Bleaching dark hair, a chemical process, involves stripping the hair of its natural pigment to lighten it. It's commonly used for creating highlights, balayage, and blonde hair colors.
Bleaching dark hair has gained popularity due to its ability to transform hair color dramatically and create various styles. It can enhance facial features, add depth and dimension, and cover gray hair. Historically, bleaching agents have evolved from natural substances like lemon juice and peroxide to modern, safer formulations.
