💥 Bleach Bath – Gently Remove Hair Color Residue
“Mirror, mirror on the wall…” 🪞
…and suddenly you realize: your old hair color doesn’t look that fresh anymore 😬
No worries, before you jump straight into a full-on bleach session, there’s a gentler option:
👉 a bleach bath

🧪 What is a bleach bath?
A bleach bath is basically a weaker version of a full bleach.
It uses the same ingredients, just heavily diluted.
➡️ Less hydrogen peroxide
➡️ Mixed with shampoo
➡️ Much gentler on your hair
💡 Perfect for you if:
you want to remove leftover hair color
your color has become patchy
you’re preparing for a new shade 🎨
👉 If you want to try other methods first:
remove old hair color – which method works best for your hair
⚠️ When is a bleach bath NOT suitable?
As gentle as it is, it has limits:
❌ Very dark natural hair
❌ Strong regrowth
❌ If you want to lift several levels
➡️ You might end up with orange or red tones 🍊
🛒 What you need
For your bleach bath, you’ll need:
30 g developer (1.9–3%)
30 g bleach powder
60 g shampoo (add more for a milder mix)
Bowl (plastic or ceramic)
Tint brush
Gloves 🧤
Kitchen scale
💡 Tip: Start with a low strength and repeat if needed. Your hair will thank you!
✂️ How to apply – step by step
1. Preparation
Apply on unwashed, towel-dried hair.
➡️ Protect clothes & surroundings
➡️ Put on gloves (trust us 😅)
2. Mix
Measure everything carefully and mix well.
❗ Important:
No metal tools – chemistry, you know… 🧪
3. Application
Section your hair
Apply to lengths first, then roots
Work quickly but thoroughly
4. Processing time
⏱️ 5–10 minutes (max. 20 minutes!)
👉 Check regularly to avoid:
unwanted orange tones
over-lightening
5. Rinse & aftercare
Rinse thoroughly with water 🚿
Now comes the important part:
👉 If you want to dye your hair right after:
❌ DO NOT use conditioner beforehand!
Why? Care products create a coating around your hair
➡️ Color can’t absorb evenly
➡️ Result: patchy or uneven color 😵💫
👉 Color first, then condition!
✔️ After coloring, make sure to use
care products for color-treated hair to:
smooth the hair structure
restore moisture
help your color last longer 💧
👉 If you’re not coloring right away:
Treat your hair to a deep conditioning mask. It deserves it 💚

Sometimes the mirror is right… but a little drama is part of the fun 😄🔥
