Good conditioner for dyed natural hair????

[stephluvshair]

Hi ladies.. Quick question. Can anyone offer some shampoo (non sulfate) and deep conditioner (moisturizing) recommendations for colore treated/dyed natural 4a/3c hair. My is extremely dry after dyeing with Bigen black. Thank you.

Before dying your hair, was there a conditioner that REALLY moisturized your hair? I would try that if I were you. The conditioners and shampoos that are geared towards color treated hair have an additional boost of moisture to prevent breakage. But if you already have a conditioner in your arsenal that is uber moisturizing, that is all you need.

 

[Je Ne Sais Quoi]

Be real careful with that bigen black. Be mindful of not going into protein overload.

 

[stephluvshair]

Yes... I was heavy on the protein before i asked for you ladies help ... I have decided to cut back for the next four wks because my hair was feelin like straw.... I just need a couple of moisturizing conditioner suggestions

Bumping for more suggestions please

I really think one may be looking for that magical product but honestly there is none. I know this. My hair was bleached blond for a year +.

You may already have that product in your cabinet. If you don't then I suspect you generally havent found that product that worked when your hair was untreated.

Color treatment shampoos and conditioners typically contain additional lubricants (olive, jojoba, coconut oils etc.) which you can add yourself.

Good luck.

I am a color treated natural and I get the best results by:

Only co washing; I have found that even sls free shampoos are drying

Cowashing with rich conditioners such as: Giovanni SAS, PM the detangler, Aussie 3MM, aubrey GPB

LOC method to moisturize: KCKT leave in, teeny bit of grapeseed oil, then PM the conditioner

Bigen made my bangs look like Z shaped french fries. I had to wait until that stuff grew out and then cut it. It has a "texturizing" affect on hair.

I would suggest never using Bigen to dye hair.

For suggested conditioners? Keracare Humecto is very moisturizing and Mizani Moisturefuse. I would suggest using them with heat or sleeping with them in overnight. I really hope this helps. Dry hair is not fun and it leads to breakage. I went through it, so I understand. My bangs were stunted for about a year until I figured out it was the Bigen.

I dye my hair black and I use Wen and Aussie Moist.

lana gennatay what black hair color do you use? I have tried a few rinses but they never fully cover like Bigen. The Bigen can be very drying, but it covers gray beautifully.

I use this from Sallys.

Color Brilliance Permanent Liquid Hair Color

I found that most jet black box kits faded quickly and turned my grays purple and fades other parts of my hair to a dark brown. This one lasts.

gennatay do you use 10 vol or 20 vol developer? I've always used the creme, how is the liquid different? Do you prefer this over the creme hair color? Thanks

Wen or Hair One for cleansing

Kera Minerals DC
Silk Elements Megasilk treatment
Aubrey Organics HSR, WC
Curl Junkie Curl Rehab

I use liquid because I only use one color and it mixes better with the developer to me. I use 20 for basic gray coverage.

gennatay - Hi, I use Wella developer and Wella Black semi-permanent rinse. It works for like 2 weeks honestly and then I use a cover stick for the grays until I can repeat the process.

If there is a better solution, let me know. I'm too young to have gray in my bangs. (lol)

 

[outspokenwallflower]

I like PM Awapuhi Wild Ginger Intense Treatment DC. It makes my hair feel new after coloring; so soft and slippy, but strong.

I colored my hair last night with ION 20 base and ION medium brown demi-permanent. It covered the grays nicely. I use AO Blue Chamomile as my conditioner. My hair feels much softer.

Right now I am sitting with a mix of Avocado & honey. First time trying it. Will see how it works. Doubt if I repeat because I hate the mixing process.

I stopped using the semi permanent because I co-wash too often. You can use Henna/Indigo mix if you don't want to use permanent color. But I found that process to long and tedious (and messy)
