In many cases bleach uses hydrogen peroxide or ammonium persulfate as an oxidizing agent, which enters the hair’s core and changes its composition. Hair bleach damages your hair and is toxic. Types of hair bleach range from ones that slightly lighten hair color a couple of shades to other bleaches that completely strip hair of its color.
