I used Effasol last night on a friend's hair, to remove several layers of dye and lighten the roots befre dying a very bright red. (a mix of SXF Ruby Red and Nuclear Red.) As a test, we bleached some strips, and used Effasol on the rest of her hair, box mixed with the same 20vol creme deleoper. The bleached strips were pretty damaged, an came up bright orange. The Effasol-covered portions, by comparison, were -much- less damaged, and came up a lvery light reddish-auburn on the ends, where it has been dyed several layers of drugstore red and then black. The dye also took better on the Effasol-d portions.
I'm sorry you've has such poor experience with Effasol, but my own has been quite positive. We also appear ot have quite differnt opinions on the effects of delveloper, but i would still not reccomend using it on the hair without something else to mix it with. (I think we've all had the out-of-bleach, full bottle of Pure White "developer moment.")
For the record: I don't appreciate being called an idiot, and if you have a like opinion of my intelligence in the future, please find a more polite or private way to express it. There really isn't any need for this sort of behavior in someone else's journal comments, and i will neither condone it nor participate in it any further.
