Anyone dye their hair on P2?

mybigbutt · 08-03-2010, 10:48 AM

My roots are atrocious. I am planning a long round and don't know if I can wait that long.

Anyone have any experience? I don't know what they put in the dye. I would get it done professionally because home results don't work for my hair. It's too dry to begin with.

I can handle one loss day because of it, but any more than that - no.

I did! I didn't see a problem. And I will have to do it again in a week or so with the way my hair grows.

I did last week. I lost an avg of .5 each day last week so I'm saying it had no impact on my losses and I used the conditioner that came with it as well :blush: Not sure if it had oil in it or not but I just went for it and hoped for the best.

Thanks girls, I just made my appointment!

ChristiansMom · 08-03-2010, 03:19 PM

I need to get mine done too.. so glad you asked!

I recently discovered henna and I

it. No more expensive trips to the salon just for my roots, and my hair looks just as good or better. I do the roots about every 4-5 wks, and henna has a lot less chemicals than regular hair dye. The henna makes my hair so shiny and the color is great.

Thin, can you tell me more about henna? Is it a rinse or do you apply like hair color? Does it work for all hair colors? I guess I could google it, but any info you have would be great. I'm kinda cheap:blush: and hate my salon bill when that time comes!!

cookie34 · 08-07-2010, 08:12 AM

I am interested about the henna too!

Healthy and Happy · 08-07-2010, 06:14 PM

Sure, it's called Surya Henna Brasil Cream Hair Coloring & Hair Treatment. I use it in dark brown. I buy it online for 8 bucks and some change, and the reviews on it are great. Also, I have long, thick hair and one bottle lasts me 2 treatments! You can't beat $4 per color, when I used to pay $60!

ETA... forgot the best part, no chemicals!

I dyed my hair and didn't have any stalls or slow downs! As far as the cosmetics or shampoo/conditioner, I just made sure my makeup was oil free and I bought shampoo&conditioner from the health food store (also oil-free).

mybigbutt · 08-09-2010, 07:46 AM

I have an appt to get my hair done tomorrow afternoon. I'll let you guys know how it goes with my weigh-ins.

mybigbutt · 08-11-2010, 05:22 AM

After getting my hair dyed yesterday, I am down .2 today.

BUT, my hair came out BLACK. It's supposed to be dark brown. She used the level 4 like usual, not sure why it came out so dark this time. Ugh.

walkingwoman · 08-11-2010, 10:08 AM

MBB, did you stick with the black or have her correct it? Inquiring minds wanna know

mybigbutt · 08-11-2010, 10:17 AM

I'm sticking with it. There isn't much they can do to lighten it that won't damage my hair further, is there? My hair is dry and coarse to begin with.

mybigbutt · 08-11-2010, 10:18 AM

I am getting compliments on it. Not sure if they just want to make me feel better about looking like Morticia or not though!

walkingwoman · 08-11-2010, 10:45 AM

I'm sure it will just take some getting used to. I don't think I'd do anything to it unless you really, really don't like it. I bet it's a nice change. I'd like to go darker but haven't had the nerve to do it. Hmm. Maybe I will do that this fall.
