Hair color question for virgin hair?

Coloring dark hair to light?



How likely is it that I閳ユ獟l need more than 1 color treatment to get it to a shade of dark blond.?



My hair is dark, dark brown--almost black (thick %26amp; resistant). I閳ユ獓 like to get my hair to a dark blonde or possibly a very, very, very light brown--at it's darkest.



Will I have to dye my hair blond and then re-dye with blond again, resulting in lighter shades of brown, until it finally lightens to blond? I ask because that閳ユ獨 what happened last time I dyed my hair. But that was about 12 years ago, so I'm hoping to find ***wishful thinking*** that color technology has improved a bit. Or, as they seem to often say "revolutionized".



I'm trying to figure out which color I'll need. If I go with a super light blond, trying to get--at least--a light brown...Imagine my surprise if it ACTUALLY colors my hair the color on the box the first time I use it.Ooops! omg! :-o



How many colorings can our hair withstand w/out 2 much damage?(Not incl. new growth roots)



Hair color question for virgin hair?

you'd have to strip or bleach the dark color out.

Yeah, you can bleach your hair. Some stores sell bleaching kits. It comes with 2 bottles occasionally. One, you apply on to a strand of hair, and leave it there for 15 minutes. Then you can use the conditioner it comes with to make it clean, and to take out the split ends. It also helps it from damaging your hair. Note, it can damage your hair severely.

Pick a colour take it to your hairdresser and get them to do it, trust me I've seen to many stuff ups in my time of hairdressing. You'll end up spending more money doing it yourself because you'll end up in the salon getting it fixed. Remember getting it lighter you will have to get the regrowth done every 4 to 6 weeks if your natural hair colour is nearly black the roots will stand out really dark against a dark blonde. Try going one or two shades lighter then getting some really fine caramel blonde foils on top to break up the one colour it will look great!! that will give you the affect of being lighter. But your roots won't stand out as bad. Good Luck!!!



Hair color question for virgin hair?

First, do not buy any color or lightener (what many call bleach) from Wal-Mart or the like. Go to a pro or Sally Beauty Supply. The people who work at Sally are trained to help you with that exact question. If your hair is more than 4 shades darker than what you want to be, then you will need a lightener.



Tint (color) doesn't lift tint!! This is the rule of all hair color, but not true of lighteners. Get a lightener, then find a color you like and go with that. How it turns out after that is dependent upon your hair's condition. Gray hair affects the process. Underlying pigment is another factor. Most people will end up golden. Ash (blue, green, violet) corrects this. Neutral is almost always the safest way to go.



Sally Beauty Supply also has many great conditioning treatments that can help your color and protect from damage and repair it.

What things could I do for my dry hair?

I was born and raised with very straight and shiny hair,very healthy.But I think I messed up my hair somehow,maybe I trusted the wrong people to dye my hair.My hair looks very dry now,and I've tried so many shampoos that are for dry damaged hair,but nothing seems to work,maybe I need a treatment,a natural one or something,or maybe is the way I manage my hair.Please give some tips of what to use for my hair and how to manage it properly.



What things could I do for my dry hair?

Your hair needs a rest from too much attention.



My opinion is that you should get it shortened up a bit.(to get the driest ends off.) Use a gentle shampoo and a very-good quality moisturizing, conditioner. Then for a month or so wash your hair only every other day, or every 3rd day if you can go that long. Avoid all electrical hair appliances. No hair dryers. No curling irons or curlers. Nothing. Also avoid any hair styling products that contain alcohol or urea--both are extremely drying on hair. Also avoid sprays with propellents (aerosols).



Finally, (this sounds icky--) as your scalp gets feeling oily, massage your head with the pads of your fingers (not fingernails), distributing the natural oils down the shaft of hair. (recommend doing this in private!)



We (society) prefer to shampoo away this natural oil and then try to put it back with (better smelling) conditioners. Sometimes we just have to admit, nature knows best!



good luck!



What things could I do for my dry hair?

use olive oil. and just different greases to make it healthy again dont put anymore chemiceals in it and when it gets healty again get it styled



What things could I do for my dry hair?

Do a hot oil treatment every other day...Leave in covered with towel about 20 minutes.



Also try some Pantene leave in condtioner...



Do not blow dry...try to let dry on own.



What things could I do for my dry hair?

shave yourself bald



What things could I do for my dry hair?

Try a hydrating mask once a week Nioxin makes a great one!

Also if you can try not to blow dry or use a diffuser. Also when you get out of the shower don't rub your hair with the towel to dry it just pat it lightly.



What things could I do for my dry hair?

what you need to do is use olive oil rub a little bit through ur hair pretty regularly- it give back shine and moisture to ur hair.



also if you can dont dye ur hair very frequently or ever. the less attention ur hair gets the healthier it is. stop blow drying it (if u do) just towel dry it and smooth it with a comb. dont straigten it either



good luck



What things could I do for my dry hair?

use mustard oil at the roots of hair. use your finger tips for massaging the scalp AND eat raw salads/fruits(rich in fibre cotent). drink a lot of water(4-6 glass) in the morning.



What things could I do for my dry hair?

First of all buy some Olive Oil and measure out about 3 tablespoons into a small glass container. Dampen your hair and work the olive oil into your hair.Leave it in your hair ,the longer the better and then shampoo and condition ur hair like you normally do,also I used Cholesterol conditioner,u get it in the black section of hir products at most stores..I know this because I had the same problem from to much coloring done to my hair in a short period of time.



What things could I do for my dry hair?

I have long straight hair too and I don't know if this will help but berfore you go to bed put baby oil in your hair for a few minutes and then wash it off with a good shampoo and conditioner after that towel try so its damp then braid it. Also a trim at the tips will help too. Good Luck!!

My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

I take care of my hair it is strong and wavy . ihave it cut every 6 wks rarely brush or dry it. my brush is ok it has all its bobbles. my hair is coloured but minimally , a few slices two or three times a year.my hair has always been dry but it only started breaking after i used a strengthening conditioning treatment . i need help . is it better to wear your hair up or down to prevent more damage? i really dont want to have all my hair cut off -its only just past shoulder length .



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

Have it down its less damage and if the conditioner is giving you trouble then try a new one.



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

down does less damage as hair bands can brake hair but if you are inclined to brush and re-fix hair then up would be better use thick bands and not too tight.



wind and sun can dry out hair too i use a UV spry for hair it gets less dry-ed out and less inclined to bleach.



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

Never use elastic band to tie it back. Invest in good quality hair accessories. Have a salon treatment every 6-8 weeks.



Good Luck

My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

don't use elastic on your hair when you tie it up and don't have it too tight use combs or grips,don't use the bobble brush use one without +leave in conditioners are great



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

clip your end



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

Go see a professional hairstylist! First, they can TRIM your ends off then they can give a recommendation to use for shampoo, conditioner, and styling products. Ask the stylist about what kind of brush to use on your hair too. GOOD LUCK!



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

put yoghurt on your hair like half an hour before you wash it, it'll work!



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

shave



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

get a salon deep condition treatment also buy one for at home and use at least once a week. continue to get hair trimmed. also i could be your diet causing so eat loks more protein. use minimal heat on your hair from dryers etc and protect it from the sun. be as gentle as possible with it. i know you said you didnt want to but i think your best option is to get it cut shorter than you would maybe like but i always think short healthy hair looks a million times better than longer unhealthy hair. good luck with it though



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

I have the same prob and am dead against cutting my hair :'( Your hair is probably breaking because of the lack of protein.I use Karatase shampoo,the green one for damaged hair.you can buy it online or from a good salon.I also use Redkin Protein Spray and after serum to replace protein in my hair.My hair has been much softer since!Give it a try.It is expensive but if u don't wanna snip ur hair it is worth a go!Good luck!x



My hair is split but halfway up not at the ends i dont know what to do!?

If i was you i would get Tigi catwalk oatmeal and honey shampoo and conditioner (it will work wonders), also don't put your hair up wet and when you blow wave it blast it with cold once you are finished. Try not to use hairbands with metal bits or those snag bands.

What can I do about my hair problem?

I use a hair straightener but only wash my hair and use it every OTHER day. I have noticed things that look like little white joints about 1-2 inches from the bottom of my hair. If I just run my fingers down a strand, they break off at that point and become split ends. How can I manage these? Currently, I wash my hair with vive (loreal) shampoo and use a conditioner called "brilliant brunette". I don't protect it before drying (with ionizing dryer) or straightening, but I don't know what a goo dproduct is.



I want to stop my hair from breaking off bc Im trying to grow it. Should I do oil treatments? What do you recommend? I don't have much $$.



What can I do about my hair problem?

The easiest thing to do is to stop straightening your hair.



Use a breakage prevention shampoo and conditioner, like dove, garnier fructis, sunsilk, etc. And TRIM YOUR HAIR! every month...just take like an inch or lesss off.



What can I do about my hair problem?

The best thing is to stop straightening it so much try doing it once a weak. Also try to leave in your condition longer when you wash or you can even do some treatments with al home products. Go to GLAMOUR.com they have plenty of tips.



What can I do about my hair problem?

I recommend cutting your hair a little above the joints. If this is too short I'm sorry I'm not very good at mesurements!



What can I do about my hair problem?

If you want to continue to straighten your hair, you need a thermal protector. There are lots of good ones out there, the choice is yours depending on how much you want to spend. But you need to apply a thermal protector before you use the straightener. Those white ends are your split ends being burnt.



And even though your letting it grow don't forget to get regular trims. There is no point in growing out unhealthy hair!



What can I do about my hair problem?

If you are getting split ends you should get a trim, even if you are trying to grow your hair out, you dont want straggly hair I am sure.



V05 has a good hot oil treatment. You could try that. Also get a good leave in conditioner.



Protection products for a flat iron arent cheap.



Good Luck.



What can I do about my hair problem?

You NEED to use heat defence because you are not protecting your hair and it dameges it!



i use Tresemme heat defence smooth.....it is brilliant and i never had any damage for my hair yet!!

HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

I had naturally dark brown hair but have double processed it at home myself for three years. The color is sandy blonde with lighter highlights, beautiful color something no one else has and very natural looking...my only problem is thery're a little fried. Besides getting deep conditioning treatments which I am going to start doing, what can I do to make them healthy and shiny. Would it help to mention my hair is oily type.



HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

you can get special moisterizing shampoo %26amp; conditioners for chemically treated hair they arnt as harsh on your hair as normal shampoos%26amp; conditioners.



or use a deep conditioning mask u can get from any pharmacy like boots superdrug or whever u just leave them on for like half hour for an extra treat for thirsty damaged hair.



also dont brush your hair when its wet or it will break off.



and use hair protecting spray when straighning your hair ect..hope i helped :)



xx



HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

my hairdressor recommended this 4 me



put a half bottle of conditioner in it put a towel in a microwave for 3 minutes and wrap ur hair in it leave it in for an hour wash it out in cold water to leave a shine



and just a note to go16 it will not starts a fire if u put a dry towel in the microwave for 3 mins. i did it just yesterday and it is the best and cheapest way 2 get healthy hair!



HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

I would stop exposing your hair to heat and let it air dry.



It really makes a difference.



You should also ask your hair stylist.



HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

good brand shampoos like the ones that cost more than $4 bucks dont go for the cheap ones they dont help your they just take out SOME of the products in your hair. but the deep treatments will work wonders and help your hair a lot



HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

Just a note to add to the first answer:



When you put the towel in the microwave make sure it's wet!!! Otherwise you will have a fire on your hands. No fun!



HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

washing it more often will help. i wash mine two times, back to back.



HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

what you can do to get your hair shinier is this...mash up an avocodo and put it in your hair when you shower next..its possible that it will work depending on your hair type



HAIR EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!!I need help please...?

you should use pantene pro-v or pantene restoratives....



i think that is a nice product to use for hair that wants to be healthy,I've been using that shampoo since I was a baby!



Hope this helps

Growing Out Mixed Hair?

I am Latina/White/Asian/Black/Native American



First off, I think it would be good if I told you my hair care regime so you can get a feel of what I do now...



-multivitamin



-8-10 cups of water daily



-exercise 3-5x weekly



-pretty healthy diet



-massage scalp daily



-shampoo weekly



-condition daily



-deep conditioner weekly



-protein treatment 2x a month



Okay, second of all is my hair type. I have tight, frizzy, almost afro curls in around the crown of my hair and in the underneath layers. The rest of my hair is in medium-tight curls and waves. It is pretty soft, and is shiny, too.



I just want to know how I can grow my hair faster (if you're just going to post, "it's impossible to grow hair faster or "hair grows about 1/2 inch a month" don't post at all).



I've heard camellia oil works really well, and have also heard about kelp tablets and HairTopia vitamins, but what really works?



Growing Out Mixed Hair?

i am only going to say this as a suggestion i am also mixed and my sister has the same hair type it is more of a suggestion to grow stronger hair so that your hair shaft doesnt get weak and your hair doesnt break off faster while your growing it. For starters dont use shampoos and conditioners that you can find in a regular drug store...period. Buy from makers like paul mitchell, nexxus....etc. the reason for this is the shampoos and cond. from the drug store have fillers in them like clay or mud which can coat the hairshaft and leave them thick and heavy can cause the hair to break off. also use a shampoo with tea tree oil in it every once in a while will strip off extra dht and will help hair to grow better (not necessarily faster) but when you do use the shampoo make sure you use a really good conditioner because the shampoo strips everything off. make sure you get your ends clipped every six weeks i know it seems like your going backwards but it helps. have you ever had a friend who cut all their hair off and it seemed like only yesterday because all their hair has grown back?? its because they were starting with healthy strands...keep those split ends down and....i cant stress enough have a great cond. to tell you the truth as long as you have a great cond. all of the other things (like hot oils, deep cond.) you can do as maint. once a month. hope this helps



Growing Out Mixed Hair?

keep trimming it. JUST A LITTLE TRIM!!! trimming it helps it grow out longer and keeps it looking healthy.



Growing Out Mixed Hair?

Personally, I massage coconut oil onto my hair before I wash it. Then I shampoo and condition it. Use this method for a prolonged period of time and you'll see good results. Its very healthy for your hair!.. well, it is for mine because I have long, black, and silky hair. Hope I helped.



Growing Out Mixed Hair?

Your hair is curly, maybe you just dont notice the growth. Ive heard that HairTopia vitiamins work.



Growing Out Mixed Hair?

Yes it is possible. You can try various pills for this purpose along with fish oil, kelp, or vitamin B tablets. I've tried HairTopia and it does work very well. Another option is to straighten your hair because hair is longer when straight. Remember that anything you have to rub on to your hair will not work.



Growing Out Mixed Hair?

i'm not sure what does work, but i tried dr. miracles and it made my scalp tingle, but not on the first try.



I don't think it did anything.



good luck, though...



Growing Out Mixed Hair?

wow! you're so mixed (great thing :) )and pretty (based on your pic)! i think you seem to take very great care of your hair already with the massages and cleaning and conditioning. i personally think that's the best way to keep your hair growing and going. you might want to try Vitamin E and Biotin pills.



Growing Out Mixed Hair?

well sounds like you have a good diet and all that other good stuff that is suppose to work on your hair i have heard that prenatal (vitamins when your pregnant) really works good luck
