I`m going to get my hiar done today. Could I have my hair colored, and then highligted too, within the same day? I`ve colored my hair many times before, and my hair never gets dried out. I used to have blonde hair with highlights, but I`ve had dark brown (almost black) for quite a while now, I don`t find it attractive anymore. I lighented it up quite a bit a few weeks ago, and I want it to be blonde again, but not without highlights. Will it be okay for me to ask for it to be highlighted also today?

Hi,

The best way to tell if this will work for your hair is to do a little isolated strand test first before you do the entire hair. If your hair is healthy and you test a few strands before doing your whole head...you should be in good shape...if the test turns out good.

If you are going to a salon...the stylist should be able to tell you if your hair can handle both color processes at the same time.

Let us know how it turns out.

Best wishes,
Karen
