I would think taht the only thing you can really do safely is a decolorizer, or hair stripper. Color will never lift color. Bleach will, but its harder on your hair than decolorizer, or stripper. I have never heard of hs or the baking soda thing causing immediate color fading, and even when your color does finally fade out, its hard to say what color it will fade to. If your hair is really dark naturally, then I would say wait it out... after a time the black will fade, just hard to say how much it will fade. im sorry if none of that was what you were hoping to hear, but i really hth!
