    Places like savers do the extra strength colour b4 for £6/7 a box if you have one near you.

    I also found it worked a lot better when my hair was wrapped in cling film and I used a hairdryer to heat it up through the process.
    Just you could try applying it to the ends of your hair and wrapping and heating them to see if you have more success with stripping it. My ends went blonde this way despite being dyed red, purple, black and god knows what else for a long time :D

  • I wrapped my hair in cling film & used a hairdryer for the fist 10 mins as directed. Still made no difference unfortunately.

    I am actually starting to wonder if the black semi I used was a bit dodgy as I have never had this problem before. I have used quite a few different brands aswell over the years. I should've kept the box so I could pass the info onto Clairol.

    I'm wondering, are some colour removers better than others?

    The one I used says it shatters the colour molecules rather than shrinks them like other products, so I'd say the answer is yes.
