Color Oops Extra Conditioning Hair Color Remover, 1 Application, Hair Dye Remover Processes in 20 Minutes, Safely Removes Permanent & Semi-Permanent Dye, Ammonia & Bleach Free

Works Great but the Smell Isn’t the Greatest
The Facts:- My hair had been dyed a couple months ago with 2 boxes of got2b’s metallic mermaid green semi-perm hair dye. It had slightly faded but as you can see in the pic (taken a couple days before dye removal) it was very much a teal color when I used this product.- I am Filipino and German by ethnicity, if that makes a difference to you in hair dye. The texture of it is pretty soft but not as soft as someone 100% European. My hair is naturally very dark brown (see eyebrows) but had been bleached professionally for a different color that faded out before I dyed it mermaid green.- My hair is pretty long, to lower-middle of my back and also very very thick. Think 6 hours to professionally bleach and dye thick. I also have naturally greasy hair and wash it (with color-safe products) every 2-3 days with a lot of conditioner so it doesn’t become noticibly greasy and feel gross.- I used 1 box of this product to remove the dye.The Review:I used this product because I was ready for a new color and wanted to go a shade that a box dye would show up on, due to how dark the mermaid green shade I currently had. At first, I was worried because it said it said it doesn’t work on some types of dyes, and I didn’t know if my last one was one of them. I was also worried because I only thought to get one box and I have very long and thick hair.Thankfully, the product worked great for me! As you can see in the picture, my hair returned to the bleached color it was before. There are a few spots I missed and you can see a little bit of the old color, but it wasn’t very noticible, at least not enough that I didn’t want to go out. I might have benefitted from a second box, but I don’t feel the need to buy one. I haven’t re-dyed my hair yet, even tho the box says you can, because I still want my hair to rest a little.The box comes with the gloves as well as a plastic “cap” and, of course, the formula and applicator.The instructions are clear- put on gloves, mix the formula in the applicator bottle, apply generously to hair, wait around while your hair is in the plastic cap and the chemicals do your thing, jump in the shower and shampoo thoroughly, rinse for a boring 20 minutes, then shampoo again, and finally rinse a final 5 minutes.I followed the instructions for the most part, but admittedly got out of the shower about 5 minutes early and also heavily conditioned my hair. Do this at your own risk, but the water got ice cold for me and I couldn’t take it anymore.The consistency of the stuff wasn’t what I was expecting, not like the consistency of box dye. Rather, it’s rather runny and watery, so when applying, I recommend being over a sink.And then there’s the smell. I understand that these are chemicals here and there’s only so much you can do about it, but the smell is not pleasant. I can only compare it to being in a salon when someone is getting a perm but the salon is also trying to mask the smell with some banana-scented candles. It wasn’t nausea-inducing, but it did take some getting used to. Then again, I also grew up on a farm and was subjected to the smells of chicken coops and septic tank whenever it rained too much, so I’m not sure I’m the best judge. Thankfully, the smell does not stick to YOU. However, it DOES stick to the bathroom. It’s been 4 days and it still reeks of it.Any Advice I Have Regarding the Product:- Plan out what you’re going to do for 20 minutes in the shower. If you’re not depressed, standing motionless in a shower for 20 minutes is not fun. If you are depressed, please seek professional care. I tried to pass the time by shaving my legs, but that wasn’t enough. My friend puts her phone in a ziplock bag and brings it with her. Again, do this at your own risk.- Heavily condition your hair afterward. Your hair will thank you.- Try your best not to spill any on the floor and throw out the used applicator asap to help prevent lingering smells.

Okay but not great for my spot correction needs
My usual color correction product was unavailable so I tried this one. Pros: very easy to mix and apply. Cons: the rinsing piece is overly arduous, results are kind of brassy in places, only 1-use per purchase. This didn’t hurt my hair and it did lighten it, but I’ve gotten better results with an at-home product that also left my hair feeling more conditioned and was simpler to rinse. I frequently dye my hair with permanent color (medium to dark brown with reddish tones) because of stubborn grays around my crown and temples. My hair is fine and the color can get too deposited around the front sections that frame my face–several times a year I apply a color corrector to remove the dye deposits only in those sections. It’s more economical for me to purchase a product that I can mix and use in the needed quantity, from which I can get several applications. (My hair is long and I would’ve needed to buy two of this product to do my whole head.) I assume my hair came out more orangey closer to my roots because that’s where the gray is, but with that very visible result up top, I would’ve expected more lightening at the ends. It sort of looks like highlights so it’s fine. Overall it’s an acceptable result and maybe better for whole head correction than spot correction.

I recently tried the Color Oops Regular Strength Hair Color Remover (RS100), and I’m thrilled to share my experience with you.My hair journey involved layers upon layers of red hair dye, and I decided it was time for a change. I chose Color Oops to help me with this transformation, and it didn’t disappoint.First off, the application process was surprisingly easy. The instructions were clear, and the product was straightforward to use. I appreciated that there was no need for complicated mixing or multiple steps.Now, let’s talk about the smell. Hair color removers can be notorious for their strong, unpleasant odors, but Color Oops was tolerable. While it didn’t smell like a bouquet of roses (let’s be realistic, it’s a chemical process), it was much more bearable than I expected.But what truly matters is the result, right? Color Oops worked wonders on my layered red hair. It effectively removed the built-up color, leaving my hair ready for a fresh start. The end result was satisfying and gave me the blank canvas I needed for my next hair color adventure.In conclusion, Color Oops RS100 is a reliable choice if you’re looking to remove hair color, even if you’ve piled on the layers. The application is straightforward, the smell is manageable, and the results are impressive. Give it a try if you’re ready for a hair color transformation!

Es fabuloso el producto, lo aplique tal como lo dice el instructivo, lo tenía negro y me lo coloco rojo, ahora me toca matar el color rojo, pero quita el color muy rápido. No daño mi cabello. De verdad para ser libre de amonio es increíble. Mi estilista me recomendó que me aplique castaño oscuro para ir degradando ese color. Claro tengo más de 15 años, usando negro azul. Recomiendo de verdad este producto es la primera vez que lo uso. Antes usaba color reverse de Salerm, es más costoso y les confieso la verdad no es jamás como esté. A pesar de ser este más economico es de veras Genial!!! Felicidades al vendedor ya que llegó en excelente y muy buen estado el producto. Lo volvería a comprar sin dudarlo ni por un instante. Gracias
