Questions about and advice for CURLY HAIR!

Hello! This is my first post here!
Anyway , I have a question and also something I picked up that REALLY works well.
My question is: Does anyone know a particular brand of haircolour that works well on curlyheads?
I've tried l'oreal's open. Smelled great , but instead of the ash blonde I saw on the box , I had this brassy , screaming orange , which soon faded to a bleached , bananna-like yellow. I've also tried Garnier Nutrisse-Smelled terrible , the colour (dark reddish-brown) looked good for about two days before fading to a mousy , mud puddle brown. The last kind of dye I tried was Feria-it worked okay but again , it faded within a few days to that mud puddle brown. So , has anyone had ANY luck with a certain kind of dye they can reccomend?


Something I found that really works well for fighting frizz.
Johnsons baby lotion. Mix it with your gel (not a lot but some) and use as usual. Or you can put a REALLY thin layer on your hands and just work it through your hair. It works really well with the frizz and as far as I know doesn't damage hair.
Thanks!
