I don't think it would hurt to put the dye in after u bleach your hair. I color my hair as offend as I need it. You shouldn't have any problems..

My hairdresser did a light shampoo and conditioner after application and rinsing of perm because my hair is color treated (weeks before perm). Then I waited 48 hours before shampooing again. I have not had any problems with smell and I am overly sensitive to offensive odors. Perhaps you permed too soon after color treating your hair? Or, your hair is thin and less time is needed to be in rods. Why are you perming so soon (3 months) after last perm? My hair grows fast and is thick but still have lots of body and perm left and it has been at least 6 months or longer since I permed. Hope this helps.

I have never experienced any smell after I wash my hair, so about 3 days after the perm. I know that you need to follow the instructions carefully, including the full neutralization step and a thorough rinse after you take the curlers out. I rinse for a full 2-3 minutes with running water at the very end.

I am black and it works wonders. I also use African shea butter and it makes the perm last longer between touch ups.

No you can continue to store it in a cool place that is listed on the bottle, because it is a semi-permanent formula. It goes straight on your hair, no need to mix anything else on it. With permanent hair color, what you mix, starts to ruin after an hour or so. Bleach especially cannot be kept, if you are using a box bleach, because it starts to become combustible. But these, and MOST I can't speak for all, CAN be kept because I will keep mine for touch ups or add them in to a white conditioner to make it more vibrant. But I would buy them directly from Manic Panic or a Sally's.

If you recently colored your hair, would wait at least 15 days before using a chemical straightener. Also, would wait for 3 months in-between chemical straightening.

I do a perm after I have cut my hair so it is similar to the picture on the box except I have no bangs or shorter areas. I think I use almost 50 of the mid-sized rollers. My hair is long enough to get rollers on the sides and back. Since I am slow at rolling I do not apply the permanent mix until I am finished. I even add a few drops of water to compensate for the fact that my hair has dried a bit. I drop the rollers on the top so they are not rolled all the way to my scalp. I have plenty to thoroughly saturate each roller/curl. My hair is fine but dense/ thick but not coarse. Hope this helps.

You should leave the perm on your hair according to the directions. If you don't have the directions, which i'm assuming is the reason for your question, you don't want to leave the perm in your hair any longer than 20 minutes according to your hair type. Please make sure you have not washed or scratched your hair or scalp as this does not help the process and can cause abrasions or scars in the scalp. If you have washed your hair, I would wait at least a day or two for best results. If you have sensitive skin you may want to leave the perm in a shorter period of time. 15 or 20 minutes is pretty good. You also want to make sure that you start around the edges of your hair line first and work your way through the rest of your hair, making sure to part your hair in sections. 4 sections is best, it will help you to go through your hair quickly. Don't use the product directly in your scalp at first. Apply the product to the edges of all your hair first and then, if your scalp is not burning apply the rest of the product to the scalp as you go back through your hair to apply the rest of the product. Make sure to use gloves for skin protection and vaseline if you have it or the clear jelly that sometimes comes with the product. Apply the clear jelly or vaseline around the entire edges of your hairline. Example: if you have vaseline it will work fine, just take a medium helping and spread it on your face at the hairline and around the ears incase product gets onto the skin. this will keep you from burning the skin with the product. I hope this helps and I hope it wasn't too much information. I enjoy helping if I can. Good luck with straightness.

technically yes, make sure it's a light color you get or the color isn't going to show up. I think it's too fragile to hold up to bleaching/coloring multi-step processing. I'm not affiliated with the company or anything, so I could be wrong. this is based on my personal experience with the extensions. I wasn't able to use them more than a month before they were beyond repair.

I always color my hair (L'Oreal - Medium Ash Brown) but I time it so that they are a week apart. I do it this way upon the advice of my stylist. Since I color my hair every 3 weeks, I've colored it before and after a treatment but It doesn't seem to matter in which order I've done both processes. I don't think it effected how long the treatment lasted and coloring definitely did not dry my hair out.

I would bleach first, so your color is even. The splat bleach works very quickly so keep an eye on it. My hair was a light brown and it only took 25 min. for it to come up.

It depends upon what your natural color is. If it is far different at the roots, that part of your hair will be a different shade after you apply the color.

If you have ever been and had your hair colored in a salon you will note that toning is always done at the basin on damp hair. There are reasons for this. Your hair is so porous after bleaching, you don't want to do it on dry hair.

Temporary. Depending on how long it stays in your hair, it stays it's color longer. I've had it stay black ( in my hair ) for about 3 weeks before having to do touch-up areas. I don't buy anything else, this stuff does it's job.

This product is really good! It will stain anything. It catches on better on bleached hair of coarse. If your hair is not almost confused as a light brown colour then you should be okay. It should get on pretty well and last long enough! Maybe a little more than two month. Just make sure to apply it correctly! Good luck�
