Hair For You

The idea is that our hair gets darker as we age. Also, as we age, our skin naturally loses pigment, which can make darker hair colors look unflattering and severe. Seems like our bodies are just working against ourselves, doesn’t it? Solution? Highlights, of course! Adding warmer highlights to your hair can take years off your face. You can even go so far as to say that your hair when you were young, say 4 or 5 years old, would be your most natural, flattering sun-kissed hair color. Highlighting, rather than just changing your base color, would be the best way to achieve the look you are going for: as young as possible, without looking like you are trying too hard. Also, highlighting is much easier to maintain and you won’t need to rush to the salon every 4 weeks or less for a root touch-up. Some people may even be able to go as far as 4 months with highlights, depending on how light their highlights are compared to their natural color.
