As far as I know, bleach is essentially made of peroxide + developer. But is peroxide alone enough to lighten hair significantly?
Sun In or other things like that have about 3% peroxide, which is the equivalent of 10vol, and they lighten over time.
But if someone were to use, for example, 30vol or higher peroxide on hair, would it lighten the hair a lot, in just one session?
Or would it be better and easier to use bleach? Besides, which one is more damaging?
I think peroxide alone should lighten less than the same peroxide mixed with developer, but what I don't have any idea of is if it is more damaging to use, for example, 20vol peroxide + developer or 30vol peroxide (or even 40vol) alone.
If I wanted to lighten my hair to light brown, what would be the easiest and safest way to do it? (assuming I use coconut oil for protection prior to the lightening)
I hope to get responses from the nice hairstylists in this forum
Thank you a lot!
ETA: I just thought this should go in the Conventional Products and Accessories board. Mods, if you agree, could you move the thread?
Thanks!
