October 31, 2017How to Bleach Bath - safely remove hair colour from your hair.
If you want to remove the colour from your hair without waiting for it to fade or grow out naturally, a bleach bath will do the trick.At Smart Beauty we are not just passionate about hair colour - we also want to give you the best advice too. This helps keep your hair in the best condition and, as bleach isn’t a gentle chemical, it's vital you are very careful with this process.

We care about your hair and want you to have your individual look without doing any damage.
What you'll need for a bleach bath
Preparation
Application
If you feel any burning or irritation, wash off immediately.
Checking and finishing off
It's very difficult to give time guidelines as it is so personal to you. Things that affect the timing are your type of hair, the intensity of the colour you want to remove and your natural hair colour. We want your hair to remain in the best condition possible so check very frequently -at least every four or five minutes. It will stop working after 60 minutes.
If this is your first bleach bath, make the first check even earlier.
How to check
To do this, separate out a small section of hair, scrape a bit of the bleach mix off and see how light it is. If you want to continue, put that section back and spread the mix back over it.
Once you're happy with the colour, rinse the mix off really, really well and apply conditioner. Leave the conditioner in for a bit longer than usual to prevent your hair drying out.
That's it! You can now leave your hair or apply a new colour, whatever you want.
