It's not necessary to purchase developer (peroxide) from a hair salon. A regular beauty supply store carries it as well.
Hydrogen peroxide acts as a bleach by breaking down the natural pigment in hair, resulting in a lighter color. It works by oxidizing the melanin pigments in the hair shaft. The longer the hydrogen peroxide is left on the hair, the more it will lighten the color.
Hydrogen peroxide volume strengths typically used in hairdressing range from 10 to 40 volumes. The higher the volume, the stronger the effect on hair color and texture. Lower volumes are used for subtle color changes or toning, while higher volumes are used for more dramatic changes like lightening or bleaching.
You can simply rinse the hydrogen peroxide out of your hair with water, you don't need to blow dry it. It's best to wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner as per your regular hair care routine afterwards.
Hydrogen peroxide acts as an oxidizing agent in lightener formulas, breaking down the natural pigment in hair by releasing oxygen. This process lightens the hair by removing color molecules.
A 10 volume creme developer is a type of hydrogen peroxide solution used in hair coloring or bleaching to lift the hair color by one level. It is a gentle developer that is suitable for deposit-only color, toning, or color correction with minimal lifting. The "volume" refers to the strength or concentration of the peroxide in the developer.
At least a 20 Volume, 6% peroxide should be used for lifting. Although, the hair tone can still be changed with 10 Volume, 3%. Using this however, you will not see much lift.
20 volume peroxide comes from a beauty supply store. Try Sally's.
Its not the volume as in the amount, Its the volume as in the percentage 10vol would be less than 40vol. higher the vol the lighter and faster it lightens..remember faster is not always better..damage damage damage........

Perhydrol is another name for hydrogen peroxide, which is a chemical compound often used as a disinfectant, bleaching agent, and oxidizer. It has the chemical formula H2O2 and is commonly found in household products like first aid antiseptics and hair bleach.
Get the peroxide bottle and put the contents of it into a spray bottle. DONT MIX THE PEROXIDE WITH WATER OR LEMON JUICE IT WILL MISS UP THE STRENGTH OF THE PEROXIDE. Spray the peroxide on your hair. Let it dry. You can also go under the blow dryer and it will change colors.**If you go into the sun it will get lighter immediately**
You can dye hair professionally in a salon or with using home products. Some products to use to lighten hair until it turns blond is honey,hydrogen peroxide or lemon juice.(Read on how to use the products on the hair before use)
Hydrogen peroxide goes through the cuticle (colourless outside layer of the hair) and into the cortex (inside of the hair, has colour) and causes a reaction like an explosion and the colour breaks down and comes out of the hair.
