Anything you choose to use is OK, but it's a matter of what is best for your hair.

You can't strip a perm. Impossible. What will be stripped is the outer layers of your hair. The perm won't come off, though. Your hair will become more weakened, and prone to damage.

As for damage control, your perm is already taking a toll on your hair, so the worse thing Redken can do, most likely, is dry your hair out more.

For black hair, you can't deep condition too much, because that's what our hair needs. But I will say this, if you are washing your hair more than once a week, you need to fall back on that. The over drying is going to end up leaving you with more breakage than would normally be the case.

So wash once a week (with no clarifyiers), deep condition once a week/ or hot oil.

I use Humble...natural products for black/biracial hair.

Redken is fine to use. You can use any shampoo, it doesn't have to be specifically for ethnic hair. Try Redken All Soft shampoo and conditioner, and Redken Heavy Cream deep conditioner (once a week). And yes, it's possible to deep condition it too much if your hair is oily...more than 2 times a week is too much.

Salon quality products are always color/chemical safe.

no, my sister uses it and we're Asian. i tried it and it didn't do much for me. it is not going to strip your perm, nothing will do that except for hair straightener or if your hair grows out by itself.

Redken Shampoo should be fine on you hair. You might want to get one that is for chemically treated hair though. Shampoos will not strip your perm as long as you've waited 48 hours. There IS such a thing as conditioning too much, so it really depends on the condition of your hair and how much of a 'deep' conditioner you are using.

If you are using a store bought product, it's not likely they're super conditioning. You have to try to get an even amount of protein and moisture in your hair. Some 'deep conditioners' are meant to be used once a week, and some you can use twice a week. Unless your hair is in REALLY bad condition I would stick with once a week. And if it IS in REALLY bad condition you can condition it twice a week for a week or two and then after that I would stick with once a week.

If you get a salon treatment, they can be good for up to a month. We have what are called 'cera-repairs' at our salon and it's not generally recommended to use them more than once a month. Now being as you're African American you may not feel the need to shampoo your hair as often as Caucasian people do, but it depends on the texture of your hair. Some African American women have, as I'm sure you're aware, super kinky hair that only needs to be washed once a month. Some more. If you only shampoo your hair once a month you can probably get away with it every time you shampoo.

As long as you don't shampoo everyday or every other day, You can deep condition it every 3rd shampoo or every 2nd shampoo until your hair is in good condition and then once a month should do the job fine. Good luck and I hoped this helped!
