    Default Henna removal gimmick?

    Hi all

    I’m curious - I’ve seen a couple of ways of supposedly removing henna and indigo on the web and wondered if anyone had tried them?

    Method 1. Wash hair with clarifying shampoo twice, put vodka on hair and leave for 15 mins. Wash hair twice again and leave suds on second wash on for 5 mins before rinsing.

    Method 2. Put 4 tablespoons of baking soda into a large bowl of water. Dunk hair in it and squeeze off excess. Throw water away and refill with water/baking soda. Do 4 or 5 times. Then next day put juice of 7 lemons on your hair and then rinse after 30 mins. Do not shampoo for 2 or 3 days because it will still be stripping colour apparently.

    Both are reported to remove henna and indigo and lighten hair.

    Just wondered if anyone has heard of these before, and what your thoughts are?.

    I’ll be honest, I am tempted but am also concerned about my hair melting or something daft
