Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
Yesterday I went to my normal stylist. I had blonde highlights on light brown hair for 4 years, so it was time for a change. Very excited for the change I talked to the stylist telling her I wanted brown lowlights with just the slightest hint of red. Well... she decided to do all over color: RED. After my mom and I told her we hated it (I have pale skin so it looked horrid on me)she put on top of that a medium brown. It reduced the red a little but not as much as we wanted. Today we both knew I could not keep it. Upon research we came across Color Oops...who ever thought of this is a GENIUS!!!! The smell wasn't unbearable, it was fast, easy...totally worth every penny!! If you hate a bad hair color job- Get this product- you will not be sorry!! Now, it made my hair look like a dark strawberry blonde, I love it :)
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
yes it does smell a little ,but no more than when you color your hair. I had some serious red overtones from years of coloring and wanted to get back to being a brunette.Even though the product states its for darker colors I thought
I'd give it a try. I'm glad I did. It worked great,but I did as suggested and did some deep conditioning before using this product then again afterwards. I waited till the next day then re-colored closer to my natural color. I again did some deep conditioning afterwards. It really stripped the overtones out. I was pleasantly surprised and will definitely use this product again. The instructions aren't difficult at all.

Going stir-crazy on vacation from school, I used a semi-permanent dye to darken my medium-brown hair. Because I was a little over-eager, I ended up with JET BLACK (Almost blue!!) hair! It did not look natural. I looked like I was wearing a wig. It was awful.
This product is a hair saver! It smells really bad and burns a little bit but my hair is restored to almost its natural color. It is a little darker but I like it. Use this if you went black and you regret the decision!
Note: I used it about 24 hours after I dyed.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
Ok, so I was VERY desperate. I'm 15 years old and I had natural Blonde hair and my mom decided one day to have me go to the salon and get the underneath part of my hair dyed Magenta. It was really cute, and I liked it a lot, because I love standing out. And I was excited because it was the first time I have ever dyed my hair. But, my basketball coach didn't. So I figured I would just let the color fade. But, unlike the first two times I dyed it pink, what was SUPPOSED to be a two week dye, turned into two months. I was getting very desperate because I don't really like the way the bench feels. ha. So, I looked on the internet for ANYTHING I could find and I came across Color Oops. Normally I don't trust reviews but I was up for anything at this point. So about an hour ago I went to walgreens and bought it. Although it said not to use one pinks and only for recent dyes, I figured I would try and I am very glad I did. The smell isn't strong and doesn't smell that bad. I did have to use it twice but it was worth it. But be very careful because it did irritate my skin a little. Anyways, I'm sure my coach will be happy to see me tomorrow at 8am:D

I found this product on this website and was so excited I could finally fix thedreadful mistake I had made by dying my hair. My hair is normally a medium reddish brown. I wanted to make my hair a little bit of a deeper red and it didnt turn out quite as I had expected. It was horribly dark and almost purple looking. I used this product and it ended up turning my hair a bright strawberry blonde bozo color. I was absolutley horrified. =[
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
My hair is naturally a dark brown and of course I wanted something I didn't have which was a beautiful blonde. After many months of heavy highlights and much breakage due to the bleach i was sick of the roots and maintenance so I decided I wanted my brown back. Well, 2 nights ago i went to the store and picked up some dark brown hair dye...of course it turned me pretty much jet black, almost dark purplish. I thought I could live with it until it faded but tonight decided to look into things on the internet, that is when I found Color oops! It stripped the black out and at first left me orangie and sordof pinkinsh so I had to add more color. I used Natural Instincts golden brown (something a bit ighter that what I wanted) but since my hair was so pourous from the damage it ended up turning m y hair to the color I desired, thankgod! I will NEVER do that again!! It is pretty much my natural color with some nice colors throughout. Thankyou Color OOPS!!!!!!!

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I dyed my hair red after 2 years of nothing and I immediately regretted it. For a month and a half I've been using a stripping shampoo and trying to redye over it, but to no avail. The red persevered. Until now, mwahahaha. I used the Color Oops, not really expecting much, since I had dyed over the color a couple of times and it said it would only work on the first layer of color. But it worked on ALL of the colors, yay! I am a blonde again and I am so happy! No more red for me ever again! (or if i go crazy again, I know what to do)
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
On Christmas Eve at 4.00 I thought it would be fun to change from my strawberry blonde to a mid brown (which is my natural color) BIG mistake. The mid brown reacted with my lightened porous hair and went a dark Goth "Elvis" shade. Of course all the stores had closed to I suffered the ridicule of Christmas parties (thank goodness for Santa hats!)having time on Christmas day I researched online and came across all these reviews for Color Opps. 8.30 this morning I was outside the pharmacy with my money in hand. By 10.30 I was normal again! Thank you Thank you. It was either this or the clippers were coming out for a buzz cut! The product was easy to use, I rinsed and rinsed and finished with an intense conditioning masque. My hair is soft and glossy, a little darker than before but I like it. I don't notice the smell to be any worse than when I dye and after three shampoos and intense conditioner there is barely a residual odor. Next time I color I'll have a box standing by and would highly recommend to all "accidental Goths".
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I had dark blonde hair with roots! So I purchased a lt. brown color...my hair turned black!! I hated it! So I purchased this, and it lightened my hair just enough. I would only recommend this if you dyed your hair a really dark color, and your natural color is light.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I am in disbelief over this product. I had light blonde hair until 3 months ago when some BAD hairdresser made me a bruntte. I tried to fix it myself twice but the color was really sticking. This was at a last resort before I went and paid the big bucks at a salon. Needless to say I am a blonde again!! I may have left it on abit to long because I think I am a shade lighter than before, but who cares...I got my hair back!! My hair is not nearly as damaged as I thought it would be. After some deep conditioning I think It will be fine. Plus, I didn't even have to color it again after!! I may just return that! This stuff is wonderful!!
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I HAD LIGHT BROWN HAIR WITH VERY INTENSE BLONDE HIGHLIGHTS AND WANTED A CHANGE SO I DYED MY HAIR DARK BROWN. MY LIGHT HAIR DIDN'T TAKE ON ENOUGH OF THE BROWN SO I DYED IT AGAIN THE SAME DAY. IT TURNED OUT SO DARK THAT I LOOKED LIKE MARILYN MANSON! I FREAKED! A CO-WORKER,(A FELLOW HAIR OBSESSED PERSON),TOLD ME ABOUT COLOR OOPS SO I GOT SOME. I USED THIS PRODUCT 5 DAYS AFTER I COLORED MY HAIR. I WAS AMAZED! ONE BOX WORKED ON ALL OF MY VERY THICK,MID-BACK LENGTHED HAIR. IT IS NOT LIKE IT WAS BEFORE I COLORED BUT INSTEAD IT IS THIS REALLY BEAUTIFUL SUBTLE REDDISH AUBURN COLOR. I LOVE IT! INSTEAD OF USING THE EXTRA BOX I PURCHASED (JUST IN CASE I NEEDED 2 BOXES) I AM GOING TO RETURN IT. I WAS JUST AS SCARED AS ANYONE ELSE TO USE AN UNFAMILIAR PRODUCT BUT I AM SO GLAD I TOOK A CHANCE! IT TOTALLY WORKED OUT! AND YEA IT SMELLS BAD BUT WHO CARES IF U LOOK GOOD AFTERWARDS!

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I've dyed my black three times just to keep up with the roots that came in and eventually I became weary of having to go through this process every two months. I came to the conclusion that I wanted a change before leaving for our Christmas vacation but couldn't make an appointment in time. I've tried stripping a dark color long ago but it only made my roots this awful yellow, the middle orange, and the tips bright red...which made it horrible to dye evenly. It looked like my head was raining fire. Plus, my hair was dry afterwards. I'd decided to try this product and not only did it live up to it's standards, I'm not even sure if I really want to re-dye my hair. It turned out a really pretty deep red/brown. My hair smells little like rotten eggs (even after two sessions of shampoo and three rinses) but I really don't mind. It's still soft and the black is gone!

I have naturally blonde hair, then dyed it black. I used this product, and now my hair is orange.
Wonderful.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
This product was great. Last time my hair was colored the girl went way to dark for me. It was getting darker with each touch up. I had to get back to lighter brown. Now, this oops product will kind of take your hair to an orangy color(at least for me) but when I colored over it with a medium brown it turned out really good. Several yrs. ago I used the other product by L'Oreal that stripped my hair and it did not work too good. But this OOPS was gentle although it smelled. It worked that's all I know and I'm satisfied with it - not harsh on the hair. I would recommend but just don't panic if you get an orangy color at first.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I read so many great reviews on this product, and ended up being very dissapointed. I had wanted to dye my hair dark brown from my light natural brown color, and it ended up looking almost black! So I got Color Oops and tried it. It smelled horrible and the smell stayed in my hair for the next few days, no matter how much I rinsed.
I thought it worked after I got out of the shower and blow-dried my hair, because the color was almost back to it's original shade but had a tint of red it in for some reason. The next day, it seemed to be almost the same color as when I dyed it, but I thought maybe I was going crazy. 2 days later, my hair color was back to the poopey black brown color I had accidently dyed it in the first place.
I read a few more articles that rated this product as a 1, and a few of them had the same problem. Most people write their reviews right after they wash the Color Oops out, but if you wait, the color seems to turn back to the dreaded color you didn't want.
I was VERY dissapointed!
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
Color oops totally saved my hair. I have blonde hair and decided to go a little darker for the fall. Big mistake! The "light brown" hair dye turned my hair almost black! I had herd about this product from a friend and decided to give it a try because I looked horriable. After I used it I was back to the nice blonde color that I had before. Thank you whoever makes color oops. Your a life saver!!!

This is the best new thing in your haircolor wardrobe! Any time you change to a different brand/color, and things go so badly that you don't want to leave the house...or color "Grabs," that one area.....it's Color Oops, to the rescue!!! I wouldn't color my hair without this product in my bathroom cupboard.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
This product really works. My roots were showing and I had wanted to color my hair so that it matches my natural hair color, which is dark brown (almost black). Loreal has a soft black hair color which looked dark brown on the box, when I had used it, my hair turned pitch black instead. I was told that I had to use bleach to strip down my hair, however I read the product reviews for Color Oops and found a lot of positive feedback. After using this product, my hair turned dark brown from pitch black, which is what I originally wanted. The product was very easy to use and the smell is not bad at all. It does not smell any worse than applying hair color.
(I left it on my hair for 15 mins, instead of 20 and had tested a strand of hair prior to using it.)
Since my natural hair is dark and I had used dark color before, I had no need to recolor my hair after using Color Oops.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I recently decided it was a good idea to dye my hair bright red. Althought it was a pretty color it wasn't appropreiate for my current job. So in an attempt to fix this problem I created I dyed my hair the next day dark brown. It turned out PURPLE! I was so disappointed. I actually had to go to work like that for a few days. I realized soon that i need to fix it and tryed several hair salons. They were going to charge me 120$. So I found this product and used it right away. It turned my hair back to my natural medium brown with alittle hint of auburn red. Which is fine bc its just a color shade over from my natural color. I was so happy. I didn't evven have to redye it after ward bc I loved the color it came out as. I would definitly recommend this product and I'm sure I will be using it again in the future. Bc I am alittle wild with my hair color choices :)

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I have naturally redish dark blonde hair, and I decided to dye my hair black. I would have loved the color, but as I have found out, my red-ish darkblonde hair does not let me dye my hair black verry well because you can see it through the black dye. My friend recommended it to me, she said that it was fantastic because she always dyes her hair all kinds of colors. I should not have listened to her. I bought two boxes of this product, just in case. I followed all of the directions, thinking it would work. I stepped out of the shower and blow dried my hair. It looked horrible. It did not get much of the black out, except for some baseball size light brown SPOTS...
and you were still able to see the red. Thinking that it cant get any worse, i tried it with the other box, and it didnt get worse, it just didnt change at all. Later I found out from my friend at school that the back of my head was orange/brown. Emo kids kept on complimenting my hair, every one else just starred at my hair. I had to redye it black 3 times in a row so that the supposed permanent color would stay on my hair...how nice....

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
This has been a crazy weekend for me and my hair. I've had every imaginable color out there. Started with black and the origional plan was to use color oops to rid the black, bleach and tone my hair to a nice blonde. However, i was pleasantly surprised that after using color oops my hair was a nice healthy reddish brown. i loved it more than my intended hair color so i returned the blonde shades and bought a red instead. I hadn't had red hair for the longest time i could remember so i was excited to try something a lot of ppl hadnt seen me with. Unfortunately, the red i bought turned my roots bright auburn and the rest of my hair black..AGAIN! i broke down crying knowing i'd had this beautiful red color and somehow ruined it. i still dunno how that red haircolor turned my hair black again but it was out to buy some more color oops. two boxes later again and i had an even prettier auburn. i learned my lesson the first time and have decided not to mess with it for now. its lighter (almost blonde) at the roots and some pretty browns and reds all over. love it. i was really shocked at how well this stuff worked and believe it or not, it took me to a desired color alone without anymore haircolor. the biggest downside is that it smells horrible and will follow you around for days but overall color oops is easy to use, gentle and colorless so no mess. it did the job for me!!

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I bought this today after reading all the wonderful reviews on it, but they LIE! I had about an inch and a half of roots showing (light brown) and the rest was dyed black. Work was hassling me about having two-toned hair (I'm military) and demanded that I strip it or cut it off. I tried this product and now have about 4 different tones of RED. (EVEN MY ROOTS TURNED RED WHERE THERE WAS NO DYE.) I left it on for the required 20 minutes and washed twice and conditioned as the box said and this is a DISASTER. I don't even know if I can dye this to a light brown with how much red there is, I will most likely be forced to bleach it and wait a few weeks to try to dye it to a light brown.
I DO NOT recommend this product

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I'm naturally blonde. I was light blonde when I was a kid, but as I grew older my hair turned darker and kinda mousey (I'm 24). I used to occasionally use Revlon Colorsilk when I wanted a slight change, since it usually gives highlights instead of drastic overall color changes (maybe because it's cheap, but I love it). This time I tried Garnier Nutrisse 100% color in a strawberry blonde color, and GOOD LORD it turned bright auburn red. Nothing blonde about it.
Color oops took the red out and brought me back to my original haircolor, when I was a kid! It's not entirely dry yet, but I can tell that it's lighter than before I ever colored it, but natural looking. There's no red left except in two tiny spots where I didn't put enough product(hahaha!), but the rest of the results are perfect. I ran a comb through it while it was developing to make coverage more even.
As for the smell.... yeah, there's a smell. The second ingrediant is "hydrosulfite": the sulfite part contains one sulphur molecule to every three oxygen...... SO that's why people complain of it smelling like all sorts of different things. The sulphur. No amount of fragrance they added covered up that smell. And no amount of fancy pants shampoos will initially cover it up either.
Use it if you need to. It works. DO NOT use it before a hot date, or around anyone who doesn't have a sense of humor. I'm assuming, like all haircolor products, the smell will fade in a day or two. Here's hoping!

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
okay, i died my hair jet black about 3 months ago, i figured after time that the color would eventually fade back to natural brown color. After months went by and trying to dye my hair over and over, nothing worked, and i gave up! I called many salons and they all averaged a price of around [$] to strip my hair! then i saw this color oops stuff, and i honestly figured that it wasnt going to work, because nothing else did. So i get it and do a strand test, put it in my hair for 20 mins and it worked!!!!!! I got out of the shower and towel dryed my hair and it was a reddish brown color!!!!!!and no damage to my hair whatsoever. thank goodness for this stuff! Saved me tons of money! try it!
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
It worked on my hair and I was amazed. Normally I don't believe any comments written about a product because they never seem to live up to expectaions. I had colored my hair a dark red about 3 or 4 times, re-layering the color, and it took it all out. To the point that my hair is a lighter blonde.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
okay, so i am a ballet performance major at an arts college. one week i decided to get my hair dyed a light blond (up form medium brown). my hair got bleached and colored, and for a few days, it looked good. as the color started to settle, though, it turned an almost neon yellow! my pointe instructor gave me the most disapproving look i've ever seen, so i decided to try and find a way to get my old color back. this stuff didn't seem to make a difference at first, as the bleached hair and the color were virtually the same, but after using this stuff and applying a medium brown hair colorant, i am looking like my old self again. it really does work on lightened hair, so don't be a skeptic!
The only reason I only give this product a 4 of 5 is that the online instructions for the product were different from the ones that came in the box. The online ones were more descriptive, particularly about conditioner and rinse times.

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
Okay so I have been coloring my hair since I was 16 and I have lost sight of my natural hair color. I bought this 2 days ago because I have gone from blonde to a burgandy blackish brown. I was sick of compounding salon and box color. So I put this on and washed it 4 times as instructed and holy cow! It took my hair back to a brassy blonde on top and the bottom was blondish brown. I was so happy! So I then put on a natural dark brown box colour and I only waited 5 minutes then I rinsed and conditioned like mad and I have a Beautiful natural looking dark brown hair color! This product is a miracle worker!!! My hair was NOT brittle, if you dye your hair afterwards leave the box color conditioner on your hair for 10minutes and you will NOT have brittle hair.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
Being out of money and bored I grabbed a box of color off the shelf and stepped into a hair nightmare. My hair went from dark blond to red to jet black with the texture of straw. In desperation I decided to try Color Oops, I really had no faith that it would work but other options involved lots of money and time. I followed the directions, prayed and it worked!!! I am amazed and extremely happy with my new color (a light brown/dark blond.) I don't know if it was the product,the prayer or both but I am thrilled and recommend trying it if you have a similar situation.

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I did same as most went dark for boredom and a change...well CHANGE I got! I am naturally some color blonde!?!? I was strawberry blonde as a child and it was so pretty..BUT ya know when we get older our lite blonde hair tends to darken somewhat...THIS PRODUCT GAVE ME BACK MY strawberry blonde hair...i am almost speechless it's like lookin at my childhood photo!! HAVE I been dying my hair that long...I thought!! Also I have VERY FINE hair and so I was VERY HESITANT and believe me I did PLENTY of research before this decision. I was about to give up and face the idea that there was ABSOLUTELY NOTHING I could do and I would just have to wait forever for it to grow out and being miserable in the meantime. ALSO PLEASE people remember this will only work if you went DARKER than your natural color...as I see some people putting this product down BUT failing to mention their color situation!!! HOPE YOU ALL RESTORE YOUR NATURAL COLOR and then LEAVE it ALONE :) Even though you have the option to re-color after the fix ;D I AM DONE experimenting!! **I paid [$] but you can get it cheaper..NOT a bad price to pay when it TRUELY works and compared to $120.00 or more in salon (did that before).**It does smell bad like they say "sulfur" like...BUT who the hell cares,when that will go away!!**Walgreens was closed & I got it at [...]...But it's couple dollars cheaper at [...]*********BOTTOM line it WORKS GREAT**********
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
So, I have been using Sun-In in my hair for over 3 years. My hair looked bleach blond..it was beautiful. It went with my skin tone and everything. I forgot what I looked like with my natural hair color, so i got pictures out, and decided to dye my hair back to its natural hair color. Well, once a professional dyed it...i hated it. It was such a big change. I literally cried over my hair!! Every time I looked in the mirror I looked so different. I wanted my beautiful bleach blond hair back. I was gonna just wait until the dye washed out..but a professional hair stylist said the dye might stain my hair..so i was so ticked off..and scared. I did research online and I bought color oops. I was scared to try it because the reviews said it smelled horrible and sometimes it didn't turn back to the hair color before. I used color oops and it didn't smell as bad as i thought it would smell at all. It turned my hair back to its blond!!! Its still a tad darker than the bleach blond..but its still bright blond and i LOVE IT! i am so happy to be back to normal looking. My hair isnt damaged at ALL ..its silky smooth.
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I am greatly disappointed after reading so many great reviews on this product. I did a swatch test before to make sure it didn't damage my hair and find out how long to leave it on and to see how much of the color it would take out. However, after applying it to the rest of my hair it didn't take out any of the color and it made it horribly dry and brittle (even after deep-conditioning it). I am unsure of what the difference in use was because I did the same for both. I would not use it again (if the case were I needed a second application) because of all the damage it caused to my hair.

Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I went to a salon to get my hair dyed to dark brown. I had medium brown hair with faded highlights before. After she was done my hair turned out JET BLACK. I was rather shocked and dissappointed!! She told me it would fade after a few washes. After 1-2 washes, I noticed little fading. I was desperate and went out to buy Color Oops after reading all the reviews here and from a friend. I did a strand test and it changed colors in 10 mins so I began to put it all over my head. After about 18-20 mins I saw a really light brassy brown color. The black was GONE!!! =)
I was really happy...now my hair looks auburn/orangey/reddish brown, which is not so bad looking! I'm gonna tone it after a week or so. BUY this product if you HATE how gothic your hair looks and want to go back to a lighter shade of brown. Highly recommend this! Not damaging at all, just use conditioner! Follow directions carefully too!

I got my hair colored to cover some natural lightening by the sun-I have medium to dark brown hair-well i went to my stylist and she left the color on too long and my hair came out jet black! I was horrified-I felt like Morticia from the Adams family! I was mad so I didnt go back to the stylist who messed it up-so I figured I would just be stuck with it-well I did some searching on the internet and found color oops-i read all the reviews and I purchased it the next day and did the strand test-looked good so I did it and my hair came out great! It is brown again and a very pretty brown-much what I was wanting it to look like when I went to the hairdresser. I think it is the best color I have ever had on my hair actually! The product is easy to use and the smell wasnt as bad as people posted-just be sure to throw it out in an outside trash can when done:) Very pleased with this product-would recommend!
Comments about Color Oops Color Oops Extra Strength Hair Color Remover 1ea.:
I decided to go darker for the fall and winter season. I chose a medium brown. I colored my hair last night and i was horrified. It was jet black with purple highlights. This morning, I called Clairol and was told that there is no way of lightening it at home and that I needed to go to a salon. Well, I started searching the web and came across this product. I went to Rite Aid after reading almost all of the reviews. I came home and did a patch test. I left it on for the full 20 mins that it tells you to. It removed all the black but left it a little lighter than I wanted. I decided to go ahead and do all of my hair. I just kept checking and when I noticed it was the color i wanted, I began the rinse process. It is a wonderful product. I am back to the color I was last night and I'm not so sure that I want to take the chance and go darker. I highly reccommend you use Color Oops.

I started with medium brown hair with golden and reddish highlights. I wanted to go dark brown for the winter and used Natural Insticts Medium brown. It was fine at first but as the weeks went by it started to look dull and boring and flat. I just thought it looked sorta cheap. I used Color Oops after about 2 weeks. My hair is totally back to normal, my hightlights and everything. Didn't seem too harsh, my hair feels pretty good. Pretty miraculous.

I dye my hair pretty regularly, but it seems like my hair always fades to a redish brown color. I decided (since the weather was getting cooler) to go for a deeper brown on my WAIST LENGTH hair. Well, it turned Jet Black!!! It was horrifying. I tried the dish soap, head and shoulders, and even laundry detergent tricks to try to fade it - to no avail. I stopped at a hair salon yesterday to ask about corrective color. The stylist looked at me and said "I can probably do something, but it's going to be expensive...at least $200 depending on how much time it takes". $200 for a [$] mistake!! I made the appointment, but started to do some more research when I got home. I found Color Oops an read over 100 reviews. I was so nervous, I kept thinking that I was going to have to cut my hair off. Well I picked up two boxes of Color Oops and this stuff is a MIRACLE WORKER!!! Left it on for 12 minutes and ALL the black was gone - and I saved [$]! Yeah, it smells a little bad but I could care less. This stuff is great!

After trying to get "just the right color" on my boyfriend's hair we realized that we were way off target. Three boxes of dye later, we decided to try to start over. This product took it all off.
I was shocked with how good it worked. Highly recommended

OMG this stuff saved me. I tried to color my light blond hair a medium brown. It turned out a horrid color of dull black at the roots with gray strands. It was awful. Looked like a cheap ugly halloween witches wig. I rushed to the store and bought color oops. It corrected my hair back to its original color. Thank God!!!!

I have colored my hair for years, you name the color, I've done it once. I have had my hair dine both professionally and I have done it myself when funds were tight. Well, my natural color is a light golden brown. I had been dying it a shade or so darker, but I decided I wanted to go for a change and dye it a deep, rich BROWN - - instead, it came out BLACK!!! I was mortified! I had NEVER had this happen and didn't know what to do next! SO, I searched around online for some help. I shampooed over and over again to no avail, and I dried it and thought to myself, "maybe this isn't so bad.... maybe you an make this work!" But NO! It was BAD!!! SO then I came upon this page and thought, "Here we go!" SO I ran out to my local Walgreens and picked it up and IT WORKED GREAT!!!! It took all the black right out and my hair turned out just fine! It is still a shade or so darker than my natural color now with some auburn, but I was SO PLEASED!!!! USE THIS, IT WORKS!!!

I was really nervous about trying this product, (the whole "unknown" factor!) but I'm so glad I did. I colored my hair about a month ago, thinking I wanted a shade darker and it ended up looking more gothic than dark and sexy. I lived with it for a while and considered going to my stylist for color correction. But it can be such an expensive process that I did some research on home remedies and found Color Oops. The color I ended up with was a just slightly brassy auburn, but my hair usually does that anyway. My recommendations are to definitely do the strand test and then throw everything out outside when you're done, because it will stink up your bathroom if you leave it in the trash! :) Good luck!

I purchased a total of four boxes of this product and it did not work. I spent [$] for nothing. I needed four boxes because of the thickness for my hair it takes two boxes and one time. When I spoke to the company yesterday they told me to purchase two more boxes because it may take more then once to remove the color. It didn't work. I contacted the company for a refund but I never heard anything back. I tried to go from black to my natural color which is light brown. This product sucks and do not recommend you use it.

I HAD MY HAIR COLORED AND IT TURNED OUT TO BE A GOTH BLACK...YUCK!! I HATED IT! I READ ABOUT THE COLOR OPS ONLINE AND SAW IT HAD GREAT REVIEWS. AND IT IS GREAT...AFTER 20 MINUTES...MY HAIR WAS AS NORMAL AS NORMAL CAN BE AFTER COLORING IT. MIGHT BE A SHADE LIGHTER THEN MY NORMAL COLOR.....BUT AT LEAST I CAN GO OUT INTO THE PUBLIC AGAIN!! WHOEVER MADE THIS PRODUCT SHOULD WIN AN AWARD!
