Hair dye stripping
Hair dye st ripping, commonly known as color correction, is a process used to rid the hair of unwanted color. Certain hair colors such as black, red, blue, purple and dark browns often can cause problems for a person seeking to change his or her hair color back to the original color.
Procedure
Hair stripping is similar to bleaching the hair, except that more intense products are used. The bleaching product raises sulfite levels and makes the hair more porous. This allows all of the color in the hair to be removed. After this process, the hair usually becomes a very ashey blonde color or often auburn. Other dyes may then be added to the hair.
Disadvantages
Some people believe that the process is excessively dangerous, because the substance eats away at the cortex and the cuticle of the hair, which then absorbs the color from the medulla (or hair center). This is very dangerous and the hair may undergo some very serious problems such as dryness, breaking, porosity and other serious problems. After hair stripping, the hair must be conditioned excessively. There are many products available for colour stripping but the safest way is to visit a hairdresser.
