What should I do, perm or color first?

Answer by  mackenzie56 (16)

It is always a good idea to perm the hair, wait about two weeks, and then color it. The perm solution contains chemicals that can cause hair color to fade and is generally more damaging to the hair.

Perm your hair first before you color it. Perming one's hair after coloring can strip hair of the hair dye.

Perms can be known tostrip out color. It would be best to do the hair color first, wait about one week, and then go ahead with the color. It is best to not do many chemical treatments on your hair, but some people do like to have perms and colors.
