Good or bad idea to get highlights?
i have full head highlights- im naturally dark blonde and i have highlights lighter blonde. I love having my hair highlighted because of the colour and i love getting it done. Obviously the cons are you not liking the colour and also roots. Although roots can be a pain I only have to have my hair died 3times a year and my roots hardly show. Also you can get just your roots done at hairdressers rather then your whole head highlighted again. If you want a change, go for it. AT the end of the day if its really that bad, die it back. Youve got the whole of the easter holiday soo... GO FOR IT :)
Bad highlight job... help?
Today i went to get my hair highlighted. It's naturally a really really really dark brown. Long story short the highlights are a honey color (not the color that i wanted at all) and it's allllllll over. How do i go about getting it back to my natural color? My friend is a hairstylist and she offered to just add toner to my honey highlights to make them darker. But idk if that will look good. Basically, i'm asking if i do add a toner that was close to my regular hair color, will it damage my hair even more, since i got it bleached today? (and it was my first time bleaching) Also, how long should i wait to do this? Can i do it tomorrow or over the weekend?
Bad highlights best way to fix?
My hair is DARK brown and VERY long - which makes this even worse for me. I went in wanting very "natural" looking highlights - specifically told her I did not want that chunky/striped look. Well--my highlights are a brassy color with a golden/orange tint and looks like thick lines going down my hair. The sides (by my ears/face) is completely highlighted - none of my natural color is there at all. What is the best way to fix this. I think she knew she did a bad job before I left - told me if in a few days I thought the highlights were too light come back & she will add toner. Needless to say I am afraid to go back to her - but I did pay a good chunk of $. What should I request - toner, lowlights, is there a way for her to go back & foil some of the highlighted areas to darker shades to break up the obvious stripes? I wish I had not lost contact with my old stylist - she kept cards on the color mixture - everything. Long message I know - any advice would be greatly appreciated.
How to fix spotty highlights?
It shouldn't have gone spotty in a few places I'm not sure why it has, you could go over the highlights again with the same colour in the places it has gone like that. They'll come out eventually when your hair grows but that could take a while depending on how fast your hair grows.
Second round of heavy highlights.. how do stylists do this?
3 months ago I had heavy highlights put into my brown hair.. I could say probably 3/5 of my hair is white blonde, but there are still thin (thickest being 1/2 inch) brown streaks in my hair all over the place that really darken down the color as a whole. I'm thinking about going back to get more highlights put in, but I know that if any bleach touches the blonde streaks I already have, they probably won't survive.. :P How do stylists weed out just the brown streaks to add more highlights? It seems this is nearly impossible. I've only ever had this one application of highlights done, so I never see how they divide the two colors to bleach out the rest of the brown.
Is Highlighting Your Hair Bad?? 10 Points To Best Answer?
Chemical treatments for hair have gotten a lot better even in the past few years, and now use fewer, less harsh chemicals. There are still chemicals in hair dyes, though, and it's not impossible to have an allergic reaction to hair dyes. My scalp is usually a little itchy for a day after I've had my hair done. Since it's your first time, I'd recommend that you dab a little bit of the dye on the inside of your wrist and wait to see if you get itchy or red. This is especially important if you have eczema or allergies, or if you have sensitive skin. Getting highlights every once in a while shouldn't damage your hair unless you have a really inept stylist or you go changing your hair color every other week. Then hair dye can dry out your hair and leave it looking limp and you just have to wait to grow it out. If you're not sure about changing your hair, you should ask for some semi-permanent highlights. These will wash out in a few washes, and you can see if you like how they look. Then you can decide if you want to keep that look permanently.
Does highlighting textbooks really help studying?
Does highlighting textbooks really help studying?No. Highlighting is a bad study habit.If you are highlighting, you are skipping the reading and processing part of the equation. You are putting off synthesizing the information in favor of flagging it so you can find it later. It’s a form of procrastination.Highlighting gives an endorphin hit to the brain. It feels good, but doesn’t actually engage your brain. You read a bit, think to yourself, “This makes sense/seems important; I’ll highlight it to come back to.” Educational psychology experts call this “fluency”.[1] It makes you feel like you’ve learned something, when you actually haven’t.Not only that, but highlights have a way of drawing the eye when you go back to review, causing you to skip over all the unhighlighted information. We see a similar phenomenon on social media. How many times have you seen someone who clearly only read a headline and never bothered to read the article it links to?Better than highlighting would be to read the information. Perhaps make some margin notes. Look away from the text and think about how it fits into what you have already learned.Write down the important points in your own words. Then refer back to the text and make sure what you wrote is correct. Repeat until you have it straight.If you are having a tough time with it, try making flashcards. These will force you to retrieve the information from memory, rather than just glancing at the highlighted portion and thinking, “Yeah, that makes sense… got it.”If you feel you absolutely must highlight, limit yourself to keywords, and no more than one sentence per paragraph. Highlight only after you have thoroughly read and understood the text.Don’t use highlighting as a substitute for taking notes. And whatever you do, don’t turn it into a color-coded art project. You only need one color pen.Footnotes[1] Here's Why Highlighting Doesn't Actually Help You Remember Anything
Does using lemon juice to highlight your hair damage it?
It does, unfortunately. If you only use a bit and NOT ON THE ROOTS, though you could do it. You just apply and leave in for a while and then rinse it out thoroughly. It's not good for your hair though... sorry!
Is highlighting or underlining books more effective to the learning process and why?
I’m an avid self-learner (or so I like to think of myself) and books are the first thing I go to for learning anything. I have seldom ever highlighted or underlined anything in any one of my books.I’ve always preferred writing more than marking.Marking math books was rarely a question for me. Whenever I stumbled upon a really good proof that was worth remembering, even though I understood it completely, I’d put pen to paper and recreate the proof on my notebook.The same went for science. Formulae, I tried to derive on paper after I’d read and understood them, and concepts I tried to summarize for myself to see if I’d gotten the essence of it. If not, there was something I was missing, and I’d go back to the book to see what it was.The rare occasions on which I did mark my books was when it seemed to me like a concept totally relied on a single word or phrase used in the text. Sometimes, I’d feel myself in a jumble of totally incomprehensible words and symbols when trying to understand a concept, and then it’d turn out that a single word that I had not taken to be much important actually held the thing together.For example, this used to happen a lot, and still does, when I’m studying any theorem related to positive integers. As you might’ve guessed, I’d read over the ‘positive’ and the ‘integers’ in the theorem statement without thinking much about it, and then after reading the proof, I’d realize that it didn’t apply to all numbers. I’d frantically search for ways how the proof applied to those numbers too, but it never worked. After hours of going mad and feeling like a complete jerk, I’d find that the theorem was not applicable to all real numbers anyway.On such cases, I was prone to fall in the same trap on a reread, so I marked it.I never marked for the purpose of summarizing. I always preferred learning something by heart, which leaves no necessity to prepare summaries for pre-exam revisions. I could just skim through a chapter and everything I’d learned would automatically come rushing back to me.Do anything that makes you learn. If you are not learning, marking on the books or no, it’s all going to turn out to be useless.
