20 Best Bleaching Powder For Dark Hair (2022 Updated)

Quick blue works great! It has worked better for me than any other lightning powder I’ve ever used. I am very satisfied with results. It worked very well with a 40 volume developer to get my hair light enough so Arctic Fox color would be extremely vibrant and fun! I often recommend quick blue to family and friends.

Will continue to buy at Sally’s and use this product. My hair is naturally dark brown/black. In the darker picture below I was lightened with a couple bleach baths and previously had Arctic fox colors Wrath and Purple af in it.

I had not used color remover before bleaching, mostly because I really dislike the smell. Also, I am definitely not a professional. I am just doing this for fun and because I like it. In my opinion, life is too short and its just hair, it grows back.

So have fun and do what you want. Cut it short, color it blue, pink, green, who cares. As long as you like it, it is your hair after all. Don’t let anyone or even yourself hold you back from doing what you want! I hope this review will help someone out there.

I have bleached my hair before an the directions on this product not great 2 ozs is not enough developer it was like baking soda once it had mixed tried to get it in my hair in fpur sections like it says nope was like cement trying to put in my hair.

My husband ended up putting more developer in my hair to try an mix it in an for it to spread more thank god he did cause otherwise it qouldve been patches. Npte i ended up using 2 packets an still not enough I highly dont recommend using this product at all shimmerimg white an developer a lot better.

I couldnt remember what i used last time so igave this a try. It didnt work my hair is now orangish red lookimg an still can see brown to. Called the one I went to years ago they told me shimering white purple label an npw that I see it i can remember that was it an it will get it done first time make sure when you do this it is like a cake batter not a baking soda mixture wont work an it was burning me at the end to.

I think this is the BEST bleach powder on the market. It can be mixed with 20, 30, or 40 developer; whereas other bleach powders I’ve used can only be mixed with 20 or 30. I saw alot of reviews that said it was strong and would cause you to cough, but I didn’t have any of that.

It mixed very well and quickly with the developer, it wasn’t clumpy and I didn’t have to add more developer to get the consistency I wanted. Fast acting, as soon as I put it on my hair it was blonde.

Directions said wait 45 minutes, but my locs were done baking in 30 minutes. It was very easy to wash out and that was a big plus for me because I have locs. It takes some work to get all of the shampoo and conditioner out of locs so I assumed this would be the same, but no it came out pretty quickly.

This is now my go to bleaching powder.

Clairol Basic White is a bleaching product for highlights, all over lightening or balayage. It must be closely timed or you can easily fry your hair, it’s great for lightening hair when you want add colors like Fuschia, Red or other funky colors desired.

It’s also great for summer highlights. I love working with Basic White, it’s makes applying certain colors easier by cutting the work in half. I recommend this if your looking to lightening your or your besties hair.

Just watch the timer or she may no longer be your bestie.

I don’t like this bleach to be honest. It does lighten. But for my hair that’s very dark, even using a 30-40 volume peroxide with the bleach it will maximum go 3 shades lighter. Unless you keep bleaching it 2-3x which I wouldn’t recommend because it will be very damaging.

Clairol does have another bleach that has blue powder and is Meant for darker hair. I would recommend that one if you have dark hair or are wanting to go over 3 shades lighter.

I was depressed some Months ago due to how frustrating it is dealing with bad credits, but reaching out to HACK VANISH via Phone: +1 (747) 293-8514 and Email: HACK VANISH (@) GMAIL. COM gave my life a new meaning, after I found him credible through positive reviews I read on a credit blog, in a twinkle of an eye, this great hacker got my credit score restored from 509 to 784 across the 3 major credit bureaus, all evictions and repossession has been wiped off, my LexisNexis and Chex system fixed respectively, to my greatest surprise, some days later, I received an E-mail confirming the approval of my pending loan application.

I can confidently say 2021 was an exceptional year for my husband and I as we are proud owners of a new home and a brand-new SUV courtesy HACK VANISH, I would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of a genuine Hacker.

 this product is absolutely amazing and does an awesome job for such a cheap price! For the longest time I wanted to bleach my hair and I saw this in the beauty store and instantly grabbed it! The first time I grabbed one because I thought that would be enough for a little patch of hair but my hair being very dark I had to buy a second packet XD The results I got and how quickly it when light was almost scary at first, and surprisingly my hair took it very well and did not snap off because I coated my hair strands like to no other 🤗 Being a bleach virgin, I was terrified and had to watch multiple videos from professional hairstylist and people who are used to color their hair at home to know exactly what to do and how to do it.

Thank you Brad Mondo, thank you Gabby and thank you to all professional hairstylist out there who try to educate those who cant always afford to pay $100 per year session!! I will definitely be buying this again as I guess the phrase goes ‘once you go blonde you want to never go back…’ 😂😂😂.

This is my first time using this bleach. I usually use a Wella bleach from Sally’s. I heard that this is a very common bleach for at home bleaching. I wanted allot of bleach for cheap, since I can’t go out and get my usual bleach (thanks to covid).

This is a great size, especially if you just want to keep up on your roots, this will last you a while I imagine. It is less dusty than average bleach, however I noticed the texture of the bleach powder isn’t as a finally ground as other bleaches.

It has more of a slight crumb texture to it. But, this doesn’t cause any issues as far as I know, it’s just something I noticed. It is a white bleach! Just keep that in mind, it will make your hair orange if your going from a really dark shade.

I used it as a bleach bath and it works as expected. Overall it’s a good deal for a good amount of bleach, it’s not super dusty. I would recommend especially if you are looking for an affordable bleach.

I purchased this in conjunction with the 20 Creme Developer – and that’s all you need! I have half-and-half hair: one side is black, the other, pink. Naturally, however, I have dark brown hair so while I don’t need to do my roots as often for my darker side, I do have to regularly upkeep the pink side.

I absolutely destroyed my hair years ago with Splat and other drugstore bleaches years ago (most of those are 40 Developer!) and I am here to tell you – you don’t need higher volumes! This works just as well.

Sometimes my roots can come out pretty brassy still but it’s an easy fix with toner or a purple shampoo. This bottle and tub have lasted me months, I bought them in December and while I am running low, I have enough for another root touch up.

I spent a little under $25 for the both of these and having gotten multiple applications out of them as you make what you need (instead of box dyes where you have to make and use it all then and there) – it’s definitely worth the switch!.

This Clairol bleach lightener powder definitely gets the job done. The lift is great just tend to make the hair a little dried out. I typically like to use this product on bundles or enchanting more so than natural hair for the fact that it leaves my natural hair feeling a bit dry.

But it definitely gives great lift so that a plus if you need a budget friendly alternative to do at home.

This is the only bleach I use while doing hair at home. It works really well with all developers, you just need to select what is good with your hair. The reason I’m putting 4 stars is only because if any bit of moisture gets into the powder bleach then it will now work properly, and the smell of it is extremely strong.

Other than those 2 things it’s an amazing product and I will definitely be using it again.

I used this to lighten my roots before doing my usual top up of vibrant colour. I usually use a different brand but it costs 7 times the price of this, so i bought this based off the good reviews. It was a massive mistake.

I have been using vibrant greens and royal blues for 2 years, I have never had an issue with the colour not taking until using this bleach. Where I used this bleach, the royal blue has not taken and has turned the ends a silvery, patchy, pastel denim colour.

Which would be fine if it hadn’t created a halo on my head before drastically changing into royal blue and purple. It did lift well but the quality is just not there. It may be good for people who want to be blonde but it was incredibly brassy.

I won’t be cutting corners on price again.

bought pack and 4 40vol peroxides. i had dyed black hair which i used colourb4 on twice 3 months before bleaching. first bleach got me from mid brown to orange at ends and white at roots. 2nd bleach 4 days later got me to light orange ends.

and a third bleach 7 days later got me to banana yellow. toned with platinum jerome russell and evened it out. few little yellow bits stubbornly remain but will use my purple shampoo meantime. i would not recommend you bleach 3 times!.

Have used this many times over the past 10+ years to bleach my light to mid brown hair and have always had great results. I’ve been having regular highlights for the past year but had been itching to go full bleach blonde and lockdown seemed the perfect time to do it.

This bleach (with the 40 vol peroxide – sold separately) gets my hair to a pale yellowy white in about 20 mins! Make sure you do a strand test to figure out how long to leave on, you don’t want to overprocess your hair, unless you want it to be like chewing gum and to break off.

I use a toner immediately after to reduce the yellow tones and maintain with toning shampoo every couple of washes. And intensive conditioner once a week to keep it healthy and shiny!.

I used this bleach for years. It worked for the most part. However if a client had any chlorine or metals in her hair, this bleach would instantly get hot and swell. I understand that that is a chemical reaction, but I experienced this more and more often which lead me to believe that maybe it was partly the bleach itself.

The bleach swells, so you have to be extra careful when figuring out how close to feather down before touching the previous blonde.

Blacklight lightener system is the best on the market. They are all meant to be intermixable and are patented technology. Cool tone had bleach resistant dyes to help lift and tone in one step. The only cream lightener thatd ever lifted more than 6 levels.

This blonde powder bleach lightener lifts very well while repairing the hair at the same time allowing for a shiny finish that has minimal damage. This lightener gets my guests super bright!

Not for use if you want platinum WHITE hair however, I do like this product line. The mixing bowl it comes with is VERY small which makes it hard to effectively mix the product well, so I’d make sure you have your own bowl.

Also, I like the brush, but if you have a lot of hair, I’d buy a bigger brush. Being 40Vol you need to work fast. I have long, thick, course, platinum hair. First application, I used 2 boxes on just my roots, let sit for 2 hours, and then washed out.

I would not recommend 2hrs but I do not have a sensitive scalp, kept it fully saturated, bag over my head, kept checking it. I then had to use 2 toning masks (1 blue & 1 purple) for several hours each in my hair, & then rebleached my roots with 20vol, higher quality bleach.

After that, I “Toned it” with a purple shampoo. & Now 2 weeks later I still have to buy toner for my roots. This is my first time using this bleach kit. Normally I only have to bleach & tone once within a week & I am done.

I’m a product junkie so I thought I’d give it a shot! I will admit that to “normal people” they say my hair is white, but anyone who is platinum and picky like me, all you see is yellow LOL I would recommend this product but for VERY small outgrowth, touch ups, for blonde hair results (not white), or use prior to then coloring your hair a fun color 🙂 I also would recommend this if you are someone who has hair that lifts fast (just careful with 40vol) or whose roots are lighter.

I have BLACK hair! And I meant B L A C K!!! My hair dressers over the years, asian or not, all made comments about how black my hair is LOL I never have luck trying to lighten my hair! I’ve bleached it couple times in my life, and every single time it ended with my scalp hurts or burns or my eyes just waters because of the fume no matter how/where/what they do, I do have pretty sensitive skin in general.

But I was ok the whole process. Recently after the pandemic, I have no really color my hair for a year, I just feel like changing it up without going to salon, so I figured I’ll just try this. I have thick hair slightly longer than shoulder length so I bought two boxes, and it’s pretty good amount to cover everything.

20 minutes into it, my hair is already gotten so light I’m pleasantly surprised! But that also is kinda of a double edge sword cuz I have not done applying to my whole head which made it pretty uneven! But that’s something I kinda know would’ve happened since I’m not a pro anyway! I’m hoping in a month when I do this the second time, when it’s so light it’ll be more even since they should be almost white.

My hair is rather healthy when I started with this, I can feel my hair gotten flat and don’t have the bouncy-ness anymore after bleaching. Again, this is expected since no bleach is really good for any hair anyway.

There’s some breakage too but not too bad. I do prep my scalp with oil and protection treatment well before going in, and I suggest everybody to do so, it won’t hurt!.

It does its job. You will not have any pigment left in your hair. That said it is very harsh and not something I reccomend. I used it in high school once when I. got it in my head that I wanted pink hair.

Go to the hairdresser. I know this I have multiple in my family. I was being a teenager when I used this but I am encouraging teens and everyone else to leave it to the professionals. I had very short hair at the time so the damage went away quickly.

Golden rules. If you are going to bleach it then tone it. Leave it to the professionals they are trained ( they know the exact time to leave things on, what to do if ___ happens,etc etc)and practiced (daily ,at work, on all hair types) you do not know more than them.

You can spot a bottle job a mile a way. You do not possess the same skills as a hairdresser and what comes in those bottles is not quality. Also you can’t colour over colour. Sorry for rant. It works but is bad for you.

Don’t use it or do anything at home. Go to the salon.

I’m a hairdresser and I had a pretty dark and vibrant blue and sea green on the lengths of my hair and a level 4/5 brown dye on the roots. I used this bleach powder with a wella perfection 6% 20 volume peroxide.

I did my mids and ends first then waited 30 minutes to do my roots, I then left it on for the full recommended 50 minutes. I used a purple toner shampoo for 20 minutes and I was left with a nice blonde, I could have done with toning it again but I didn’t need to worry about that as I just needed it lightened to dye it a lighter blue.

My hair was a little dry but that’s because of previous bleaching 2 weeks before, providing you don’t do it too often you shouldn’t have the same issue. I would highly recommend this bleach over any of the high Street box brands! You won’t regret choosing this one.

The photos are taken 1 day apart in the same room and lighting so you can see the difference better however both looked lighter and ashier in daylight.

I used this to bleach my hair from dark brown to light blonde in only 2 sessions! The breakage was next to nothing and my hair was still very healthy after! I am extremely impressed and happy with this product and will definitely be buying it again in the future! 5 stars!.

This works for me! It’s a fast acting on off the scalp bleach lightener for hair that lifts your hair to the desired blonde that you are looking for. You don’t need to use heat w/ this it is gentle that it will not burn your scalp.

It does not have a horrible or chemical smell to it like a lot of other lighteners do. I like also that this powder does not “fly” all over when you pour it. T has a nice, beautiful blonde colour and the price is very affordable.

I use this product every time I highlight my hair.

This is such a great product. Some cold seasons I dye my hair maroon. To get back to light blonde is always such a process. Wella blondor makes it so much easier and less stressful. My hair typically takes two sessions to lift and then combined with a purple shampoo, my hair is blonde again.

My first attempt at bleaching my hair at home and it was an absolutely awesome experience! I was so scared my hair would fall out or I would have to do 3 processes to get platinum. I probably could have passed with 1, but I waited 2 weeks and bleached again just to be safe.

My hair was dry but barely any breakage! Used with 30v.

This stuff is sooooo good at working on red or brunette hair. I used this on my friends hair who had level 3 box dye on and it took it to level 7. I also used it on my hair that had a lot of red dyes over it and it made my hair white.

The damage from this was minimal too, the hair still swelled but that didn’t last long (or because I used it with the bond treatments too, who knows).

Love the violet lightener! Great for lifting and toning at the same time. Great to use on your deeper levels that lift brassy. The consistency is also

I love that it goes on smooth and little to no swelling while processing.

I just turned 74 and have been doing my hair for oh, 60 years but this was the first time I’ve ever used a lightener. I reviewed several videos and talked to my daughter and decided to try this one, and I’m happy I did.

Very easy to use, lightened perfectly and my hair actually looks and feels better than ever. Love this product.

This lightener is soooo good. It is gentle and always gives me the best results. It makes my hair feel soft after it’s use! This is the best!

Works fantastic on and off scalp, smells great, I use a 35 volume mix for level 1 hair and removing leftover color. Smooth creamy consistency. Wished it came in a tub!

Super

Troppp

Love Kenra. They gave fantastic products. This bleach always leaves my hair silky smooth even after a second process. This mixes super well with a whisk. Easy to get consistent. Easy to use. Uses the same developer which is fantastic! Great over all.

Recommend! I love this lightener! Pretty nice lift and doesn’t dry out! I love the consistency and results it yields.

I gave used this product professionally for the last 4 years, since the new packaging recently and the new binder bleach arrived on shelves this bleach has changed. It no longer pulls my clients hair up to the levels it has always done.

Very disappointing and has been costly to me.

This powder does what it says on the packet. I normally use a toner after bleaching. With this I didnt need the toner. I love it.

Does exactly what it says and the beauty is it doesnt expand like others bleach s. So fantastic for highlights close to the roots with no worries.
