I like highlights, but I see too many girls with cheesy bad highlihghts.. i don't like when they're all stripy or obvious. i like when it's either subtle or a little punky.. not when it's like striped panels. i especially dislike how it seems like every brunette girl needs to get a bunch of inappropriate blond highlights all over.

i'm getting highlights next week but i'm a little nervous that i won't like it. i like the idea of adding colour, but highlights sometimes seem cliched. should i have asked to have my whole head colored instead of highlights? the stylist wants to go 2 tones lighter in the highlights.. is that close enough to my natural tone to look okay?

sounds like the highlights SHOULD be ok...as long as their natural and your stylist knows that...better yet, find a pic you like a take it with you


or get lowlights, my friend gets those and they looks wonderful on her
