Colourless Max Effect is a permanent hair colour remover, that can be used to remove colour build before re-colouring the hair, fixing a colour mistake, or a way to remove dark colours from the hair without bleaching it.
The first impression of almost every member was how easy the process was to follow. When comparing to other colour-stripping products, many noted that this one had the least offensive smell, as it doesn’t contain ammonia or bleach. They also found this product the least-drying to the hair in comparison to competitor products.
Majority commented on how effective the product was in removing colour from their hair. However, it was noted that results do vary depending on the level of build-up in the hair. It won’t neccessarily remove all permanent colour on the first attempt and there may be need a second application.
Most users had success in bringing their hair back to its original colour, and commented on how soft and healthy it felt afterward.
Stats are based on a survey of 10 beautyheaven Trial Team members.

“I can confirm that I’ve tried every colour stripper available from the drugstore/chemist an nothing compares to this one !!! I cannot recommend this product enough if you want to change your hair colour without the bleach.” chloetheweirdo, Read more here…
“Colorless Max is making it easier for everyone by having this product. If you’re not happy with the current color hair you have, you should try it. It removes almost all the color I have prior to and leave my hair color back to original color. I think they can do a little bit better, maybe to make the formula a bit stronger since only 70% off color was washed out and I might need 2nd bottle since I have a long hair.” A.y.a72, Read more here…“My overall opinion is the product will suit colour toners and non permanent dye. I have a Permanent colour and it didn’t work for me.The product is easy to use and apply. I love the fact there is no ammonia.” Kylieralston, Read more here…“I’d tried many hair colour strippers before, most leaving my hair dry and the same colour. This is the first product to actually get my hair back to its natural colour as possible. I went from black hair to a nice darkish brown and I was so surprised how well it worked. A bonus is that it didn’t dry my scalp or ruin my fine hair like almost all the other drugstore ones had done in the past.” Pigeonof, Read more here…“Colourless max effect was perfect to wash out those pesky old hair dye and make my hair appear as one colour, mimicking a healthier softer hair. The instructions were clear to follow, the product was easy to use and certainly not difficult to wash off. After my hair dried and I observed my hair in the natural light I would have to say it is as if I have not dyed my hair! I see no residual hair dye and it certainly looks like the rest of my natural hair colour!” Annyex, Read more here…
Glad to see most people loved this, I tried it too and it worked so well and my hair felt so healthy afterwards
Thought it is going to be a hair colour trial. Never needed colour removal myself.
Great reviews!
Hey that’s great! I’ve always wondered about this kind of product
Not something I need, but good to read the reviews.
Sounds like a great back up product for mistakes!
Handy product for those who need it. I love reading any reviews.
Not a product I need.
I am using colour at home more now that my hairdresser daughter has moved away. Shes now unemployed due to the corona virus anyway 🙁
Not something that I will need as my hair is natural colour right now. But this product I imagine would be really popular. I would have loved it 5 to 10 years ago
Great reviews ladies, but not a product I’d use. I use a semi permanent colour to cover my grey hairs, so it’s mostly washed out before I get around to reapplying it.
Thanks for the reviews Beauties, although it is not a product I would use at the moment.
Not needed for me
I don’t have a need for this product but good to know this exists for any colouring accidents!
I don’t need this product, but interesting to read.
Don’t need this now – almost a year ago I returned to a hairdresser for hair colouring – sick of covering my greys and now going with them gradually.
Not for blonde or highlighted hair I assume?
Looks like and very useful product.
A great product to try.
Wow great reviews
Sounds like a great product to remove colour from the hair
Great results from the trial team.
I’ve used the other brand & I really liked it, but I’ll have to try this one.
I wish this was around when I had some hair disasters as a teen. I’m too afraid to do my own colour now.
Congrats to the triallers who did this!
Great reviews
I didn’t know such a product exists. Not something I need though
Great results. I wasnt sure if I should be part of this trial, but now I will buy the product and try it after seeing the reviews.
I don’t colour my hair so I have no use for this.
Great reviews to read
Some good sounding reviews.
I’m not confident enough to do home colouring so I won’t be stripping the colour from my hair. .
Has anyone gone from very dark brown to grey using this product?
I want to go grey now, but don’t want to wait years, I love the length of my hair,
if anyone has suggestions or tips. please let me know.
This is not a product that I need but thank you for the reviews.
Not a product I would use. I always have my hair highlighted in a salon.
Putting colour into your hair is not cheap and therefore it would be a shame to have to use a product to take the colour out?
Good that this product exist but I don’t need it.
this is something i would really love to try – get rid of the old colour in my hair
I don’t need this
Something I’ve been thinking of trying for a while now. I have so much colour build up and always DIY colour…..but with all the colour build up I don’t have much choice in colours…I can only stay dark.
I don’t need this.But good to know.
Still don’t need this
I don’t need this product. What’s with all the spam on this post?
SPAM SPAM SPAM Why is this happening?
So lucky that I don’t tie my hair
Spam has always been a massive issue on the Beautyheaven website. It is probably just one spammer (choosing different usernames) doing a cut and paste of spam on all of the recent articles.
I’ve reported the spell-casting spam by RoseMoore, TracyMatt, Oliviahannah, jeff2322 on the “SERIAL SPAM MEMBER ON BH” thread.
I have needed to remove a colour from my hair that was from a salon so it ended up costing about 3 times a normal salon colour and the other time was from a TAFE training class and that was a worse experience than the salon one. Now I just do it at home and no problems. My hair needed stripping several times to remove the disaster gutter grey/green colour from my blond locks.
I haven’t tried it such products for the hair dying and hair maxing…
