Dye & Relaxed Hair

My hair is relaxed, and it's breaking :( but I want a lighter color... Can I dye it? It's been my natural color for years now. Should I treat it first? Deep condition for a few months? Please suggest products & tips.

I would strengthen it first before coloring. If you don't expect your hair to fall out.

Deep condition for a few months, you should do a protein treatment every 6 weeks but you can do deep condition every week or every other week. I use ORS replenishing for my deep condition. If you don't mind, may I suggest adding some colored weave in your hair until its strengthened.

Protein treatment and don't over do it. it can have the opposite reaction.
