L'Oréal Technique Quick Blue High Performance Hair Lightener - Hair Bleaching Powder - No Drip Formula, Extra Strength Lightening Action Lifts Up To 7 Levels, Single Application

I use this with warm water to get my direct dyes/fashion colors out and go back to platinum blonde or switch to another color. Works like a charm, the stained color washes right out. My hair is frizzy and dry after, but the product is like entirely ammonia so it makes sense; ammonia's job is to open the hair cuticle. Thus, dry, frizzy hair, but the pigment comes out. It leaves it prone to damage, so being gentle after is a must. But a few washes later with ph-balancing shampoo and conditioner to close the cuticle (I use products with aloe) and my hair is back to normal and soft and blonde and my dark brown natural regrowth is intact! Yay!Disclaimer: I've never used this with developer. If you use it with developer it will work like bleach and lighten your natural hair and possibly cause damage. Assess the instructions and the health and amount/type of dye stuck in your hair before choosing developer. Better safe than sorry. If your hair is badly compromised, don't use this with developer.

Love this bleach! L'Oréal Quick Blue lifts my hair up to 7 levels with ease, and the no-drip formula makes application super clean and easy. It’s powerful, fast-acting, and leaves my hair ready for any color I want to apply. Highly recommend for salon-quality results at home!

works good

I was pleased and glad I purchased two because I have a lot of hair.

For starters I’ve done a lot with my hair and recently I went black by using a permanent color from Sally’s and then a black box dye ontop of that and under all of it was a light brown and some blond and then dark pink ontop of that to fill it in to then put a dark brown so needless to say it’s been a lot so I’m Honeslty pleased with how well this lifted I added some shampoo as well to make a kinda like a bleach bath since yes this dose have some bleach in it and then I added a 20 developer by the same brand and when I say I was so pleased with the results I meant it I definitely recommend this if you were trying to remove black box dye now my root area is much darker so I’m assuming the dark dye took the most there but overall my ends are a nice light brown and ready to be dyed again !! ( I should add that yes it dose make ur hair feel a bit dry I mean obvi it’s bleach so just make sure to use a nice hair mask and some leave ins after!! And you’ll be good)Hope this helps anyone with the same problem I had !!

Works good to remove black in your hair

Don’t use this unless you want to completely bleach your hair. I just don’t understand why some products’ selling points are centered around removing unwanted color. And yes, I read the fine print, the reviews, the ratings and shop around before using a product like this. This one said it removes the color in your color treated hair, but doesn’t return it to your natural color. The first one I used was Color oops. That was a bust so I shopped around and did my research and finally settled on this one. BIG MISTAKE. This crap not only bleached my hair but into a bright yellow blonde that no one would like. Of course I tried toning it but ultimately the only way to even get it to a point to where I would actually leave the house was to color over it, which I did not want to do right away. Basically, if you’re looking for a quick, cheap way to bleach your hair, this is for you. Anything else, STAY AWAY! It also said you might need two packs if you had long or thick hair. So naturally, I only ordered one bc I have short, thin hair. I barely had enough.

My natural color is light brown. I have been dying it a chestnut brown for a few years (reddish highlights, but a single color not "salon highlights" , just a rich, reddish-tone brown the shows reddish in the sunlight especially. I've used Salermvision for years). I noticed more white hair coming and figured it's time to start going a bit lighter as over time my hair was definitely showing the dark shades towards the ends that results from coloring over time with few trims or on the ends of hair that are more porous and accept the dye. It was getting darker at the ends and my root coloring was evident to me.My plan was to use this to remove all that darker brown that accumulated over the years, starting fresh with no color. (White? my natural dark brown?) Well, folks, I had a gorgeous orange the color of freshly-picked carrots under a disco ball when I used this. A step away from neon punk rock orange. No problem, it was not what I expected, but I figured my new "light brown" would take when I dyed it a couple days later. Not. I was still a redhead, albeit toned down a bit.I received nothing but compliments on my new color, but it was clearly red. Not burgundy, auburn, but a dark-ish carrot-top. I love it, but it wasn't the expected outcome. That first coloring left me with amazing depth and tones all over the place, really glistening in the light. I got so many compliments, and comments, that my haircolor changed. I had planned on a subtle change to a lighter color, and instead had a full-on new color. Seriously, everyone loved it, said it suited my coloring/skin tone, etc., but it was drastic.A couple weeks later I dyed it a light brown again, and wouldn't you know, I'm closer to the chestnut brown I started with, even though the color this time was a dark ashe blond/light brown color with no reds. It's not quite as dark, but pretty close. This second dying about 3 weeks later has toned down the color change from "hey, did you dye your hair" to it is not noticeable except for the style now. I like subtle and stand out for my overall aesthetic, not a shock from drastic change.My hair is not in the same condition as it was before, I will say that while my results worked out great for the look/color, (lucky unplanned mistake), the condition of my hair was definitely dry/damaged at the ends. So I cut layers everywhere, keeping the length in the back so it's not quite so noticeable I did. It's a couple inches past shoulder length. I had long layers before, but now have overall layering so it "just" doesn't reach a ponytail in the back w/o gel or hairspray to hold it in place. It will grow, I cut about 2" off overall, and I've learned my lesson (I'm not a pro or a chemist, I will stick to coloring). I wrote this long review so you would be helped and not surprised. This color remover will remove build-up but not take your hair down to a neutral palet/blank slate to work with, you have to know how to manage color for the resultant base. Good luck!
