How to bleach knots

Re: Knot Bleaching December 1 2007, 2:30 PM


Any hair bleaching kit should work.
I haven't tried Debbie's, however from the feedback here, it works well.

I use Wellite Creme Lightener by Wella and it's the best that I've ever tried (I haven't tried Debbie's).
I get it at Sallys and it's really cheap.
Mix it a little differently than the instructions.

Use 1/4 bottle of the liquid (the bottle is marked off in 1/4 bottle marks) and one packet of the powder.
Mix well, then add enough 40 vol. developer to double the amount.
You'll have a relative think, blue'ish paste.
Apply that to the knots from the underside and wait about 10 minutes.
Rinse THROUGHLY.
If the knots still need a little more, then do it again.
Note, that with any bleaching powder, even Debbie's, leaving it on too long and/or doing it too often will destroy the knots and cause a lot of shedding.

Basically you buy some Wella Wellite Creme Lightener and any 40% creme developer. Inside the Wellite box are packets of powder and a bottle of liquid. In a plastic bowl and with a nylon brush, mix 1/4 of the contents of the Wellite bottle with one sachet of the Wellite powder, then double the quantity with the 40% creme developer. The bowl now contains a thick blue gel-like paste. It's enough for four or five units, but this is very inexpensive so don't worry about having leftover mixture.

Keeping the hair out of the way, brush this thick paste on the underside of the lace. It's so thick it shouldn't seep through. Wait about 20 minutes to a half an hour (this time can vary according to how dark the hair is and what batch it's from etc). Then rise out the paste and shampoo the unit two or three times until it smells like it's free of all bleach.
