My hair has become much too dark, what can I do?Updated 6 months ago

If your color result has become too dark, try regular color prints. 

There are different methods for this:

First wash your hair with an alkaline shampoo (khadi's Neem Balance, but a naturally certified alkaline hair soap also works). Then carefully heat coconut oil and/ or olive oil in a water bath and apply a generous amount to your wet hair. Leave it all on over night and shampoo as usual the next morning. You can do this treatment about once a week.

 

Another good method would be to massage a mask of white clay and water into your hair in the direction of growth and leave it on for about an hour. Rinse it out with water only. 

 

You can create natural highlights by spraying water with lemon into your hair and then going out into the sun.


A slightly quicker but less gentle method is: Mix the Deep Charcoal Cleanse hair mask with 1 knife tip baking soda, 4 tbsp vodka and 4 tbsp lemon juice, then add enough water to achieve a creamy consistency and apply the mask to damp, freshly shampooed hair. Leave the mask to air dry for 45 minutes and then rinse it out with water only.  As this method can be slightly drying, use it in combination with the oil treatment afterwards (see the text above).
