Has anyone ever had their hair stripped?

I dyed my hair blk last summer and I am letting it grow out, my natural hair colr is lgt-med brown. I have like maybe 2 1/2 inches of black left on the tips and I am very impatiently waiting to get my hair highlighted, my hair stylist ( whom I trust) said that he could strip it and apply a color close to my natural color and my hair was strong enough for it, then I can later get my highlights. I had a bad experience w/bleach w/someone that really didn't know what they were doing but a bad experience is a bad experience. My hair is really healthy and I DO NOT want it damaged, has anyone succuessfully gotten their hair stripped w/o damage? I will mention that I am black and though I have a finer grade of hair its still black hair and I do have a relaxer. Should I do this or just be patient for 6 more months?

I have never had my hair stripped and I never will. Stripping the hair requires chemicals and will dry your hair. your stylist just wants to make a little extra money.

I think its almost impossible to strip your hair without severely damaging it. I would just wait it out, you don't want to risk damaging your hair that much.

No matter how you get your hair stripped, it's going to damage it a little bit. But with the products your hairstylist will use, they're MUCH better than a product you could get at the store. If you really can't wait, you can either cut off the last 2 inches or so and get it high lighted, or you can have him color correct it. If you do chose to have him color correct it, I would suggest using a deep conditioner once a week for about 3 weeks and then you can go get your hair highlighted.

Money hungry? Honey you are the one who asked him about this- he did not suggest it. You mentioned several times how you do not want to damage your hair. You should just be patient. You know how long it took to grow, don't take a chance. Wearing it up with the ends hidden will buy you some time. Best of luck.
