highlighted/lowlighted hair HELP

Hi there!I am in the EXACT same predicament as you are, so don't feel alone :) I get pretty frustrated too! I think it is that stylist don't want to apply ashe colors-- they are always talking about warming things up..... I guess it could be the your stylist is only using a temporary color on your hair and that is why it is washing out, or maybe she's trying to choose a color that compliments your highlighted hair best, instead of using your natural color. Also, when my stylist dooes my blonde foils, she uses a high lift color, and I beleive it has a built in timer in it-- I guess the best thing for us BOTH to do is to talk to our stylist the next time we visit!!! Hopefully William will help out too :)Sherry~> Hi, this question is for WILLIAM, or anyone else who> has an opinion! My natural hair color is ash brown.
