1. You mentioned that permanent colors are damaging for our dry hair. I want to color to get rid of some gray. Is it safe to use and how often and when should I apply it? I am finding the semi-permanent color too temporary for me when washing as often as twice a week.
   
2. I would like to know what type of advice you can provide on coloring my hair and the affect it will have on your system and growing hair? I have grays that I cover about every 6-8 weeks, usually 2-3 weeks after I have applied a relaxer.
3. You said you recommend what type of dye? I use Posner Rejuvatone (salon formula color rinse- It has no peroxide nor ammonia) It rinses out gradually average of 4-6 shampoos.
   
4. I was just reading your website and noticed that you recommend Bigen hair color - what color do you use?
5. I noticed you recommended Bigen for relaxed hair, but what color product would you recommend for natural hair? I've read your books and you are against self-relaxing, but what is your opinion about doing color at home?
6. Since I'm 50 years of age and have gray around the hairline, what can I use in between the time I should have the semi-permanent color replaced. Are there any safe crayons to color, etc?
7. I have worn my hair in a natural state for over three years. Due to the lay offs at MCI. I now find myself job hunting and I believe that my sis twist leaves a bad taste in the mind of the interviewers. So I have decided to get a perm and a dye job. I have ordered a perm that my girlfriend uses that comes from Africa. Its the only perm I have seen handle humidity. My only concern is the hair dye that you recommended. Bigen is a permanent hair dye.......I believe you said it was OK to dye right after a perm????? Usually this will cause extreme dryness and maybe breakage.....please clarify.
8. I would like to dye my hair as I am noticing a few grey hairs. I note from your website that you say you use Bigen to dye your hair. I purchased this recently but note that it is a permanent dye - is this ok? I thought using permanent dyes were damaging to the hair. Can you advise me as to whether this would be ok to use?
