Yes, I colour my hair, I have been doing it since I was 15. The very first time I coloured my hair I coloured it black without telling my parents. They got home from getting groceries, my mom saw it, asked if it was permanent, I said yes, and she said you are SO grounded lol. When I went to Hair Styling College at 18 I coloured it red, blonde, purple, blue, purple with pink streaks, purple with black streaks, black with blonde streaks, and jet black! Now that I am older and have a child I usually just colour it either plum (dark purplish colour) or red. My hair is brown naturally but I don't like it, it's a bland brown without many hi-lites.

When I dye my hair I use Herbal Essence. Usually I try for a red color, my hair being a light brown with red highlights. I'm using Sun In now, it turns my hair a pretty coppery blonde. I use Aussie conditioner. It's pretty good or sometimes I use Mane n Tail conditioner.

I have been dying my hair since I was 17. I used to just use peroxide to make streaks but now I actually purchase a box of hair color and do it myself. I naturally have dark brown hair with quite a bit of gray (I am only 32). Right now it is dark Auburn. I have always been doing my hair one shade of red or another. I have had it blond, black, blue black, streaks, highlights, and frosted. I use Herbal Essences most times and it never dries my hair out. I use all of the conditioner that comes with the hair color. When I bleached my hair it was so dry like straw, I used Avon's conditioner for color treated hair and within a week it was nice and soft again.

I have never tried the Avon conditioner.
I too prefer the reds. I just did a golden born this time though. That is what prompted the question. I was dying my hair! I didn't like blond either. Too dry and I just don't like blond on me.
Thanks for your response!

The number of gray hairs on my head is already alarming so I colored it several times already, first with deep brown, then chesnut brown and most recently a combination of chesnut and burgundy. I noticed my hair becoming drier so I use lots of hair conditioner.
