PunkyColour Off Hair Dye Remover Kit, Safely Removes Temporary, Semi-Permanent, Demi-Permanent, and Permanent Hair Colors, Easy and Gentle Hair Color Removal Solution

Basically a bleach bath but less complicated. You mix 2 ingredients and put it in your unwanted color. It works but beware that it will bleach your hair to a certain degree. My blond got blonder and my black hair around the roots actually turned brown. The directions did say water/bleach mixture will be enough to remove what I have but I chose to use the 20 developer. The semi color pretty much disappeared as I was applying the mixture, so probably overkill but it worked like a charm. Try a small amount water mixture just if you’re unsure. If it’s not working, make another mixture with the developer.

I have red hair and have been dying it green. The red does not like the green. It's hard to keep up with it. This made everything so easy. I can touch up the spots where the mint is fading into gold. I can do my roots. And I'm not sure if it's because of the color I've gone with (lots of iris green and a couple of dots of aquamarine artic fox = mint) but I can just do the roots and the few golden strands and then redye my head and it looks even and nice. It bleached the spots I put it on but I did not do it all over so I don't know how resistant the ends will be to losing the green. I added a photo of when I did the roots and right after I re-dyed it.I was surprised to get 3 sets of directions in the box and didn't know which to pick. I used the 20% volume that comes in the box and some conditioner I already had. I saw some people say they left it on for longer than the amount it recommended on the directions so I did go a little over on the time but not as long as some of the reviewers. I think it recommended 20 mins and reviewers said they did an hour but I think I did 30-45 mins. My hair was straw after but just like with a normal bleach job and needed lots of moisture the next week. I'll use it again and back off on the time and see how it does. I need to find a good balance between fried and white and less damaged but too much red. This product did a better job of it than the regular bleach jobs I've tried in the past so I am calling it a winner.

Didn’t work at all!! I have boxed semi-permanent dark brown hair that I wanted to pull out and dye a medium/ashy brown for summer. I bought two boxes of this. I ran out 3/4 the way and had to use a box of COLOR OOPS I had laying around (my hair is to my boobs and it’s petty thin). THE COLOR OOPS worked and this product did not. It only lightened my roots to an orangey blond 😱 buying three boxes of colors oops and having them overnighted. Hate having to go to work like this tomorrow 😡

This stuff is amazing. I used it to remove purple direct dye that I had placed over a faded blue on level 10 hair. I had previously tried the vitamin C treatment because I saw it worked for many others, not me though. My hair was still pretty vivid in the middle and faded on the bottom. It took out every bit of color and left me with the level 10 hair I started with. I had about 3 inches of regrowth and it bleached my roots to a level 9. I only left it on for 15 minutes total.This will absolutely bleach your natural hair color if you get it on it so make sure you apply it with a brush to only the parts you wish to remove color from. This is bleach, make no mistake. If you are wanting to remove your color and bleach your roots apply it to your roots first for about 5-10 minutes depending on how dark your hair is. After 5-10 minutes put it on your lengths. Make sure you apply it evenly and don't miss any spots. Check your hair every couple minutes. I would not wait longer then 5 minutes to check because even though it was only 20 volume developer it lifted my color fast. It bleached everything evenly and the mask afterwards makes your hair feel much softer. I will use this again but they should absolutely have it somewhere on the box that this is bleach and that it will lift your natural color. That is why I took off a star.

I really like this product! I've used it before to remove hair dye, and it's worked nicely every time. I use it on my roots as well to prepare for the next color, and it doesn't lift much, of course, so the 20 vol is perfect for my already lightened hair. Normally I leave it on for 30 minutes. I used the mascara this time and it made my hair feel smooth afterwards, I was not a fan of the smell but it was ok. I recommend this to remove dye, but keep in mind it will lighten your hair.

Color off really took off all the permanent red out of my hair and left me blonde. Which now I can start new fashion colors. I love it

Got this after it was recommended to me but it was a fail. Tbh I wouldn’t have used it if I hadn’t of already purchased it by the time I realized it was really just bleach. It definitely lightened the red and bleached some of my roots which I can’t complain about but it feels much more damaged than if I would have just used color oops like I usually do.

This is the 2nd time I have used this product so I figured I would give it a review and give some advice. It isn’t bleach but you are still adding a 20 developer to a color removing product. If you put it on your roots they are going to lighten so be careful. It says in the directions to not use on overly damaged hair. I had bleached hair under my color and my hair didn’t fall out or get gummy like it would if I had used bleach. It removes color in a fraction of the time bleach would so it’s not in your hair for as long. It worked very well and very fast at getting manic panic pink and purple out of my hair. It left a slightly pink cast but lifted most of the dye out. Punky Colour is a fashion color hair dye brand so it lifts fashion colors really well. If I want to switch my hair color this is my go to method. I was able to dye my hair blue the same day I used the color remover. I can’t say it will work for every hair dye brand but it works well removing manic panic.
