Garnier Commercial ⭐ How to Bleach Dark Hair at Home Spot

Using Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Lightening / Bleach Kits

Bleaching dark hair (dark brown or black) requires the right technique because dark pigments lift slowly and can turn warm or brassy. Garnier’s Ultra Crème formulas are designed to lighten while nourishing, but the process still needs care.

Below is the full method shown in Garnier’s “How to Bleach Dark Hair” video.

🧴 1. What’s Inside the Garnier Bleach Kit

You’ll typically find:

• Developer Bottle
• Lightening Powder
• Lightening Cream
• Nourishing Anti‑Brass Conditioner
• Gloves
• Instructions

These combine to create the bleaching mixture.

🧪 2. Prep Before You Start

This step is crucial for dark hair.

Do this first:

• Start with dry, unwashed hair (natural oils protect your scalp).
• Wear an old shirt or towel.
• Apply petroleum jelly around your hairline, ears, and neck.
• Brush your hair and divide it into 4 sections.
• Put on the gloves.

Optional but recommended:

• Do a strand test to see how your hair lifts and how long it needs.

🧴 3. Mix the Bleach

Inside the kit:

Open the developer bottle.

Add the lightening powder.

Add the lightening cream.

Close the bottle and shake until fully blended.

You should end up with a creamy, smooth mixture.

🎨 4. Apply to Mid‑Lengths and Ends FIRST

This is the most important rule for dark hair.

Dark hair is dense and resistant, so:

• Start applying bleach from the mid‑lengths down to the ends.
• Leave the roots untouched for now.
• Saturate the hair fully — patchy saturation = patchy lift.
• Let this process for 15–20 minutes before touching the roots.

Why? Roots lighten faster because of scalp heat.

🌟 5. Apply to Roots LAST

After the mid‑lengths and ends have started lifting:

• Apply bleach to the roots.
• Massage gently for even coverage.
• Make sure every section is coated.

⏱️ 6. Processing Time

For dark brown or black hair:

• Total processing time is usually 30–45 minutes.
• Check your hair every 5–10 minutes.
• Stop immediately if you feel burning or see breakage.

Never exceed the maximum time listed in your Garnier instructions.

🚿 7. Rinse & Condition

When you reach the desired lift:

Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

Apply the Anti‑Brass Conditioner included in the kit.

Leave it on for the full recommended time.

Rinse again.

This conditioner helps reduce brassiness and restores softness.

🎨 8. After Bleaching: Tone or Color

Bleached dark hair usually lifts to:

• Orange → needs a blue‑based toner or a cool brown dye
• Yellow → needs a purple‑based toner or a blonde dye

Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Crème shades can be applied after bleaching, as long as your hair feels healthy enough.

💛 Tips for Best Results on Dark Hair

• You may need more than one bleaching session (spaced weeks apart) to reach blonde.
• Deep‑condition your hair for several days after bleaching.
• Avoid heat styling for at least a week.
• Use purple or blue shampoo depending on your undertone.
• Always do a patch test 48 hours before bleaching.
