Can I see some pics of your hair? And how do you maintain your hair being colored? Did your hair get damaged or do you still color/highlight and have healthy hair?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I had my hair highlighted last year. There are pictures in my fotki. I didn't really have any problems but I've since had all the highlights cut out. They made my ends crispy and I had to trim more often. I don't think I'd get them again.

Well every six weeks I would do an aphogee treatment, followed by a dc (of course) and sebastian colourshines to seal in the moisture and protect the hair. I think the new sebastian cellophanes can be used in place of the colourshines. With that you can continue with your regular hair care.
ETA: This is my hair color two weeks after I got it done.
This is with the sebastians colourshines. I can't remember which color though. It was a red one though.
I should also say that my stylist put a clear cellophane on my hair once I got my color as well. I don't have any pics of my color with my natural hair. I felt like I couldn't see it much with my hair in it's natural state. Well not in pics anyway. I'm going to go for more color again at an aveda salon this time for something brighter.

I color my hair all of the time and I have never had any problems. The key for me is to make sure my hair stays conditioned and moisturized at all times and min. heat.

I keep my hair moisturized & I've introduced protein treatments as well. I LOVE color!

Your hair color is REALLY pretty. I'm thinking about doing my whole head.

Thanks ladies..all of you have beautiful colored hair. Is this permanent or non permanent color?

Mine is definitely permanent. Non-permanent color is no fun for me. It only shows up in the sun and I want to see it all the time.
I had highlights in my hair. It's growing out though (read: been slowly cut out with trims/cuts and the cuts/trims weren't because of the color 
).

I had highlights about a year ago. I tried to find pictures where you could see them good. When my hair was wet you couldn't really see them. But when dry it looked light brown/almost blonde. The color was called Buttercream.
I'm transitioning, and I get permanent color. I've never had any damage from it. My stylist does it for me. There's a pic in my siggy. I do a weekly deep condition. I think it helps.

There are some gorgeous heads in here! Color didn't treat my hair well, but then again, I wasn't doing what I was suppose to be doing either.

That color looks beautiful and I love your texture!

Yes, that was my probably before too. I washed only once a week- someties 2wks passed before I did and I didn't give my hair the moisture it needed. But I think I will definitely be better this time- thanks to all you wonderful ladies!
btw, your hair is absolutely goregous! I have been stalking your site... it's the inspiration I need to remain natural and not even think of getting relaxed ever again.

OK, color to me was the devil until I found out the one I was using was very damaging. I actually got a demi color which washes out in a few weeks if you poo much, which I don't. It is the fist time my hair did not get damaged from me coloring it myself. Unfortunately, I can't remember who makes it.

I had highlights. I got them done in Aug. 2007. I love them I plan on getting them redone when I have some money. I have pictures in my album (link is in my siggy, no pw needed) in my Aug. 2007 album.
