***2010 COLOR TREATED SUPPORT THREAD***

[Miss AJ]

Whether you are relaxed/texlaxed, natural, dreaded, texturized, or WHATEVER, this thread is for all the color treated ladies out there! I searched and found a support thread for the colored (pun intended lol) from '08 but it died at 4 pages. Hopefully this one stands as strong as all the other support threads. I searched and found a few threads, but I'm still in the process of getting them all together, but if you find some I missed or that you think should be included, just shoot me a pm and I'll add it. Also, if you all don't mind, please fill out the lil survey I put together so we can help each other and lurkers alike:

DIY or salon:

What brand do you use (or brand used by stylist if done at salon)?:

HIYA!! I'm a natural and my hair isn't colored....YET! I plan to color (myself), but I promised myself that I would wait until I was at least a year natural (one month and a half to go yay me!!) before I did so. I also promised myself that I would do more research on the matter. I've done several searches and gotten some information that way, but, your thread is RIGHT on time! I will be subscribing so I can keep up with what works for others and what didn't....so when my time comes, I can make a more "informed" decision with the knowledge I'll surely gain here.
