Does the higher end a salon is equal better hair coloring?

Q. I want an Ombre style hair coloring,which I'd imagine takes some skill and is a little challenging to do and I was wondering if I go to a more high end salon, will they generally be better at dying my hair then one that's no so high end?

A. Most likely, but it's usually the people that have been hair stylists longer that are better skilled, rather than the higher end salon.

What would an average jane have to do to dramatically improve her appearance?

Q. For example: Hair dying, teeth whitening, etc etc etc.

What things produce the most dramatic effect? List everything you can think of! :)

A. In order to improve your look, evaluate yourself. Start at your feet. Think to yourself, hmm, what do I want to change about my feet? XD You could get a pedicure, moisturize, paint your nails, etc. Do that with your hair, makeup, and everything.

The things that will most dramatically improve a look is:
1. Cute clothes/shoes
2. Nice haircut/style
3. Natural makeup
4. Skin/body that is taken care of (exercise, eat healthy, moisturize, etc.)
5. Basic hygiene- brush teeth, comb hair, blah blah blah! XD
I hope I helped! <3

Help me?

EDIT: Remember- fake is always bad!! Stay as natural as you can to bring out your true beauty! NOBODY needs nasty fake tans, bleached hair, globs of makeup, and all of that. It looks cheap. Just sayin' lol.

What should I get my mother for Christmas?

Q. My mom is 52 and I am 18 (a college student).
She mentioned something about wanting to do something with her hair, but that she doesn't have the kind of money to continue dying her hair. She also mentioned that she's too much of a snob to get the "do it yourself" kind of hair dying products. Any ideas for a related idea for a Christmas gift?
I will also accept non related gift ideas since I don't know what to get her.

A. A gift certificate to a salon so that she can get her hair styled and dyed professionally.

You could buy her a gift basket of soaps, scented lotions, bath salts and bubbles, perfumes, etc. I often buy my mother (who's about the age of yours) a new purse or wallet. She loves purses and often doesn't spend the money on herself to buy new ones. My mother also likes earrings. Amazon sells some very affordable Swarovski crystal earrings.

How can I change grey hair without using hair die?

Q. I have grey hair and i dont want them, how can I change them to my normal hair without using the hair die and if possible how can it be permanently normal again? Please help.

A. Greying is normal. Coloring is an option: semi-permanent or permanent. Suggest that you have it done professionally. If not done professionally, I STRONGLY suggest semi-permanent color that is as close to your natural color as possible.

IF YOU HAVE JUST A FEW GREYS, pluck them out.

#6 on the "Top 10 Hair Myths"

"Pluck one gray hair and two grow back.
Folks, if this were true I would be pulling my hair out by the fist full. I need more hair and can always color the gray hair."
http://www.hair-styles.org/top-10-hair-myths.html

*** I agree. It's a myth. ***
_____

I've never plucked one but they keep right on coming. My daughter is a beautician and has been plucking greys since she was in her late teens--she's 38 and if the myth were true she'd be totally grey now. She's not...

How Can I Brighten My Red Hair Without Using Dye?

Q. So I went through a weird stage of hair-dying and have settled now with a lovely chestnut colour. Things is, I really like it when it's bright, almost flamy ginger, in the sun.
Is there a shampoo or hair product that can make it like that all the time?

A. Try using a set of products specifically for red hair. I think John Frida might have sets of products for different hair colors. Then, I would definitely use the shampoo and conditioner, and if you are a person who used products every day, I'd invest in any other sprays, creams, etc. they have in the collection. Also, use a nice shine serum (i love CHI and Paul Mitchell's) and when you style your hair, it was keep the color bright and shiney. Just be careful not to use too much so it doesn't appear greasy! You can also buy shampoos and conditioners made for color treated hair that will keep the unnatural color in your hair and bright for as long as possible. I also have my hair dyed to a reddish aburn and I use Sauve's shampoo and conditioner for colored hair. It's cheaply priced and very easy to find (walmart, etc.). Also, it works just as well as salon products for a fraction of the price! Good luck!
