    Using hair relaxers and permanent hair colors will damage your hair. If you want to go from black to a chocolate brown color, you will need to use a hair lightening product to achieve results. You would have to pre-lighten your hair and deposit the desired color, or you can use a high lift color. However, this could cause hair breakage on relaxed hair. To avoid ruining your hair, I recommend that you let a professional hair stylist help you.
