#PARTIAL HIGHLIGHTS ON BLONDE HAIR PROFESSIONAL#

Most in-person consults are going to be free of charge anyway, so asking over e-mail or online is no different so long as they have a good photo of your current color, preferably in natural lighting. Even if you don't have a trusted go-to colorist, if there's someone you love following on Instagram, or a color brand you're leaning towards using, send them a DM asking for advice.

Some brands, like L'Oreal's Color & Co, will offer a free consultation with a professional colorist to help you take your best step forward with at-home hair color.

'My advice would be to communicate with your colorist and get their recommendation. 'I stay in touch with my clients and will troubleshoot their individual situations,' she says.

Consulting your colorist will not only help you to gain some sort of understanding of what you're about to do, but it's an opportunity to collaboratively come up with a strategic approach.Ĭraig cautions that when highlighting your hair at home, you could end up with a completely different color (because the box photos are never the same), odd placement, a blonde that is way too warm and doesn't match the rest of your hair, or color that is way too dark.

You can't wait for a professional to do the job for you, you need to at least talk with one first.
