Alot of people want to have that sun-streaked look this time of year. Well to go to a salon can cost a fortune. Well why not do it at home with these tips it makes it a cinch:
1. Style your hair first
Always apply highlights to dry hair and make sure your hair is styled the way you would wear it normally. This way you can see just where to put the highlights so the complement your hairstyle.
2. Color outside the lines
Highlights don't have to be perfect, make some strands thicker, and some take to the root while others stop before reaching the bottom
3. Practice with Hair Conditioner
Before putting the bleach in your hair apply some conditioner on the applicator and practice making a few fake highlights just to get the hang of it. Be sure to work on areas where you don't plan on placing real highlights and once you get the hang of it then apply the bleach.
Also remember to test a small area before doing a large area. (you don't want to end up with orange hair stripes!!!) And follow the instructions on the box as well.
Take it from me I am a long time at home hair dye person and it can be rewarding, However if you do one step wrong it can make for dire results. (lol purple hair in Jr High is just not fun)
