I've been highlighting my hair for a few years, and I'm tired of the dryness and breakage despite weekly protein pacs, regular moisturizing and trims.....plus we have well water which gives my hair a LOVELY greenish-orange tint. I'd like to go back to my natural brownish-blonde shade to minimize roots and (hopefully) salvage whats left of my hair before I either willingly shave my head or go bald from all the breakage and hair loss! Someone suggested I try Redken Shades Colorback EQ, or to have "low-lights". Which would be healthier for fragile hair? Any suggestions would be most appreciated!

I have never, ever had a breakage or damage problem. I don't know if it's because Redken is gentler or not but as for me, no probs. I highlighted about every 3 mo. and have fine, straight hair. Good luck! KellyF.

I use this product everyday and it is wonderful! I have NEVER! repeat! NEVER! had a bad experience with Shades EQ! Please have your stylist use Redken 'PRE-ART' clarifying treatment to remove mineral deposits from your hair before coloring. And do cut the bad ends as ness (after the coloring please). You may have to cut more than you want to now, but go ahead and do it. It will save you from having to cut a lot more later, if you don't and the hair keeps on splitting up the shaft. There is practically any color combo possible with the intermixable formulas available in shades. post if you need more help. william
So, I'm assuming then that if you can highlight with this stuff that it does contain peroxide, right? What is the difference between, say, Shades EQ and a basic Framesi permanent color? Thanks!

Thanks!Hi Gigi,I am definitely not a 'pro' in the haircare field, other than being a very diverse user of many products & treatments over the years, so I don't know if it contains peroxide or not. Perhaps William could answer better than I but I do know I never had any problems w/ Shades. Sorry I couldn't be more informative! Kelly F.
