What color is your hair naturally? All the color removers I know of will strip your hair if it has been dyed multiple times. Main reason when I dyed my platinum blonde (dyed) hair all over permanent hot pink, I let the pink fade naturally instead of using a remover, then I dyed it all over brown to cover the left over pink. It's easy to go lighter to darker, but difficult to go darker to lighter. Which is why I couldn't go from hot pink back to platinum blonde. As the saying goes, once you go black, you won't be able to go back lol. Unfortunately the only thing I know to do to get black out is to grow it out and cut it out. I can email my aunt that does hair and ask her for her opinion, but I need to know your natural hair color and how many times and colors you have colored the hair on your head, including the stuff that grew out. Oh and I need to know how often you colored. If your hair was not properly taken care of pre coloring and post, each time can take alot out of your hair. Oh and the examples you see online going from black to blonde, that is more than likely their natural color is black, that's alot different than a dyed black. Hard to explain why. Let me know and I'll see if I can get some answers.
