Is this only for ethnic hair? I have extremely dry curly/wavy hair that came in after losing my hair to chemo. It has been dyed with demi-permanent

No I believe it is all natural and can be used on all different hair types.

yes, i am of mix descent an my hair is wavy, dry and frizzy at times, an it works wonders on my, wont use any other dryer, on natural hair if you use a little natural oil it will even give it a curl

I used it on my mom who has naturally white hair and it was absolutely beautiful! =]. Just don't condition your hair before you dye it only wash and make sure your hair is dry when you put the dye on and leave it on for about an hour

I have very thick, curly hair and my hair is never frizzy after drying with my Babyliss hairdryer. However, I use good hair products, such as Lanza Healing Oil on my damp hair (about the size of a quarter) before drying. Works well every single day!!!

Francenia, also looking at a previous answer before mine it will be good or bad to different types. My hair has improved 100% with this product and ven though it had loads of highlited and added colors to it it doesn't damage, dry out or dull my hair (or hair color) at all. But definitely asking would help. I help you get all good luck as I love this product.

It's not permanent. I have an Asian friend that likes to put it in a couple parts of her hair for summer and her hair is really dark. It comes out on most I think. I have dirty blonde hair that's why I'm using my friend as an example. I use it to really bring out my highlights in the summer.

You are supposed to use it on dry hair. I would also use a styling creme for longer lsting results

Hey Vicki, I'm African American as well, however my hair isn't very coarse. My daughter on the other hand has very thick and coarse hair. For years I've been trying to find anything to help with her dry scalp. Nothing worked until I got Wen. Wen was actually designed for African American hair since sulfate really dry out our hair. Her dry scalp is almost gone & I've only been using it for a little over a month now. I've also noticed that her hair has more sheen to it & is easier to comb through. I don't think that by you swimming any damage will be done by using Wen, saying I'm also a swimmer & use Wen on my hair. It's supposed to help restore moisture. But my motto is try it once & if you don't like it don't buy it again. I hope I helped. Have a blessed one. :-)

Hello. I am Puerto Rican with coarse, naturally curly hair. I LOVE this. It doesn't leave my hair dry and brittle like box dyes. I stopped using relaxers, went all natural rocking my curls, so it was very important for me to hit the salon. Well this is formulated specifically for you, your hair type and you won't spend the big bucks you would at the salon. If it is a color that will stress your hair out too much, they will not even give it as an option. My curls have stayed the same and not stretched, worn out as with box dye. And yes the color you will not be disappointed with. I love it...

My daughter has a darker blonde very fine curly hair and hers was like practically out by time she woke up the next morning so hers just took one shampoo. What kind of shampoo are you using? Use a clarifying shampoo if you are having an issue. I wouldn't worry though it is only chalk. Definitely not permanent

I did not lose my hair in chemo, but nioxin was very helpful in keeping my hair in good shape while receiving chemo. I would recommend it once your hair starts up again for sure. If it helps grow your hair would be best answered by a hair specialist

I am an African American female with thick wavy hair that I relax. My hair is dark brown with light highlights. The dark brown works perfectly for me.

I didn't have this problem. Maybe you didn't leave the dye on long enough or didn't apply it correctly to the roots. Since one other reviewer also had your problem, you should contact the manufacturer, since there must be a difference in hair types.Ursula Behrens

I have very dry hair and used a separate condition mostly on the ends. I found this product made my hair quite soft and manageable and I normally use WEN..hope that helps.

I am caucasian, I use just a few drops on my scalp and about a dime size amount on my ends. My hair is shoulder length and thick and curly. I would say experiment with it, I have really dry hair so I use a bit more depending on how dry my ends are. It is mostly coconut oil so it isn't a heavy oil at all. :)

For me, it works best when my hair is partially dry and I use it to finish drying and add curl. However, my hair is very short, very fine and very straight. It might make your hair too curly if you already have a perm, especially if you are using it on dry hair. I think it is meant to be used when your hair is partially dry. Hope this helps.
