Bleaching Yellow From White Hair

RE: Bleaching Yellow From White Hair Post By SarahJ (Guest Post) (07/05/2008) Vanessa - can you tell me what 'recipe' you used when putting peroxide in your conditioner? Thanks - I have lots of yellow streaks in my grey/white hair.

About once a week I use another brand to rid my hair of the build-up of used bluing shampoo for 25+ years with no blue hair to show for it, just shiny SILVER hair. See my profile. I'll be the one with the silver hair!

The blue shampoos help the bottom some but turn the top purple. I'm trying 20 volume developer mixed with my whits shampoo method. We'll see.

Hard water w some iron in it will do this. All the bluing and store stuff does is cover over the 'yellow' and eventually give you GREEN highlights. Use WHITE BLUE or CLEAR shampoo.( shampoo colors do stick to white hair) Remove the deposits in your hair with either baking soda mixed with your shampoo and rub the hair for a minute or two. then rinse. This can be drying so I only do once a week. And I use a rinse of 1 TBSP Vinegar to 1Cup filtered water. I've tried it all and this works. The blueing shampoos are nice on accasion but only after you have removed the yellow stain.

Report Spam or Abuse RE: Bleaching Yellow From White Hair Post By Jax (Guest Post) (08/09/2007) Framesi puts out a shampoo called Violights. It's much stronger than Clairol's Shimmer Lights. I'm in the process of bleaching my hair to white and this is removing the brassiness from my old hairdressers work & boosting my blonde up to white. Be cautioned, this stuff is so strong it tints your hands purple. You need to scrub this off your hands afterwards but it will help.

However i did read yesterday to use peroxide mixed with your conditioner - guess what it worked Report Spam or Abuse RE: Bleaching Yellow From White Hair Post By Vickie Linder (Guest Post) (06/26/2007) I've tried the Matrix So Silver with Recouvrer, which was suppose to take the yellow out of my white hair. Sad to report it hasn't worked for me. Has anyone tried something that works?

What you want is hair that is Silver! Try using a shampoo for silver hair and soon you'll have the results you want. I see Pantene makes a product for silver hair now. Your hair should sparkle! Best of luck, I too have the salt and pepper colored hair. Its a natural frosting...

It makes since, as I've heard its used to lighten dark skin on elbows, etc. Try it for awhile, and let us know how it works.

On the bottle it give instructions on blueing white hair. Good Luck. Liz P.S. Try an older grocery store chain ie Acme, Pathmark or even KMart Report Spam or Abuse RE: Bleaching Yellow From White Hair Post by Autumn (80) | (09/10/2006) Profile | Contact Wow Zelda Good question Have you ever heard of Sun In That lightens the hair has know chemicals.
