Lightening your hair can be a great way to change our look and reflect a different outlook. Or bring in the summer, or herald a new job or period in your life. If you can't afford to go to a salon, try these tips on how to lighten your hair to avoid brassy and badly damaged hair.
* When doing regrowth, don't apply all the hair color to all of your head. Follow the instructions on the packet, which always say to apply color first to the roots, for a specified period of time. Then, apply the lightener to the rest of your hair. If you don't do this, you will end up effectively dissolving the ends of your hair. And even the parts of the hair shaft that don't quite get to that stage will be severely weakened and quite likely to break off very easily.
You may need a friend to help you lighten your hair, but at least the extra effort will mean you have a better looking color, and better hair condition.
* Use a brush and section the hair. Its much easier to apply the lightener evenly this way. Use clips to keep the rest of your hair out of the way whilst you work on each section.
