So I took the plunge. I bought a box of Clairol Textures & Tones Bronze and colored my hair!
The result was not bronze at all, but I expected that. I ended up with reddish brown streaks and I like it a lot.
I may go lighter in the future, depending on how my hair does. It didn't change my texture at all, which I was afraid of. It seems to be very gentle.

Now for the product rave:
AUSSIE MOIST IS THE TRUTH!!!!!!!
Yall weren't lying. It was on sale with ECBs at CVS this week, so I got two of them, and I am going back to get more later today. After I rinsed out the color, my hair was a hot tangled mess. It was almost like my strands were fused together. I applied the Aussie Moist and the tangles melted away. My hair was so soft and smooth and easy to detangle. This stuff is thick but it gives a ton of slip. Best of all, it's cheap!
I think I've found my staple deep conditoner.
As for my husband...some people had asked me in my anniversary thread how my husband felt about my hair now. I asked him how he felt now that a year had passed. He said that he sees why I did it now, because I can do a lot more with my hair. He also said that I seem happier and more carefree now. I asked him if he had any favorite styles, and he said he basically likes everything but the afro. His favorites are the twistout and when I use my stocking to choke the afro back (he meant puff
).
So there you have it. My dh is now a believer.
Did I cram enough into this thread?
