Hair Color Remover

Comments about Color Oops Hair Color Remover:

Just dyed my hair (by accident)a brownish/gray when using ash brown on top of blonde (highlighted blonde). Oops took out the horrible color and left me with a different, but nice blonde and kept my natural gray covered. I used a super heavy conditioner afterwards & left it on for 20 min. My hair is soft and doesn't look overworked! Wish this stuff was around 40 years ago!

This is my second time using Color Oops (since 3 years ago or so) and I recommend this product to EVERYONE! Its a lifesaver :)

My hair is naturally strawberry blonde, but its been through every color on the planet. Most recently, my hair suffered a bad dye job (i knew better, but went against my better judgement and allowed a friend to pick my boxed dye colour :/)

My hair WAS a heinous shade of bright red at the roots and dull mousey brown throughout the rest... It looked so bad even my husband commented on how bad it looked and he neevr notices anything...

So I used Colour Oops as directed and rinsed for 20 minutes followed by a deep condition. I blow dryed my hair and its a lovely EVEN strawberry blonde. Its kind of flat, but nothing a little demi permanent dye wont fix :) Just gotta add that shimmer... Other than that its a liveable tone and certainly beats my previous shade.

NOTE: I have read of a lot of people complaining that it didn't work and that their hair is naturally black and this product turned them orange... This product SPECIFICALLY states that it WILL NOT reverse any lightening... This product only works for people whose hair is TOO DARK or off tone from dyeing. It will not fix a bad bleach job or correct lifted hair- other than even out the tone. Read the box people.

It works! I've used it twice now (sparingly of course) and had family members use it and love it. It sure beats a $400 color correction at the salon!

A++

This product will definitely get the dark color out of your hair. My hair turned black after dying it medium brown. Used Color Oops and it took all the black out. However, my hair turned really light after this. Pretty much an orange color. I had to re-dye it another color after in order for it to look normal.
It also does smell really bad but I put this good smelling conditioner in my hair that helped take out the bad smell.

This product is great!! I only left it on or 15 minutes not the 20 the said. You have to really watch it. It works fast.

I am naturally blonde, no not bleach blonde, those are rare. I have medium blonde hair and have been dying it black for... probably the last six years now. I am going to Punta Cana in 30 days and decided I wanted to go back to blonde. At first I said I would go back AFTER Punta Cana, but then I got too excited.

Anyways, I had decided to use color oops, try it out, do the blonde, and if it looked extremely horrendous after my attempts I would do dark brown just before I left, which would probably look fine.

I was extremely nervous and followed the directions perfectly. I bought two color oops boxes and two boxes of hair dye. Color oops 14 ea and hair dye 8 ea. Ended up spending 50 bucks.

Did the first oops box and hair was really dark on the bottom and reddish orange on top. Dried hair, did it again. Lighter this time on the top and you could only tell the bottom was a bit lighter when I took a picture of it.
I conditioned for 20 minutes like it said and my hair was nice and soft again.

I was pretty excited, the black was gone, yeah I looked like an ugly pumpkin, but I should be able to dye over the red and be good right? WRONG

So I put a light blonde on and left it only five minutes, like the oops says too. Hair went extremely dark again. Top is a lighter brown (about 2.5 inches of top) and the rest is basically black.

SOOOOOOOO not worth it. When they say get a lighter shade than you want, they mean get white. I am probably going to try bleaching it and dying it blonde. don't waste your time.

I had bleach blonde hair when I decided to dye it burgundy. I started with demi permanents but my hait would not take the color and kept washing out. Meanwhile I was losing tons of hair as it was getting more and more damaged. Four months later I ended up with a chemical haircut and a nasty faded red-purple color. Horrific. I have been blonde most of my life and just wanted to feel like myself again. Oops removed 70% of the color out of my hair because I only purchased one box thinking "I don't have any hair left anyway" but the other reviewers are correct. You need at least 2-3 boxes regardless of how much hair you have. So I still have some pink in the back but I will buy a couple more boxes and in a few weeks, get the rest out. I have been wearing wigs anyway because my hair is so damaged but at least now I can just let it grow back to blonde. I was pretty amazed at how the red/purple just disolved away and I didn't even lose any more hair, which I was really afraid of!

It didn't do what it said it would do.

My super thick hair is naturally medium blonde with a Lily Munster pure white streak from my left temple across the top of my head to behind my right ear. I've been dying my hair darker (mostly auburn or chestnut brown) for a while but this last time when I touched up my roots my Lily streak turned Raggedy Ann orange! I used the Color Oops and it really did turn the blonde back to what I remember my natural blonde being. My white streak is slightly yellow but I can live with it until I figure out what dark color I want to try next. And now I also know how long it takes for my water heater to drain it's hot water, about 3 minutes sooner than it takes to use this product. haha!

Although it smells like a perm, it works. It takes all of the dark color out of your hair. It will however lighten your hair even more if you are trying to strip the lightened hair.

As many other reviewers I am one who is no a "virgin" to hair dye. My natural hair color is dark brown which I reverted back to about 8 months ago at a salon. Yesterday I ddecided I'd dye my hair a dark red color(attemping to be an Emma Stone in Easy A if you can imagine....). It did not come out good. The roots were purple-red and the tips were super dark brown with a tint on purple red. I made an appointmnt with a stylist who wouldn't be able to get me in for a few days. In the meantime I found all the positive reviews for this product and decided to try it.

I have long hair( down to the middle of my back) so I bought two boxes of oops. I only used one though, but it was nice having the other just in case. I started on the bottom and covered my whole head in a warm bathroom and then covered my hair with the provided shower cap. I waited the recommened 20mins and rinsed my hair very well. Then I shampooed with paul mitchell color care, rinsed and shampooed with head and shoulders-rinsed again. As one of their tips suggests I put a pantene 2min conditioner all over my hair with a shower cap and let that sit for 20mins so my hair wouldnt grab too much of the new color. Then I blow dryed my hair. It felt dry but not too bad considering the past two days its had. The color was pretty ugly but it was almost uniform. The roots remianed lighter than the tips-which I fully expected. Next I dyed my hair with my natural color-dark bown. As the tips say only leave it on for 5 mins since you hair is porus now and will grab the color super fast! I did my roots the most and then combed it throught to the tips-- since they were darker I didn't want to put too much color on them. Then I hopped back in the shower for the 4th time today. Overall I'm really pleased with the results. Its all one color and its a nice color. My hair feels dry but I'm going to do some deep conditioning treatments over the next few days and leave it alone!
