So now and then boredom takes pleasure in trapping me in a little corner and tickling me with a feather till I burst out laughing and cannot stop. This time was no different and while being tickled I was also inspired by a Visual Kei band (Japanese Rock Music Genre) and their alternating color. Long story short I decided to dye my hair from blonde to black.And it turns out black hair makes me look older even though black is my original hair color (I'm asian) :(
Upon scouring the internet for a fix to my mistake I stumbled upon this product called "MYHD Color Remover" what this does is it destroys the links of Hair Dye on your natural hair. These links are the links that keep the color attached to your hair. This was perfectly what I was looking for so I decided to give it a go.
My hair had 2 layers of Garnier 100% Color (Jet Black) on it. First application was 1 week before the second. The second was 4 days before the use of MYHD.
Things you need:
MYHD Colour Remover (Obviously)
Measuring cup
Bowl to mix
Glad Wrap (Plastic Wrap) for the head
Pair of disposable gloves (Optional)
I mixed 40mls of each bottle for my hair which is rougly just below the neck as seen in the "Dried Hair" picture.
So anyway let's start with the pictures!

After 10 minutes
After 20 minutes (recommended time)
After Picture (Back to dark blonde)
My hair is wet as you have to wash out the product with shampoo! This is also the stage where all the color gets washed out. ^^
Dried Hair
I only used 1 application for this you can use up to 2 times! The parts close to the root are still black as my roots (black - original) was growing and I was too lazy to touch it up with blonde again which was also a big draw for why I dyed my hair black.
As you can see from the pictures this product is pretty awesome and I highly recommend it if you've just made a disaster by choosing a color that doesn't fit well with you. The product does say in bold letters "DO NOT USE ON HAIR PREVIOUSLY COLOURED WITH HENNA OR METALLIC SALTS AND DYES." I have no idea what either of these are but if you've bought your hair color from the supermarket like Foodtown(NZ) then it should come out :D
