How To...Remove Dye From Your Hair Without Bleaching:
     

Although they may work with other dyes the following hints are for Special Effects Hair Dyes:
(these dye removal / fading tips may not work for everyone)
     
  Colour Stripper:
If your hair is a darker dyed colour (particularly black, brown & burgundy) a colour stripper should help lift the colour out. A colour stripper does not bleach your hair but it should remove any colour that is on your hair and bring your hair close to its natural colour. Development time could range from 20 minutes to 2 hours depending on your hairs dyed colour and condition - always follow the manufacturers instructions for use.
 
   
  Soapcap:
A soap cap is diluted bleach - 1 part bleach powder + 1 part developer + 2 parts shampoo. This is still a bleaching process (although weaker due to dilution) and as such it can still damage your hair - be careful and check regularly, however it should be less harmful to your hair than full bleach.		  
   
  Hot Water:
Rinsing hair in hot water after shampooing opens hair cuticles and can allow colour to fade faster (use as hot as your can bear without scalding yourself). 		 
   
  Sunlight:
Direct sunlight can significantly fade your hair dye colour making it an easier/lighter colour to dye over 		 
   
  Shampooing:
Shampoo hair as often as possible - dandruff control, dish soap and clarifying shampoos generally cause colour to fade faster, Clarifying shampoos are particularly good as they remove any build up of styling products etc on the hair that might be stopping the colour from washing out. Using these too often can dry out your hair so remember to condition well afterwards.
