Not a Miracle, but not bad
Reviewer: Stephanie from Chicago   2008-12-10

I used the powdered version of this product, and I followed all the directions... and I got pretty good results. I must admit after reading some of the horror stories on here, I was scared to use it, but I tried it myself. No hair fell out, no horrible damage, lightened my hair about 3 shades :D (black to light red)

this is terrible!
Reviewer: carollynne from canton, ohio   2008-05-24

I wanted to use a product to take the black out of my hair not blond or highlights just BLACK, no bleach has ever been on my hair and yet this product still did not work!!!The only thing it did was cause me to loose tremendous amounts of hair{thank goodness it's sooo thick}, and cause me to have to cut my long hair.i even deep conditioned afterwards and my hair was still left a mess!!!Please don't buy this product, just watch what you do to your hair in general...big mistake

A professional tool. Not an at home cure!
Reviewer: L.J   2008-04-13

The reason why so many of you have been dissapointed with this product is because it is not the correct choice for the situation. Liquid Uncolor is a great product when used under appropriate circumstances. Color correction is complicated. It requires a complex and thorough knowlege of both color theory and chemistry. Correction takes YEARS of FULL TIME experience in a salon to learn how to correct haircolor successfuly. Some professional hairstylists are not qualified to do real corrective work, never mind a consumer doing it themselves with no real knowledge of color. Do yourself a favor and go to a salon for your correction, or at the very least a consultation with a haircolorist. Keep an open mind! If you have destroyed your hair over years of doing at home color your desired color may no longer be possible with one visit. Remember that the disaster was SELF INFLICTED! A good colorist will be able to make it immediately better, though, and will often be able to give you what you are looking for over a few appointments. PUT THE BOTTLE DOWN!

The Uncolor System
Reviewer: Shawn from Georgia   2008-02-01

I used this product a week after my relaxer. It is worthless. I followed the instructions accordingly and nothing happened!!! I have semi-permanant color in my hair. I was using it to reveal my natural color. I will not use Loreal hair products again. They are worthless!!!

Hair Fell Out!
Reviewer: Kat from Seattle, WA   2007-12-19

This product did help strip my hair back to what was more of it's originial color - but at a pretty horrible price. After shampooing out the product handfuls of hair started coming out of my head. This was obviously pretty frightening... Every time i shower hair is still coming out from the folical and I'm still unsure about how i can help my hair after damaging it at such a level. I don't even color my hair very often and it was pretty heathly... sad...I wish there had been a warning about this
