How do you make a SOAP CAP to remove black dye from brown hair?

Any hair colorists out there? This was permanent dye on my son's hair. I don't want to ruin him.

I was told by a cosmetologist to wash hair in DAWN dishwashing soap and leave suds on for 10-15 minutes and it might strip it off. If not, I was told to mix the DAWN with 20 volume developer and do the same procedure. However, I forgot to ask the ratio of soap to developer....does anyone know?

How do you make a SOAP CAP to remove black dye from brown hair?

Yes, a soap cap will help lift color from the hair; however, depending on how black it is, you may not be able to lift it to the level you want. What you will probably end up with is an orangy, brassy color. After you try to soap cap, you may want to apply a bleach product with 10 volume developer to lift it some more, you will definitely have to apply a color over the top to achieve the look you want, make sure to use a semi-permanent color( they tend to be more gentle on the hair). If the hair has any brassiness in it you will want to stay with a neutral color, colors with warmth will cause red and any ashe colors will cause green. A hair cut after is a must. If this makes you nervous at all, I recommend a trip to the salon, it may save you time and frustration, just make sure that you get a price quote before they start, as this process is considered a "corrective color".

How do you make a SOAP CAP to remove black dye from brown hair?

I wouldnt recommend doing that and i have never heard such a thing when a soap is 'developed' ,for that effect you will probbly be better off setting some hair bleach with 10 vol for very few minutes. Try ask another styler to remove the color herself with a special color remover it should cost you much max $20 , there she can use with 10 vol only. Another thing you can do after is tell her to put back his real color on top (maybe a semi-permanent) so you deposit some of the same natural pigment and have his hair grow , that way you wont have roots. Make sure your son gets a trim to get rid out of dry ends.

How do you make a SOAP CAP to remove black dye from brown hair?

Black color is the most difficult to remove. A soap cap is actually used to remove excess color on the skin and scalp before you rinse the color out of the hair. This is made by blending using two parts soap to one part of developer, or adding soap/shampoo to the hairline/scalp and massaging in.

I don't believe this will help to remove the color out of his hair. I think you will have to use a hair bleach with a developer to remove the color. Unfortunately, soap will not remove permanent color. If going to a color correctionist is not an option, at most beauty supplies(Sally's), there is a color remover sold in a paper packet that you blend with a low level (20 volume) developer to remove permanent color. You may have to repeat the process to get his hair to the shade you want. This is a BLEACH, so follow the directions and use caution. Good luck!
