Are you a wannabe blondie? Thank goodness our perilous peroxide days are long gone! Now, bleaching hair at home is a failproof five-step process. But the best part is that Garnier has a new towhead in town: Charcoal Bleach Ultra Cool Platinum by Nutrisse Ultra Color.
Featuring advanced neutralizing technology, even red undertones and very dark base colors can experience the coolest tones of bleached hair with just one treatment. And by deep conditioning with pure charcoal and five nourishing fruit oils, it kicks brass and breakage to the curb while protecting hair bonds. We’ve come a long way, baby!
The Charcoal Bleach kit acts like a bleaching power duo. First, the triple-power charcoal-infused lift formula lightens your hair by up to eight shades. Then, the blue neutralizing conditioner nourishes and neutralizes even the brassiest tones.
The box contains gloves, instructions and all the formulas you need. Just throw on an old t-shirt and grab some towels, hair clips and body lotion – and prepare to release your inner blond!

Your hair should be dry and unwashed. To prevent staining your skin, rub a little body lotion around your hairline (and Garnier Micellar Water can remove any dye stains later). Remove any jewelry, wrap a towel around your shoulders, and put on the gloves.
