Talk about the risk of hair damage. Many people with black hair often want to go to a salon to bleach or dye their hair. Before deciding whether to dye your hair, you need to talk to your stylist about potential damage.
- Dyeing your hair platinum will definitely leave damage to your hair. Your hairdresser may refuse to dye your hair platinum if your hair has been treated with color before because the damage will become much more significant. [1] X Research Source
- Talk to your hairdresser about how you want to lighten your hair color. A professional can assess the current condition of your hair and determine which lightening method is the least damaging. [2] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/a4/Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-2-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Lighten-Dark-Hair- Step-2-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/a4/Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-2-Version-3.jpg/ v4-728px-Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-2-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Do not color the hair roots. Damage from bleaching and dyeing can become more severe if the chemical comes into contact with the scalp and hair follicles. Therefore, you should consider letting your hair roots grow at least 1.3 cm before re-coloring your hair to minimize damage. [3] X Research Sources
- The average hair grows by about 1.3 cm per month, but this depends on the person and the time of year. That means you should dye again after 4-6 weeks is best.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b8/Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-3-Version-5.jpg/v4-728px-Lighten-Dark-Hair- Step-3-Version-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/b8/Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-3-Version-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-3-Version-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Take care of your hair more carefully after dyeing. Hair will need more care after coloring in the salon. You should talk to your hairdresser about how to care for your hair after dyeing.
- Ask your hairdresser about moisturizing and at-home hair care steps. Hair dye can make your hair drier than usual. [4] X Research Sources
- Consider applying a Primer to your hair before shampooing. Primer products can help block water so that the dye lasts longer. [5] X Research Sources
- Consider using coconut oil or a conditioner containing protein. These products help repair damaged hair caused by bleaching and dyeing. [6] X Research Source
Using ingredients at home
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f1/Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-4-Version-5.jpg/v4-728px-Lighten-Dark-Hair- Step-4-Version-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/f1/Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-4-Version-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-4-Version-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use vinegar and water. Washing your hair with a mixture of water and vinegar helps lighten hair color in some cases. You can mix vinegar with water in a ratio of 1:6. Then, use the mixture to wash your hair for 15 minutes. Apple cider vinegar is more effective and smells better. [7] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/6d/Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-5-Version-5.jpg/v4-728px-Lighten-Dark-Hair- Step-5-Version-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/6d/Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-5-Version-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Lighten-Dark-Hair-Step-5-Version-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use salt. Regular table salt also has an impact on hair color. Some people claim that the hair color becomes lighter after swimming in salt water. You can add salt to water in a ratio of 1:5 and then use the mixture to wash your hair. Leave it on for about 15 minutes and then wash it off as usual. [8] X Research Sources

Remove temporary dye color with vitamin C powder and shampoo. If a deep-cleansing shampoo doesn’t work, you can get rid of the dye temporarily by adding vitamin C powder to your existing shampoo. This mixture helps lighten the color of the dye by removing the color from the hair.
- You can buy vitamin C powder at online or grocery stores. Mix vitamin C powder with shampoo in the ratio 1:2. Wet your hair and apply shampoo, then put on a cap. You should wrap a towel around your neck to prevent the mixture from dripping and incubate your hair for about 1 hour. [20] X Research Sources
