ok every year I relax my hair before summer. I always buy this relaxer this time when I open it up the directions say not to use on color-treated hair at all. Target won't take it back because it is open. UGG! I dyed my hair back in November what do I do? Am I out $8.99? And where do you find the one for Color-Treated hair?

You can still relax it, you just have to put on a filler first so that your hair doesn't become over processed.

I have never used Dark & Lovely. For the last 5 or 6 years I have used Motions products. I do have a friend that uses Dark and Lovely and it does work on her hair very nicely. Are you switching up relaxers? If so, try not to do this so frequently because your hair does get somewhat attached to a certain relaxer. I hope that it works for you and that my information helps you.

I would go ahead an use it anyway. I used the Olive Oil kind that comes in a green box. When I rinsed the relaxer out I saw a little bit of red hair dye in the drain, but my hair didn't fall out or anything.
If you haven't dyed your hair since November, and you don't relax it until, lets say...April or May, you should be fine. I think that the warning applies to hair that has been color treated recently (6 weeks or less).

They tell you that as a precaution but if you dyed it back in November it should be safe to relax :-) just test it on a small area in the back first but I have dyed my hair and then relaxed it within weeks of each other and my hair was and is just fine
