Can you do your own highlights at home? If so, what product do you use? Ever try the tinting shampoo?

I'm sick of paying $125.00 at the salon. Anyone do their own highlights at home? Or, does anyone use that tinting shampoo? I'd like to do my own hair and just pay for hair cuts.





Any advice would be great. Thanks!Can you do your own highlights at home? If so, what product do you use? Ever try the tinting shampoo?
I am a brunette and I too got sick of paying my local salon 4 highlights i use Shikai highlighting shampoo works great and they have it for blondes too! You can buy at bizrate.com its cheaper ther I have tried other shampoos and it was a waste of money.Can you do your own highlights at home? If so, what product do you use?

Materials:


A cap


A hair color remover kit


Hair dye of your choice


A knitting needle or back of a comb.





So you need a cap (they sell them at beauty supply stores) and pull strands of hair out with a knitting needle(it has a curved end so it is easier to pull the hair out, you can also use a comb).





Then you need a hair color remover kit follow the instructions to the mixture and then spread it on to all the hair that was pulled out through the holes of the cap and then follow the instructions on the box.





Rinse your hair out and dry it. Without takins the cap off!





Then choose your choice of hair color and follow the steps on the box. After you rinse your hair of the dye you can take the cap off and you will have highlights!
i use professional bleach at home. my mom was a hair dresser back in the day and still has her liscence so she can by the professional stuff. i think you can buy bleach at places like sally's beauty supply or any other beauty supply, but i don't know who well that stuff works.





just make sure you have someone help you with using foil. if you are putting it on dark hair, it's not very forgiving.
just use any hair color and a cap for coloring.. you pull your hair through the holes on the cap and use a brush to put the color on.. my sister uses this to do my hair all the time
they sell stuff to do your own highlight.. it comes in a lil box just like hair dye but it has a lil comb that you use to apply the dye in spots where you want the highlights (:
