My hair is naturally a 'soft' black, or a brown-black. I have never had it significantly lightened; the most dramatic thing I've done is red highlights. But in two weeks I'm going to have my hair lightened all over to a caramel/dark blonde shade--think Beyonce/J.Lo. I decided I want this summer to be one of major transformation and I really want to have some fun with it, so why not start with my hair? I have plans to keep the blonde for the summer, transition into a deep, rich red when fall comes, and probably keep that for awhile longer. I've wanted to go red for years. Anyone here have experience with major hair color changes? Got any tips for me? My hair is naturally very curly and the texture is fine and soft.

I don't have any tips (sorry) but I just wanted to say good luck and have fun ! I have soft black hair too and I have yet to put color in it since I've been natural, so I'm looking forward to seeing what other naturals say . I want to take the plunge but a huge part of me is afraid I'll mess my hair up lol.

Hey Kayjacks! I can see that your hair is pretty defined, in your profile picture? What do you do, to get that texture My hair is pretty nappy, but soft and I don't know how to define my curls?

Hey yg ! I just do braid-outs and twist-outs or perm rod sets in my hair mostly. The products that you use can make a huge difference too have you tried gel? I use water, oil (coconut is my preferred oil), a hair butter/gel by camille rose naturals, and eco styler gel.
