Comments
PamilaWofford: Coconut oil helps your hair grow. You shouldn't deep condition your hair before you color it. It helps to do it after you color your hair. I've been a hairdresser for a long time.
Nini: If you deep condition with coconut oil at least twice weekly prior to washing, you shouldn't end up with any issues. Don't forget to eat well to strengthen your hair. Beauty starts from the inside!
PamilaWofford: Coconut oil has nothing to do with the color it will turn your hair. It depends on the amounts of Pheomelanin and Eumelanin.
Val1708: Training nights are fantastic. I go to a top end salon & have my hair coloured by someone doing their training. I get my hair coloured for £10 & it helps the student with experience. It's a win win experience.
Tina: I've been using Loreal hair colouring for years and at 67 my hair is still healthy and thick and in great condition. That's using 10+ Blonde. I've always used good shampoo and conditioners though either John Freida or a Salon Brand.
PamilaWofford: Well then it should labeled temporary solutions. These contain metallic salts that can destroy the texture of your hair leaving it porous and unable to properly hold color
Nini: I wasn't discussing the colour, just the condition of the hair in general. Some dyes can make your hair pretty ragged.
Jackie: These are all temporary solutions. Till you wash out your hair. If you want your hair colored, go to a salon and get it done wright! Because a corrective color can cost you a fortune!
Sev: Also, as a hair dresser you should know that coconut oil has protein in it and using it to often can break the hair. It has zero moisturizing properties, its only good to use after an actual deep conditioner so you don't lose any moisture. But again, it doesn't moisturize and protein on hair isn't a good thing to use in excess. Twice weekly is way too often.
Sev: @pamilawoffard they all say temporary touch up.. And no not all of them contain metallic salts. Some are literally just mica or dyed talc powder.
