It was well worth it but it made me realise how bad my diy “highlights” looked before… never again, I’ve already booked my next touch up in advance. Hairdressing is an *art form* and takes talent that I truly do not possess.

My Mom, who was a hairdresser in the 50s, tried to help me fix my highlights at my roots. Needless to say it turned out horrible. Ran to the hairdresser the next day to fix it. I had to go darker which I absolutely loved and I am still a brunette after 15 years!!! What started as a mess actually became a blessing.

[@birdyfeederz7940]

reminds me of when my "artistic" grandmother tried to help my mom blend her grey in so she didn't have to keep dying it. she got a ton of copper and caramel streaks instead of natural-grey highlights. it was pretty, but absolutely not what she was going for

One of my clients came to me with hair exactly like Hannah it took me literally 6 hours to fix was not a good time but was super satisfying to make it look awesome

[@hannahforcier2.0]

Ooooooo

[@The_Salty_Siren]

All that work & it still grows out with a line of demarcation on me😅 I bleach my hair every spring & gradually as the roots grow out smudge with (mostly) deposit only color that progressively gets darker & darker as I “touch up” the smudging over time. I start with a level 6, 8 weeks after the roots come in & smudge using vertical parting/application about 2-3” down. The vertical application allows the “highlights” aka “leave out” to peak through as well. Then in another 6-8 weeks the next smudge sesh is a level 5.5 etc etc leaving me with the perfect balayage for fall. Then I leave it alone once the roots are good without touch ups through winter then when spring hits I do it all over again. I love the results I get & I can play with color on the ends. Not that you asked but this process works so well for me & doesn’t take 6 hours 😅 lol 😂

[@Michaelabeauty96]

@@The_Salty_Siren I actually did her natural color with the base I’d already done her hair so had that in the computer and it would make an easier grow out but I had no choice but to break it up with highlights all over her entire head if I just smudged it you would have seen the patchiness it was that awful lol but that’s a really good idea on your part

[@tom_something]

I think the first person deserves a lot of respect for throwing in the towel. How many times, on this channel, do we see someone start a project with optimism, screw up massively in the middle, and then keep pushing through with that same optimism, having learned nothing? All the time, right? And they almost always make it worse. But this person realized she was in over her head and had the presence of mind to realize she just didn't know what she needed to know in order to not make it worse. She stopped. People never stop on this channel. It's so refreshing, and it's a lesson for us all that sometimes you don't know what the f*ck you're doing and you just need to accept that and give up. And not forever, right? If she goes to a stylist to get it fixed, there's going to be PLENTY of time to talk shop with an actual expert while they repair the damage. Then, with that insight and a little time to step away, maybe she'll be ready to try again. On new hair, of course.

[@nonexistingvoid]

I'm really glad I found your videos. I started off knowing next to nothing about hair colouring, and not having the courage to dye my own hair. But now I only go to my hairdresser for trims and more complicated cuts and colour combos (like rainbow colours) I've learned to take better care of my hair, what to do when I mess up (because of course I still mess up sometimes,) and how I can make sure my hair doesn't end up completely fried. Recently, a friend has asked me to do her daughter's hair, because she loves what I do with my hair so much. I'm a little anxious about it, because I'm used to my light blond to dark brown hair, and this girl has dark brown to black hair, which I'm not too familiar with. Advice on how to best prepare this type of hair for pink streaks are welcome, while I'll continue to do some more research of my own. After all, I wouldn't want to ruin the girl's hair, especially since she wants to show it off while trick or treating.
