Fashion and style is dream of every men and women. People do different things with their skin and hair. They cut their hair in different styles and dye hair in different colors to get new and elegant look. Some people go to some beauty salon and some people try these practices at home. I deal with many clients who are interested to do some beauty treatments at their homes. I use to share my tricks with them and here I want to share a special trick with all my valued readers. If you also want to become trendy and stylish and want to highlight your hair at home then follow the tips given below:
• Wash your hair frequently two days earlier when you want to highlight your hair.
• Check the expiry date of hair color and don’t use the left over of hair color for the next time.
• Make proper use of brushes for application of color and also use gloves to prevent color on your hands.
• Start coloring the hair from back side of head to front.
• Pick top layer of hair for highlighting.
• You can use foil paper or cap for hair streaking.
Buy a streaking cap from nearby shopping store or beauty supply store. Put hair cap on your head after combing your hair. This cap has holes in it and you need to pull out strands of hair from these holes. Doing this you will keep the rest of the hair separate from the hair you want to dye. After picking strands of hair, apply the bleach or hair color on your hair to highlight them from rest of hair. This method is very useful for short length hair and also easy to use. When you want to highlight your hair at home then you should go with this method as you may find other method difficult to deal with.
When you use foil paper for hair streaking then you need to follow some other method. Take individual strands of hair and insert the foil below each strand. Apply the dye on each streak. Fold the foil after applying the dye to keep the color away from rest of hair. This method gives best control over hair but it demands much care and is time consuming.
• If you are streaking your dark color then you should apply some lighter color or bleach the selected streaks but if you have colored all you hair in light color then you should highlight the selected streaks with some dark color.
