cause more breakage [SEP] i have severely damage hair from constant bleaching i then color my hair black this mask causes more breakage and washes out the black dye which is weird because when i shampoo my hair i do not see the dye coming out nor when i use the dove conditioner i do love the smell not strong pleasant scent of grapefruit it did not soften my hair as other reviewers stated it might work for you but it did not for me
