When experimenting with hair bleach or dye at home, it is important to be cautious and follow the instructions carefully. Bleaching products can be harsh on the hair, and if used improperly or left on for too long, they can cause serious damage. Always check the expiry dates of the products you're using, and make sure you follow every step in the process to avoid disastrous results.

Some causes of bleached hair falling out

The Briefly News team spoke with hair expert and salon manager Lusanda Tyawana about the hair bleaching process. We asked her what could cause hair dye to make hair fall out when washing it off. She responded:

"There are many reasons why hair dye can cause hair to fall out during washing if the chemicals weaken the hair or irritate the scalp. Ammonia and peroxide in the dye can make the hair more fragile and prone to breakage.

"If the scalp becomes irritated or if the hair is already damaged, it can lead to falling when washing. Keeping the dye for far longer than the prescribed time can also cause your hair to fall out when washing it."

We asked her if using the wrong dye or incorrect application could cause such damage. She said:

"Yes! Using the wrong type or incorrect application can contribute to hair fall. For example, using a dye that's too strong for your hair type or applying it unevenly can cause damage and make hair more likely to break.
"Moreover, not following the recommended processing time or applying the dye on already damaged hair can result in poor results and might make your hair fall out."

The team asked Lusanda if there were ways to prevent hair shedding while bleaching hair. The expert responded:

"To prevent hair falling and achieve the desired colour, start by choosing a hair dye that is suitable for your hair type and condition. Ensure you follow the instructions carefully, apply the dye evenly, and avoid leaving it on for too long.

"I swear these dyes lowkey have hair remover."

User @Neo G commented:

"Having worked in a salon, I'd say always relax your hair before dyeing it. If you're doing self styling always wait a week or so in between. You can dye + relax on the same day but it's best at a salon with someone who knows bonding treatment."
