Now, if you really need to get rid of the paint, then at least for days without stopping my head - nothing helps. What to do? Calm down and read the advice of experienced.
There are two main ways of washing paint with hair:
- Professional hair cosmetics.
- Folk remedies.
Consider them and decide what to choose.
Special tool for special assistance
In stores that sell professional cosmetics for hair, you can offer a special tool to neutralize the dye. A chemical remover is a rather caustic substance, but at the same time it is quite effective. Each application allows you to lighten the hair by 2-3 tones, which is a very good result.
After such an impact, the curls may have to be repainted and restored using hair masks. Also remember that you can not use a chemical remover for damage to the scalp, even if we are talking about simple scratches.
As you can see, even the stars do not pay attention to regrown roots and uneven color.
Kefir on the head: not tasty, but useful
Oddly enough, but the most common kefir, it is quite able to help you. The fact is that in its composition there are lactic acids and biologically active components. What does this give us? Removing paint plus a nourishing firming mask that will add shine and saturate the hair. Kefir can lighten hair and give it shine. Read also: How to lighten hair at home
For the preparation we need:
· 1 liter of kefir (it is better to choose the one with more fat),
· 1 tbsp. l vegetable oil at your discretion,
All ingredients are thoroughly mixed and applied to the hair along the entire length. Top - shower cap. You need to withstand about an hour and wash it off. From the brunette you will not become blonde, but you will be able to lighten your hair.
Kefir with vodka
This recipe promises to help lighten the hair with 1.5 or 2 tones. What we need:
We mix all components and heat in a water bath to 40 degrees. Just as in the previous recipe, put on your hair, put on a shower cap and wrap a head with a towel. After a couple of hours, wash off with warm water.
Oil
Homemade, oil based recipes are considered to be gentle and nutritious. Preparing a mixture of a cup of vegetable oil and 30 grams of animal fat.
We combine two components and heat the mixture well to a comfortable temperature. The next step is applied to the hair. Since it is a mixture of specific consistency, and it should be applied evenly, it is convenient to use a brush used to dye hair. It is enough to hold on the hair for half an hour.
But it will not be easy to wash off this oil from the head. You will have to wash your hair with shampoo several times.
Soda will assist
What every hostess knows about the use of soda is also useful in our case. This is the tool that is able to wash-clean everything.
To prepare the wash take soda (10 tbsp. L., If you have short hair) and 1 tbsp. warm water. Stir well. It seems to you that if you take the water hotter, the result will be better. And no! At high temperatures, the powder may begin to be extinguished and the result of this remover will no longer be. Add 1 tsp. salt and stir again.
Using a cosmetic sponge, carefully apply the solution and spread it over the strands. Most efforts manifest themselves in those areas where the paint took the hardest. After 2/3 hours wash your hair. Even if you have a desire to hold the composition longer on the head, do not do it. Soda can add your curls excessive rigidity that we absolutely do not need.
Whatever tool you prefer, the result may be far from ideal. Do not worry, but repeat the process. If the paint turned out to be more stubborn than you, and never gives up, ask for help from a hairdressing salon professional.
Attention! All recipes listed in the article are presented for review. Consult with a professional before trying them on yourself!
Folk ways
The most effective and careful way to restore the original tone of the curls or its shade is oil. To prepare the composition, you can take any oil - sunflower, olive, castor or burdock. As ingredients, you will also need butter, margarine and lard. Recipes for making masks are easy enough to make at home.
It is necessary to take 1 cup of any oil and enter into it from 20 to 30 grams of solid fat. It will take a little to heat the composition to completely dissolve the solid fat.
Important - the temperature of the product should be comfortable for application to the strands. The mixture should be evenly distributed over the entire length of the curls and create a "bath effect" - wrap the head first with polyethylene and wrap with a bath towel on top.
Time of action - from 2 to 3 hours. Remove the mixture with shampoo for oily hair. It is important - to completely remove the composition with strands, it will take a few soaping. 
There are a few simple recipes for making paint removers:
- It is necessary to mix sunflower, olive and castor oil. All ingredients must be taken in equal proportions.
- It should be from 3 to 4 tbsp. spoon of castor oil mixed with 3 egg yolks.
- You can use only one oil - olive.
The use of this product has several advantages, since such compositions not only help to remove paint, but also actively restore strands. The result after application - the hair gets a glossy shine, curls are soft and obedient in styling.
Another effective tool is kefir. The principle of operation of this product is similar to the action of special acid-based washing compositions. Acid, which is contained in dairy products, neutralizes chemicals in the composition of coloring products.
You will need 1 liter of kefir, you can replace it with yogurt of high fat content. Kefir should be divided into curls. Action time - from an hour to one and a half. The mixture is removed using regular shampoo. If desired, after a while, you can repeat the procedure. The final result - clarification from 12 to one tone.
To increase the efficiency, you can add 12 cups of vegetable oil. It can be replaced - 2 tbsp. spoons of soda or 50 grams of vodka.
It is a time-tested tool.
To remove the paint from the curls, it is necessary to dilute 1 cup of soda with warm water until the consistency of gruel. Important - the water should not be boiling water. The resulting composition should be evenly distributed over all strands, using a brush or a comb with frequent teeth.
After it is necessary to create a “bath effect”. The time of action is approximately 40 minutes, however the time should not exceed 1 hour. Remove the mixture with plain water, and at the final stage use shampoo.
You can also prepare a cool solution based on soda - 5 tbsp. spoon to dissolve in the 1st liter of liquid. You will need to dip the strands in the resulting composition. Action time is about 40 minutes.
One should take into account the aspect that soda has a drying effect not only on the skin of the head, but also on the curls themselves. You should not use this recipe if the strands are overdried, and the scalp is prone to dandruff.
An affordable and effective option - economic or tar soap.
To remove the coloring composition from the head of hair, it will be necessary to soap the curls well and leave for about half an hour. After a while, you need to thoroughly rinse the hair.
An important point - the soap is characterized by a strong drying effect, so at the final stage it is best to use a special hair balm.
Girls with dry strands should choose another option to remove the paint in order to avoid a negative impact not only on the hair, but also on the scalp.
It will help remove the paint from the dried and loose strands. Honey on wet curls works by analogy with hydrogen peroxide, but it works quite carefully and gives a weak golden shade to the hair.
It is recommended to wash your hair and rinse curls with a weak soda solution before applying honey. Proportions - from 1 to 2 teaspoons per 1 liter of liquid. The tool should be evenly applied to the strands. Action time - from 8 to 10 hours. The most optimal time is to make a mask for the night. The important point - do not wrap your head tightly.
Advantage - this recipe will help to return the old color to the hair and will have a beneficial effect on the condition of the strands.
The well-known fact that a lemon is able to brighten, so it will also contribute to the restoration of the original color of hair.
It will be necessary to rinse them each time after the washing procedure with water and lemon. Proportions - lemon juice of the 1st citrus to 1 liter of liquid.
The result - the color "come down" slightly - from 12 to one tone.
An important point - with the regular use of this recipe, it is possible to achieve a visible result.
The composition of this product contains egg yolks, vegetable oil and acid, which in the complex have a beneficial effect on the hair. The important point is that it should be taken out of the refrigerator in advance so that it becomes room temperature.
It should be abundantly put mayonnaise on the curls and create a “bath effect”. Action time - no more than 3 hours. Remove with shampoo for greasy hair.
The positive aspect is that the curls will not only become brighter, but also significantly change, will be softer to the touch and obedient, will acquire a natural shine.
Bleaching
If the existing dark color of the curls is the desire to lighten them, then you can do this with the help of bleaching compositions for washing. The final result is a clarification of about 4 tones. It is not uncommon that after this procedure the strands acquire a slightly red tint. If you wish, you can repeat the procedure after 2 weeks. It is important - it is necessary to wait until the end of the two-week period. The best option is to paint over the reddish tone with a different shade.
The negative aspect is that after using such compositions, the hair “suffers”, so its complex treatment with nutritional means will be required.
The degree of complexity of "information" from hair of unnecessary color will depend on the degree of saturation of tone. To remove the blackness may require several procedures.
Now on the market there are many compositions for washing persistent coloring tools from the hair structure. These are acid removers without ammonia and bleaching ingredients. Despite the assurances of manufacturers about the safety of such products, it will still be necessary to pay attention to the restoration of strands.
Due to the absence of ammonia, the compositions do not discolor the hair itself, but only remove artificial coloring pigments from it.
The positive point is that the washes practically do not affect the roots, which are branches and have a natural tone. The composition affects exclusively the oxidized areas of curls that have been painted with resistant paint.
The final result - the hair becomes soft, thanks to the caring ingredients of the composition.
After one procedure, the strands will brighten from 2 to 3 tones. "Unnecessary" color can be washed off in one or two procedures.
I was saved by a mask based on mayonnaise, when it was necessary to “remove” a couple of tones. I tried the soap first, the result is not bad, but it dries not only the hair, but also the scalp.
I tried the soda to wash the paint, but the result did not satisfy. Kefir helped lighten the hair just 1 tone.
Had an unsuccessful experience in dyeing hair, when in the end I received not “chocolate”, but “eggplant”. With the help of mayonnaise, it was possible to wash off 1 tone and at the same time a lot of “redness” came down. The result is satisfied, because the hair has gained shine and silkiness.
It does not matter which option to remove the paint will be selected. It is important that a one-time procedure is not enough to restore the original color. At home, this can take from a few days to weeks.
Eliminating unwanted hair color at the hair salon
The elimination of unwanted hair color at a barbershop is called decoupling professionals. For this procedure, a special solution is applied to the hair, then it is washed off with water. After a certain period of time, you can correct the color of unsuccessfully colored hair for 3-5 tones. Naturally, decapitation is carried out with the use of aggressive chemicals - they penetrate deep into the hair structure, violate their integrity and adversely affect health. Therefore, professionals after decapitating must necessarily conduct sessions for their clients to restore and strengthen curls.
In the "arsenal" of master hairdressers there are several types of packing:
- surface (acidic): carried out using solutions that do not contain ammonia and hydrogen peroxide, it is possible to change the color by 2-3 tones,
- deep (decolorizing): the hair is brightened by 4-5 tones, it is used only in exceptional cases - for example, if you need to get rid of black dye on the hair quickly and guaranteed,
- homemade (natural): an absolutely safe rinsing, which has a weak effect, changes color only by 1 tone, but cares for hair well.
Masters in hairdressing salons usually offer their clients to first take advantage of superficial decaps, which is more benign. If the desired result is not observed, then it is possible to proceed to a deep dumping. If there is no confidence in aggressive, chemical means of dumping, then ordinary products can be used to eliminate unsuccessful staining results.
How to wash off the paint at home
It will not be easy to wash the dye from hair at home, but regular procedures will be absolutely safe for the health of hair.
Algorithm of actions:
- Find a recipe. It must be selected according to the type and color of the curls. There are tools that relieve hair from black dye well, but there are also those that are effective only for fair-haired women.
- Cooking tool. This should be done in strict accordance with the instructions, as even a small deviation can provoke an unexpected hair reaction. If the recipe contains water, then plumbing is absolutely not suitable, you will have to use either mineral without gas or filtered. If the mask contains vegetable oil, then the best choice would be burdock, olive or castor oil.
- We carry out the procedure. It is necessary to apply means on a dry and dirty head. Strongly recommended when applying a mask to touch the scalp and even more so to rub it into the hair roots. From above, we cover the head with plastic and wrap up with a towel, the time of the procedure is 60 minutes.
- Final steps. The product applied to the hair is washed off with warm water using shampoo, the procedure lasts until clear water flows from the head. Then you need to dry the hair in a natural way (without a hairdryer!).
Note:the desired effect of the home wash will not be obtained quickly, so be sure to need repeated procedures.It is recommended to carry out the considered “event” on washing the dye from the hair 1-2 times a week. The duration of such procedures is not limited. After the final wash of the paint, it is impossible to perform the next hair coloring for 3-4 days.
Yes, the process of decamping requires some knowledge and a lot of patience, but if you have confidence in your own abilities, then it remains only to choose the appropriate recipe.
Home-made kefir
Immediately make a reservation that ready-to-buy kefir is not suitable for decamping, so you will need to cook it yourself. It can be safely replaced with yogurt - the milk is put in a warm place and fermented (becomes sour).
Kefir is applied to the hair without any additives, perfectly eliminates the light and red dye on the hair.
Laundry soap
It is enough to wash the hair with a simple soap. Just do not need to soap your hair for an hour, it will be enough to find the formed foam for 5-7 minutes. Then the hair is thoroughly rinsed with warm water.
You should not use the method in question for women who have dry hair - the laundry soap is very dry and can lead to a powerful thinning of the hair rods.
Note:after washing the paint with laundry soap, you must use a special conditioner or conditioner balsam.
Baking soda
It is necessary to take 5 tablespoons of ordinary baking soda, diluted in a liter of warm water until completely dissolved. The finished product is applied to the hair, aged for 20 minutes.
It is strictly prohibited decantation procedures using baking soda to women whose scalp is damaged (wounds, scratches). The product in question has a somewhat aggressive effect on the curls, so owners of dry hair should already have a prepared wash tested on the skin behind the auricle, or wet one strand and see the result. With even more drying (the skin will immediately begin to peel off, and the strand will hang lifeless after drying), the baking soda solution cannot be used as a paint remover.
Vegetable oil
For washing the dye from the hair, burdock, castor or olive vegetable oils will be the best choice. But you should not mix them together, it is better to use some one. Immediately before use, selected vegetable oil should be heated in a water bath.
Procedures with the application of the listed types of oils on the hair not only make it possible to get rid of the undesirable shade of curls, but also to make them thick, shiny and voluminous.
You can use only the classic type of this product, without the addition of lemon juice, quail eggs and olive oil. It's simple: mayonnaise is applied to the entire length of the hair, then the head is covered with polyethylene and a towel, an hour later the rins are rinsed with warm water using shampoo.
This remover is suitable for absolutely all hair types. If a woman is the owner of dry strands, they will become more wet, and in case of a breakdown of the sebaceous glands on the scalp, the hair will be relieved of its oily shine.
Wash off unwanted paint from hair can be expensive and fast, or cheap and slow. What to choose is a purely individual matter, but it must be remembered that chemical means for decoupling always have a negative impact on the health of the hair, while home remedies from ordinary products also care for curls.

Professional or folk
The special washer will quickly remove the unfortunate color from the head of hair, but it contains strong chemicals that can cause great damage to hair: along with the pigment, the protective sheath is washed away, maintaining the flexibility of the hair. The curl becomes fragile, loses its natural luster, begins to split. It will take a lot of time, effort and a variety of restorative composition to bring them back to life.
Folk recipes are more benign, have a soft effect on the structure of the hair and care. Immediately after the use of natural products, you can re-paint your hair with paint. One procedure can not do, especially with dark shades. The black color cannot be washed off with home remedies; for brighter shades, this method is excellent, it will make the tone muted and less saturated. Therefore, professional formulations should be resorted to if the home recipe did not produce a result.
Kefir remover
Fermented milk product - the best tool for removing pigment and simultaneous recovery of curls. Trace elements will restore every hair, strengthen the roots.
Kefir is used either in pure form or with the addition of various ingredients. The mask from kefir will help to lighten a hair on one and a half tones. Dye washing with kefir hair is carried out in two ways:
- To a liter of drink add a tablespoon of salt and any vegetable oil. The consistency is applied only on dry strands, closed with polyethylene and lasts for about an hour.
- Mix with two glasses of kefir two tablespoons of soda and three vodka. The mixture should be shaken up and heated to 40 degrees. Lather kefir on hair, keep for a couple of hours and wash with shampoo.
For masks used kefir highest fat content. Repeat preferably no more than once every two weeks.
Masks for washing out oils
For flushing paint popular recipe offers the use of any fatty product, from vegetable oil of any kind to lard. A glass of sunflower, burdock or other oil is mixed with a piece of solid fat weighing 20-30 grams. For better mixing the mixture is slightly warmed up. Masochka evenly applied across the scalp, covered with foil. You need to keep it for at least two hours, it is not forbidden even to leave for the night, the result will only be better. The disadvantage of this method is flushing the greasy mask. Shampoo for oily hair will have to be applied to the head more than once.

Remove the pigment and make the curls more obedient and shiny mask will help equal parts of castor, olive and sunflower oil. Effective composition of several spoons of castor oil and three egg yolks.
other methods
