Highlights for dark hair: 2012

Neck hair?

For years I have shaved the hair on the back of my neck that falls below my natural hair line. The hair was always wirery and curly and never would look right when trying to wear my hair up. So I had my stylist create a nice hair line like you would if you were a guy getting his hair cut. I have kept this clean and trimmed for years. Then I have moved and have gone through several different stylist. And they always react weird to the fact that I get rid of this hair. Why is that? I think it looks more well kept than a bunch of curly hair on the back of your neck like some other girls I see. Is it really that uncommon to shave your neck hair if you are a woman?

Neck hair?

I always shave those little hairs that won't go up into a ponytail. It looks cleaner and gives you a nice presentable hairline. I don't think it's weird at all! I just do it myself. My hairstylist has never thought it was strange.

Neck hair?

i don't think so..i don't do it but i don't think its very unusual..see if their hair is like that =] it probably is a mess in the back too..suggest they get it cut haha lol no i don't think its unusual by the way im on mi brother's account so dont thyink im a guy answering this =]

Neck hair?

i have never heard of it! i also think that if it makes you feel better go right ahead. some chicks dont shave their legs or underarms and some might think that is weird. the stylist should just be happy to do what you ask them to. very unprofessional of them to react like that. i know a few guys who pluck their eyebrows and it makes them look more clean or something. cant think of the word. more maintained i guess. lots of people think that is unusual, i mean for the guy. i dont think its unusual though but i have never heard of it being done.

Tipping my stylist?

I just got my hair cut at the same salon/day spa that I have been going to for over 2 years. Unfortunately, my regular stylist no longer works there, and I don't know where she works now. So, I had a new stylist working on my hair. It also seems like the business itself has made a few changes.

Before, with my previous stlylist, I just paid her. This time, the stylist took me to the front desk, wrote up a ticket that she gave to me, and left. I gave the ticket to the girl at the desk and she checked me out. I wasn't sure what to do about the tip. I didn't feel comfortable giving it to the girl at the desk, so I just didn't give one. I feel bad about this.

I'm not sure if I'll go back. The service was a little better, in some ways, but not as good in others.

Does anyone know the appropriate way to handle this payment situation, as far as tipping goes?

Tipping my stylist?

If you were not pleased in any way, then, no should not have tipped. Never feel forced to tip out of guilt or neccessity. A tip is a Kudos of sorts for good work.

In the future, as the stylist is writing up the ticket, you can then give them the tip. And it happens, so don't feel bad. It is not like you tried to slight her on purpose.

If you felt unconfortable, I would find out where the other stylist went, to continue going to her. You can do that by calling your salon and asking, but if they are being immature, you may have to call to similar salons in the city. BTW: in the future when you have a stylist that you like a lot, give them your contact information, so that if they are going to move on they can keep up with you.

Tipping my stylist?

Yeah you walk back to your stylist's station and give her the tip. I can't believe you stiffed her without asking anybody where you could tip her.

Tipping my stylist?

Some of those stylists make more than half their living in tips, and otherwise would make peanuts, so maybe remember that.

Tipping my stylist?

I'm a hairstylist and if i was in that situation of having to direct my clients to the front desk,I would just advice my clients of how the payments are only accepted at the front desk.As stylist and as a client to my friends i personally give them a tip before they take me to the check out. i hope i helped out

Tipping my stylist?

I give the girl up front a tip, and tell her to give it to the gal that cut my hair.

Tipping my stylist?

it's usually understood that if you leave a tip at the reception desk, that tip is meant for your stylist; next time say, "hey, i'd like to leave this for Brenda..." and give reception the tip.

Hair stylists please read!?

ok well, i have about shoulder length dark brown hair, my natural color is auburn, and i went about a month ago to have it died light brown, the person messed up and died it to a 2 (a shade lighter than black) i was so mad so i went to my friend, and she put this stuff on it called vanish and its mainly sulfur, wich lightened it to a light brown, orange, so she put shades on it to make it a warm brown. i HATE my hair so i went to sallys and bought extensions, and manic panic cotton candy pink dye, and 30 volume bleach. i made a coon tail, and now i want to bleach my hair. so i cut a little piece of my hair off and put in the bleach for over forty five minutes... not a thing happened???

whats wrong? please explain in DETAIL.

thanks%26lt;33

Hair stylists please read!?

You have a lot of semi permanent haircolor build up on your hair. Between the major build up from Shades EQ and Manic Panic, you might need to apply a color remover. Sally has Uncolor remover, you might want to try that, then recolor over top.

You have 3 - 4 layers of color on you hair. It's just the same as if you are painting a wall. 3 - 4 layers of paint doesn't remove that easily.

I would be a little hesitant to do this yourself, as you could really damage your hair. With so much product on it, already, you may just want to have a hairdresser do it, to ensure you don't break your hair off.

Although you applied bleach for 45 minutes, it could be that you need to mix up a fresh batch and reapply every 20 - 30 minutes to really remove the build up. Bleach can be left on the hair up to 90 minutes, however, it's not recommended if your hair is already damaged with so many color processes, especially with the sulfur product, be very careful.

Hair stylists please read!?

shave it and buy a few wigs no biggie we have all done it

Hair stylists please read!?

See a professional hair stylist.

Hair stylists please read!?

hard to tell it could be you mixed the bleach wrong i would use 40 vol, and try another sample to make sure. If it does not work go see a stylist.... I'm very blond myself...

Hair stylists please read!?

You need to go get it done professionally. The bleach you bought may not be strong enough to strip out the manic panic. I have been a stylist for 7 yrs and I'm well aware of how bad manic panic can be and it doesn't come out easy, you may end up with some realllllly damaged hair. Don't attempt it yourself!

Goodluck!

Hair stylists please read!?

As a stylist I'm telling you go to a stylist. You don't know what you're doing and you're gonna fry your hair right off your head. You can take my advice or "Quit your bi*chin' cuz you did it in the kitchen".

Need hair style and stylists in L.A?

I need to get a good haircut and color. The last two haircuts I asked for layers and even brought in a pic! All I got was a crappy blunt cut with no layers. Anyone have any good styles? I have dark blond hair straight, to the middle of my back. I am a mom and need something to go into a ponytail but that can be styled. I have worn it long and straight parted in the middle since high school. I also need a good salon that has people trained to help you get a good cut that looks good with the hair texture, face shape etc. No fantastic sams!! I don't care what the price is! (within reason, I can't afford a $600 hair cut :) Good colorists too, let me know if you know any good places in L.A. or Riverside County CA. Let me know THANKS

Need hair style and stylists in L.A?

Actually and factually J%26gt;C%26gt; Penney's has good stylist, go in and talk to them before making the appointment, sort of feel them out and pick the one you like best, I've never had a bad cut!

Need hair style and stylists in L.A?

I go to a lady who's a color specialist in riverside county...

she's amazing!

if you bring in a photo, she'll tell you everything about it and you...

how it would look on you, what factors you have to consider (face shape, hair texture, hair thickness)

and if she thinks the one you have your heart set on isn't good for you (and she's a good judge) than she'll recommend a cut that is similar but will work for you..

I love her, she's awesome, if you want her number, message me!

Wat should I do wit my hair???

I just got my hair highlighted and cut, the stylist used mousse while it was wet and sprayed it wit something and then put some oily stuff on it, she blowdried it and flipped the ends out but now I am afraid to wash my hair because I think that I won't be able to get my hair the way it was... wat should I do???

Wat should I do wit my hair???

Stop worrying about it so much you shallow cow.

Wat should I do wit my hair???

You're going to have to wash it at some point. Call your stylist and ask what products she used and what kind of brushes you will need to replicate the style. I never get my hair like my hairstylist does because they have blowdryers and hair straighteners that are much better than mine.

Wat should I do wit my hair???

call the stylist and ask her the products that she used and then go to the local store and see if u can get them and then wash ur hair and do it u can use a straighter too instead of a brush and blow drier ask the shampoo and condition as well sometimes if u get the right products it will help to get it the way u have it when they did it

Wat should I do wit my hair???

i think u must be careful when do something like that

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

Where i get my hair cut there is a separate person who washes hair, and then the stylist. How much to tip each? This has always confused my, I am never sure who i should tip.

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

You don't. You're already paying the asking price for the service. Why the hell should you pay more?

The expectation of tips in the US has gotten out of hand. Do you tip a pilot, working for Major Airline X, as you get off the plane? He or she just provided you a service by getting you safely across the country. I don't see too many tip jars by the cockpit door.

Just because somebody makes a wage in whatever job below a certain range does not entitle the rest of us to give them a little extra "just to help." If that person feels stiffed, then he or she should find another position or another career field and earn a wage commensurate with his or her skills.

The person who invented tips probably also came up with the phrase, "There's a sucker born every minute."

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

2-5 dollars is just fine

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

$2 for the hair washing person, 20% for the haircutter. If it's a nice place.

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

Hairdresser:15% to 20%. (It is now acceptable to tip owner, unless he or she says otherwise.)

Shampoo person:$2

I got this off of a website... however, i would never tip the shampoo person only $2... i think $5 is much better.. $2 seems really cheap...

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

no more than 5 dallors

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

i tip the shampoo girl $5 and the hairdresser 20%

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

your tip should be "thank-you", or "mo hair"

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

Well it comes down to what you feel they were worth I guess. Me persionally I usually tip my stylist $5 and throw an extra $2 or $3 to the person that washes my hair. Quite honestly the hairwashing is the best part of the haircut, it's always nice when some one massages your scalp.

How much to tip hair dresser, and hair washing person?

Depends on your hairdresser~ if their are two people working on you, they normally split the tip. Usually the hairdresser spends more time on you than the person washing your hair.

Again depends on your hairdresser~ If she's loyal,takes her time, treats you like a Queen~ she's gentle, talkative, offers you a soda, don't ask alot of questions~ I usually give half of what it cost.

I'm not saying I'm picky but if I'm there setting for two hours having highlights, style. I'll pay her well!

How to care for bleached hair?

I am having major second thoughts about bleaching all of my hair light blonde this saturday. Well, l'm having a hair stylist %26amp; hair instructor do the bleaching cutting, %26amp; coloring.

I bleached the front part of my hair about a month ago, can I bleach it again lighter?

%26amp;

How should I take care of my bleached hair without having it break off/brittleness/falling out? :x

I know it is risky and I'm freaking out, but honestly, it there anything else that would work?

How to care for bleached hair?

I do not think you should bleach your hair.It's going to get really dry and fried.

How to care for bleached hair?

I think you should just get chunky highlights. If i was you i would not bleach my whole head. Just my opinion

How to care for bleached hair?

yes, you can bleach it lighter.. you should use that dove repairing shampoo and conditionerafterwards

Long Layers [hair stylists PLEASE answer]?

I have been reading up on how to cut your own layers and I have read two different ways to do it.

I know all the steps I would just like someone to clear this one up for me, perferably a hair dresser or someone who has done this before with success.

After you comb your hair and put it in a pony tail on the center/top of your head it says to put your head upside down and cut straight across the bottom or to which ever legnth you prefer. Another says to "twist your hair into a spiral" then cut straight across.

So do I twist my hair before I cut or just comb it straight then cut, and is there a difference between the two?

Long Layers [hair stylists PLEASE answer]?

If you truly want "Long" layers it is NOT a good idea to put your hair in a ponytail on the top of your head and cut "straight" across ... you will most likely end up with shoulder length shaggy. In all honesty I would not advise ponytail cutting as you will end up with short patches in all the wrong places especially if you twist it!! I say this because if you twist the hair you will have the hair not being consistent in where it goes, some hair will not twist around as far as other hair. You could end up with a bunch being longer or shorter than you really want thus creating patches( and that is bad enough when a stylist does it to you!!!)

You can put your hair up in a ponytail and "angle cut" to achieve the longer layers...by angle cut I mean cutting closer to the scalp at the crown( about 3" or a bit longer depending on how long you want the top to be) at the back of your head, then angling out to a tip towards your nose as you extend your arms forward.

To end up with a better "layer cut" you comb your hair from back of your head to front and angle trim from your brow out as you extend your arms.When doing the sides you would bring them from the back forward and up to the brow ( not to the side by the cheeks) Always try to end up at the same point in front of your nose above your forehead.

But then again for the "long layers" you really should not attempt this on your own as your arms reach will limit, I don`t know any stylist that do this to themselves ( that may be for good reason as they too have reverse cut issues, meaning it is tough for them to cut backwards too lol)

Long Layers [hair stylists PLEASE answer]?

I read about that pony tail thing too, I want to do it but I'm scard lol... its worth a try but only cut alittle first to see how it comes out or you can test on a barbie lol

Long Layers [hair stylists PLEASE answer]?

Go to sally beauty and get a mankin to practice on. Try it on a mankin head first, then it it turns out good/right how you want go 4 it. Or get it done professionally

Long Layers [hair stylists PLEASE answer]?

Well, my hairstylist twist my hair and then cut it. (he only grabs a few pieces at a time...he DOESN'T grab the whole hair, twist it, and then cut it...he just picks up a few small pieces.)

*edit

Sorry if i don't make any sense...and the manikin idea is good too.

Long Layers [hair stylists PLEASE answer]?

go spend 15 bucks at fantastic sams....as horrible as those stylists are....they will do a better job than you can.

How do i get Nancy O'dells hair color and cut at the salon?

If anyone has watched The oscars or access hollywood you would know who im takn about shes the prettiest one there. I would like to get her hair colro it looks soo pretty, but it looks like there is 5 biullion diff colors in it? Does anyone know what colors or how many and what i should tell my stylist i want? Plus is she naturally that tan??

or does she have to fake bake all the time to keep that dark color?

How do i get Nancy O'dells hair color and cut at the salon?

no one is htat tan!!! also just get a dyer and do it yourslef!!! enjoy! o and if you really wnat adviece, DON'T DO IT!!!SHE LOOKS LIKE AN UGLY %$@%26amp;*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How do i get Nancy O'dells hair color and cut at the salon?

First of all, she is NOT that tan naturally. She spray tans all the time. About the color of her highlights, take a color pic with you to the salon so they know exactly what you are talking about.

How do i get Nancy O'dells hair color and cut at the salon?

Spray on tan and shower it off each night. Tell a really good hair burner what you want and show her a picture. Hair burners hate (hate) customers who do this as the hairburner wants to tell you if that will not look good on you and does not dare too tell you. Make sure you get one who will be honest and that you are ready to hear if it will not work on your head and body. Then don't do it if it will not work. If it works and you have a hairburner who is honest with you and you with her, you are set. Good luck.

Is there a stylist out there that can tell me what style cut is for a round face, short neck?

I have tried all different cuts and I really like a shorter cut. I am in my 50's so I do not want long hair. I would love to ask a NY known stylist, except I live in PA. Any real suggestions?

Is there a stylist out there that can tell me what style cut is for a round face, short neck?

I like the idea of a cut really short in the back, kind of stacked, and the sides gradually come to a point just below the ears.I have seen this cut on a few people and it also looks to be pretty easy to deal with on a daily basis. I think the hair that comes down beside the ears will make your face seem more narrow and the shorter hair in the back will keep your neck on display. Hope you can see in your head the cut the way I see it.

Is there a stylist out there that can tell me what style cut is for a round face, short neck?

yes, at your local hair salon.

its best because they can actually SEE you.

unlike us people, just an explanation wont do any god.

Is there a stylist out there that can tell me what style cut is for a round face, short neck?

I have the best success with haircuts if I pour through hair magazines and other beauty magazines and cut out a few images of hairstyles that I think would suit me. Something about having those images that makes it easier for the stylist to understand what I am looking for and they make other suggestions about tweaking it to fit my face and hair type.

Is there a stylist out there that can tell me what style cut is for a round face, short neck?

Go to www.thehairstyler.com. They allow you to enter a picture of yourself, and animate different hairstyles and colors on your picture giving you a view of what you like. They also have you type in your face shape, eye color, skin type, height, and gives you an overall sight of what hair cut, style, and color is best for you. Hope this helps! Good luck!

Is there a stylist out there that can tell me what style cut is for a round face, short neck?

I had the best style for my round face, it was really stylish and easy to fix..Look for pictures of the actress, LISA RINNA, she has the same cut, its really cute and I had the most compliments when mine was that style...:)

Professional hair salon in Lansing Michigan area?

It's finally time to go get my hair cut again, and I'm ready to get that much shorter hairstyle I've been afraid to get at the cheap salons I normally go to. I want to go to a professional salon where I don't have to hear "oops" or feel totally disappointed at the job the stylist did with my hair. If I get it cut as short as I want it, I wont have the option to go somewhere else and have them try to fix it. It doesn't have to be a real big upscale salon or anything just one with a younger crowd who know what the hell kind of haircut I want done. Any ideas?

Professional hair salon in Lansing Michigan area?

sorry only know an awesome one in Commerce Twp MI.

wat u can do is use conditioner when u wash it to give it volume and straighten it also for a sleek look. if u dont wanna do that, seventeen magazine usually gives hairstyles u can do by urself at home.

there are electrical cutting tool kits you can buy and cutting combs that can be used as guide are included. if you already know the basics of hair cutting you may try it at your own risk, but you probably want a friend who knows how to cut hair to help you the first few times. i wouldn't dare to cut my own hair cos its hard to recover

How can I learn to cut my own hair?(books, web etc) It's very thick and frizzy. Stylists rarely do a good job.

What You Need

You'll need a quiet, comfortable place with a big mirror (bathroom or bedroom), good lighting, a spray bottle of water, a hand mirror, hair clips, time, patience, plus a comb and sharp pair of scissors. Sharp scissors are important, as dull scissors will result in a dull cut.

Prepare Your Hair

It's easier to cut slightly damp hair, as opposed to completely wet. Cutting wet hair (especially bangs) can result in a too-short style. It is also easier to cut clean hair. When you are ready, slightly dampen your hair with a spray bottle of water. If your hair dries as you're cutting, re-spray as needed.

Be Patient

Remember, it is better to cut too little than too much, and don't try to rush.

Single Length Hair

Hair that is one length all the way around is a straightforward trim. Just follow the procedure for bangs (below), snipping the same amount off your ends in small sections. When you're finished trimming, comb or brush to your usual style and check the back with a hand mirror.

Bangs

For multi-length hair, start with your bangs. Comb them straight, being careful not to include side hairs. Next, take your bangs between your index and middle fingers and pull them down until a line of about 1/4-inch of hair is showing. Carefully trim approximately half of that (1/8-inch) all the way across. Check the length and repeat if necessary.

Don't try to trim too much length at once. Holding shorter lengths for cutting (1/4-inch) keeps the hairs firmly in place as you cut.

You can make the line of your bangs less blunt-looking by diagonally cutting the tips of a few strands of hair across your bangs. But, only cut a few. Be careful not to overdo.

Sides and Layers

The next step is your layers, if any, and the side angles of your hair. If you have layers all over, you will be following them, top to bottom, front to back. If your hair is all one length except for the side angles, you will be working along the sides of your style only, front to back.

Choose a top layer or side piece of hair approximately the same size and thickness as you did for your bangs. This smaller amount is easiest to work with. If you try to hold and cut too much at once, the result will be uneven. Remember that you want to follow your original lengths.

You will be able to pick out layers of similar lengths by using your comb as a guide and holding the hairs between your index and middle fingers, as you did with your bangs. Slide your fingers down to leave a fairly straight line of 1/4-inches showing. Then, like your bangs, trim approximately 1/8-inch all the way across. For side angles, follow the same technique, being sure to angle your index and middle fingers to follow the angle of your hair.

This is where hair clips come in handy. As you are trimming the higher layers or lengths first, use a clip to keep each finished section up and out of the way.

The Back

Dealing with the back of your hair might seem tricky, but you'll get the hang of it. Take your time, make use of your hand mirror, and work patiently in sections, as above, clipping them up as you go.

When you're satisfied that you've trimmed all you need to trim, style your hair as usual (re-dampen and use a product on your hair, if you normally do). Voila! A fresh cut and no money spent.

hope it helps!

Hi Cas,

Well while its very difficult to cut one's own hair, it is possible. I am a retired hairdresser, and I cut my own hair. I get a mirror, and hold it in front of me, while looking in it at the mirror behind me..... I then deciede how much to cut, and I am right handed, so I wet my hair, and comb out a strand about 1" in diameter. And cut. snip snip....and continue across the bottom, for the length...checking in both mirror's,,,,then I use a pair of thinning shears and start at the crown, and just cut....and wherever it feels the thickest,,,,and continue around the crown. Eventully you run out of hair to cut. Then I leave the bangs for last.... cuz I try to save the hardest for last. Once the line is in place for the length ya want em at, then I pick em up and measure them using my comb. Then I layer em' for fullness .... It takes time. but it can be done....

Not sure this helps you,,,but its how I cut my own hair ...and have been cutting it for over 30 years....

Any Beauticians, Hair stylists and African-American females out there?

What treatment would you recommend for severely damaged hair? My beautician told me today that my 14 year old daughter's hair is going through severe breakage; what can we do to treat it at home without having to go to the salon every week for the next couple of months? We are desparate since she does not want to cut her hair.

Any Beauticians, Hair stylists and African-American females out there?

Mayo!! Don't laugh, I"m serious. It's a great conditioner. Just put it on after shampooing, let it stay on the hair for 30-45 minutes w/ a plastic bag covering it, apply light heat w/ a blow dryer.. Than shampoo and condition as normal.

Even tho your daughter does not want to cut her hair, split ends are going to happen, breakage is going to happen, it's best to get a TRIM at least every 6-8 weeks. Getting a trim helps the hair grow rather than prohibiting it.

Good luck!!

Any Beauticians, Hair stylists and African-American females out there?

deep conditioners, Vo5 Hot oil treatment is great too.

u might want to try Henna- my mom uses it and it does her hair wonders. she mixes it with egg, avacado, and any other natural ingredients said to be good for the hair. You can buy Henna for hair in any Indian or Pakastani shop. It also naturally colors the hair too! If you leave it on for 24 hours and wash it out its really good. but if you don't want to try that...

i think its all about keeping the hair clean, moisturized and not putting too much stress or pressure on it. avoid chemicals, like relaxers/perms. keep it natural for best results, if she wants her hair straight use a chi or ceramic iron, but just leaving the hair alone is whats best.

if my hair were damaged i would just cut the damages ends and regrow the hair b/c damaged hair just looks unhealthy.

u can also try Pantene Pro-V for women of color.Get the whole line of products.I guarantee you will see a big difference in her hair.And you must trim the dead ends or the hair will not grow.Also you can use a treatment called placenta.You can find it in any beauty supply store.

Breakage can be caused by many different reasons, from poor diet, vitamin deficiancy, and certain hair styles even, among many other things. So there are many things that can be done, at home, depending on what the reasoning behind the breakage.

Make sure that she is eating a well balanced diet with a large variety of fruits %26amp; vegetables, lean protiens, and whole grains. Have her take multi-vitamins on a daily basis, because no matter how well a person eats, the nutrients in foods aren't nearly what they used to be "back in the day".

Get a good nourishing shampoo %26amp; conditioner, something for dry damaged hair. While salon exclusive brands are very good, it's not always necessary to spend that kind of money, there are many very good products availiable in the stores at reasonable prices. And at least once a week, use a deep conditioning treatment, or hot oil treatment. Very dry hair is more suseptible to breakage.

Have her avoid wearing her hair tied up, especially in the same place, as often as possible. Avoid constant wearing of extensions, no matter how applied because these add extra stress to the hair and scalp.

She may not want to cut her hair, but until her hair is back to a healthy status, she should go in about every 3 weeks for a small trim. Once it is back to healthy, she should go in at least every 6-8 weeks for a good trim and continue avoiding styles that can cause excessive damage.

In my shop we sell alot of redkin deep fuel, its a little blue box with 6 tubes in it. You use 1 tube a week . You will be amazed after the first one, also trim not cut, at least every 6 weeks. The faster you get that bad hair off the better. Also maybe try Biolodge Hydrating shampoo and Conditioning Balm daily or every other day its good in between treatments.The redkin costs approx. 30.00 it works and still cheaper than a weekly trip to the salon.

Any Beauticians, Hair stylists and African-American females out there?

try a protein hair treatment that is good for breakage. also have you daughter eat foods that have vitamin d, protein (etc) that are good for hair breakage. also do not blow dry her hair often b/c that leads to breakage. put rollers instead and dry it under a hair dryer. also limit using curling/straightening irons cause this too damage hair. if your daughter has a perm, then maybe the type of perm may cause this (esp. if it has lye in it). also get rid of split ends about every 2-3 months is helpful. make sure beautician knows how to cut well and not cut off too much.

Any Beauticians, Hair stylists and African-American females out there?

Keep the hair deep conditioned. I love Queen Helen's product and it is not expensive at all. Also make sure she wraps her hair every night and puts a silk scarf over it. She also wants to keep some type of oil on her hair as well. Also look for an hairstyle that does not require her to put any bands in her hair.

When I damaged my hair I kept it the wrap hair style and it snapped back into shape after a while. You must know there is no saving the really damaged hair and even she does not cut it it will break off.

Marisabel on West Waters is the best, they do all kinds of hair types, my friends mother came down for her wedding from Haiti with a short, cropped almost buzz-cut and they gave her a natural update for $65 with past-shoulder length sew-in extensions...great job, great service, cost based on hair length and difficulty as well as hair's condition.

also try Melanee's on East Busch near Busch Gardens, or Bliss (has a full extension, no glue for about $99 special sometimes)

How would I go about getting a cut like this?

http://cache.viewimages.com/xc/71737569....

My hair is dark brown. What would I ask a hair stylist for if I wanted this cut? It looks like some hair at the front is tucked behind, is that a side fringe or what?

Thanks!

How would I go about getting a cut like this?

leigh lezak i used to have my hair like this like 3 years ago

well its called an a-line (the hairstyle) hers is a long a-line and she just parts it to the side... so take the photo and tell her you want a long a-line

its shorter from the back and gets longer and longer in the front

tell your stylist that you would like a long diagonal forward thats not so dramatic. :)

Hair stylists only please.?

I am having a very hard time growing my hair. I believe this is why. back in july of 2003 I had a total hysterectomy. Since then when I cut my hair, then after a few months try to grow it again it does not. Before this I would cut it, then when I wanted long hair again with in 2 months it would be shoulder lenght, now nothing. I have taken bioten, pre-natal vitamins, tried mane %26amp; tail %26amp; other products that I was told would help %26amp; nothing. If you can please help I would be greatly appreciated.

Hair stylists only please.?

try a menthol based shampoo, I suggest american crew ( i think its daily revitalising shampoo, i forget) The menthol in the shampoo or conditioner stimulates the hair follicle and encourages growth.

Hair stylists only please.?

eat a lot of green leaves and try hair oils....

Hair stylists only please.?

Your problem is probably the lack of hormones in your body from the hysterectomy.

Your hair is a by-product of your bodies health.

I would first see your doctor and have a hormone panel done. If you can take bio identical hormones to replace what is missing, you will see progress in your hair loss.

If this was a result of cancer, that may not be an option.

Is your diet healthy? You must eat protein and have a balanced diet high in B vitamins. B6, B4 and B12 (for stress).

Are you a smoker. Smoking cuts off oxygen to your system and could be a contributing factor. See a stylist. Understand you may not be able to have what you want with out using artifical means (hair extensions, pieces, etc).

Your hair may be reacting to stress. If you are having alot of anxiety about this, it will reflect in your hair.

Take care of yourself.

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

well i have ***** grow hair and i did cut it off but the only things is how do i keep the split ends away my hair is growing but every time i get my hair done my stylist is always cut down again because she said that i have a lot of split-ends and what would be the best way to get ride of them cause i like my hair but i get tried of get it cut all the time due to my split-ends

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

It sounds like your hair is probably prone to dryness. (Mine was like that too)

Some of the things that you can do is to make sure you use a really good shampoo and conditioner. You may want to consider doubling up on the conditioner - one when you wash it and one spray leave it conditioner. (I use both and it makes my hair baby soft)

Speaking to a cosmetician at a pharmacy will help you pick out the best.

Only blow-dry if you really really have to. It dries out your hair which makes it prone to splitting and breaking. If you can let it air-dry and then style it you will see a big difference in no time.

Also keep away from any hair care products that have alcohol or wax in it. Generally products made for "black" hair are much better quality then those for "white" hair, but again the cosmetician should be able to help you out.

Lastly, I recommend keeping away from metal brushes, combs and barrettes, etc. Metal products are hard on the hair and can cause a lot of breakage.

I hope that helps! Good luck!

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

Burn the ends of them with a lighter so that it closes and bcomes more stronger. i do it all the time it really works.

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

grease it more often with hair food

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

OK. you should use Garnier Fructis length and strengthen. its an anti-split end hair treatment and its kind of like lotion for your hair. you should use it right out of the shower. it works for me and I've only been using it for a week. and you just leave it in your hair. it keeps split ends away and it makes your hair really shiny and it has nutritive fruit oils in it for healthy and silky hair. it smells good too. you can get it at walmart or at bath and body in the mall. good luck!

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

Get yur hair cut more often and that will be the fastest thing that you can do.

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

Use Sunsilk Hydra TLC shampoo and conditioner. My hair is dry with spilt ends and cutting it is one option, but this shampoo really works, and it's not too expensive. If you want to try it first, go to www.get-hairapy.com. You can order free samples.

Redken Anti-Snap EVERYDAY

Stay away from any drug store product that claims to add shine, it will dry you out!

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

stop chemically processing it!

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

Oh boy...if you are using relaxers/perms, those sure dry things out and are usually the culprit for all that breakage. I suggest you tell your stylist to be very careful not to overlap when she perms it, and to apply the product ONLY to the new growth. I would change stylists if she doesnt comply. Sounds to me like that is the problem. In the meantime, I would try some leave-in conditioners to get it in the best shape possible before you return to the salon. I know that with black hair, having regrowth is not an option....so maybe try that or change to a better stylist- it sounds to me like she is making excuses for her shoddy work!

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

Hair lacks moisture. Try some moisturizing shampoo. Also, use a satin scarf or head wrap at night. Avoid the hot curling irons and blow dryers as well. The less you touch your hair....the less split ends you'll have.

Good Luck.

Faster way to reduce Split-Ends in HAIR?

Hair is made up of protein, so eat foods which contain plenty of protein like fish, eggs, liver, milk products, yeast, wheat germ, sprouts, beans, nuts and yoghurt.Hot oil massages improve the circulation.More cheap and natural remedies for hair growth at http://www.wellnesstalk.org/growhair.htm...

Will hair straightening work with my type of hair?

I am 17 years old.

My hair is very, very dry, curly, and frizzy, it makes me look very old.

When I staighten my hair with a iron it gets really frizzy, but still looks better than my original hair.

I went to a hair stylist about 6 months ago,, and I showed them pictures of what I want my hair to look like and they said they can do it.

I told my Mom and she insisted I go to another hair stylist.

This new hair stylist refused to straighten my hair, saying only black people get that done.

She said it might fry my hair.

So instead, they cut and died it, the dye came out very white and people always said I had gray highlights.

My hair is about long enough to get the style I want.

My Mom is telling me now that I can't get it done. It's immpsoible.

Something so little made me so mad, because I always hated my hair and when the lady said they can give me that style it made be so, soooo happy.

Now my Mom is telling me it's immposible and they just want to steal my money,
