On another forum, I read about giving terribly tangled hair a bleach bath as a last resort. I did not have horrible hair issues at the time so I did not bookmark the site.
Apparently, you submerge the hair in a solution of bleach/hot water while combing through it (holding the weft upright). After rinsing thoroughly an ammonia solution is applied.
Has anyone heard of this or tried it?
Sounds crazy, I know, but I am desperate. My hair looks like three day dead roadkill on a windy day

| Wow, I have NEVER heard of that before, dipping it in bleach. My brain doesn't want to wrap around that one. Have many of you guys tried this? |
