Baking soda and anti-dandruff shampoo can help remove hair dye naturally. Mix equal parts and apply to your hair, leaving it on for 10-15 minutes before rinsing. Repeat the process until the color fades. Another option is using vitamin C tablets: crush 10-15 tablets, mix with shampoo to form a paste, and apply to damp hair. Cover with a shower cap, wait for an hour, then rinse thoroughly. Both methods may require multiple applications for desired results.
