Will Vinager remove iron/rust from human hair?

Question

Hi, I asked another question and had a question for more info. Will vinager remove the staining that is already in your hair? How many times do you have to do it? If done once a week will it keep the red out? Just rinse the vinager solution in your hair, let it sit for how long??
Thank you

How do you use the lemon juice to remove, I squirted some on my hair out of the little yellow lemon and let sit for a loonngg time, nothing happened........no difference at all.........anyone????

Answer 1

No, Vinegar won't work. Clarifying shampoos help (like Aveda Hair Detoxifier) but it's tricky when you are still washing your hair in the same water. Can you get city water shipped in? To remove it really well, run perm solution thru your hair. Best to go to a salon, but if you do it at home, saturate your hair, the iron will turn a purple color and will rinse away. It won't be damaging, it works very quickly.

Answer 2

Try a good claifying shampoo and conditioner. I live in the country so I know exactly what your talking about the build up from hard water. I used to go to a place called sallys beauty supply and buy a small pachage of stuff. It was purple called crystal something... grrr cant remember the name. it was only a dollar or so. Some deep conditioners help too if you leave them on all night. Oh one of them is called cholesterol cream. I never heard of vinegar for it.

Answer 3

No it will not! It removes other minerals and ATTRACTS iron (rust), which will turn the hair a reddish colour. If you want to remove iron use Lemon Juice.

Answer 4
