Why do I have different colour/texture hair strands from natural hair?

I have fine medium brown wavy hair. But for years I have been finding some black, thick wiry hair strands too, which I usually pull out from the root. Does anyone know what these are and why I have them? Why do I have different colour/texture hair strands from natural hair?
Many people have more than one texture on their head. Nothing to worry about, IMO. You pull them out and they'll just grow back. Why do I have different colour/texture hair strands from natural hair?
i have those too, i don't think they're anything to worry about.


i don't really know why they're there, but if you're concerned about it, talk to your hairdresser or someone.

    How do you take care of natural hair?

    I stopped getting perms months ago, but I need to know more about this whole natural hair care thing. Last night when I was putting some oil in my hair, I noticed that my roots were extremely thick, but my ends are thin. What's up with that? Are the permed ends growing out or something. I also have been using Mane and Tale, but I'm going to switch to Organic Olive Oil products. What do you use? How can I get my hair to grow long and thick?How do you take care of natural hair?
    Just so you know there is nothing organic about the organic olive oil products other than the word organic on the label. they use no certified organic products in their products and they can get away with this because cosmetics are not regulated by the USDA and thus the USDA organic program does not cover cosmetics. this means they can package nuclear waste and call it organic legally. You need to read the labels and look for the word organic in the ingredients and also make sure no parabens ( a known carcinogen) are being used





    http://www.organicconsumers.org has a campaign to make organic cosmetics really organic. they also have a list of who makes for real organic soaps, shampoos, make-up, etc..





    Mane and Tail is a horse shampoo but it is a terrific shampoo for human heads as well and is missing some nasty ingredients like parabens. Not organic but closer than a lot of products claiming to be organic.How do you take care of natural hair?
    Isn't mane and tale a horse shampoo? Perm is a bad solution, did you use Alkaline or Acid perm? Also, to take care of your hair, use Pantene Repair and Protect shampoo, and conditioner, and also a tub that is a replenish conditioning treatment.

    What is the best way to go back to my natural hair color?

    I have been dying my hair a dark golden brown color for about a year now. My natural hair color is a light golden brown. I haven't dyed it in about 4 months and my natural color is now visible. What is the best way to get it back to its natural color? ( I don't want to spend too much money getting anything done at a salon)What is the best way to go back to my natural hair color?
    Use Color Fix. Products like Color Fix, Color Oops, and Haircolor Remover Kit can be purchased at most drugstores. Color Fix and Color Oops will remove hair dye, restoring hair to its natural color. Haircolor Remover Kit by L'Oreal will strip hair of all dye and prepare it for re-tinting so that you may dye it another shade. Read the packages carefully and choose which is best for you.What is the best way to go back to my natural hair color?
    Either allow it to grow out, or get your hair cut.





    Or you could also ask the beautician to get the dyed hair around the same color as your natural color so there won't be such a dynamic transition in color.
    There are hair products in supermarkets that strip your hair of the previous colours you've had, leaving it all natural.

    If you dye your hair darker will it affect your natural hair color?

    Im thinking about dyeing my hair, I have a chestnutty brown, but I want to dye it darker. But im worried if I dye it I will permenatly skrew up my hair. Or can I dye it darker and then if I want my old hair color back can I dye it back to a very similar color?If you dye your hair darker will it affect your natural hair color?
    Well when hair grows out it will not grow to be the color you dyed it, so no not permanently. And yes you can dye it to a similar color if you want your natural color back.If you dye your hair darker will it affect your natural hair color?
    It won't REALLY **** up your hair if you go darker, it might just make it a little dryer.





    The only thing that'll totally ruin your hair is if you bleach it.


    Going darker is fine, you can always just dye it back to a color that is closest to your natural.





    If your realllyyyy worried about it, just go a little bit darker at a time. Its easier to go darker than lighter.
    If you dye your hair, it won't affect any new hair growing in but dyed hair is not as stable as natural hair. If you changed your mind and dyed it back to match your natural color, the dyed part would fade over time. They do make a shampoo and conditioner for dyed brown hair to help make the color last longer, though.
    once you dye your hair you can't dye it lighter, unless you remove the existing hair color (you'll have white hair) by that you'll damage your hair and it would look frizzy and not healthy since the color has been removed with all the other natural healthy oily things in your hair.





    you just have to cut the old hair
    it will not affect you're natural color that bad, but if you want you're old hair color back just go to a salon and get you're hair ';stripped'; it removes all the dye.


    orrr! cheaper, just dye it back close to the old color.!
    my natural hair colour = brown


    my current hair = black





    tbh..


    ifyou dye your hair..


    its really hard to get back normal


    it does grow back..


    but.. its not the same its darker


    blacker





    if you like your natural colour..


    dont dye black


    or get temporary dyes (=
    if you dye it it is very difficult to get your color back... you would have to lift it (bleach) and then color it... and possibly tone it....





    once you dye your hair dark you cant dye it a lighter color...
    Hmm.. I have heard of some cases working, and others not really working. I know for sure that if you grow out your dyed hair, it will return to the normal color.
    nothing will permanently screw up your natural hair COLOR except for grays...but bleaching n dying might make it unhealthy
    Any chemical component you use on your hair will have adverse affect... even if the comapany says it is not harmful to your hair...
    nope it wont effect ur real hair color n if u want the color u dyed ur hair out cuz u don't like it u will have to go to a hair salon
    duh!!! dye=u gonna DIE
    once u die ur hair its hard to get the regular color back i should no

    How long will it take for me to get my natural hair color back?

    I have an inch already of my natural hair showing which is a dish water blonde. The rest is a dark brown. How long will it take for my natural hair color to be at the top of my shoulders?How long will it take for me to get my natural hair color back?
    Quite a while. It will probably fade over time, and also if you let your natural hair grow out, you'll have insane roots. Just let it grow and usually hair grows like, an inch per month? So you can do the math.

    Is it possible to go from chemically relaxed hair to natural hair?

    ....without chopping the relaxed part off? And please don't go into detal on how relaxers are damaging, I already know that.Is it possible to go from chemically relaxed hair to natural hair?
    no once you get a relaxer, it permanently straightens your hair. Only way to get it back to its natural state is to grow out the ';new'; hair. If you dont want to cut it all off at once, just keep trimming the ends and dont get any more relaxers. That is called transitioning. It will be easier to keep your hair untouched (braids, curls) to let your hair grow without putting stress on it.

    yeah.... u just grow it out. it takes a while though and can look really messy. u have to comb it, the straight part and the new growth so that it doesn't pop out.
    You can do it gradually with braids and weaves. If you leave it out, having half your hair permed and half natural looks a little tacky. If you don't want to do a ';big chop';... go with braids, weaves, or wigs. Braids are my choice
    No there is no way to remove the relaxer from your hair without cutting it off. if you dont want to cut it off yet, and you want to grow out your natural hair first, the best way is to stop relaxing and transition with braids, cornrows, or sew in weaves. sew in weaves seem to cause my hair and scalp the least stress. visit www.nappturality.com and browse the forums for hair tips from other people in various states of natural-ness.
    Well, generally chemical relaxers wear off over time - around 6 weeks - 6 months, depending on your hair type and how porous it was before the treatment.


    If it doesn't, you could try heat curlers, which may eventually put some of the spring back into it.
