Olive oil removes hair colour? Not really...

Yes, as always I am trying to get the hair colour out of my hair once again. It hasn't even been a week! This time around though, I'm not using drugstore bought colour strippers. I'm trying other methods. As of right now, crazy as it may seem, I have completely drenched my hair in olive oil and have a plastic bag around my head. And it's almost 2 am so I really have to sleep... So I am going to bed tonight with olive oil in my hair, and a plastic bag on my head. And a towel on top of my pillows so they don't get all greasy in case the bag comes off. I'm really skeptical that this will remove any colour at all, but olive oil is good for the hair anyway, right? So even if it doesn't do anything for my hair colour, at least it will condition my hair over night. I'll come back in the morning with the results.

I just washed the olive oil out using my clarifying shampoo, and the olive oil was so hard to wash out! I shampooed my hair 3 times, left the shampoo in for a few minutes the last time, and I could still feel it in my hair. I have to say though, my hair feels super soft and silky now! But I can still smell the olive oil... And I HATE the smell of olive oil. I don't know if it's just me, or if it actually does, but I honestly think it smells like fish. Oh and of course, my hair didn't lighten one bit. And if it did, it would've been so little that it's not even noticeable. Maybe it's because I didn't apply heat to it. Or maybe it's supposed to be done regularly to gradually lighten it. But I would probably never do this regularly since it is such a hassle to wash out. Now I know though, if I need a good deep conditioning treatment, this is definitely something I can do.

I do have another plan though, and I'm more confident that this one will work. I'm just trying it out now, and waiting for it to do its magic. :)

Heheeeehe it worked! :)

I will be posting a tutorial for it very soon.
