Two weeks ago, in an attempt to save $, I decided that giving myself a foiled (don't know the technical term) highlight was a good idea. Having watched many colorists perform this seemingly easy task, I thought I could get the hang of it after a few tries. Out comes the box-coloring and aluminium foil cut up into little squares. 2 hours later: Orange top later of hair with brown blotches and underneath, darker brown hair...damaged, frizzy and just gross. I looked like an electrified Garfield (the cat).
For those of you on a budget who may attempt this feat, Aveda Institute on Clark Street can make you whole again for the small cost of $55. And they use great product. Just be prepared to wear a baseball cap for 2 weeks until the appointment.
