My hair color didnt work can I recolor it?

Question

I colored my hair like 3 days ago and the hair color didnt work becuase I have relaxed hair and I didnt notice it said not to use on relaxed hair. Only the roots got colored.
I recently bought hair color that can be used on relaxed hair. I was wondering if I could use that without my hair falling out

Answer 1

well sinced you have relaxed hair i would wait a week or two.. hair color is a chemicle which can make relaxed hair dry and brittle and make it break.. (it has happened to me) what i used when my hair was relaxed (i cut it all off and is now natural) was sebastian celophanes.. it gives it some color w/o the amonia or peroxide and it actually helps your hair. they have sooo many colors and you can get them online.

Answer 2

I reccomend that you wait awhile. If you have relaxed hair and you tried putting in hair coloring that didn't work and you try putting hair coloring again, then you are at high risk of your hair breaking out. You don't want to put too many chemicals in your hair. A good time to wait is about two weeks to prevent any chance of brekage

I had a relaxer put in my hair then waited 3 weeks and colored my hair coloring and my hair broke out so bad that I had to get it cut even and short.

Can I color my relaxed (or curled) hair?
A: Sure you can! But double-processing is tough on any hair, and double-processing relaxed hair can be especially dangerous. The best recommendation is usually not permanent hair color. Use semi-permanent color instead, or use an "in-between" type color, which doesn't have any "lift," but can last almost as long as permanent hair color. It is best to consult a professional stylist for coloring relaxed or curled hair.

Q: How often can I color my hair?
A:
Hair can be colored as long as the hair fiber is strong and the scalp is not sensitive. If hair is spongy or breaks easily, use a semi-permanent hair color formulated for damaged hair and begin a rigorous conditioning program. Generally, touch-ups should be done every four to five weeks, depending on the growth of the hair. If you begin to get the "zebra stripe" effect, you know you have waited too long!

Answer 3

You can color your hair again but you may not want to apply the 2nd hair color to your roots due to they may end up darker then the rest of your hair since the 1st color only took there (you may want to do a small section to sample it). Definately make sure you have a very moisturizing daily conditioner.

Answer 4

Just wait awhile before you recolor it because coloring it over and over can dry it out and make it brittle. So wash it and wait for a couple of days
Depending on what type of hair you have, try some oil products to keep your hair moist so it doesnt dry out

Answer 5

You can definately treat your hair again. You have to do a lot of damage before your hair starts to fall out. That being said, your hair may dry out a bit and require some extra TLC to get it back to a healthy skily texture. I recommend Nuetrogena products...they have a line of Triple Moisture products that saved my hair after a so-called hair stylist destroyed it.
