    As Rachel would prefer to not use bleach in the service but would like to keep her hair at a level 8 then I would recommend using a tint application instead of another bleaching service that will cause further breakage and be less harsh on her hair. To match the colour of her ends I have chosen to use Kolosten Perfect 8/07 (light blonde natural brown). Using a tint on the natural regrowth will lift her natural level and will colour over her artificial colour on her ends.…

The two vendors researched were Alternative 1, Alicia Lee representing Dudley hair care products and Alternative 2, Frank Milam representing Design Essential hair care products. The criteria used to judge the two alternatives were as follows: price, service, quality and delivery.

    The best dye to use is Manic Panic. Their website is manicpanic.com. They even have little bleaching kits, perfect for dip-dying your tips. I used to bleach and dye my hair a different color every month when I was in high school. (my hair is hot pink and black in my senior picture) I have tried almost every semi-permanent metallic dye and that’s definitely what you see pictured above. The colors look like After Midnight Blue (dark blue), Bad Boy Blue (light blue), Hot Hot Pink (dark pink), and Cotton Candy Pink (light pink), all by M-P. I hope this helps.…

    There are many traits which I have that co-respond with the blue card. Sympathetic is a key trait in which I use when describing myself to others. When I watch movies, I put myself into various characters positions and I tend to cry if they are put in or dealing with stressful situations. I find myself doing this not only with fictional characters, but with my friends as well. Another trait from the blue card in which I associate myself with is enthusiasm . I tend to become very excited about various events. I believe that compassion walks hand in hand with sympathy therefor I believe I am compassionate as well. As I mentioned, I cry when my friends or fictional characters are put in stressful situations. In addition to crying, I try my best to help or pretend to help with the situation. I give my best advice and give them an example of how I felt in a similar situation and how it turned out. I like to believe it helps them in one way or another. .

    In my opinion, permanent hair coloring is bad for you. People may think if it is permanent, it is easier to do, but some disagree. If you were to keep changing your hair color, you would eventually lose your hair. You also have to bleach your hair to change your hair color. You may think if you dye hair, they get respect, but there are consequences to hair coloring. That is why I suggest that you just use spray that is none permanent. I think that permanent hair coloring is bad.…

    I’ve always wanted to dye my hair fun colors. My older sister Kayla used to dye her hair colors when she was in high school so I wanted to do it too. At the school I used to go to, you could not have any unnatural hair color, I couldn't wait to get into high school so I could dye my hair. I asked and asked my parents for weeks over the summer if and when I could dye my hair. After a very long time of asking, they finally said I could. Since I didn’t want to be too expensive and go to a salon, I went to my friend Cindy who knows how to do hair and stuff to dye mine lavender. About two or three days before the first day of school, we started the hair dying process. On the first day, we did two lightening treatments to make my hair very blonde…

    Organic Amla Powder combined with the right quantity of dried powdered Organic Henna creates brown to rich maroon tones, which blend naturally with your hair type and color hair without drying them out even afterwards. This action of Amla and Henna combination extracted organically is markedly different from chemical colorants which modify hair strands and considerably reduce their strength, making extreme conditioning part of your daily routine. More and more chemicals applied to already weakened hair strands create more damage than good. Therefore, opting for a natural organic hair colorant like Organic Amla powder combined with Henna is the best option for healthy…
