Years ago, I worked in the food industry, and it was normal practice then to mix a very small amount of bleach with a detergent in hot water as a bactericide. The amount of bleach used was around 1 teaspoon per gallon of water.
Whilst in small amounts (capful) it may prove harmless to mix the two. If you were to mix both in larger quantities or undiluted a chemical reaction takes place giving off a toxic gas which when inhaled burns and irritates.

Does bleach dissolve hair?
No, it does not. ------------------- Actually, yes, it can. If we are talking about household bleach. Bleach is actually a solution of some different chemicals, including sodium hypochlorite, which is a bleaching agent, which has no effect on hair other than the oxidization of the pigment in the hair (melanin) leading to the bleaching of the hair. However, household bleaches also commonly contain lye, or sodium hydroxide. It is added to speed up the reaction of bleach. And lye has the ability to decompose the protein of hairs, so basically, it can dissolve hair. That is why lye is a major component of drain cleaners, it dissolves hair build-up. Usually laundry bleach contains less lye, as lye can degrade the fibers of clothing.
