now i do have a problem so if you have an answer it would be greeatly appreciated....
My relaxed ends on my hair is a 30 and my hair is black well off black around a 1b....what kind of dye would you suggest me using to dye my hair to the 1b black/off black color?
and whats the difference between demi and semi permanent? I would rather not use permanent dye because thats the cause of my hair breakage to begin with! thanks ladies in advance!!

I don't see your cornrow pics but I just wanted to answer your question about dyes. I was thinking that if dyes are too harsh for your hair why not use a black rinse to color your hair since it has no ammonia or peroxide?

I was thinking about that too but Im going on vacation to Cancun and I will be in and out the water...lol so i dont want hair dye running down my face or anything...
do you know of a rinse that will not run?

I've tried ms.clairol black rinse and didnt get hardly any running when I was in the pool but the process was a pain.And the rinse took a year to washout!!!
I put the rinse in on damp hair
sat under a hooded dryer for 20-25 min under a plastic cap
shampoo with color specfic shampoo first warm to hot water 2x
then washed with cool water
then conditioned, a must
styled as usual

I like your sew-in, you do them yourself right? When are you coming to MD so you can hook me up! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Oh, sorry I can't help with the dye question, but from those pics you can't see the difference in colors.
