I don't think it would hurt to put the dye in after u bleach your hair. I color my hair as offend as I need it. You shouldn't have any problems..

All henna products recommend to wait at least 2 to 3 months to use after a chemical dye especially bleaching. I waited 3 months after bleaching my hair. Henna only changes your hair slightly and does not change your actual hair color. Henna gives you great highlights to your natural color and does a great job at covering gray. However, henna takes 3 to 4 times of use before you notice results & must be left on longer then one hour. Good news, you can apply henna every 2 to 3 weeks and the highlights increase with each application. Hope this advice helped...

It's stayed in my hair permanently. It just depends on how you want to do the roots. If your natural hair color matches the color you're dying you could make it stretch 6-8 weeks!

I usually color my hair first then use the keratin a few days or so later. It works nicely.

Temporary. Depending on how long it stays in your hair, it stays it's color longer. I've had it stay black ( in my hair ) for about 3 weeks before having to do touch-up areas. I don't buy anything else, this stuff does it's job.

You might want to wait a couple of weeks to see if the color fades just a bit, otherwise, depending on the condition of your hair, you can recolor any time. I usually color my hair at 5/6 weeks.

Your hair was probably bleached before applying the VV. You probably need a professional service, witch involves repigmentation and then applying the black color. Or applying straight black semipermanent color. Obviously your hair coloring history involved a lot of abuse, meaning a high degree of porosity. It is not the Elumen that doesn't allow your hair to take permanent black color, it is the condition of your hair.

My wife uses this product. The directions are included in the package together with plastic gloves, plastic hair cover and conditioner. Do not shampoo within 8 hours before coloring your hair. Only apply to hair if you have not used any styling products within 24-48 hours before. If hair has been permed or relaxed best to wait at least 7 days before using. If you have any type of henna, metallic dye or color restorer, wait until it has grown out or cut off before using. Apply CoSaMo to dry hair using gloves provided directly from the bottle. No mixing is required. Cover hair with plastic hair covering. Leave on for 20-40 minutes. Rinse hair until the water is clear. Apply conditioner. Wait for 2 minutes and rinse out. That's all it takes to obtain a lovely color.

If you shampoo directly after, you have wasted all that time dying your hair. Just leave it on for a while and rinse it out.

You definitely have to have you're hair bleached, I tried to do it before bleaching my hair and it did not take at all.

NEVER BLEACH BLACK ONES! Extensions can not be lightened to a lighter color than the original color was, if you do want to dye them, buy blonde ones. I've been dying, bleaching, and cutting my own and my friends extensions for about a year and a half now, I know what I'm saying.(:

I've heard it is better to color the hair first and days later apply the keratin treatment because coloring can remove the keratin, in my case I color my hair every four months so I really can't tell you how much coloring can damage the keratin treatment, but I wouldn't recommend doing both the same day.

It is a hair dye. You see results at the first use within 5-10 min. of shampooing it in. It was gentle to my hair but the main thing I do not like is that I have only been able to find it in the color black. Another product that only takes 5 min. is Just 5 Colorant for Women. You can usually find at drug stores and beauty supply shops, however, Just 5 for women contains peroxide.

I had previously been "relaxing" or perming my hair as I am a black female and yes, I did use it on my permed hair. It did not cause any damage that I could tell. What I also liked about it was that you only had to leave it on your hair for a short time...5-10 min max.

You should leave the perm on your hair according to the directions. If you don't have the directions, which i'm assuming is the reason for your question, you don't want to leave the perm in your hair any longer than 20 minutes according to your hair type. Please make sure you have not washed or scratched your hair or scalp as this does not help the process and can cause abrasions or scars in the scalp. If you have washed your hair, I would wait at least a day or two for best results. If you have sensitive skin you may want to leave the perm in a shorter period of time. 15 or 20 minutes is pretty good. You also want to make sure that you start around the edges of your hair line first and work your way through the rest of your hair, making sure to part your hair in sections. 4 sections is best, it will help you to go through your hair quickly. Don't use the product directly in your scalp at first. Apply the product to the edges of all your hair first and then, if your scalp is not burning apply the rest of the product to the scalp as you go back through your hair to apply the rest of the product. Make sure to use gloves for skin protection and vaseline if you have it or the clear jelly that sometimes comes with the product. Apply the clear jelly or vaseline around the entire edges of your hairline. Example: if you have vaseline it will work fine, just take a medium helping and spread it on your face at the hairline and around the ears incase product gets onto the skin. this will keep you from burning the skin with the product. I hope this helps and I hope it wasn't too much information. I enjoy helping if I can. Good luck with straightness.

I do a perm after I have cut my hair so it is similar to the picture on the box except I have no bangs or shorter areas. I think I use almost 50 of the mid-sized rollers. My hair is long enough to get rollers on the sides and back. Since I am slow at rolling I do not apply the permanent mix until I am finished. I even add a few drops of water to compensate for the fact that my hair has dried a bit. I drop the rollers on the top so they are not rolled all the way to my scalp. I have plenty to thoroughly saturate each roller/curl. My hair is fine but dense/ thick but not coarse. Hope this helps.

This one comes w/ bleach powder already, so u'll be bleach your hair along w/ the dye. Don't pre-bleach it. Because all Palty's products targeting at Asian black hair, I would say leave the bleach out when you dye your hair since you already got medium brown. But if you want your hair look just like the picture shown on the box, bleach it!!
