hair dyes

[mahogany66]

I currently have reddish brown on the top and black in the back and sides. I want to go back black.. Do y'all think a semi-perm black would work on the reddish brown color? I'm thinking I may have to do a permanent color.

Also, my stylist used affirm moisture permanent color, I cant find this product anywhere and I want to do it myself. Can you guys give me suggestions on other brands.. THANKS

Are you talking about a mix or non mix semi permanent colour? Either way, I think it would work. But if it's a non mix/rinse type, you might need to keep re-doing it when it washes out though. This won't harm your hair though. They are actually supposed to be conditioning.
It's only dyes with ammonia or hydrogen peroxide that do the damage.

Thanks, maybe I'll try a mix semi/perm color first. Do you have any suggestions on which brand I should use?

Sorry, I haven't got any product recs. I only tend to use dyes that will wash out, I don't like the commitment

ETA: I have heard that 'Textures and Tones' and 'Bigen' are supposed to be good, but they are permanent not semi perm.

Thanks mahogany66.
I just looked at your album and I love the red colour on your hair, looks great. But It'll look great black too
Good luck with the dyeing, hopefully someone can help you find the Affirm colour, or a good semi permanent.

hey, I colored my hair yesterday with Texture and Tones Silky Black , it came out FABULOUS.. I will post pics in my album soon. I was going for the semi- color but I was told that my hair may turn green unless I added a reddish color too it. .. I didn't want to take the chance and mess up my hair..
