Q&A(21)

Q: Can you use this product to lighten arm hair?

submitted by Shopper100 - 4 years ago
  • A: Hi there! Thanks for reaching out about this. While we don't recommend spraying this directly on skin, if you'd like to use it on body hair, we recommend patch-testing first to ensure that your skin doesn't become irritated. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to reach out to us! xo, SB

Q: Does this work on hair that has been dyed a medium ash blonde color?

submitted by jjustbecause - 5 years ago
  • A: Absolutely not! The main ingredient is hydrogen peroxide.

    submitted byAllie - 5 years ago
  • A: Hey there! Yes, it's perfect for that :) It's also highly recommended that you use our Hair Lightener with our Tone Enhancer or a purple shampoo of some sort, in order to neutralize that brassiness. If you have any further questions on how to proceed, feel free to reach out to us or your stylist for more info. Hope this helps <3 xo, SB

Q: Does this work on natural gingers, and what will happen, will it be lighter orange or blonde

submitted by Barbra Skert Skert - 3 months ago
  • A: Yes! What makes this product work is a lightening blend of ingredients including hydrogen peroxide, which oxidizes the melanin in the hair causing it to lighten. This product is intended to be used slowly and gradually and should be used on dry or damp hair directly to areas you want affected. We would recommend that you use the product no more than 2 or max 3 times a week in order to avoid hair breakage and damage. We just recommend that you test it on an inconspicuous piece of hair first to make sure you like it :) With love, SB
