what do i do...my hair is extremely damaged from all the hair coloring i put on it..., what do i do?

Question

I have colored my hair at least 4 times and it is a mess. My scalp hurts and my hair keeps falling and i also cant deal with the falks. It looks soo dead. I know i can buy those expensive deep conditionings but my mom is like, no way. I have a major problem and dont know what i'm going to do. Does anyone know a homemade recipe to fix this. I dont know what else to do... =[

Answer 1

The damage has been done. The hair is a living organism and no amount of conditioner is going to fix it...it would be like trying to "raise the dead". Stop coloring and either cut it into a real short cut that you like, or if you want to keep the "illusion" of long beautiful hair, keep trimming it an inch or so every month until you get rid of all the "murdered" hair. The only thing deep conditioning will do is to make healthy hair look even healthier. You might as well go ahead and use a commercial conditioner at least so you can get a comb through it. And stay away from the blow dryer...the heat is what's making your hair take it's final swan dive out of your scalp.

Lesson learned, huh?

Answer 2

I would recommend going to a salon for advise as your case sounds more severe then just a little dryness. I used to use haircolor that you buy over the counter and do it myself and my hair got extremely damaged from it. I now only go to salons and have my hair colored. I also do a Malibu treatment at the salon before each coloring which is a deep conditioner it runs around $15. My hair now is very healthy. I wish you the best of luck and next time go to a salon for your hair coloring it is a world of difference.

First of all, you will need to get your hair trimmed. Get rid of those tangly dead dry ends.

This may sound gross, however, the next time your mom cooks bacon or chicken keep the pure grease. Heat it in the microwave not too hot rub it in your hair. Wrap in a warm towl and leave it sit for as long as you are able. Doing this once a week will help your hair. Also, start taking vit. e.
