My hair is bleached platinum, but the toner to keep it from being gold won't stay on my hair, a

Any suggestions from stylist or colourists out there? My hair naturally lifts to golden but I don't like it so my stylist puts a toner to neutralize the gold but it has only lasted about 5 days %26amp; it was a permanent colour that she used. I was wondering if I were to just bleach it again %26amp; remove all the colour from the hair, would this work? My hair is pretty strong %26amp; in great condition. I think it can withstand one more round of bleach without causing too much damage. I have even been using a blue/purple shampoo called Shimmer lights to help boost the toner %26amp; cut the gold. I was considering using a violet based colour rather than a neutral as a toner but it kind of scares my that I may turn my hair violet!



No matter who colours my hair, I end up w/ the same problem- it goes gold. I need some help please. I have an aesthetician's license so I am able to purchase all professional hair colouring products.

I think from the sounds of it your best bet at this point would be to do a really heave highlight, and get those pieces as light as you can. It will cause a lot less damage to your hair than bleaching your whole head. The lighter pieces will blend out the gold pieces if there is enough highlights.



If you don't want to go that route shades eq by redken has a toner called platinum ice. If you decide to try this product make sure you get the shades eq developer if you don't the toner wont work and make sure you watch it very,very,very close if left on to long or put on to light of hair it will turn it grey.

PURPLE SHAMPOO!

Um maybe you aren't leaving the toner on long enough. You should leave it on at least 30 min. like normal permanent color that way it has a chance to deposit into the cortex. Some stylist just put it on and rinse it out 5 min later because it takes on most people enough that its not golden. Also shimmering lights removes golden tones you were right but it could have ruined the toner you put on it. thus making it fade faster and go back to the tone under it. You don't want to bleach it again because it will just come out the same. A toner is your best be all around, you may be picking a color for your toner that is still in the golden family so it can't really mask any golden tones. Good luck. Hope I helped some.

Your stylist is probably using a high lift tint, instead of a decolorizer on your hair...The problem is that the tint is not strong enough to lift you past that orange stage, and the toner is not dark enough to cover the "brassy "color.



You need to do a full scalp bleach, to get it light enough, or highlight the top to get it light enough,,,,,this is a common problem with blonds...



I recommend that you keep your hair a little darker (for contrast) and highlight to the desired level of blond.

Try using Shimmer Lights by Clariol, it's a Shampoo in a purple bottle and the colour of the shampoo is purple this should help tone the gold in your hair( just use it each time you feel you want to tone down the gold)Or you could get your hair bleached out so it's whiter(leave bleach on a little longer) and takes most of the gold out.

How do I change my image?

I've spent years being this frumpy working class single mom who speaks with a southern draw. My clothes are old and all neutral colored - all of my shoes are worn and tattered. I don't know how to wear makeup. I do have waist-length hair that I never cut, but it's the perfect creative canvas for a hair stylist.



I don't have a lot of money and I want to change my image. Where do I start?



How do I change my image?

Let's start with the clothes. I would suggest getting yourself two pant suits. One black and one beige.



Click here:http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref...



Click here:http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=...



These suits are great because you can wear them to work with a nice shirt or you can put a dressier shirt on for evening wear. (jacket optional for evening) Invest in some nice heels one black pair and one neutral color.



Don't go too drastic with the hair at first. You might want to try cutting off a few inches and adding layers. Put in a few highlights, see how you feel about it. Then take your time and find a hairstyle that you really like.



As for make-up I suggest Almay. They have this really cool collection called "play". Depending on your eye color, they have 3-in-1 eye shadows that play up your eye color and matching mascara. Keep an eye on walgreens, they sometimes have buy one get one free on Almay products.



How do I change my image?

go to edit my info and choose use my avatar or create one =}



How do I change my image?

Make up cause it makes the most differance, and it is the most least expensive to work with, the the hair and be daring something your not likly to do that really revamps you, you can also ask your friend what they think you need to change so that can beat the frumpy vibe, then work on cloths, they have this cool show on tlc called what not to wear check it out, they give good advise for body type and personal style.



How do I change my image?

You can go to any department store makeup counter and get a free makeover. If you go when they are not very busy they are always helpful with makeup tips etc. You don't have to buy all of the products they show you maybe choose one or two and then get a less expensive versions of the rest at Target etc.



The one place I would spend a little extra is going to a good salon for a haircut. Get recommendations friends coworkers as to a good salon in you area. Meet with whoever is going to do your hair and explain what you like how much time you have to work on your hair etc. Bring pictures of styles you like.



You will be amazed how a new haircut a little makeup will change your appearance. Good Luck!!



How do I change my image?

First thing to change? The way you see and describe yourself! Confidence is super sexy and inexpensive! Don't do an extreme haircut till you find a personal style you're comfortable with. Buy new shoes and accessorize - practice with colors, styles, till you find something you like, then you can start buying clothes to fit the different you! And have fun!



How do I change my image?

Make a scrapbook of things you like. Use any paper and paste on pictures from magazines, brochures, newspapers,e.t.c... It can be pics of anything- clothes, flowers, furniture... Then you will see what style and colours you like. Also include words, poems, quotes.. Because our physical apperance is often seen as a reflection of who we are- how can you know what you want to look like if you cannot articulate who you are and what you want to present to the world? Go to a beauty school, the treatments are performed by students and are affordable- same for hairdressing schools. I go op-shopping, garage sales, e-bay- I often smile whan people compliment me/my kids on their clothes because I probably spend a 1/4 of what their worth on them. Buy beauty magazines or get beauty books out of the library to help you learn hair/make-up techniques, and dont be afraid to ask your hairdresser, beautician, make-up service assistant for help as it is their job. Good for you for wanting to feel good and look good! Us women are too often on the bottom of our "to do"list! All the best!

New Hairstylist?

I am an Asian visiting in the midwest and need a cut and highlighting. Since there aren't any Asian hairstylists in my area, should I look for a stylist with similar hair and cut to my own? My hair is long, tends to be dry and very coarse. Any other tips that I should look for?



New Hairstylist?

Well since you can't find an Asian hair stylist what you may want to do is look up local hair stylists in your area, describe your hair type to them and ask if they can help with your hair.



Make sure they understand that you need someone who can deal with long, dry and course hair. As long as the person knows how to deal with your hair texture, no matter what their race is they should definitely be able to give you a great hairstyle!! Good luck!!

Hair question?

I want to say first that, I dont have a "fashion stylist" im just a normal person without a stylist.. i guess? anyways I want my hair to look like this



http://www.aolcdn.com/red_galleries/01-d...



Right now my hair is getting longer, But i want to know



1) will it grow like that, will it end up looking like drakes hair? or do I have to get it cut?



2) if I have to get it cut.. when, and what do I tell the barber..



3) anything else?



Hair question?

tell the barber you want it long and choppy with side fringe ... he'll get the point or take the pic to the barbers



Hair question?

First don't go to the barber-they are good at shaving.



Take the pic to a hairdresser and she should get it.Also



just part your hair to the side,with gel and it should grow out



like that.



Hair question?

Take dis pic to da barber.It is better if u go to a hair stylist than a barber.Nd don't tell ur roommate to cut it coz it will be horrible!!



Hair question?

how long is your hair? you have to train your hair to fall like that so start parting it and combing it like that. DO NOT let your roommate cut your hair unless they are a stylist! you might want to try adding some leave in conditioner, it will add weight to get it to stay parted untill it is trained, and will also help keep it straight and smooth! if your hair isnt naturally straight you might need to blow dry it or straighten it. take the pic to the barber and tell then that is what you want and they will do it for you!



Hair question?

simply take the picture in he will knw exactly what to do



obviously u have 2 grow ur hair



gd luck xx

Do you have to have a degree or a license for photography?

I mean, if you're really good at it, and you want to do it? My sister is 18 years old, and she's an excellent photographer and knows so many tricks for taking pictures. I'm interested in photo editing. I want to start a business with her, but I don't know if I can legally do that without a license. I mean, anyone can take a picture and edit it, but to start a business with it? Anyone can cut or style hair, but you have to go to school and have a license to be a professional hair stylist.



This is something I really want to do, but I don't have the money, and as a working mom definitely not the time, to go to school and get a license.



Do you have to have a degree or a license for photography?

A professional license is not necessary though there will be business license issues.



The best routes to take are to research the process of starting a business as well as the industry you're interested in.



I recommend checking out the SBA, Entrepreneur, The Start Up Journal %26amp; Nolo. All 4 are great informational resources for the new/small business owner. I posted links for you in the source box.



Associations may be a good avenue to explore. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you'll inevitably have as well as many you haven't anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.



Research, research, research 閳?this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can about the industry. Here are some book titles that are relevant:



* Photographers Market Guide to Building Your Photography Business: Everything you need to know to run a successful photography business by Vik Orenstein



* Legal Handbook for Photographers: The Rights and Liabilities of Making Images Paperback by Bert P. Krages



* How to Start a Home-Based Photography Business, 4th Paperback by Kenn Oberrecht



* Shooting %26amp; Selling Your Photos: The Complete Guide to Making Money With Your Photography by Jim Zuckerman



I also posted links to some free articles in the source box.



Hope that helps! I wish you much success %26amp; happiness in all your ventures!



Do you have to have a degree or a license for photography?

No you do not need any professional license to be a professional photographer, and luckily it is a low cost business to start-up if you already have the equipment and doing it as a hobby.



Wedding and such are the traditional ways to start a photography business, but i would suggest offering your services to advertisement agencies and smal businesses, small businesses especially. there are also firms that purchase a photgraphers photographs to use as stock photos which they lease use to corporations - good luck

So Ive never had split ends and after haircut I have them now, can it be the cut?

I never had split ends, I am trying to grow my hair longer, I just had a trim and my regular stylist wasnt in so someone else cut it. Now Ihave split ends! Can you get them from a bad scissor or haircut?



So Ive never had split ends and after haircut I have them now, can it be the cut?

I dont think so.... Try using a Wide tooth Comb ...Dont use a brush on your hair It will give you more split ends.....



So Ive never had split ends and after haircut I have them now, can it be the cut?

Yes you can get them from a bad scissor or a bad haircut. It might also be that the hair shaft was not in very good shape and when the hair was trimmed it was trimmed up to the splits and now you have them. You should definetly go back and demand that another stylist takes a look at your cut to find out exactly what happened. I know thta different tools, like a razor, can make the hair look split because of the way it cuts. So seriously go back because more than likely you paid a good bit and you should always leave happy.



So Ive never had split ends and after haircut I have them now, can it be the cut?

It is possible if the stylist used a razor which is usually used for layering.



Always use a comb on wet hair and for dry hair, use a "real" bristle brush. They are not as prevalent as they used to be but can still be found at beauty supply houses.



Remember... 100 strokes a day.

? I think I have a thyroid condition that's causing hair shedding.............?

I think that's it...My hair grows like water and is in good condition, I had a little over an inch cut a week ago and the stylist made several comments on the condition of my hair but it's shedding and has been doing so for over a year...I don't see what else it could be this isn't typical in my blood line, I was born with thick hair and even my Grandmother has thick hair still...What do you'll think...have you ever been through this and found out the reason for shedding...what can cause shedding please list some things before i go make an appointment...has anyone ever discovered that they had a thyroid condition causing shedding?



? I think I have a thyroid condition that's causing hair shedding.............?

You could very well have a thyroid condition, known as Hypothyroidism. (underactive thyroid gland) Some of the symptoms, are hair loss, dry skin, weight gain, tiredness, etc. The easiest way to find out if you have it or not, is to schedule an appointment with your doctor, tell him of your concerns, %26amp; ask him to order a special blood test for you. Without a doubt, it will confirm whether or not you have it. If you have it, you will be placed on synthroid, %26amp; in time, the pills will raise the various levels, within the thyroid gland. Periodically, you will have this special bloodwork repeated, %26amp; if any of the levels are low, the doctor may increase your daily dosage of synthroid. Hair loss can also result from stress also.



? I think I have a thyroid condition that's causing hair shedding.............?

yes thyroids can cause some hair loss i have thyroids, go get it checked its a simple blood test



? I think I have a thyroid condition that's causing hair shedding.............?

Thyroid problems run in my family, and I can tell you for sure that hair loss is one symptom. Other major symptoms are fatigue weight loss or gain or insomnia. There are also many different kinds of thyroid disorders, so narrowing down will be helpful.



You need to go to a doctor to have thyroid bloodwork done and explain your symptoms. Thyroid problems are tricky and the only way to be sure is to discuss it with a healthcare professional. However, once you've figured out what's wrong, there are certain meds you can go on that will help you a lot of your symptoms.



Good luck :)



? I think I have a thyroid condition that's causing hair shedding.............?

Thyroid could be one of several causes. Some medications will cause loss of hair for example Birth control, anti depressants, etc. also age and stress could play a signficant role.



? I think I have a thyroid condition that's causing hair shedding.............?

Yes, for me the shedding was due to hypothyroidism. To test for this have a morning TSH, Free T4, Free T3, and an antibody test.



When I first got on medication, it did not help with the hairloss. It ony helped when I switched to a natural thyroid medication called ARmour. Actually some hair grew back, especially the eyebrow area.

What type of cut is Lauren Conrad's new (New Year's) haircut?

I'm growing out my short hair and like Lauren's new hairstyle. I wanted to know what kind of cut to describe to my stylist.Thank you! :)



What type of cut is Lauren Conrad's new (New Year's) haircut?

its just a simple long layered cut..

Alright I need some opinions here?

I'm getting my hair cut in a few weeks and I know that I want to get layers and layered bangs to go with. The problem is, I don't have a definite idea of what sort of layers or what sort of layered bangs to choose. So I need you people to help me out here by giving me pictures so I can show my stylist. What type of layers do you like most? And what type of layered bangs do you like most?



Please include pics as I will need to show my stylist when I get my hair cut!



Alright I need some opinions here?

I personally like this a little



http://cache.eonline.com/Features/Featur...



Sorry I don't have more pics =)



I think layers look great on almost anyone. You'll look great! Ask your stylist what style she thinks will accommodate your face shape etc



Alright I need some opinions here?

i agree with tree hugger. that's actually the style i was going to suggest. it fits a lot of different faces, not just the one in the picture tree hugger linked, i've seen a few girls at school and on the street with the same style but very different face shapes - several round, a few with sort of baby (chubby-cheeked) faces, as well as the sort of sharp, pointy chin and cheekbones.

Haircut Help?

Ok, I want to go back to my roots and I want to have natural african american hair. The only way to do this would be cutting it of very very short. I have gone natural before, but I always relax my hair again because it natural grows out coarse/ curly/ wavy. Any way, I want one of those hair styles that are cut really really low. How do I tell my stylist what I want. The hair cut that I want consist of my hair being cut down really low.. almost to the scalp. What are some good ideas?



Haircut Help?

Get a picture if you can. You know hairstylist get their own visions and do what they want if they're not sure what you want them to do. You know you don't have to cut your hair when your going natural. Just in case you change your mind go to curls.biz. They have a kit that helps when you wanna go back natural. The products are really moisturizing so you don't have to worry about your new growth breaking off.



Haircut Help?

Haircut Help?

Relaxers and changing textures????

Srry I'm asking this again i just want more answers..... srry again



I'm growing out my relaxer that I have had for five years with the help of my professional hair stylist... but I'm wondering I had thick course curly hair before the relaxer will my texture be the same as before I relaxed it. Its already starting to grow since I opted to not chop it off at all one time(cuz I cant afford to) and it looks a somewhat looser curl..... some people have told me relaxers do change the texture and some have said they dont. So do they or do they dont? I do realize that as soon as my curly hair gets to a length I want I have to cut the relaxed hair I AM AWARE OF THIS.... thanks to all who can help.



Thanks again!



ps: why havent i had any breakage? i realize i might have some in the near future but i take really good care of my hair and everybody is talking bout breakage but my new growth is almost 2 inches and i have had very little i mean very very little breakage...... ??????



Relaxers and changing textures????

I have grown out my relaxer successfully am im glad u are too! Relaxers do change the texture of the hair, however what grows out of your scalp is your natural texture. A few cm of hair that grows has some of the relaxer chemical in it but when u cut off the relaxed ends ,you will get a true essence of what your hair looks like natural. As far as breakage, my hair did break as it grew out because of the point where the natural hair meets the relaxed but everyones hair is different :-). Its oky if you dont have breakage. This site is great for transitioning help and natural hair care; www.nappturality.com



Relaxers and changing textures????

DUNNO!LOL



Relaxers and changing textures????

If you've been keeping your hair well moisturized. You more than likely wont have any breakage.

My hair is damaged PLEASE Help!?

I need a stylist advice on this. My hair is damaged and coming out. In order to stop this, I was told by someone that I need to cut it all off and start from scratch. I am a 26yr old African American woman and am too afraid of doing that to my hair, if I did that she said I would have to wear wigs or weaves until my own hair grows back. Someone please advise me on what the best thing to do is to get my hair back to growing and healthy



My hair is damaged PLEASE Help!?

here are some home remedies which are very good for dry hair. i had dry hair myself but when i tried these tips it was great! they've never been dry again!



Dont go out and buy anything expensive.



First: Purchase a mild Shampoo (To Clarify hair, I will explain why)



Second: TRIM your hair ends (May 1 1/2 to 2 inches)



Third: Here's the magic part: Mix olive oil, almond oil, coconut oil, avocado oil and a "little" honey, (honey u will have to heat so it can blend). Either leave on ALL day or all night (if all nite, DONT use honey)



Beat up on an Egg: Separate the white of an egg from the yolk, and whip the white thoroughly. Then add 1 tablespoon of water to the yolk and blend until the mixture is creamy. Next, mix the white and yolk together. Wet your hair with warm water, remove the excess moisture, and apply the egg mixture to your scalp with your fingertips. Massage gently until the froth is worked into your scalp, and then rinse the hair with cool water. Keep applying the mixture until it is used up. Continue to rinse until all of the egg is washed away



Go for the Mayo: Heat up one half cup of mayonnaise until it becomes an oily, white goo and apply to dry, unwashed hair. Cover your hair with a plastic bag and leave on for at least 15 minutes. Then, rinse and shampoo thoroughly.



Mix up a Tropical Treat: Mash one over-ripe banana (the blacker, the better) with a mushy, rotten avocado. Massage this exotic puree into your hair and leave on for at least 15 minutes before washing out鈥n the kitchen sink!).



Grab a Cold One. Beer can give your dry hair a healthy sheen. Before you blow-dry or style, use a pump bottle to spray brew onto your hair. The beer will leave your hair shiny and sleek and its odor will disappear quickly.



In addition to using these home remedies regularly to avoid dry hair, try the following preventative measures:



Avoid overshampooing. Shampooing can wash away the hair's protective oils, so try washing less often and use a mild shampoo labeled "for dry or damaged hair."



Condition regularly. Conditioners protect the hair鈥檚 cuticle layer from splitting from the shaft. Pick a conditioner that works well for your hair and use it after every shampoo.



Wear a hat. Too much exposure to wind and sun can leave hair thirsty.



Trim off split ends. The biggest problem caused by dry hair is split ends. Schedule a trim every six to eight weeks to keep fraying ends under control.



Ease up on the heat. Heat (in the form of blow dryers, as well as straightening and curling irons) can quickly dry out hair. Let your hair air dry occasionally. Try using plastic cylinder rollers to straighten hair by wrapping slightly moist hair under and around rollers for about 10 minutes. For curling, try using sponge rollers overnight or sleeping with moist braids.



Don't swim without a cap. Use a rubber cap to protect your hair from the damaging effects of chlorine. If you must forgo a cap, rub a spoonful of olive oil into your hair before diving in.



Another thing is also putting in lotion in your hair after you have gotten out of the shower and you can also put in lotion in hair after you have dried it.



Just rub some lotion on your finger tips and run it through your hair evenly.



Also, something that will help your hair is to take COLDshowers. What most people dont know is that if you take hot showers, the heat gets rid of the oils and other things that your hair needs to be kept healty and shiney.



Smash an avocado and mix with jojoba and peppermint oils. Make sure its really smooth you may want to put it in a food processor with a little water. Then apply some to your scalp and the rest on your hair. Massage for a minute or so then put on a plastic cap. Leave for 15 to 30 minutes. The avocado and jojoba oils will moisterize and the peppermint will stimulate your scalp to loosen any dead skin and open your pores. It will feel great. Your hair will grow better and won't be dry. :)



Hope this helps!

when hair gets severly damaged.. there isnt enough product in the world to get it to become healthy again... shaving it all off sound harsh, but it WOULD grow back healthy... eaither that or just cut it really short, and wait for it to grow out again... it's a naturual process.



i had really damaged hair as well. due to chemical straightening, flat ironing and coloring... i ended up cutting it short.. and it's much healthier now...

My hair is damaged PLEASE Help!?

When your hair grows it is already dead!! So what I can advise you to do as a stylist is if you know a stylist that can get you the Biologe conditioning treatments you will be all set. There is one that is used only in salons and then there is a 5 pack which you purchase and keep up at home. I've tried tons of treatments and I have to say that I think that this one works the best!!! It's a little pricey but I swear by this product. Maybe you can even find it on line if you don't know a stylists personally.



The 1st product is: Biolage cera-repair pro (salon use about 15 dollars in the beauty supply store, but you get a lot of it)



The 2ND product is: Biolage cera-repair (comes with 5 tubes and is about 10 dollars)



Good luck and I hope I helped!!! If worse comes to worse I would shave it and wear wigs you might like a new look every couple of days!!!



My hair is damaged PLEASE Help!?

My hair is damaged PLEASE Help!?

Okay, I've had some hair nightmares. My hair is now past shoulder length. About a year ago I went to get it cut because I had a similar problem as yours. Mine kept breaking off in the back, center of my head. Well, to make a long story short, the stylist cut it really short and I was traumatized. I just now got it this length.



Can you possibly grown the hair at the very top of your head over the bald spot? Then you won't have to cut it all one length. And, if your hair is falling out, how will cutting it all off make it stop? You should tell a stylist to save every last inch she can and tell her the MOST you want cut off i.e. 2 inches, 3 inches, etc. My hair is still shorter in the back center of my head, but no one can tell, because the hair from the top of my head covers it. If I cut it all one length I'd probably have 2 or 3 inches of hair, instead of my long hair. I'd never do that. I love my long hair.



Good luck.



My hair is damaged PLEASE Help!?

Even though it sounds traumatic to cut off your hair, it is probably the best thing for you. One of the wonderful things about hair is that it grows back. Hair grows about 1/4" to 1/2" a month. If you take care of your hair after you cut it, it should grow back in no time at all. In fact, some women look very nice with short hair. While you are growing back your hair you need to be sure and avoid whatever it was that damaged your hair in the first place so you don't have to go through this again. We have a hair repair kit that contains moisturizing and gentle hair products for black and African hair, as well as two books that contain information to help you learn how to take care of your hair without harsh chemicals and wigs or weaves.

My hair is damaged PLEASE Help!?

I need a stylist advice on this. My hair is damaged and coming out. In order to stop this, I was told by someone that I need to cut it all off and start from scratch. I am a 26yr old African American woman and am too afraid of doing that to my hair, if I did that she said I would have to wear wigs or weaves until my own hair grows back. Someone please advise me on what the best thing to do is to get my hair back to growing and healthy

My hair was overprocessed in a salon leaving it very damaged. What can I do to treat dry/damaged/ po

My hair was breaking for a while. I had it cut and cut off about four inches. Since the trim it has stopped breaking. When would you recommend attempt to color correct the hair by a professional? Any stylists??



My hair was overprocessed in a salon leaving it very damaged. What can I do to treat dry/damaged/ porus hair?

get it cut as short as you can bear, and condition condition condition!



I suffer from dry greasy hair if that makes sense! My hair is very badly split and dry but also gets greasy very quickly so i wash it every day with a frequent use moisturising shampoo (John Frieda Straightening Agent is my favourite). Lots of conditioner, some folk say you only need a small squirt but i use a good palmful. Leave it on for two minutes and rinse for at least 3 minutes.



Towel dry and spray in a leave in conditioner on the ends, this makes them stronger and more resistant to splitting. Never use a brush on wet hair- use a wide tooth comb and be gentle!



Straighten if you must, but slather on a good heat protector- I recommend Straightening Potion also by John Freida (no i'm not a John Frieda sales rep- it's just good).



Never straighten wet hair either.



Style as desired, and rub in some frizz taming serum. You may need to use a lot if your hair is as split as mine!



Do this every day, and you'll soon feel better about your hair.



My hair was overprocessed in a salon leaving it very damaged. What can I do to treat dry/damaged/ porus hair?

Once you apply hair color expect it to be dry...let it grow



My hair was overprocessed in a salon leaving it very damaged. What can I do to treat dry/damaged/ porus hair?

buy some cholostral in a buety store! works ay ok



My hair was overprocessed in a salon leaving it very damaged. What can I do to treat dry/damaged/ porus hair?

FInd out what salons around you carry Redken products and get the Cat Protien . . . its going to make your hair still and feel awful but that is actually helping it then use the shampoo and cond for a while. try not to use any heat (blow dryer ect.) Start using a deep cond as well with a clear processing cap for about 20 mins.



My hair was overprocessed in a salon leaving it very damaged. What can I do to treat dry/damaged/ porus hair?

keep heat out of your hair things like curlers flat irons etc.

keep your hair oiled but not too much try oil spritzers



My hair was overprocessed in a salon leaving it very damaged. What can I do to treat dry/damaged/ porus hair?

Use Kerastase it will add moisture and protin to your hair..it will rebuild your hairs strenght

How can I repair my damaged hair?

I've gotten three chemical straightenings done to my hair, and I've gotten it cut short and with lots of choppy layers. I love it, but lately it's been weak and pulling out two pieces at a time in the shower, or coming up as small clumps in the comb.



I use an obscene amount of hairspray and wax and more hairspray and more wax. If you're wondering why, it's because I tease and backcomb my hair like crazy.



This has been weakening my hair also. I got a protein treatment on it not too long ago, but it hasn't been helping.



I can't even wear my hair in a ponytail when I'm relaxing or anything because it comes out.



I really want to dye my hair black and blonde and retouch my raccoon tail, but my stylist (and my mom's best friend) says that it's too weak and that I have to wait until it all grows out again and get another straightening.



I'm furious and agitated and impatient with my stupid hair.



Is there any way I can repair my damaged/broken hair without spending a lot?



How can I repair my damaged hair?

Get a deep conditioning treatment from sally's or something. And buy hot oil, and use it twice a week. That's what I do after I dye or bleach or do something like that to my hair and it usally helps A LOT.



How can I repair my damaged hair?

There are inexpesive shampoo and conditioners you can get.



How can I repair my damaged hair?

go to your hairdresser, and ask the best way



or try neutrogena triple moisture hair mask%26lt;%26lt; my personal fav.



it works really well



also try laying off the wax and hairspray for a while



good luck!



How can I repair my damaged hair?

the truth is that the only way your hair will not be damaged anymore is if you grow it out...



How can I repair my damaged hair?

use this protect it does wonders and wash ur hair weekly...the frucctis shampoo and conditioner the orange one..sleek and shine and this deep conditioner is called mirta de perales its an orange bootle..deep conditioning hair MASQUE it penetrates, restores and hydrates the hair...wonderful..i use it



How can I repair my damaged hair?

You need a reconstructor with a high amount of protein in it. I'd recommend Redken Cat or Snap, Keraphix, BedHead Dumb Blonde or biolage sells treatments five in a little tubes, all are about $20. The Keraphix is probably your cheapest bet. Some wal-marts sell it, buy if you go to JC Penney salon and ask, they will help you. I think the best is the Redken Cat, but I haven't been able to find it lately. Don't listen to what anyone tells you, use it everytime you wash your hair, not once a week and you will be on your way to healthier hair. Trust me, I'm always traveling down that road and I ask LOTS of questions at the hairdresser's. I've tried all of these products I listed. They all work.



How can I repair my damaged hair?

Use a good deep conditioner twice a week (leave it in about 20 minutes), and give your hair a rest!



How can I repair my damaged hair?

you can put a couple drops of honey in with your shampoo..



not take hot showers...the heat damages your hair



put a little olive oil in with your shampoo



How can I repair my damaged hair?

First off, don't touch your hair with any more chemicals, it might fall out! Once hair gets damaged to a certain point its hard to bring it back. This is what I would do.. Use all professional products, I would recommend Biologe hydrating shampoo and conditioning balm. Bed head for your styling products, and Paul mitchells hair repair 2-3 times weekly fore a deep conditioning treatment, leave it in for a few hours. Also don't use any heat.. only when you absolutely have too. Get it trimmed every 6-8 weeks, and then in a couple of months you might be able to color it. Sorry there really is no cheap way to fix really damaged hair. If you absolutely have to use store bought, use herbel essence, they are better then some of the other ones.



How can I repair my damaged hair?

DEEP Condition. Get a deep condition from the store. Then put foil around your flat iron and tape it making sure that the tape isnt on the plate side. Or simply just use an old straightener. apply the deep condition everywhere on your hair when your hair is wet. and then take 1 inch section and plat iron your hair all though. Every singly peice. IT IS AMAZING. by the way i learned this from a famous hairdresser when i was in beauty school. youll love it.



How can I repair my damaged hair?

Stop using so much product on it. I know you don't like that answer, but that is the only way. Ironically, the more you do to it, the worse you make it.



Also, wash it twice a week with mayonnaise, try letting it air dry, use an acohol-free hair spray if you must use hairspray at all, and try nioxin shampoo and conditioner.



You have to accept your hair for what it is instead of trying to make it possess qualities it doesn't naturally have. Furthermore, straight hair is in, not big, overstyled hair. So let it go natural, put some CHI or Biosilk straightening cream in it every day and just give it time to repair!



How can I repair my damaged hair?

After i got my hair permed i used Redken CAT products, theres also other products that you can use that will improve your hair, you wanna use stuff that adds protien to your hair...



A really in expensive conditioner that i used once was called Humectant and it was by suave, but id seriously suggest you dont get your hair relaxed for a while if you can, and try using CAT Treatments, or at least go to a salon,and find out treatments that a Proffesional would suggest to rebuild the protien in your hair, but CAT worked for me, but only leave it in your hair for about 5 minutes at a time. Also if your hair was already Fine or medium texture before you got it "Chemically Straightened" your stylist should not have done that becouse your hair could break off all over the place! if your hair isnt Coarse or Wirey, Id go to a different stylist if thats the case. When your hair grows back heathier, try using a flat Iron, or one of those combs that you heat up, there less damging becouse they dont break the disulfide bonds in your hair.



If protien treatments dont seem to be working id seriously take your salonists and your moms advice and just wait it out, also if you use alot of hair spray use a clarrifying shampoo once a week itll help your hair, but dont use it to much becouse it could strip your color.

Haircut Gone WAY WRONG!!!!!?

I went to get a haircut today and the hair person was really weird. She was filling in for my regular hair stylist. She was almost drunk and she was wearing a little hoodie with the hood up. She looked like the Michelin Marshmallow Man. She is really weird. She gave me a huge bald spot and she was laughing out of control. She kept screaming and flirting with me. She was drinking while cutting my hair. I was scared of her. What do I do about her.



Haircut Gone WAY WRONG!!!!!?

Wow. That really sucks. If I were you I would definitely report her to her manager. That is about all you can do. But I wouldn't go bad mouthing the whole salon to your friends just because of that one person. It's not fair to them especially if they are doing a good job. Good luck. Hopefully you can get her out of there.



Haircut Gone WAY WRONG!!!!!?

complain to the salon about her.



Haircut Gone WAY WRONG!!!!!?

REPORT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Good Luck!



Haircut Gone WAY WRONG!!!!!?

you can report that! was there no one else there! you should have left that is violation of so many things! as for the bald spot... goood luck!



Haircut Gone WAY WRONG!!!!!?

report her to the manager and demand compensation and never go back, bad mouth the salon to all your friends. Word of mouth goes a long way.



Haircut Gone WAY WRONG!!!!!?

well.... find out where she lives... break in, and dont forget your ax.... you can figure out the rest ;)



Haircut Gone WAY WRONG!!!!!?

If I was your hair stylist I would drink too!!!! You would HAVE to be drunk to put up with you. Whine whine whine. Get a job, Girl Friend!!!! Hope your bald spot NEVER grows back. That will just be one more hole in your lovely little head!

Accused of being Gay?

I am a hair stylist and I have a family of clients that I have grown fond of. The boy is going into 7th grade this year and told me today, while I was cutting his hair, that the other boys at school make fun of him and accuse him of being gay. I have grown to be very fond of this family, and it KILLED me to hear that he is being tormented this way! He is a good looking boy and has a personality that matches his good looks! He is very sweet and kind, which is unusual for boys his age. All I could think of to say to him was 'Next year will be different, they'll move on to someone else.' ... HOW LAME! What I wanted to say is fight back, but I am not a family member, I am thier family stylist and it's not really my place to say anything! I know my place with clients, but what I said was just so generic! All I wanted to do was make him feel better and crap came out of my mouth because I couldn't say what I really wanted to say! What CAN I say without violating my boundaries?



Accused of being Gay?

Tell him what kind of assholes they are!



Accused of being Gay?

tell him what you just said....hes attractive and that in a few years the girls will be flocking towards him....i see what yourse saying tho-telll his mom or dad if you feel comfortable.....they can call whomever



Accused of being Gay?

you probably said the best that you could. so what if they say he's gay in 7th grade they barely know what sex is even when they have it. it's not a big deal in the course of his life and if he's as good looking as you say he is he won't have a problem no matter what side of the fence he plays.



Accused of being Gay?

Every guy has been callled gay these days. My freinds say I am gay, hell my girl freind has called me gay. I also say "you are gay" and "that is gay". They dont actually think he is gay, it just is the new way to insult people. Tell him to fight back!Of course you are not family, but that just means he will value your opinion over his family. He needs to get a girl freind. If he is cute like you said, it shouldnt be that hard. Give him pointers on how to pick up a girl.

I have grown to be very fond of this family, and it KILLED me to hear that he is being tormented this way! He is a good looking boy and has a personality that matches his good looks! He is very sweet and kind, which is unusual for boys his age. All I could think of to say to him was 'Next year will be different, they'll move on to someone else.' ... HOW LAME! What I wanted to say is fight back, but I am not a family member, I am thier family stylist and it's not really my place to say anything! I know my place with clients, but what I said was just so generic! All I wanted to do was make him feel better and crap came out of my mouth because I couldn't say what I really wanted to say! What CAN I say without violating my boundaries?



Accused of being Gay?

Tell him what kind of assholes they are!



Accused of being Gay?

tell him what you just said....hes attractive and that in a few years the girls will be flocking towards him....i see what yourse saying tho-telll his mom or dad if you feel comfortable.....they can call whomever



Accused of being Gay?

you probably said the best that you could. so what if they say he's gay in 7th grade they barely know what sex is even when they have it. it's not a big deal in the course of his life and if he's as good looking as you say he is he won't have a problem no matter what side of the fence he plays.



Accused of being Gay?

Every guy has been callled gay these days. My freinds say I am gay, hell my girl freind has called me gay. I also say "you are gay" and "that is gay". They dont actually think he is gay, it just is the new way to insult people. Tell him to fight back!Of course you are not family, but that just means he will value your opinion over his family. He needs to get a girl freind. If he is cute like you said, it shouldnt be that hard. Give him pointers on how to pick up a girl.

Can you recommend a GOOD HAIR SALON in PHOENIX?

I jsut moved to Phoenix, AZ, from St. Louis. I need a good salon, STAT! I need a place that offers hip, trendy cuts. I like a stylist who can roll with my ever-changing hair styles. Coloring not a need, but a place with good aestheticians would be helpful. (Spa options not a necessity, but a plus!)

Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

I got sick of my dark hair and got it bleached. I think the stylist left the bleach on too long under the dryer cuz my head started burning bad, literally smoking. I had to scream for her. Afterwards my previously thick hair was so thin, it looked like the hair on a dead person. This was 9 months ago and it's still breaking off in tiny pieces. Been using Redken Extreme conditioner, Nexxus Humectress conditioner %26amp; Zerran chemical modifer. I think Nexxus %26amp; Zerran are good because they contain keratin. The original plan was to bleach it again later on to get it blond (going from black only turned it orangy red) but after what it did to my hair, there was no way I was doing that) so I decided to dye it back recently to swell my hair shaft and make my hair look thicker again. I've been coating my hair with pure virgin olive oil and letting it soak in (isn't even helping much). Should I cut off a lot of my hair or can I get away with cutting just split ends? Any other recommendations?



Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

use flax seed oil for your hair! it does wonders and is great for your health!



What is flax seed oil?



Many times throughout this web site I use the terms "healthy fat" and "good fat." Usually I do it in a sentence that goes something like... "All of your daily fat intake should come from foods that contain healthy fat." After that I usually give a short list of foods that contain this "healthy" fat. As you probably noticed... this isn't much of a list. The reason for that is because there are very few sources of this hard to find good fat. Luckily though, there is a solution... flax seed oil.



Flaxseed oil is rich in EFA閳ユ獨, essential fatty acids. More specifically it contains the omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. This is the technical meaning of 閳ユ笁ealthy fat.閳?Your body needs these fats to function properly, yet it doesn't produce it on it's own. This makes EFA's an important part of your diet. Other sources of these fats are fish and nuts. Most of the fat in my diet comes from a combination of nuts and flax seed oil.



The hard part about getting all of your good fat from nuts or fish is that nuts contain extra calories from carbs and protein, and it閳ユ獨 not very convenient to prepare and eat a fish like salmon everyday. Flax seed oil on the other hand is as quick and simple as can be, and contains, for the most part, just fat. So... it has less calories than nuts.



It is completely safe to take on a daily basis. It has no negative side effects. It does however have a ton of positive heath benefits. Most people into working out (myself included) take it just because our diet HAS to consist of protein, carbs and fat, and flaxseed oil happens to be a perfect source of healthy fat that our diets require. This is actually just the beginning of its positive benefits.



Some of the giant list of flax seed oil benefits includes:



- Reduces the risk of cancer



- Helps lower cholesterol



- Helps lower blood pressure



- Protects against heart disease



- Aids the growth of healthy hair and nails



- Promotes healthy skin



- Many other really really good things

Go for a sexy short style to give your hair a chance to recover from EVERYTHING that you seem to be doing to it!!



And leave your hair alone for a good year (or more) and sue your stylist for the damage she has done. I'm serious. Her lack of attention could have seriously damaged the skin, let alone your hair.

go bald...let a new set of hair grow again...going bald is cool these days



Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

Get a good trim, maybe a short, stacked, pixie cut for now. It will get rid of that bad old hair. You'll have cute hair and the healthier bunch of hairs to start over with. Also, I know this sounds excessively "cheap," but you can get a box of ash blonde Revlon Colorsilk hair dye and go over the orange red with it, and it will work. It's not even 3 bucks, but it worked for me. Later on, you can go to someone, or yourself, when the hair is healthier, and get it bleached so you can go even blonder if you still feel like it.

give oil massage to hair on alternative days %26amp; take jonson baby shampoo to remove oily ness so that only oil would remove %26amp; no chemical would react on it...



Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

1. don't go back to her again



2. try natural oils. like coconut oil, jojoba oil, sweet almond oil, olive oil. leave them on after mixing them all off together.



3. cut off your hair. short hair is HOT! (haha, just joking. it's your opinion. i have short hair. ^^)



Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

okay.. take a deep breath relax



now, let's start from your food..



with your hair like this you need a lots of zinc and protein.



try to consume fish because it contains lots of zinc



beside that, try to consume fruits that contains vitamin e.. or you can buy vitamin e capsule.



now, for external treatment, try to use cream base product. and use aloe vera or avocado. hair mask can do wonders too. gud luck!



Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

cut an inch every six months and have a hair spa from time to time.... to relax ur hair



Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

seriously, don't use that hair salon/ hairdresser again.



my fried had seriously damged hair after bleaching and she went for a deep-conditioning treatment at a salon to help her hair out. If that's too pricey you could put a ton of conditioner on towel dried hair and leave it in over night, wearing a shower cap to protect it. when you rinse your hair out the next morning your hair should be much better.



I thik you should cut your hair shorter and just give your hair a rest for a while until dying it again.



Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

once a week you need to do a deep conditioning treatment ASWELL as a hair mask.



for the deep conditiong treatment, you will need to go to a beauty ssupply and buy cholesterol,after shampooing apply generously to your hair and put a plastic bag over your hair,then you will need to blow dry it for about 10 minutes then RINSE out.



the hair mask, the best one i reccomend is "enjoy hair care" 's hair mask.



trust me it does wonders



so once again you need to do each one , once a week, one at the beginning of the week and one at the end (ex: mon %26amp;fri)



Any advice on my EXTREMELY damaged hair? :(?

I so know what you mean.



I was annoyed with myself and bleached my hair. I left in too long and the hair turned into plastic. It was melted. Literally.



So today, I ended it up getting it cut off. And my hair feels and looks so much healthier.



It is very, very hard to treat dead hair when it is brittle, dry and damaged. I'm saying this from experience and numerous products that try to "repair" it.



However Schwarzkopf had very good deep conditioner treatments.

Finding curly hair styles on the net???

i am half black/white so i have medium length curly hair. it's that in between curly. white people consider it super curly but black people consider it looser curls.( maybe this helps to describe it) i want to go the a stylist to get a contemporary cut, but for me im very specific about what i want. the only way to get them to see what i want is to show a picture.



everywhere i look on the internet has white girls with straight hair made to look curly, the same pictures of beonce, halle berry etc... arethere any good web sites with people who actually have updated curly hairstyles ( it doesn't have to be just black women, just anyone with good curly hair)



thanks!

I am white.. but I do have very tight curls. Kinda like Shirley temple type curles.. Pretty much the only think I can do is the poof for the front bangs and then either let the rest chill or pull it back for either a fun look or just a casual or professional look. Either way the poof is in :]

I have the same problem, especially with finding good ones on the internet. I always use magazines instead. Go to like a borders or Barnes and nobles and just sit and browse through their magazines until you find a style you like. Then buy that magazine to show your stylist. You can also mix pictures, like if you want certain type of bangs (which can be from a straight style) and certain layers from a curly stle. Thats what I always do.

Having my boyfriend's long hair done in a pretty style: Suggestions?

My boyfriend has long, thick, honey blonde hair about 4 inches below his shoulders. I love playing with it and styling it. He's a really good sport about it and lets me do pretty much what I want--braids, curls, pigtails, updos. I think he secretly likes it, even though he complains and won't wear anything more interesting than a French braid in public!



Anyway, the situation is, even though his hair is long and healthy, it would look so much prettier if it were cut in a nice style. He's agreed to let me choose a style under the condition that it can pass as normal guy hair in a ponytail. My stylist (and friend) has even said that she'll come over and do his hair at my apartment so he doesn't have to go to the salon. So now I'm trying to decide on a style. I really want something with lots of pretty layers, but I'm worried it will end up being too girly for him.



Anyone out there have any suggestions of really nice pretty styles--preferably layered--that would work?



Having my boyfriend's long hair done in a pretty style: Suggestions?

Dont mess with it if it's broken. You boyfriend obviously is only agreeing to it to please you.



If you cut or layer it, it will be harder for you to put in a french braid and pigtails!!



Having my boyfriend's long hair done in a pretty style: Suggestions?

theres long layers, graduated layers, cascading layers.....



Having my boyfriend's long hair done in a pretty style: Suggestions?

I'm sorry...but there's just something wrong with referring to your boyfriend's hair as 'pretty.'



Having my boyfriend's long hair done in a pretty style: Suggestions?

I don't believe you will find an answer here worth listening to as it is such a difficult question to answer without seeing him and noting the texture of his hair as well as many other things. Does he have a skinny face, a round one a long one? I won't go into the many questions a stylist needs answered before deciding on a style because it's pointless. If your friend is a stylist and you both trust her to cut it, then she would be the person to help you out. And as for having it done in a pretty style.... well there are lots of pretty boy bands to get ideas from. yuk.
