Should I do it....? I'm trying to decide whether or not to get blonde highlights in my hair. :D I've never dyed my hair or done anything drastic like that to it (I know, I'm over dramatic. haha). But I'm starting high school and I've decided it's time to add in some variety to my life lol.There is a woman in my church who is amazing at hair, and she gave my friend highlights. They look so natural and gorgeous. So I'm trying to talk myself into having her do it for me. Is there anyone on here who has gotten blonde highlights? Got any pictures? Pros or cons? Thanks! :) (I don't have any pictures where you can really see my hair right now because I'm sleeping over my aunt's house. But my hair is just like brown and straight. and really thick.) |
Go for it girl! It's fun and if you don't like it, a bottle of Clairol covers it right back up again:p Good luck and be sure to show a pic if you do it! |
I love blonde highlights, but you have to keep up with it. Your brown hair comes in fast! Plus, when you keep getting highlights, eventually your hair will look predominantly blonde. It also makes my hair very dry. I do it every once in a while, but I usually die my hair back to brown when it gets too blonde. :p |
No. And you should stop growing up right now! |
Girl - if you were my daughter I'd say yes because you're going on 16 - I think you'd love the change and if done right will frame your face nicely. It will enhance your self esteem and that's always a good thing - So go ahead and do it - you have pretty hair Megan and as long as you don't turn into a hussy then YES !!! :p :p |
I say do it, it really puts some dimension in your hair so it's not just one flat dull color, you'll love it....if you know someone who's good at what they do, that's a big plus.... My granddaughter and a few put in her hair and it looks like she has been sitting in the sun, it's very pretty.... The down side....ROOTS!!......the upkeep stinks....I've been getting highlights for years, I started out with about 60% my natural color and 40% highlights, after a few years it looked like I had blonde hair with very little highlights showing, the colorist had to put in lowlights (a darker color ) and highlights to get it back to where it was...Every time they do a highlight job they never do the exact same strands they're different ones so eventually all my hair was highlighted....it's back to where it should be now...Good Luck!!. |
Go girl! You'll look and feel great. |
I use to have blonde highlights, and if you have darker hair, you have to go get in done atleast every 2 months. And I just got tired of sitting at the salon all day. But if you want to, I say go for it!!! Post some pics if you get it done. :) |

I have highlights and LOVE THEM...but you really do have to stay on top of them or they look horrible. i go every 6 weeks on the dot to get mine touched up. so if you are ready for that commitment, then GO FOR IT!!! i suggest getting them "weaved" in the first time. i like mine being weaved in rather than pulled through the cap. but that's just me :) |
I say go for it. I have had highlights put in my hair for over 40 years now...and my daughter has highlights...and my10 year old granddaughter even has highlights in her hair. You will love them. |
i love love love my blond highlights. i say DO IT!!!!!!!!! |
2 Attachment(s) Thanks guys!! I'm still a bit nervous because it seems like whenever I see someone my age with blonde highlights, it looks like they took a marker and drew yellow stripes in their hair. But I'm sure since the woman I'm going to ask to do mine is so good, they'll be OK. PS - This is what my hair looks like now. (don't mind the disgustingness of the back. I haven't washed it or anything yet today haha). |
Hi You have the same lenth my daughter has, She is getting married on sat, and went and got highlights, It turned out so nice, I think you would love it.I say go for it:D :D and please post pics;) |
I say 'go for it' Megan. You're starting high school and I can see where you would want it and I think it would be beautiful. Your hair looks so blonde already in the second pic?? |
I say do it....but you do have to keep up with it like someone else already said. I love highlights though - i am sure it will look great. :thumbup: Too funny...I am all blond and wanting to go brown - ha, ha....I just had my girl add brown into my blond hair - i guess we are never 100% happy with what we have naturally huh? :p :p |
