What is the best hair color brand for minority women who relax their hair?

Help!! I am a Black American female with damage hair. I use a relaxer to straighten my hair, but December 2006, I started to use permanet color too (due to gray hair). Now I have damaged my hair using two chemicals.

1. Has anyone tried Dr. Miracle's hair products for damage hair?

2. What is the best and least damaging product in hair colors to use?

Thanks !!

Definatley Semi Permanents. Especially after relaxing your hair. The Relaxer chemicals have already opened up your cuticles which means the semi color is enough to sink a little deeper and last longer than usual. Permanent color is too strong because it also does the work of opening up your cuticle layer to deposit color. You don't need to double process like that. Sodium Hydroxide is a very harsh chemical and is sometimes taken for granted, it's nothing to play around with. Go to your stylist whenever you need color. Highlights are also not a good idea when you have relaxed hair.

Make sure to deep condition a lot.

Try semi-permanents. They are much more gentle on your hair. Go to a salon, a good hairdresser will be able to give you advice.

I don't know about the products, but something great to repair damaged hair is almond oil. Heat a little for about a minute, put just a few drops on the tips of your fingers and massage your scalp and also apply some on the tips. Wear a cap when you sleep and when you wash it in the morning, you'll see the difference.
