How to remove hair dye and hair bleach from your hair

Aaron...

I assumed you do not mean "How do you rinse the chemicals out of your
hair at the conclusion of dyeing or bleaching your hair?" If not a
correct assumption, when at home I take a shower and let it go down the
drain; at the salon there is a technician to rinse it out. ; )

Firstly, hair *bleach* removes color from your hair; once it has been
bleached you either let it grow out (showing regrowth, aka roots), or
cover the lightened hair with hair dye or toner.

For hair *dye* the answer depends on several factors:

Great answers!

There you go, perfect answers!! Sure hope this helps.

Is it designed to wash out (semi-permanent)? Then wash hair as usual
till it has dispersed. It may take longer than the stated '24 shampoos'
and some traces may still remain. Harsher shampoos or dishwash soap can
accelerate the process - then *condition* a lot!

Is it permanent? Reds may fade, blondes grow dingy, and black will last
until you cut it off. Literally, it varies from person to person how
well any dyeing will last, or not last. There are color removers
available (such as Rusk ID Elimin8 - available via professionals). To
make it fade faster (not remove!!) harsher shampoo, or dishwashing soap,
can be used. There will still be traces of color though, that is why it
is called *permanent* color.

Bleach cannot be removed from the hair. Bleach in itself removes color
from the hair shaft, strips it clean. Hair dye I have no idea.
Hopefully David will be along soon to help you with your hair color
removal. But the more you process your hair, the weaker it becomes.
Did you make a gigantic boo-boo?? Have you talked to your stylist?
