When I finished this video I had expected it to have hundreds of thousands if not millions of views. Such quality in content creation, well done

The scientific reason why chamomile tea only worked with hydrogen peroxide is because the active compound (quercetin) is a weak oxidation catalyst (facilitate oxidation reaction between the hydrogen peroxide solution and the melanin) and a photosensitizer similar to retinol (this makes the hair/skin more sensitive to the oxidative properties of the sun hence why dermatologists recommend to apply sunscreen when using retinol or other skincare products that are photosensitizers). In short, this can theoretically explain why the camomile and the hydrogen peroxide despite diluting it did not lessen its effectiveness as it may have been an equilibrium point where the slowed reaction from the lower concentration of hydrogen peroxide was counteracted by the higher concentration of catalyst which sped up the reaction.

When I clicked on this vid, I did not expect labels with Polish words. ^^ Very glad to see calm, interesting and well presented content from Polish creator. ❤

This video ticks so many boxes for me!! Such an honest and thorough experiment, I really appreciate the effort you put into this! ❤

0:58 chamomile ❌
1:16 apple cider vinegar❌
1:34 6% of hydrogen peroxide (works best)
1:46 (works best)
2:04 beer (meh, it does work but it’s reallyyy gentle)
2:15 lemon water (a bit difference)
2:23 honey and water 2:41 + cinnamon ❌

This was very helpful. I found that the honey+cinnamon+water mixture works really good to pull out semi-permanent hair dye and for me, it was even successful on permanent dye! I am impressed how well the hydrogen peroxide and chamomille tea worked. So cool !!

@nelib.6263 3 years ago

Lemon juice and sun light is the key 👌🏼

Thank you so much for this! You have answered that age old question “Can lemons lighten hair without the sun?” Now I know the answer is yes! Thanks again, this is the most helpful lightening video I’ve ever seen!!! 💖

@pinokosthewife 2 years ago (edited)

Chamomile worked for me, but it requires sun! Lemon and chamomile both help the natural lightening sunlight gives, but basically speed up the process. ^^ Also, this video was very sweet and peaceful to watch.

I love your hydrogen peroxide 3% with essential oils recipe! I tried it earlier tonight and it worked like a charm! It didnt reverse any of my hard work of strenthening my hair this last year! Vinegar is best for cleansing and strengthening. Yes i used my recipe right after lightening my hair. I want to share this with you and others because i know it really works!

Add a teaspoon of coconut oil to 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar and 1/2 cup hot water. Shake up in a bottle til well mixed. Saturate you hair from scalp to ends and massage the scalp with fingertips very well.( Do not scratch scalp) Wrap hair in hot wet towel for about 30 mins....rinse! I usually dont shampoo afterwards because i do this at night.
Then->
I Shampoo and condition with shower routine the next morning before work.

This is amazing for your hair! If your hair is thinning, this method can reverse it! It kills a bacteria (that everyone has) while making the hair thicker and stronger..opens those closing hair pores. That bacteria thins hair and eventually is too weak to push thru the pore opening and the root evenually dies...causing baldness. If you or anyone you know is experiencing these hair issues, give this recipe a try! It worked wonders for me and my hubby! We treat our hair and scalp once a week. After a year, my hair is full of strength and now growing past my shoulders...that hasn't been possible for 15 yrs! Hubby has not lost anymore hair...it looks fuller...but the dead roots stay dead unfortunately.
I thought this might help someone else like it helped us!
Good hair wishes to all!

With any Chemical Induced Lightning these are ends of hair samples, so be careful when getting close to the scalp where the Hair grows from you can easily damage this sensitive area (drying & causing rashes or scalp flaking similar to dandruff) you may even cause hair breakage.
All the Natural Elements are a lot more milder & safer near the scalp.🇦🇺
