Directions:

For full color correction:

1. Apply to dry hair.
2. Mix equal parts of  Colorfix Part 1 Color Reducer and Part 2 Conditioning Catalyst in tint bowl or an applicator bottle. (Mix as much as will be needed for the density and length of hair that requires correction.) Wearing gloves and using a tint brush, apply quickly and evenly to the hair. If mixed in an applicator bottle, shake vigorously until thoroughly mixed (45 seconds to 1 minute). Gently work through the hair to ensure even penetration. After mixing Part 1 Color Reducer and Part 2 Conditioning Catalyst, use as quickly as possible, since the activity of the mixture decrease with time.
3. Cover loosely with a plastic cap, and process up to 20 minutes. Strand test frequently. Low, warm dryer heat may be used to speed processing time.
4. Rinse hair for 3-5 minutes and shampoo. If sufficient color is not removed, repeat Step 2 and 3 (this may be done on damp, towel-dried hair). Depending on condition of scalp and hair, do not repeat process more than 2-3 times.
5. When desired level of color removal has been achieved, apply Processing Lotion for 5 minutes. (Due to the nature of dye molecules, it is possible that hair may redarken to an unacceptable level. If it does, repeat Steps 2-4 on damp hair, until sufficient color is removed.)
6. Rinse well. Dry hair with a warm heat setting. (A hot setting may cause scalp irritation.) You may now proceed with your color application, if performing a full color corrective service.

For slight color correction (lighten color that has gone too dark or ashen):

1. Mix 1/4 oz Part 1 Color Reducer + 1/4 oz Part 2 Conditioning Catalyst + 1 oz Shampoo.
2. Wearing gloves, apply to damp, towel-dried hair. Apply only to the areas of the hair that require lightening, and work into lather. To determine timing, take a strand test frequently.
3. When the desired shade has been reached, rinse thoroughly and shampoo.

Tips for successful color correction:

• Always strand test color formulas to be used prior to application. Remember, porous hair will absorb colors more quickly and the resulting hair color may be slightly darker. You may need to formulate 1-2 levels lighter than desired result.
• Always use a low pH conditioner after an application of Colorfix. This will help protect the hair, and return it to a more normal state.
• Colorfix is developed to remove oxidative dyes. Since most semipermanent colors are combination of direct dyes and oxidative dyes, Colorfix may only partially remove these.

THIS STUFF IS GREAT!!!
Reviewer: Nicole from Menifee, CA   2008-04-25

Long story short, I died my hair Bigen perminant Dark Brown, which turn out Jet Black, used this 2oz of 1, and 2oz of 2 and 2 1/2 oz of Herbal Essance Moisturizing Shampoo, and I used 3, which made my roots natural color instead of the brassy color people are getting from not using. My hair is now a beautiful Mahogony Brown. You have to try this...

Yes!

I've been coloring my fringe, for a while, a semi-permanent crimson. Unfortunately, my hair soaked up the red and would not go back to the (bleach) blonde underneath, staying a washed-out pink. I tried stripping it, but no luck. I found these reviews, talked to the woman at Sally's, and voila! My fringe is blonde again. Yay! I did the full color correction, applied heat constantly for about six or seven minutes, conditioned well, and my hair doesn't feel fried. I still have plenty left and will keep it handy in case the violet I'm about to attempt turns out badly.

Removes the color, for sure!

Okay, so I had a bit of a coloring disaster, well a couple actually. I tried to do bright red highlights in my hair, hair that was dyed a soft, temporary black. Needless to say, the bright red only showed up on my roots where natural growth was occuring, leaving the rest of my hair black. So bright red roots....dark hair...yuck!!! I panicked, and went out and bought a box of dark midnight black hair dye, slapped it on my hed, and dyed the rest of my hair black. Well, I got sick of dead black real fast. I have a fair complexion and light green eyes, so the black was way too harsh. Plus, summer is coming up; I wanted to lighten. I used Extra Strength Color Oops TWICE and did not have the results I'd hoped for. It made my hair brown again, with lighter roots where the red had been, but I still had streaks of really dark hair running through it. I didn't want any dark at all, so I picked up a box of this after reading the reviews on this site. I put it on my hair and left it on for about an hour, with a plastic bag over my head loosely and did about 3-4 two minutes blasts with the blowdryer ( I really wanted no more black!!) Shampooed, deep conditioned, stepped out of the shower and YOOWWWWWW!!!! My hair is an auburn-ish orange now. Well, no more black. Now I'm not sure what dye to use to cover it; a light blonde or a light brown, because I'm not sure how it will mix with the orange. Might wait a few days to see if the color tones down a bit....didn't touch my natural roots, so I have some natural growth there. I also skipped the processing lotion after doing a strand test and the strand was completely dark again after five minutes. It's an unecessary step really, esp. because the box flat out TELLS you that the lotion may "darken your hair to an unacceptable level again" and make you have to repeat the whole, smelly process (yes, it smells wicked.). Why bother? Just skip the lotion. But yeah...gets rid of the dye, but if you have natural roots they will be showing again, and it will almost certainly turn normal brown hair orange if you had dyed it black or a dark brown.

Wonderful

I had been dying my hair black for 6 years, and red for 4 years before that. My natural hair color is dirty blonde and I just had a baby so I wanted to go back to blonde so our hair colors would match. First I bought 2 of the Loreal hair color remover kits and used those. They made my hair dry and brittle, and removed some of the color, but left my hair like 50 different shades from bleach blonde to dark brownish-red. Then I read a review online about the One-n-only Colorfix product and decided to buy it, mostly because there are multiple uses in one box. It totally evened out all of the colors and made it all a light strawberry blonde. I'm still going to dye it to make it less red, but I would definitely recommend it to everyone. The only issue I had with it was the smell. It made me very nauseous so make sure when you use this product you use it in a well ventilated area.

Beware!

I used this product 3 times in a row (left it on hair for about 1 hour each time) to get rid of my old dark brown permanent haircolor and it worked so-so. It turned my hair a reddish/orangish/brown, which I expected. But when I put on a light brown permanent haircolor, my hair turned black again! I had to do the colorfix one more time to get rid of that nasty color. I learned to strand test this time! So be careful if you are going to recolor, do a strand test first because your hair can return to its old color. I had to go to a salon to get me to a very light brown. They had to get my hair more discolored plus put on a soap bleach cap to get it to orange. Also, if you're trying to go lighter and your hair is colored dark, you probably will need a soap bleach cap or more in addition to the color remover. I found this new color remover called vanish color remover and I'm going to try it next time when I decide to go blonde. Right now I'm giving my hair a break. COlorfix is OK, but it could be better.
