One bad screw up at home... can cost you double your normal price to fix at the Salon. <br /><br />I am a dark brunette, who keeps her hair a lovely dark auburn. And I can achieve it using Clairol Nice and Easy. <br /><br />It is one of the oldest Clairol color lines. But it is by far their best home color to use.

Stylists get so upset when you do that though.

Without colour it looks pretty crappy. I think I will experiment later this year with home colouring as am moving away from my favorite hairdresser.

I don't even have cable TV or a fancy smartphone - but I spend way too much at the hair stylist every other month.<br /><br />I am not sure what to tell you on this one -- when my hair gets ugly it makes me despressed.Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14880982615521740741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-20826551431386714512012-02-05T18:06:36.611-08:002012-02-05T18:06:36.611-08:00I'm not graying so I just deal with the roots....I'm not graying so I just deal with the roots. I barely wash it, so that saves shampoo and makes it nice, lush and thick when I do. As for dyes, I wait until I see a good product on special and I switch up. Shoppers Drugmart has a good one but I'd consider buying that online. Some Banks let you charge up prepaid credit cards for 3 bucks. Spending as much as you do on hair a month is my plan for when I get rich... so... I assume you love looking good and changing your hair-do... Also check up tutorials on Youtube using these words: How to cut hair... :3 been doing it for 3 years now GOOD LUCK!Alice. R.

I used to spend well over $100 for my haircoloring at the salon, but then the grayer I got the more often I had to go and it was getting so expensive. So I started doing it myself at home. I like the Loreal because it is a base coat with the second highlight coat, so it's not flat looking like some haircolor can be.Pam Kesslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14830005036551331029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-8036921536948409462012-01-31T21:26:52.032-08:002012-01-31T21:26:52.032-08:00I have the same problem with the hair.
