Erin, I used to have red hair and I used a stripping kit before. It doesn't make your hair go back to your original colour, I went like a gingery blonde and it didn't suit me at all. I ended up dying my hair a brown colour which was close to my natural colour. I think you should take more time thinking about it :-)

It's about the same as bleaching it. My sisters a long-time hair stylist, and she says the problem with color strippers is that they open the cuticle too much, causing severe damage that cannot be undone.

I've done it when my hair was short and even then, it can be brutal on the hair. It wasn't that it didn't look good, but it didn't feel the same afterward. I did it to go platinum, and loved the color, but for ladies with longer hair... such as myself these days...I don't recommend it.
