Hello!
I have a slight problem,
I bought colour B4 to take the remaining blue out of my hair in order to lighten my base
BUT I don't have any clarifying shampoo! I cowash & never use silicones, is that ok to use it anyway on my hair?
To be honest ages ago when I asked about colour b4 on washed or unwashed hair I'm pretty sure I had mixed responses. But it's only recently every seems to be saying it needs to be done on squeeky clean hair. If I remember correctly I did it to take out MP wildfire on just my normal hair that was washed like a day or 2 before or something. It worked fine for me.
Thank you! I applied it just now and divided the amount by 2 just in case I'd need to have another go at it π
If you don't have a specific clarifying shampoo, any shampoo that is sulphate based and doesn't contain any coating ingredients (ie silicones or oils etc) will do. You just want to deep clean your hair so nothing is blocking the colour remover.
So... I didnt use shampoo and my hair as been taken to a green toned yellow.
Here's the "before" photo and the "after"
I wonder where to go from there as I want a nice clean base for my next dye job. Should I do another round of Colour B4 right now, or should I deep condition before? Or maybe do a bleach bath in a week?
It took loads out. What colour are you aiming for next? You may get more dye out over the next few days as you continue to wash it.

I'm aiming for light (not pastel) blue, purple, and turquoise. Maybe some pink.
I realise I will need to get to a really pale blonde but now I have the BlondMe bleach which is bomb so I think I'll only need one low volume bleach bath.
What worries me is what to do before that ! Uni is one week away but I can stretch things a bit, I don't really mind having yucky hair for a day or two and my hair's health is more important !
I would only bleach if your base wasn't light enough. Blue, purple and turquoise will cover the remnants of blue (light pink may go lilac or silvery though)but obviously lighter colours will need a lighter base.
HOw is your hair now? my hair is this exact shade π i wanna go back to blonde but the more i try bleach bath the more yellowy green swamp colour it goes
