I had blue hair for about 4 months. I was sick of the color and wanted something more natural. I tried the ion color remover, but it didn’t do anything. Yesterday, I went to cosmo prov (cosmetology student) I tried DDL with a 10 volume developer. It really lifted my hair color to a light mint green. Today I’m giving my hair a break from shampoo and trying it again tomorrow with water to save damage. This stuff worked for me so far, I hope the 2nd time will really take away the color.
when we used it at school on my hair it lifted all the color. I've been the color of the rainbow, brown, blonde and back again. I had pink and put purple over it. then lifted that and pit 6na foiled with blonde highlights. I put purple over it again and it lifted my hair color to a level 10! it's crazy awesome stuff we used 20vol so that might have been why
I have used Malibu ddl several times and I'm so thankful for having it as a plan b for color oopsies. I had level 7rc and wanted to go more auburn with a 5 rc and not sure how but it turned my hair and almost black plum color. Used this and my hair actually turned to the color I wanted xD
I just got the ddl today and in hopes that it extracts a good at least cpl levels. i have joico ruby red in my hair and on top a dark brown rusk mixed with little bit of pravana black (totally made it black, but what i wanted). VERY grown out and faded especailly on ends. I usually use the pravana extractor but also notice with that product a lot of compromising as well. Does make me nervous your hair was compromised using only water... making me debate using 10 dev (no way on the 20 for me lol). THANKS for the video and feedback, its what i was looking for! I may come back and respond with my results as well!
My stylist just used the DDL on me today- I went from a faded and mixed Kenra 8SM & Pravana Silver to a level 9 blonde and it completely got rid of the silver in about 15 minutes. It was CRAZY how awesome it worked!
Thank you so much for posting! I added a toner and removed all my highlights. Since you said that water only created a minimal effect I went ahead and used a 20 developer. My hair is back to normal and I'm able to see my highlights again! Yay! You might want to add how to remove a toner to your description box ;)
I am wondering if you removed the minerals/metals and salt from your hair prior to using DDL? You said in the video that you had been snorkeling in Hawaii?
+Trisha Kemp Rice Hi! I didn't do that step prior to DDL but I'm looking forward to trying it again so i will try that next time. how have you done that? I was doing my hair for our vacation to Hawaii. I hadn't gone yet ;)
+ChromaCrowns Get the Malibu Makeover kit :] The crystal gels are supposed to draw all of the minerals out. You should do it before you try and remove pigment.
ChromaCrowns any advice for an over 60 year old who would like to get back to her natural color/gray without damaging my long (past my shoulders) healthy hair
Do you think this would help remove green pigments from my hair? I used to bleach and tone and then I tried to go back to brown and used a dark blonde color and my hair turned green!
Little too late now, but next time get a brown that has red undertones or add a couple drops of red dye or color booster. You need the red to keep it balanced
Hi thanks for the video! Just wondering why you only applied the DDL half way up the hair strand at that line of demarcation? Was it because you werent trying to also remove the pink color? Also- if it were to be used closer to the scalp, how close can you get without messing with that virgin regrowth?
@@ChromaCrowns I have literally tried everything to get this teal out except the joico...it was sold out locally so I had to order it online, and if that doesn’t work-I give up
I was stupid and did my roots with permanent soft black and then did mermaid blue throughout. If I want to get rid of the blue but not the root, should I keep it off my roots even if I just mixed it with water?
its not supposed to lift permanent dyes specifically, but it will. its most effective against direct dyes, but it has lifting properties so be careful. Malibu CPR is more for oxidative dyes, so they've got a few to pick from
This was so helpful. Especially about the warmth avoidance.
I’m so glad you mentioned about how it changed the elasticity! Thanks!

How did it go?

yes! it works great! using with a developer will definitely give you a more dramatic result
I really enjoy you. Your tone of voice your opinion and you explain very clear and to the point! Thanks love for the video
Maybe we can mix Olaplex into the DDL with water to combat the damage to go for the full 45 mins. I'm going to test it out.
ashley geren did you try it? How did it go?
did you do it?
Olaplex will decrease the developer by 3%. So if you use 20 it will make it a 10 volume.

Cancel green use something red base

Did she mix it with water or developer?
mitten1031
I can't recall. I'll ask her tomorrow. :)
+mitten1031 water but you can use 10 or 20 volume too

awesome! so glad you found this helpful :)
+ChromaCrowns 😊
can you please share your formula and steps to get there of your purple col? it's awesome! !!
hi! i actually posted another video explaining what i used and how i applied it. :)

You’re actually supposed to use cpr first then ddl.
another video said do a protein treatment after
Tessa WB thank you! and yes I've been doing lots of protein and moisture treatments and my hair feels great again :)
ChromaCrowns any advice for an over 60 year old who would like to get back to her natural color/gray without damaging my long (past my shoulders) healthy hair
will this work with hair that has been dyed black? my hair is bleach free and brown below that.

how much was this?

maggie may hi! i only wanted to cut the green because the pink wouldn't have affected my next color (which was purple)
So beautiful your color
Awesome video! I will have to try that next time I change up my color ^.^
AgentShawnee Thanks for watching!! Yes, it works great!
Same thing happened to me...very little washed out
Right?! I’ve been resorting to other things to remove color and I will be doing an updated video on that soon, too. Thanks for watching!
@@ChromaCrowns I have literally tried everything to get this teal out except the joico...it was sold out locally so I had to order it online, and if that doesn’t work-I give up
I also really like the Pulp Riot color remover as well :)

I think it will only remove direct dies. if the black is permanent i dont thiiiink itll affect it
its not supposed to lift permanent dyes specifically, but it will. its most effective against direct dyes, but it has lifting properties so be careful. Malibu CPR is more for oxidative dyes, so they've got a few to pick from
I used it on my green dyed hair and it didn't work at all. Idk if it was the dye? It was one and only hair dye.
Lore Lei you can't remove one & only because it contains henna/vegetable oils...The only way to remove henna is to let it grow out. :)
Beautiful 😍 hair color.
Thank you!!
Where can I buy this?? I have access to stores like Cosmoprof and Salon Centric
ifuckedyourtiger i got mine at my local CosmoProf :) thanks for watching!
I got mine at SalonCentric
