L9 Lightener Plus

I used this product to lighten my hair in order to dye it a vivid purple. My starting colour was a medium brown (as shown in picture 1). I did 2 different bleaching sessions (1 week apart) and I used 2 boxes of lightener per session. I needed to use 2 boxes due to the length of my hair, there was a little left over so if your hair is longer than mine, then 2 should still suffice. If you have shorter hair than mine, you could get away with only using 1 box. Picture 2 is the colour of my hair after the first session, picture 3 is the colour after the second session. The application process was really easy and simple, the steps were explicit and everything was labeled clearly. The bleach isn't messy and applies easily. I put a plastic shower cap over my hair to help it process, but be warned your hair/head will heat up during the bleaching process and it does feel hot to the touch. My only, minor criticisms of the lightener is that it is very strong to the point that my eyes watered a bit when I got it too close. Apart from that I absolutely adored this lightener and the process. Obviously, the hair does come out dry, but this lightener includes a purple toner to help neutralize any brassy tones and a conditioner to help repair the hair. I loved the blonde colour that resulted from the first bleaching session and the only reason that I did a second one was because I wanted the whitest base possible for applying my purple dye over. If I was staying blonde then I would have happily stopped after the first lightening process. My only word of caution should be to remember to use an old towel that you don't really care about, my trusty 'dye-towel' was transformed from a light blue to an almost white due to using it to towel dry my hair between conditioner applications. But this could probably have been avoided if I had spent longer rinsing my hair each time. I highly recommend this lightener and it is now my favourite of all hair lightening products that I have ever used. The value for money is amazing and the results are exactly what I was looking for. This is now going to be my default lightener for future.

I have been box dying my hair black for many years and fancied a warm change in time for summer.. bought two boxes (I have long hair) of the L9 lightener and I'm not going to lie I didn't expect much but I was pleasantly surprised how quickly it lifted the black and turned into an interesting copper colour..... I'd say it would take another 2 or 3 attempts at using the Lightener if you were planning to go proper blonde (and some serious toner/shampoo to tame that brass) but if you're like me and fancy a slight change then doing this the once would suffice. I'm no professional by any means so my results are patchy but hopefully shouldn't matter too much. (Try to avoid hot roots as that really affects your results) The lightener didn't damage my hair as badly as other products have done in the past. Normally I'd get a straw like feeling to my hair once dyed but this was pretty good. Because I used two boxes, I used both the hair masks and left in for 15 mins before rinsing and my hair feels quite nice.

My hair was already a blonde ombre but the warm tones needed a bleach top up so after reading a lot of reviews I ordered this. Seeing as the side of the box indicated that even brown hair would go blonde I was excited to try it. It was straight forward to use and the scent wasn't overwhelming, it did make my eyes water ever so slightly. I used the gloves and fivgered the product through strands that were already blonde and left for 40 minutes. The product really did a good job of lightening my hair and some strands came out white/platinum! I will say though that although the box claims to eliminate yellow tones you WILL need a purple mask on over this so be prepared and have one ready to use, alot of my hair was brassy but a mask sorted most of it. I think one more and it'll be all gone.

I used this to bleach the knots on my wig, since I didn’t want to have to buy a huge tub that I’d only use once. I didn’t leave it on long enough (I only did 30 minutes) so the knots came out a bit red, but that was my fault. Personally don’t think there was enough hair mask in the box this, especially considering I only used half the bottle. The bottle itself made application easy for me, but I still needed an old makeup brush to spread the bleach across my lace, and opening the bottle after shaking it caused some of the bleach to be launched out of the tip (luckily I’d laid newspaper across my desk). Also, the smell was pretty terrible, but that may just be a property of hair bleach (I’m not too experienced in this area)

I bought one, based on the product advising 2 are required for anything below chin-length hair. My hair is a bit below chin length but very thin, so I assumed it would be enough. It really wasn't and I ended up with very patchy results after applying 1 bottle. I had to buy a second box (and wait a week for delivery) to even it out. Once I had done both boxes, it looked much better. My hair is naturally very dark and it really did lighten my hair a lot with the 2 applications. It is more orange than I would like if I were trying to go blonde, but I am going to put another colour over it now it is lightened, so it is fine for that. I have added pics of my hair before and after the 2 boxes

This product works so well! My sister is trying to achieve an ombré/balayage effect but all the shop hair lighteners/strippers aren’t very good. But this one from amazon is amazing! It doesn’t leave the hair damaged like bleach. It lightens the hair from a dark brown to a rich orange/ginger colour. Which is AMAZING to then apply blonde over. My sister has long, thick hair (past her shoulders) and we use two boxes for ombré so we ensure to cover every last strand. If your hair is long and thick, I would recommend two boxes. Also, I would recommend to spend time, maybe get help from someone else, and take thin layers of hair to cover it. This product can leave your hair like tiger stripes if you don’t coat every thin strand. But overall, LOVE THIS! ⭐️

This product is AMAZING. Ive completely ruined my hair over the years from excessive bleaching and colouring, to the point where my hair would turn to "noodle" like consistency every time i bleached it. It would fall out every time i washed it in clumps, and would break off even sometimes. I was sceptical about bleaching it as it NEVER works for me, but after reading reviews i decided to try it. My hair has taken two bleaches in less than a week (deep conditioned with banana hair mask in between). And the condition is AMAZING. Its soft and fluffy, ive lost no hair. My hair before was a medium brown colour, with bits of purple and blue from previous henna dyes. Please note I have used a toner afterwards as it went slightly yellow (only because of all the previous colour). If you're sceptical about buying, dont be! Its the best bleach ive ever used & my hair is silky smooth!

So this works quite well if you want to use it as a base to dye your dark hair a vibrant colour. I have dark brown hair and wanted to dye my hair a vibrant colour. I wanted something easy to use that would lighten my hair so I could get as much of the colour as I could. I applied this by following the instructions, which are really easy to understand, left it the recommended time and turned into Tormund Giantsbane. Yes, I also used it on my beard which isn't something I'd recommend as the fumes of the bleach then have easy access to your olfactory system! Overall I was very happy with the results, which garnered many laughs from my family. Needless to say I didn't leave the house in this state. You can see the results this had when I then subsequently dyed my hair and became the Grinch!
