Well,
A few weeks ago I took it upon myself
and got highlights!
Ive always wanted them BADLY!
But I committed to waiting until I knew my hair was healthy enough.

I work in a professional enviroment, So obviously I didnt want them to be loud
Well.
They are loud.
They first night I got them I could barely sleep.
I hate them. Ive work a ponytail EVERYDAY
since then.
(and if you know me you KNOW I DONT DO PONY TAILS! )

HOW DO I FIX THIS?
Do I leave it alone and let it grow on me? (which it kind of has.. until I take it out of the pony tail)

Or do I get a rinse? It`s almost time for me to get a perm?
(I got one once every 10-12 weeks)
and my hair is beyond nappy

and to top it all off I have a GOLD PONY TAIL!!!

Wait a few weeks and have someone tone them down for you. Or put a darker rinse over your hair???

ETA: I think your hair is cute!

^^ What BB said. You could put a dark rinse over them now, but then wait a few weeks and have them professionally toned and corrected.

I would ask for partial, not full head, highlights, Focus on face framing, and limited crown placement.

ETA: I don't think it looks bad at all, but it's definitely not highlights, which you clearly state you wanted. Too much was dyed.

i'm not familiar with how coloring hair works.. like the don'ts and such, but...

i wanted to let you know that i think your hair looks good even though you don't like it. i'm sorry you're unhappy with your hair... i'm sure there is a way to reverse it. just remember to take extra-extra care of it when you do!

Wait a couple of weeks and see how u like it then. To get highlights, and then perm and then fix ur highlights will definately be too much for your hair in a space of a couple of weeks.

Btw, i think they are really pretty!

Exactly what I was going to say

It is alot thicker than highlights, but it looks GOOD to me.....

Girl....... I know exactly how you feel. My highlites were WAAAYYYY too golden for me... so I put this in.

Light Ash Brown - Level 4. It toned it down and it's still a golden brown (look at siggy). Best part is that there is no ammonia, and if you don't like it, it will rinse out within 28 washes

If you are really self conscious or don't like it.... don't wait. Fix it now. I highly recommend this rinse and now I love my highlights and they look so much more natural.
