Highlights For the New You
Some consider it vanity to spend time & money on their hair, but little do they know that just a small investment in their hair can pay large dividends to their self esteem.
You don't have to go to the extreme of cutting, extending, or dying.
All it takes is a little accent of color.
Not sure what to do? How about trying highlights? One definition of highlight is to center attention on.
Think of your ideal first impression.
What do you want people to take away from meeting you? What do you want to grab their attention? Who doesn't want their face, because of it's beauty to command attention? It's no wonder then that the best highlights for the hair are those that frame your face.
Have you ever seen a beautiful work of art in an ugly frame? How disappointing that would be.
Choose the right highlights so you won't be that work of art that isn't living up to its potential.
The best looking highlights are those that are lighter than the base of the hair.
This can give a sun kissed look to your skin and really make your face shine.
Choose your hair color carefully, keeping your skin tone in mind.
You don't want to go to dark if you have fair skin or to light if you have darker skin.
You can use your highlights as a chance to stay in line with your true personality, or as an opportunity to try something new, daring even.
If you're known as an understated, shy person, why not go for a more bold color? How your hair looks on the outside can and will affect how you feel on the inside.
Your new found confidence may cause people not to see you as the shy, wall flower.
Don't forget that while choosing the right highlight color is important, so is making sure you take care of it.
There's nothing as exciting as something new, be it hair color, a new job, or a car.
How long you keep that "new" feeling rests largely on your shoulders.
To continue to feel good about your choice make sure to shampoo and condition your hair regularly, and try to avoid putting a lot of heat in your hair.
Also, maintenance is key in keeping your hair looking good.
While coloring your hair requires a touch up every 6 to 8 weeks you only have to highlight your hair every two or three months.
With the money you save you can invest in more things that make you feel great about yourself.
So while it's just hair never underestimate the value of taking care of it, and changing it up.
Think of how good you'll feel.
It may be just what you needed to give you a new lease on life.
