redone so maybe either use temporary next time or temporary silver.

If it is semi permanent you should start to see it wash out. Otherwise, the only thing to do is bleach your hair, which shouldn't cause much damage, provided you use the correct chemicals and condition well. Have it professionally done if you're concerned.

Dye it a lighter color like dirty blond or light brown, or just wait for it to grow out.

Yes, but keep in mind that black becomes red/orange when bleaching. So you'd have to use a high cream developer to get your hair to a light color before dyeing it again your natural color. This is probably best done at a salon.

Use a quarter cup of water. You don't want the honey to get too watered down, so it's easy to spread through your hair.

Try washing out the dye with a mix of baking soda and dandruff shampoo (mix the dame amount of both). Use this like a normal hairmask and leave it in for 7 minutes. Use a hydration conditioner afterwards. If the dye isn’t completely out, wait for two days and try again. Repeat until no dye runs out while washing of the hairmask.
