since ur hair is black, stick to the black colour its less complicated than other colours



use shampoo and conditioner for coloured hair. Loreal elvive is good. u can also use leave in conditioner or hair serum by Loreal too.



about the time for the colour, do the strand test and you'll get the exact time



its easy to do it t home, just follow the instructions



GOOD LUCK

I would go for the darkest shade they do. Maybe a ebony one. And leave it on longer than stated . I am a qualified haidresser.

dying gray is the hardest thing to do... if u use your own natural color which is black, it may turn out to be a greenish color. u have to go back to art and color basics sometimes whenit comes to using the right color. unless u are using one that specializes in gray coverage, u need to use a dark brown or something like that. the gray strands will have a tint to them after using any color that u use. as far as conditioner is concerned. if u are coloring use one for color treated hair and use a deep conditioner for dry hair. with the home colorin kits they come with conditioner and u need to also use another shamppo and conditioner to keep it soft and healthy.



strand test is a good idea for coloring testing and how long to keep it on and what the outcome will be.



for best results u should prob see a specialist the first time and then u keep up with the follow-ups

As the others said use a black hair dye.Many brands of dyes now come with conditioners in the box.Use a good quality shampoo,one that says for coloured hair and not a clarifying shampoo that will strip colour.Conditioning is important as well so maybe pick out a good shampoo and conditioner from the same brand.



You can always speak to the person at the cosmetics counter when you buy the dye or phone the number on the box and the company will answer all your questions.



As to the strand test..Nobody has the same time for leaving on hair dye.Some boxes say 20 mins but I have to keep mine on for 50 mins(after phoning the company and talking to them first!).Depending how long your hair is you might need two boxes of dye as well.



Make sure you follow the directions and do an allergy test with the dye as instructed on the box 24 hours before you use the dye.You might even ask someone to come over and help you the first few times as it's difficult to do the back of your head and sometimes there is a chance you can miss spots with the dye.



I use Clairol Hydrience and really like it and it covers my grey,also comes with conditioner for before and after you dye.



My hair is a bit wavy and very thick as well.



Hope this helps you and if you feel intimidated by doing it yourself you can always go to a professional and have them do it for you and then just do root touch ups when needed.
