Answer #HR021 - Facial Hair Removal
Only if you shave it. If you pull it out by the
root, such as by tweezing or waxing, and do it often, it will actually grow back finer.
You want to remove it at the root, not cut the hair.

I had very heavy coarse hair on my chin (like a
man's beard). I went and had lazer done and no hair--just one or two the odd time. Best
thing I ever did. - Debbie, Winnipeg

Answer #HR022 - Removing temporary hair color
My daughter also used a hair color that made her
hair really dark. I suggested she use Dawn dishwashing liquid and it did remove alot
of the color and lighten it up. This was a lot easier that doing the process the coloring
company suggested.

Question #HR023 - Green Hair - Pool Chlorine
My hair is blonde and I was told that it can
turn green if I swim in a chlorinated water. If it DOES turn green, how can I fix it? Is

Answer #HR023 - Green Hair - Pool Chlorine
The greening of hair from swimming pools is not
caused by chlorine. It's caused by the presence of hard metals (copper, iron, and
manganese, in particular) in the pool water. Chlorine oxidixes the metals and bonds it to
your hair. Copper is the worst offender. The pool owner should have their water tested
& keep the metals within normal range.
If your hair is already green, purchase a shampoo that's specially formulated for
swimmers and contains either chelating agents (metal removers), such as EDTA
(ethylenediamene tetracetic acid), erythorbic acid, and possibly acetylsalicylic acid
(same as aspirin, and main ingredient in Scalpicin).
"Paul Brown Clarifying Shampoo" - to remove the Chlorine &
the "Green."
"Treat Elite Leave in Conditioner - to protect your hair in the
water.
"Ultra Swim" - claims to render the chlorine molecules
harmless.
Jason Swimmer's Shampoo (No description available).
Some swimmer's shampoos/conditioners may leave a "coating" on the hair.
To remove the build-up, rinse your hair after shampooing with white vinegar and water. Do
not over-use these products.
Check your local beauty supply for the above products.

Answer #HR023 - Green Hair - Pool Chlorine
Here's an article from a real
"chemical" expert!
Green Hair from Swimming Pools
by Johnie Crocker - President & CEO: Water Utility
Chemicals, Inc.
Blondes, whether peroxide or another hair
bleaching method, or just naturals, are susceptible to the green monster after a dip in
the pool. The culprit is not the chlorine, as Ive seen in many articles...

Answer #HR023 - Green Hair - Pool Chlorine
I had my hair turn green from sitting in a
whirlpool for about a half hour. Thankfully, it was just on the ends. I
thought I would have to get it cut out, but I went to a salon the next morning and then
used a mixture of peroxide of somesort, left it in for only a few minutes, and the green
came right out. I was relieved! I had blonde highlights put in my naturally
meduim blonde hair a week before. If this happens to any of you fellow blondes out
there, please have a beautician try this. You may not have to cut your hair! -

Question #HR024 - Hair loss - Shampooing
I recently used about half the amount of shampoo
that I normally use and lathered it into my wet hair. While trying to distribute this
small amount of shampoo by massaging it throughout the surface area of my scalp, I noticed
more hairs fell off onto my hands than usual because of the minimal amount of lather while
massaging. Is it normal to have more hairs falling than usual if I lather my hair with
less shampoo than I usually would and do the hairs grow back? - Greg
>>
Answer #HR024- Hair loss - Shampooing
If this has only occurred during this vigorous
shampooing, you are probably pulling the hair out; most likely hairs that are getting
ready to fall our naturally. If you aren't seeing more hairs than usual in your comb or
brush, you have nothing to worry about.

Question #HR025 - Hair dye - Orange roots
I tried to dye my own black roots dark brown. My
hair turned orangey red. what can I do at home to tone it down? - melanie
>>
Answer #HR025 - Hair dye - Orange roots
Ask your local beauty supply for a
"toner." Toners are added to dyes to remove the red tones by adding
"green" to the hair. This is a tricky process to do just roots, and should be
done by a professional.

Question #HR026 - Body Hair - Hirsuitism
I have a terrible problem. I am only 13 and I
have hair all over my body. I may have tanned color skin but my body hair is REALLY
noticable. I have hair on my toes, knuckles, my lower and upper back, my chest, stomach,
face, and even my butt. Is there any way I can remove all of this without shaving or
waxing? - Rachael
>>
Answer #HR026 - Body Hair - Hirsuitism
You need to see an Endocrinologist. It's called
hirsuitism, and you are producing too much male hormone. It's important you see a doctor,
as sometimes it can be due to an underlying disease process. That needs to be ruled out.

Question #HR029 Hair dye - Home Vs. Salon
my sister said that you should only have your
hair dyed in a salon or you will end up ruining your hair after a while of home dying does
anyone agree or disagree with this and maybe have some answer to why.. - chrissy
>>
Answer #HR029 - Hair dye - Home Vs. Salon
Dyeing your hair at home with a quality hair dye
is OK if you follow directions & take care of your hair properly. Bleaching
your hair at home can ruin your hair, as this is a very tricky process. When you
"dye" your hair, you are adding color, and is a milder process. Bleaching your
hair strips the color from it. This should be done by a professional, only.
