i def over-washed when i first received the piece. i also spent a ton of time in direct sunlight one of the first weeks and wasn't using conditioner. i've learned since then. yes, it's turning much more blonde. the hair still feels pretty natural, i'm baby-ing the system now for sure.

it's not too bad being my hair is blonde as well, but i can notice - it's driving me crazy. i'll check out that back2natural stuff. i need a hair cut, so ill talk to my stylist today as well.

thanks for your help.
