i used that stuff about 2 weeks ago, and i'm wondering if it's too soon to dye my hair. it's dark brown and black right now and i want some blonde and platinum streaks. it says this stuff isn't good on hair that's already been bleached or double processed, but i was told that if i do the bleaching or double processing AFTER using that straightener, my hair wouldn't incur too much damage. is this true? or should i wait a few months?

i really cant answer your question, i personally think it would be very drying to do so much at once, but i really dont know.

i was just wondering how that straightning stuff works. I have very wavy, almost curly hair, and i am curious if it will make mine straighter, or if im better off going to a salon.
thanks!

it actually works really well, but it fried the tips of my hair a little

after bleaching i would deep condition, straighten and then deep condtion my hair again. a trim afterwards would also help to prevent further damage. 2 weeks break would suffice perfectly. just please be careful when straightening. my friend did it by himself one time and broke a lot of hair off. sometimes, based on the texture or durability of hair, its best to use relaxer geared towards children. most of this can be found at sallys or drugstores.
