Scott CornwallDecolour Hair Colour Stripper, Removes natural and artificial pigment, Ammonia-Free Colour Stripper and Lightener, Low-Peroxide Cruelty-Free

I was a bit trepidatious about using this but had to try something as I needed to remove the dark purple colour I had put on my dark blonde with grey hair. I had also built up quite a few layers of other colours underneath. It's not difficult to use but it is a bit of a faff. (To be fair that is probably true of colour removers in general!) It recommends reading the instructions twice before you start and I would definitely echo that. The main stuff is a bit smelly but not at all unbearable (and I am very sensitive to smells) but the other lotions and potions smell quite pleasant. One thing that was surprising was that when I washed off the colour remover part I expected the water to run quite murky but it was totally clear. Slight panic at that point in case it hadn't worked! When the moment of truth arrived at the end of the process I was actually amazed - there was no sign of the purple or other colours left in my hair. It was totally back to normal, albeit an awful lot greyer than I remembered!This wasn't as expensive as some of the colour removers but it seems to have worked really well and the smell isn't too bad. I would definitely buy it again.

I have been colouring my hair for years and have used a wide range of brands. I never had a problem until I used Age Perfect for the first time. The colour I chose was warm golden brown and the colour shown on the pack looked attractive and very similar to previous colours I have used. However my hair did not turn out to be "warm golden brown". The colour I got was very dark - almost black. My hair is long and my fringe and around my hairline turned out slightly lighter but the rest, especially the ends were, as I have said, almost black. Other than get my hair cut short, I didn't know what to do. I tried using a lighter colour but this had no effect. I came across this product and decided to give it a try. It was quite a lengthy, laborious process which I followed to the letter and I left the product on for the maximum time stated. It had no effect whatsoever! My fringe and my hairline which have most grey, remained grey with bright ginger ends. It looked horrendous and the rest of my hair was as dark as ever. I momentarily thought about buying another pack and trying again but the first application had so little effect that I did not feel that it was worth trying it. I have to wait at least 7 days before colouring my hair again and during that period I have to wash my hair at least 3 times. I am currently going through this process. In the meantime I am wearing my hair in a tight bun and I am also wearing a broad hairband. I am spraying my fringe and hairline with Root Perfect which is a temporary spray for touching up roots. In this way I am managing to look reasonably presentable until I colour my hair again. Unfortunately when I colour my hair again, although I will chose a lighter colour, it will not colour all the dark hair I have been left with. This product was a total disappointment and I would advise you not to waste your money.

After a visit to the hair salon, I found the root colour to be too dark/black. Weeks of washing didn’t fade it. I brought this from Amazon and it restored the warm chocolate highlights back to my hair and took away the cool dark hues. Very pleased. The product smells awful but it was worth it! My hair was in good condition afterwards not too dry.

Although a slight smell, hence 4/5 stars, this hair remover is so better than colour b4!My hair was bright red (Live Red box colour), and I've gone back to my light auburn.Absolutely love this product!!I would buy this if you have stubborn built up colour. Before I was red, I was purple and this has removed ALL of it.I don't want to dye my hair bold colours anymore, so don't plan to buy again, however strongly recommend.

i’m not denying that this product doesn’t work, because by looking at the reviews, it seems really good… however it doesn’t seem to lift permanent vibrant red hair. i followed the instructions exactly, and even repeated the process twice, but to no avail.i’ve ordered another hair dye remover specifically for red hair now, but i think this was most likely my mistake as i simply guessed it would work for any colour. for reference, i am naturally ginger, and i’ve had problems with hair dye before where it either stays for way too long or doesn’t stick to the colour of my hair, but i have used a different hair dye remover before (ordered this one as i cant remember the brand of the one i used) and it has worked.basically, just make sure you get a dye remover that will definitely work for your colour of hair. i’ve seen in the reviews that this particular product is great for removing dark natural colours, so i’d say go for it if that’s your colour and you wanna strip it!(It doesn’t smell that nice by the way. it’s not unbearable, but sort of gives off a burnt plasticy smell… I can imagine the scent will be gone in a couple washes though)

I mistakenly dyed my hair with a dark copper dye (my base was lighter copper) and it went absolutely dark brown (!!) I hated to look at myself in the mirror with that dark colour because it just doesn’t suit me. I read lots of reviews full of people moaning about this and that but still stuck to the positive ones. Guys: don’t expect a miracle. Know your hair background, the colours you been using etc. don’t expect it to do a miracle on you because it won’t. I dyed my hair light copper for YEARS (minimum 10) so I believe this made everything “easier”. My hair is thin, straight and despite all that, it still feels soft and shiny. The smell now: ok. It doesn’t smell pleasant BUT it is not as bad as people say at all. Do it next to a open window if you’re too sensitive to strong smell but honestly this is absolutely bearable!I give it 5 stars because it worked perfectly for me. I’m so so happy! Very high quality, very well explained and clear step by step instructions. Cant fault it.
