I want to dye my hair a crazy color like blue or purple, and I want to know some good hair products that work for *ahem* ethnic hair ( I'm Black if you haven't figured that out yet) I want something that will be semi-permanent. I also don't want to bleach my hair, I don't want to put too many chemicals in it. So if anyone has any ideas, let me know.
x1xRock_Faeriex3x answered Thursday August 26 2004, 1:34 pm: Red could be a good color, it would come out darker though, or maybe blue would work, i wouldn't suggest green though because green isn't the greatest color to have in your hair. One of my friends actually had green tips and it didn't look too good. Herbal essence works good although I don't think they have it in blue or red, you could try going to Hot Topic and find dye there, I know they have it, you could go to www.hottopic.com and look at the different kinds of dye that they have.

It comes in colors like blue and red and uses a comb to get the color into your hair. Hope I helped! [ xokristabelle's advice column | Ask xokristabelle A Question ]

Im mixed with black and white but have black hair. I know that if I were to get highlights or dye my hair, it would get dried out very bad. But, Its up 2 u!! For the dye, you could make it indigo... I think thats a cool color. lol. Hope I Helped!! [ LiLBoYCrAzYBaBe09's advice column | Ask LiLBoYCrAzYBaBe09 A Question ]
xo_dream answered Thursday August 26 2004, 11:50 am: If your hair is dark, they're probably going to have to bleach some out to get the color to show up + stay in. A friend of mine has dark brown hair, and she tried putting a color in underneath, and you could only see it if you knew she had done it + you were looking specifically for that, you know? Maybe your hairdresser has some way to do it, but most things don't show up well // at all on darker hair. [ xo_dream's advice column | Ask xo_dream A Question ]
