When I got my hair colored, I came home with a fried spot near my roots! HELP!?

I get my hair highlighted blonde about every 3 months. I go to a professional, and I'm usually very happy with the results. However, this time, I have a bad spot of fried hair on the top of my head where I part my hair. My hair is very, very straight and fine, so it feels horrible (crunchy!). Is there any way to get rid of this? Please help!

Once hair is damaged,it's damaged, but you can do things to make it look and feel better and prevent breakage. You should go back to the salon and complain and tell your stylist that you want free reconstructor treatments. That will help with the dryness and hopefully prevent breakage. Your stylist should NEVER overlap when she is doing the high lights,just the new growth should be done.

I haven't had reconstructor treatments,but I have heard allot about them. Apparently they help allot. It could mean the difference between short broken off hair and still having all your length. The treatments are protein and moisture. Report It

When I got my hair colored, I came home with a fried spot near my roots! HELP!?

The only way it will completely repair is to cut it .. But I would go back to the stylist and demand your money back. I suggest using hot oil treatments and perhaps a leave in conditioner..((vo5)) or thermasilk

When I got my hair colored, I came home with a fried spot near my roots! HELP!?

It sounds like a chemical haircut, the volume used with the bleach was most likely very high therefore it burned some of the roots of your hair.

When I got my hair colored, I came home with a fried spot near my roots! HELP!?

I have had the same thing happen.. I used a conditioner. I have also used body lotion...in small amounts. I know it can also be very uncomfortable. The best thing tho is to tell your beautician, maybe they just got too busy to get to you sooner.

Good luck

When I got my hair colored, I came home with a fried spot near my roots! HELP!?

It sounds like she either left the color on too long or she shouldn't have put color in because you hair may have been damaged already. Go back to her so that she can give you a series of professional conditioning treatments

When I got my hair colored, I came home with a fried spot near my roots! HELP!?

Go back and show them and They SHOULD d a free conditioning treatment since it is thier fault.......if not demand a refund and make it clear u will not be back if they dont make it right

When I got my hair colored, I came home with a fried spot near my roots! HELP!?

try usingshampoos that will soften ur hair..cause it sounds like ur hair is burnt...and it kind of hard to get rid of burnt hair..try silkening shampoos and leave in conditioners..those should work

Should i non permanently color my hair black?

my hair is red, but i want to have the experience of non permanently dying it black, it comes out in 8-10 shampoo washes, so what would your suggestion be for brands, colors i should die my hair/highlight/streak, my hair?

Should i non permanently color my hair black?

I'd kill for another hair colour. Mine's dark chocolate brown giving the apperance of black. I think for the best possible outcome and answer you better go to a salon or to a stylist and ask this. Before someone gives you some very,very bad advice.

Should i non permanently color my hair black?

because its such a drastic change, u should probably get it done professionally.

Should i non permanently color my hair black?

Don't try it yourself if you're a first-timer! Go to a good salon and get it non-permanently dyed there. Don't risk it at home. Even if it is non permanent, you could have a non-permanent mutilated hair color!!!

Should i non permanently color my hair black?

STOP! Do not semi permanently dye your hair black when you have any coloring or highlighting or lightening stuff already in your hair. What happens is your hair becomes porous from the previous treatments and the black coloring permanent or not will get sucked up into the hair like a sponge. The effect can vary... hair with red and previously lightened in any way can turn GREEN when mixed with black. It wont wash out! This is an issue that we woman do not comprehend when wanting a change. Red is in all colors and what is taken out when dark hair is made blonde. Red will cause your new black hair to go green in maybe certain places especially your ends. If your hair is virgin hair and red you may have a shot at it but it will probably come out with red highlights. If you want to highlight your hair use thin strands and go bronze or copper colored. I suggest a hairstylist until you establish the color of the streaks you want to suit you.

Please heed my warning on the black semi-washout-stuff. You will be going back to school or work as a parrot.

Should i non permanently color my hair black?

Dnt do it as black takes all da natural pigment out of ur hair!!

Does anyone know how to "highlight" white hair to return some color with a natural look?

I've been coloring my hair since I prematurely grayed in my 20's. I let it grow out last year for my 50th birthday. I'm about 90% white. I look much older than my age and washed out. I was recently offered my senior citizen discount! I live in fear of someone thinking I'm my husband's MOTHER!

I want to add some color back with shades of blonde and light brown highlights.My beautician has never done it or seen it done. I'd rather experiment myself than pay that kind of money. I welcome uggestions on how. I'm not asking if I should.

Does anyone know how to "highlight" white hair to return some color with a natural look?

How about a reverse frost? Instead of having to take the color out....all you would have to do is pull your hair through the cap...then just put the color you want on it! You would need to look for some hair color or toner that would really soak into your hair. I have very stubborn gray around my face. I bought some hair color, and I'm going to do it myself this weekend.

Hope this helps...and good luck!

Edited to add....there are also hair coloring kits that you 'paint' the color on with a brush. I used that on my sister one time, and she loved it!

Good luck! Report It

go to the hair salon

That is an awesome idea. Don't stick with a color you don't like.

First, I would not reccommend doing it yourself. It seems like what you are looking for is more subtle and natural results and those can best be achieved through a colorist. If you get the right color, you won't have to go back too often for touch ups. So, find a colorist (someone experienced in hair coloring).

I would say that you should go with a pale blond, since your hair is white and that way the roots won't be obvious if they grow out a little. Go with a "single process" color, which is technically a temporary color but lasts a long time and gives your hair a lot of shine too.

Have her choose a pale ash blonde (if you have a cool skin tone) or a pale golden blonde if you have a warm skin tone. Once this single process color is in, your colorist can add some lighter highlights to make it look more natural and to make root growout even less noticeable.

It will look awesome!

What is the best thing to use to highlight your hair?

I saw this thing on TV that you can use to highlight your hair. I want to wear highlights in my hair at special occasions. I am graduating from 6th grade (elementary). I want to wear them there. Plz help!

What is the best thing to use to highlight your hair?

ADDITIONAL REPLY: YOU ARE PROBIBLY BEST OFF getting some type of :paint on" color effects you can find a wide selection at a beauty supply. Also places like Wal-mart might have some too.

First let me explain: highlights refers to the use of chemicals (color and/or Bleach) to permantly lighten your haircolor. However today there are many other types of "streaking effects" used some are called "lowlights" or a "reverse color weave".

Then there are some fun shampoo out products people can "paint" on their hair which come in colors like pink, red, black and so on. So it depends on what exactly you were thinking of (color) and what color your hair is now. as well as if you have any other chemicals on your hair (sun-in, perms, colors,) even if it was used a year ago its important to know. If you have a reg. stylist you should ask them if they can just help in suggesting something for you. Yes its complicated but you are talking about chemicals so be careful

What is the best thing to use to highlight your hair?

it's probably good to get a low peroxide like 20% or 10% mixed with the bleach, and check on it every 5-10min. i say this because the bleaching kit at some beauty supply stores sometimes can be very strong, there is also this product called Sun-In... i think they still sell at the Drug stores. if that doesn't work the next best thing is to go to a professional Hairstylist.

What color should i highlight my hair?????

i have very very dark hair its the darkest shade of black

and i was wondering what color of highlights should i get

and what color would look the best..

my hair is long.like around my back.

and should i also get layers???

What color should i highlight my hair?????

I am a professional so if you want it to look natural you never go over 3 shades lighter or darker. If your hair is very black like solid black you have a blue base, then I would go with a Violet colour it would look so beautiful. If you have what we call white mans black which is more like a brown black you will have a red base. In that case you can go with reds, browns whatever. If you want punk well all colours will work. Layers will depend on your facial shape. If your hair is very thick layers may not work because layers will give you volume. But you could still have them if you have your hair thinned out after. If I saw a pic of you I could give you better advice, and if I knew what you are looking for. But I hope this helps. The one way to know if you have true black would be if you are like Indian or something like that. Their hair is a true blue black.

What color should i highlight my hair?????

light reddish brown and i would get layers i think they are cute

What color should i highlight my hair?????

i think a deep brown with a hint of red looks great on dark hair, a nice auburn color with layers will look the best i think.

What color should i highlight my hair?????

hi i think pink and you should get layers it will look awsome!!

What color should i highlight my hair?????

maybe a caramel brown would look quite cute, get highlights under your layers though so you see flashes of colour, that way you don't get horrid re-growth, and the colour looks a lot quirkier that way!

What color should i highlight my hair?????

blond

What color should i highlight my hair?????

Blue or purple highlights look great on black hair. ;-)

What color should i highlight my hair?????

I think u should get a darker almost brown red, that's not 2 bright, but noticeable. Layers too. Layers take a lot of weight off ur hair if u have thick or long hair. It will look awesome when it's done. :)

What color should i highlight my hair?????

ok well you should get dark brown high lights but not to dark but anof to see them. and yes you should get them layered they would look HELLA pretty i have indian hair and there layer and yeah i freakin love my hair it looks so pretty and are you indian? im indian you go gurl if your indian.

Wella Kolestral. I used it when I had a real tight perm on top of dyed hair. It worked wonders. I wrapped my head and used a bonnet hair dryer.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

hot oil treatment. pick it up at rite-aid. worked great for my cousin and didnt mess up the color. if that doesnt work, go yell at your stylist.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

Go to a hair dresser and ask them what you can do to help it. That is the only thing i would do because if you tryed something to make it better, you could make it worse.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

try buying some shampoos and conditioners as well as leave on conditioners for perm colored treated hair they do make youre hair much better i've tried them before go to waltmart on any other pharmacy store

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

You can go back to the salon you had it done at and they will give you help, hopefully for free. It is their responsibility to make sure that your hair is healthy when it leaves, after they have done their work!!

Otherwise, a good solution is to use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Brush it with a paddle brush and then dry. If it is still crunchy, you really do need to go see the salon and get help from them. Ask for a refund if they refuse!

Hope this helps!!!

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

try a different shampoo, maybe one that helps color stay

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

It happens due to the chemicals that are used. I get some conditioning stuff that is called Queen Helene Professional Cholesterol hair conditioning cream. It is for dry, over bleached hair. It works wonders. I put it on my dry head and let it stay for about 15 to 30 minutes and then wash it. It takes about 3 times shampooing it to get it out, but it is amazing. Then I use a heavy conditioning cream once a week. Good Luck

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

You need PROTEIN you have probably over processed your hair and you need to use a shampoo and conditioner and a leave in also, that contain protein like Biosilk or go to Visible Changes at your mall if there is one and ask for any WELLA products that contain protein. This isn't going to be cheap.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

Try a hot oil treatment. Don't laugh but mayo helps too. The oils in it, slather it on dry hair, let it soak for about 5 minutes and then wash it out really well. Keep conditioning, maybe try some leave in, don't wash it everyday unless you have to b/c of oil. Don't over use products like hairspray, gel and mouse that contain alcohol and can dry your hair out. Instead try pomades and glosses. You could also try shampoo and conditioner for color treated hair.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

Good Shampoo and Conditioner that moiserizes (spelled that wrong lol.) your hair

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

I've never had my hair hi-lighted b/c I have natural blonde hi-lights but, anyway, my best answer is to shampoo and condition it really well... wash all the way to the scalp.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

Condition, Condition, Condition!! There are plenty of leave-in conditioners that you can use. Make sure to use shampoo and conditioner that are specifically made for color-treated hair. Also pick up some leave-in anty-frizz serum, there are plenty of different brands around. You can also pick some ultimate moisturizing conditioner, you can either use it instead of the conditioner after shampooing, or apply it to your damp hair once you are out of the shower.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

Sorry to say, I've had this happen. It's when you have too much highlights or too often, or the colorist used too strong a % of bleach. It's just dryness and damage. Using the best at-home treatment every 3-5 days can help. I like Bed Head's "Treat Me Right". It comes in a big tub and really softens it again. Try to stay away from hot irons and dryers for a while, and shampoo as little as possible.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

your hair is over processed and is now damaged and straw like. get a good treatment for your hair. Joico K PAK is fantastic. it has a reconstructor in it so when you use it the molecules in the treatment are working to repair the damage done. its also packed with proteins that are going to help as well. you can find it at most salons.

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

condition the crap out it, its very fragile right now and in danger of breaking. make sure it is very conditioned. stop the highlighting as soon as your past this point, its really not worth it when you consider the touch up work that has to be done. i think wha they did was over-process the top where the roots are, contact the salon!

Hair Question- Need help PLEASE?

get a good deep conditioning treatment or hair mask pronto, the highlighting makes your hair very dry because it destroys the outer layer of your hair in order to take out the pigments that make your hair darker. You'll also need to get a shampoo and conditioner that is moisturizing and make for color treated hair. A drastic tip would be to change your shower head to one that takes out the impurities in water that make it "hard". Soft water (water without the impurities) is better for hair and skin.

Hair stripped?

ok so two years ago i started getting my hair highlighted and now im wondering about getting rid of them all to get my natural color back. is that possible with getting my hair stripped? or will it cause too much damage?

Hair stripped?

the healthiest way would be just to let them grow out and not get them re done.. or just die your hair back to your natural color

Hair stripped?

Do NOT get your hair stripped I got this done %26amp; my hair is dry at the ends.I have to moisturize every other day %26amp; I wouldn't want that to happen to someone else.

Hair stripped?

you dont have to strip your hair at all. depending on what color highlights you have, all you have to do is fill in the missing pigment and color your hair its original color. stripping your hair would turn your whole head orange-its like bleaching the whole thing-damagine. getting rid of the highlights would actually be healthy for your hair. i do recommend that you go to a professional who knows color-that way you get what you want in the end. if you do it yourself you may mess up and leads to color over color which obviously not good for your hair. if you wanted to try it yourself, use a demi permanent or a semi permanent color to your natural -your hair was bleached to highlight it if its naturally black-so if you use a semi or demi on it chances are the highlights will soak up the color.

Hair stripped?

You can wait till your hair grows. Or you can dye your highlights to your natural color

Hair stripped?

I'm the same

but it kinda sucked fro me cause my hair was getting damaged

so you should just grow out you hair and then get it cut or you can just trim your hair every month

Wat should I do wit my hair???

I just got my hair highlighted and cut, the stylist used mousse while it was wet and sprayed it wit something and then put some oily stuff on it, she blowdried it and flipped the ends out but now I am afraid to wash my hair because I think that I won't be able to get my hair the way it was... wat should I do???

Wat should I do wit my hair???

Stop worrying about it so much you shallow cow.

Wat should I do wit my hair???

You're going to have to wash it at some point. Call your stylist and ask what products she used and what kind of brushes you will need to replicate the style. I never get my hair like my hairstylist does because they have blowdryers and hair straighteners that are much better than mine.

Wat should I do wit my hair???

call the stylist and ask her the products that she used and then go to the local store and see if u can get them and then wash ur hair and do it u can use a straighter too instead of a brush and blow drier ask the shampoo and condition as well sometimes if u get the right products it will help to get it the way u have it when they did it

Wat should I do wit my hair???

i think u must be careful when do something like that

Should i dye or highlight my hair?

I already have blonde highlights over my natural light brown hair.. but they're starting to come out %26amp; im thinking of getting more highlights to touch up or to have all of it dyed.. All of my friends said it would look good dyed but when my roots start showing i dont want it too look really fake and i dont want to have to keep dyeing it every few weeks.

So what would you reccomend..? and all of it would be done in a salon

Should i dye or highlight my hair?

If you don't want to dye your whole head of hair, I suggest getting a couple more highlights, so it looks more blonde.

Advice on whether to dye or highlight my hair?

I have thick curly hair and have never dyed my hair so I need advice. My hair is naturally dirty blonde but in the winter it gets a lot darker and I want to lighten it. Should I dye it all over or get highlights? What is the average price for each? Also, where can I go so I know they know how to work with curly hair b/c not every place does.

Advice on whether to dye or highlight my hair?

First time coloring is always best to highlight..It gradual and suttle.....Highlighting with foils will usually start at about 65.oo and up..Color all over would start at about 45...Ask around and call for a reputable salon colorist and one who has been in the business for awhile..Curly hair isnt tough to work with when your doing highlights...Its the cutting that is tough...

Advice on whether to dye or highlight my hair?

That usually happens with most peoples hair. In the winter it gets darker, and in the warmer months and summer it lightens. Sometimes people let it go dark in the winter. Like my friend would put blonde highlights in for the summer and then like a red or something for the winter. Your hair changes because of the seasons... no big deal. It usually costs around $60 or more for like color. Highlights are usually more sometimes but it also depends on if you get a full or partial highlight. Winter is almost over so I dont think you have much to worry about. If you spend a lot of time in the sun when Spring and Summer roll around it will get a lot lighter on its own. I dont know about places that dont know how to deal with curly hair. I dont understand why they shouldnt be good with that kind of hair... we learn everything in Cosmo. You should call around and ask any kind of question you have and go with the most knowledgable, and nice/caring person because they will most likely care about you and what they do to your hair and go with a good and reasonable price.

Advice on whether to dye or highlight my hair?

thats a nice culour .. my nat colour was dat but dont dye all your hair..have sections done ..not little hilights.. have more dramatic layering blond down mixed with your natural will look gorgous!

Advice on whether to dye or highlight my hair?

Should you color your hair??? Tough question as nobody can answer that except you. Hair coloring is expensive and a lot of maintenance.

As a hairstylist I recommend you talk to yours. But here is my advice.

As you probablly know your hair darkens as the sun is not as bright and the heat not as intense in the winter. An all over color is harder to maintain than a hightlighted weave.

The cost of color and highlights varies depending on the stylist. To color all over you're probablly looking at about $50 - $90, for highlights somewhere in the range of $75 and up.

To find somewhere that knows how to work with your type of hair. The best advice is to look for someone on the street that has your same type of hair that looks great. Ask her!!!!

Curly hair is hard to work with and most hairstylists will jack it up if not done right. Curly hair must be cut at an almost perfect 90 degree angle all over the the layers colapse upon themselves and you don't end up having an afro.

Good luck

What is the average cost in Connecticut for highlights?

I have shoulder length hair and just got my hair highlighted and trimmed (not a full cut) for $175.00. Is that the average you are paying?

What is the average cost in Connecticut for highlights?

It all depends on where you got it done and exactly what they did. Most places here charge for the wash, the hair dyeing, the trim, and the blow drying.

I do think its a bit over priced, but I dont think its possible to get a your hair done at an up-scale salon in CT for under $100 bucks.

But if you would like some advice on where to go next time.... I would go to The JC penney salon in West Farms Mall. At first I thought they would do crappy, old lady , out-dated kind of hair styles...but they actually are really good, 2 of my aunts and my best friend go there and their hair alwasys looks great. They do awesome dye and highlighting jobs.

I Have my hair highlighted..?

I got it highlighted 3 weeks ago.When am I aloud to get it rehighlighted?Also,are you aloud to Highlight over a color,Or do I need to dye it back to my original color(Color Unknown to you)?

I Have my hair highlighted..?

Three weeks should be long enough to rehighlight it.....the only concern is that the new color may not come out the same when put on top of the first color (i.e. if you got blond highlights and then did red on top, the red might come out lighter or orange).

You don't have to go back to the original color first, but some people prefer to do that if they're trying to get a certain look.

Okay 1 more curly hair question....... have any of you ever highlighted your hair?

I really want to try highlights for the first time but I am afraid this will really dry my hair out since curly hair is already dry. Has anyone had any good or bad experiences with this?

Okay 1 more curly hair question....... have any of you ever highlighted your hair?

Keep in mind that the more drastic the hair-color change, the more difficult the coloring job may be. Don't go more than two shades lighter.

At home, color should never be applied from the root to the end in one step. Color should be left on the roots for about 10 minutes, then extended to all of the hair for an additional 10 minutes.

If you highlight your curls at home, be sure to brush the highlight evenly and carefully from the root to the end before wrapping the hair in foil. If highlights are applied too quickly, the hair will not be properly covered. Most importantly, at least one-third of a curl has to be in the foil. "If a curl is fat or tight," Christo says, "and if not enough hair is picked up into the foil, the highlighting will not work properly." The right coloring techniques also affect how your highlights look. Be sure you understand what's needed should you color and highlight on your own.

When highlighting, don't do too much of the hair, and don't highlight near the hairline, Christo advises. It's best to highlight half an inch from the hairline, so if mistakes are made they won't show.

If you want to color or highlight at home to cut down on expensive salon visits, talk to your colorist, says Christo. Ask for advice on shades, brands and techniques. And, he adds, there's some good news about curly hair: It doesn't show the roots as much, so touchups are needed less often. You might need a touchup for single-process color every six to eight weeks. Highlights for single-process color can be redone every five to six months.

To avoid drying out your hair, shorten the application time. "Take the time from the package instructions and reduce that by one-third," Christo says. "Check the hair with a comb; if the color looks good, rinse it out. In the salon I never color for more than 20 minutes and I always achieve wonderful results."

A single teaspoon of olive oil added to a color or highlight right before applying it at home can create healthier conditions for the hair and scalp.

Finally, Christo says, lush curls and waves need attention and regular conditioning. "As long as the hair is healthy, a woman can achieve any color she desires." His salon recommends a silky cream called Deep Therapy Masque, which he applies for 8 to 10 minutes. You can also look for any deep-hydrating product that will keep color-treated hair healthy and full of body.

Anytime you lighten your hair you run da risk of damaging it because da chemicals used to highlight work by stripping color off your hair. If you deep condition on a regular basis and go to someone who is a real colorist, you should be okay without drying or damaging your hair. But stay away from do it urself highlight kits and wannabe hairdressers. Better to pay da extra money and get it done right den 2 have ur hair lookn lyk da scarecrow in da Wiz! :)

What is the difference between single process color, foil, and partial highlights?

I am considering having my hair highlighted. I have very dark hair and want something natural looking, yet striking and so my grey hair isn't noticed. I want it to look professional as I am a 32 yr. old mother, wife, administrative assistant and a Southern Living At HOME consultant. I don't want to look like some crazy college kid.

What is the difference between single process color, foil, and partial highlights?

You should cover your (antique blonde) w/ your natural color either foil it or all over, and choose a second color w/in two shades different from your nat. and weave it in as well, or if you color it all over choose a color 3 to for shades diff, and foil 4 to 5 foils on the top for the nat. affect.

single process is= all over color.

foil is my fav, it is placed where (YOU) want it to be.

partial foil is mostly to cover the top and sides of your hair.

What is the difference between single process color, foil, and partial highlights?

you should go for some auburn highlights. they make your hair have a subtle summer streaked look, while stil being age efficient and natural.

Is it normal that a hair stylist can't get the right color the first time?

The past 3 times I've had my hair highlighted by this girl I've had to go back the next day to have her adjust my color to what I really wanted the first time. I know it's not easy getting the perfect color-but this time she sent me home with hair that's kind of orange and I really don't like it! I don't want to spend more money but I wanted it blond! I even took a picture...she mentioned my "brassy undertones" when she was washing my hair out, but I guess she wasn't "displeased" with it enough to make it look better. What would you do?

Is it normal that a hair stylist can't get the right color the first time?

If she has a manager, I would talk to them. Haircolour is an art form %26amp; a little bit of chemistry to concoct the perfect shades using the colours available.

Be honest w/ her %26amp; tell her that you really aren't happy. If she cares about her work (%26amp; her reputation- because I would tell everyone who messed my hair), she will make you happy either by using a toner to take care of the brassiness, refunding your money, or getting someone in the same salon to help her get her formula right. Colour is tricky %26amp; you never exactly know how someone's hair is going to process. If it doesn't turn out right, you keep working on it over a few weeks (so the hair can take a break from all the damage) to get it right.

Most people just go somewhere else %26amp; have another stylist colour correct the mistakes thus having to pay more. This is silly because you paid for a service that you aren't happy w/.

A great stylist will want to make their guests happy because if their clients are happy, they will return for more services.

Talk to her %26amp; have in mind what you want, ie, a refund, (which after 3 tries, I would want) or speak to her manager about a refund. It may also be about her time- if she mentioned the brassiness %26amp; you didn't speak up, she may have just hoped you would let it pass w/ out a comment. Speak up for what you want even after a service. Where I work, if a guest comes in w/ a photo %26amp; shows the stylist what they want, if the stylist doesn't manage to do this, they keep working at it until it is accomplished. Most good stylists will keep working.

I hope you aren't paying each time you are going to her are you? Once is enough to try to get the colour you want. Don't wait too long to contact her because there is usually only a 7 day period on disliking colours. After too long, they think you are just wanting a different colour for free.

Is it normal that a hair stylist can't get the right color the first time?

its normal for a hairstyles to not the the right color. and if you really dont like it then go to a different hair place and let they try to get it right.

Is it normal that a hair stylist can't get the right color the first time?

Well maybe she's working you for the money. I would go to a different salon the next time. Three tries is a bit much for just getting highlights.

Is it normal that a hair stylist can't get the right color the first time?

I totally have been there. It happens all the time. I started to research the physics of hair coloring and do my own now (I haven't screwed it up yet!!!) I can't believe she sent you home with it orange when you said you wanted blonde.......Call her tomorrow and tell her she needs to fix it. If she saw the picture and didn't think she could achieve the color, she shouldn't have done it in the first place. You poor thing!

Good luck!!!!

Is it normal that a hair stylist can't get the right color the first time?

one time this lady died my hair, and it was this really ugly mousy brown color. i didn't say anything to her but then the next day i told myself i wasn't going to just live with that color, so i went back in and had her re-die it. the second time she made it dark brown with mocha and some red and it looked really pretty. she did it for free the second time which was really nice of her

i guess if i were you i would find someone different who knows exactly what color you want

Is it normal that a hair stylist can't get the right color the first time?

Sadly its not right for a hairstyleist to do that it shoulf be right the first time seeing as the colour is permiment so if i was u change ur styler

Is it normal that a hair stylist can't get the right color the first time?

she needs to ask u about Ur self if Ur drinking medicines,mood, analyze Ur hair, make sure she gets the right base, and use color lifters to get to color u want if is light, color hair is not easy and it also need to be explained about the bases because for example get in a swimming pool Ur hair can change color to ur base because of the chemicals and if they know what their doing yes they could get it right the first time

Miscarriage from dying hair?

I'm 6 weeks and 6 days today. My sister talked me into going and getting our hair highlighted together on Saturday (2 days ago), she's pregnant too. Yesterday I was in the ER for bleeding, and I'm going to my doctor today to see if I'm really miscarrying. Now I'm convinced it was from the hair dye and I'm so scared! I just had my 1st miscarriage on August 7th, and now this one? I mean what are the chances it's just a coincidence? I feel like I hurt my baby and I feel awful.

Miscarriage from dying hair?

no relax it is not from getting your hair dyed. i had a miscarried my first pregnancy and my second pregnancy and now I'm 14 weeks pregnant i had bleeding as well my doctor told me its implantation bleeding its from the egg embedding itself in the wall of the uterus. if you went to the er they would have not sent you to another doctor if you were having a miscarriage. they would take care of you then and there.. if you are going through a miscarriage and ill pray that you aren't it could be so many reasons and factors. most are unknown not because you dyed your hair once. good luck and your in my prays

Miscarriage from dying hair?

I doubt it's from dying your hair unless you were not in a well ventalated area where you were inhaling all sorts of fumes. Then it might have been because of that, but other than that, I don't think it's from the hair dye. I dyed my hair purple when I was 7 wks preg and nothing bad happened to me.

Miscarriage from dying hair?

nothing to do with hair dye at all...if the bleeding has stopped, then you might still be ok...spotting can happen and although it is a warning sign - it does not necessarily mean a miscarriage is happening...blood vessels can burst near the cervix which can cause that...have an internal scan done and put your mind at ease..2 miscarriages in a row is not uncommon - according to our doc - 1 in 5 pregnancies end in miscarriage...so don't fret...talk to your doc..and good luck

Miscarriage from dying hair?

OMG please don't blame yourself! I have 2 children and I Bleached my hair with BOTH of them and my babies are alive and well (almost 4 and 2)!

Hair dye in pregnancy?

Im 11 weeks pregnant and normally get my hair highlighted every 10 weeks or so. Have heard conflicting reports of whether to have hair dyed during pregnancy. Any advice?

Hair dye in pregnancy?

My mother teaches cosmetology (for over 25 years) and she told me that she has always been told that you should not have your hair colored by pregnant. Chemicals from the hair dye COULD harm your baby. If not certain, I would not do it because the health of your baby is most important. You can always get it colored again after the baby is born.

Hair dye in pregnancy?

there really is not any medical proof on what it can do to the fetus but it could make your hair turn a color you don't agree with beacuse of the change in hormones your body has changed. good luck

It will not hurt the baby. The only problem is the dye may not take or it may turn out a different color because of the hormones in your body due to the pregnancy.

Hair dye in pregnancy?

What means more to you....the way your hair looks or your baby's health for the remainder of your pregnancy? Of course there are conflicting reports, but...obviously hair dyes have chemicals that are put directly onto your skin, so you decide which is the right answer. Try and stick this out until your baby is born....remember, now begins the sacrifices we make as mothers!

Hair dye in pregnancy?

all through my pregnancy ive dyed mine but not highlighted or bleeched it allthough all my freinds did

Hair dye in pregnancy?

Nothing has proven that getting your hair dye during pregnancy will harm you or the baby. A lot of pregnant women get their hair and nails done. Their baby turned out fine. Just make sure you're not inhaling too much of the chemical stuff. Have windows and doors open! I've dyed my hair when I was 8 weeks pregnant and that was the most crucial time of pregnancy!

Hair dye in pregnancy?

You can dye your hair or highlight it. You just can't do a double process (dye AND highlight it) If you are going to do it; you have to either highlight it, or dye it but not both because that would be too many fumes for you to breath in. I'm a mother of 2 and i dyed my hair when i was pregnant with both, and they came out perfectly fine. My daughter is now 2 and my son is 3. I wish the best of luck to you, and hope you have a beautiful healthy baby!!

Hair dye in pregnancy?

Hair dye in pregnancy?

it's down to the hair dresser really some refuse and others will do it, i'm 23 weeks preggers and my hair dresser has no quarms wi doing my hair at all, she just doesn't take the dye right to the root she leaves half a inch or so, so that the dye doesn't have no contact with your scalp,

I also asked about this babe. Both the doctor and hairdresser said it was fine to get easy mesh but not the cap. Apparently the easy mesh doesn't go straight to your scalp therefore you're not getting the chemicals. Hope this helps x

I just highlighted my hair and i really really hate it.....?

Ouch, sorry you arent happy with your hair.

I'd go consult a hairdresser, if you try to colour over the top of peroxide it might go green or worse, you need some sound advice and unless you know exactly what products were used you could end up in real trouble!

go see a person who knows what they are talking about, trust me things can go bad, I have red hair and tried one of those wash in wash out colours, my hair went bright orange! Arghhhhhhhh.............

Good Luck!

How to keep hair from turning brassy???

I have my hair highlight and low lighted. The dark is really dark and the light is really light. I love it, but it's been a few weeks since it was colored and I'm noticing the blond is turning slightly brassy.

How do i keep it from doing this??

I've used sheer blonde shampoo before which helped, but I'm hesitant to use it now since the majority of my hair is DARK, which I don't want to fade. Will this affect the overall color at all?

Do the violet shampoos work??
