jm823 ive worked in a salon that uses those color and from my experience using those or any color for that matter on afro American hair can be tricky It can be done but with a knowledgeable stylist who has performed this service many times over. My Advice its really not so much about the brand is more about the stylist who using the brand a knowledgeable stylist is what you want to find jm823, because if the stylist has worked with your hair type they will know what is best for you.When your looking for a specialty service go to a specialist! Try and find a stylist who is a color technician only they are hard to find but worth there weight in gold. Consider this: when you buy a cake you can go to a super market and get it from there bakery or you can go to a bakery and get a cake with a lot more bells and whistle that are customize to your taste and designs you may pay more but you will leave a great impression on your guest. Conclusion: the appearance of your hair and how well you keep can say a lot about you it can either open the door for you or it can shut the door we are judge first on our appearance  ........find a specialist who has done what your seeking.and go with them. luvinghair over 15 years experience in the hair industry. |

From my experience working on African American hair, I would say don't use it. I do agree that it does depend on the stylist, but from the times I have seen the products used on African American hair, I have not been impressed. It tends to make African American hair look dried out & somewhat brittle. For the health of your hair, go to someone who has experience with your hair texture, so they will know off top what is best for you. ------------- www.MyWigsAndWeaves.com |
