    I barely leave comments - but when I tell you I just tried this and my hair looks A1 I MEAN IT! I’ve tried doing this with different tools but the knife works. I’m shaken to the core! THANK YOU!!! This is a miracle.
    I will say, I have light hair by nature so my hair takes to highlights perfectly and easily. I am just shocked.

    Nothing annoys me more than when stylists cop that superior attitude towards DIY hair applications and start judging when you're sitting in their chair. I've been getting highlights for years and although some stylists do a nice job, I've also ended up with a big mess that I hated from stylists who just aren't that talented or careful. Once you get the hang of applying your own highlights, it's not rocket science and if you're careful it takes a lot to mess it up. Lou has beautiful hair and this application is saving her hours in a salon as well as about $100 or more in cash. Nice job.... it's a quick, easy application plus the bleach you're using is probably much safer for your scalp!

    Here goes the 'hair stylists' ready to attack. I swear they go on every vlog and try to shame everyone who does their own hair. You did a great job!
    Just because they have a cosmetology license, doesn't mean they're good at what they do. I've had so many stylists damage my hair before, after paying hundreds of dollars. Many times I've done a much better job than they did. And, without the damage and the crazy prices they charge.

      HEY! Not all of us! Lol! There are those that do... I agree, some don’t know what they are doing... but there are always places where we all have strengths and weaknesses and just because you are trained for something, doesn’t mean you are skilled at it. My greatest strength with hair is actually the thing I had least training in... and that is braiding... I am good with color, quite good, but I still get stumped sometimes... we are also trained that henna is the worst, but I disagree... it is harder to control... but it gives the best red color...

      Same here, I paid $80 to get a half head of highlights. They pulled my hair so hard half of it fell out a week later and they did NO highlights around my face or ontop so it’s like I literally did not change. That wasn’t my only bad experience. So disappointing. I have lost my faith in hairdressers and will be dying my own hair from now on.

    • @Angel4UTwo

      Yep agree!! I had a person do my hair and I came home in tears that they had fucked up my hair so bad I had to redo it when i got home before my date was to pick me up for homecoming (years ago). And I spent a lot of money for nothing. Even the makeup she did had me looking like a hooker. “No offense to anyone”. If you have something that works for you then YOU DO IT! Who cares what “Licensed people” think or say!! Just be you

    I just want to say Lou,I’m a hairdresser too & I commend you for your superb idea of applying root touch up/highlights with a knife! It’s brilliant & ur great! I’ve been a hairdresser for 20yrs but unfortunately had to give up due to chronic pain. So you, my lovely Lou have helped me a great deal with ur fabulous idea of using a knife! I am stuck in the house with chronic pain anayway but now lockdown aswell. So I’m DEF going to use your brilliant idea of a knife to do my root touch up.Good on you Lou 4 helping others,I love to help others too.😀👍😘Just ignore all the ‘nasty pasties’....they’re just jealous they never thought of it!😂 Keep ‘being you’ & a huge heartfelt thanks for helping me when I’m stuck housebound & cant get to the salon. I’m soooo grateful! Luv & hugs Faye 😘👍😆Xxxxx

      Hi Faye.....I suffer chronic pain too, amongst many other things. Being in lockdown is just normal for me, as it probably is for you too. It's even more stressful though, with all the potential virus on things. It would be good to hear how your highlights went. Am thinking of doing this too. I used to highlight my hair for years, using a cap, but as my health continued to deteriorate, it just got harder and more painful, until I couldn't do it any more. I usually have a home hairdresser do highlights every 7 weeks or so, and so am now getting fed up with my roots dominating my head! Lol

    I have been highlighting my own hair for years with OTC highlighting kits. I have really short hair and still it takes a couple hours or more to use the kit per cap and recommendations. When I ran across this video, I thought there’s no way it could be that easy. AND YET!!! Here I am just with highlighted roots that look so much better than with the cap. They’re more subtle. More natural. And it was so stinking easy! I may be seven years late on this video but that’s ok because Now I’ve seen the Light!!! Thanks so much!!

    I’m a hairdresser and have worked in LA , Las Vegas and now Tampa Florida and I’ve seen a lot of different things, but you know what you gotta do what works for ya, just because we’re hairdressers doesn’t mean we’re perfect either, and every hairdresser before they did hair, used boxed color at least once in their life prior to being licensed , so even if or when I have a client that used it at home or did things at home if it didn’t turn out right I’d never criticize because I’ve been there when I was younger as well. We’re in the profession to help and make sure the client is happy and the hair is healthy and beautiful. Not to criticize.

    FYI, I’ve been doing my own highlights for decades... a box and a cap. I’ve had multiple hair dressers ask who did my highlights. When I tell them I did, they always make the super surprised face, and tell me what a good job I did. Yep... Saved thousands through the years.

    Lou, I just really want to tell you how much I love your videos and how much they have meant to me. I have suffered from debilitating depression for most of my adult life. These past 2 years I've done pretty well in the fight against my depression. I use to go to the gym 5 days a week to lift weights and I was taking very good care of myself. But on February 8th I turned 47. I have no idea why this set me back, but I have been truly suffering emotionally since. I can't work because it has me almost emotionally crippled.
    I discovered your videos and you have given me some much needed comic relief. I am in awe at not only your beauty on the outside, but also what a beautiful person you are on the inside. You make me and my husband laugh every day! Thank you! It especially touched my heart to hear that you suffer from depression yourself and that you had some sadness in your past. You know, I once heard that there is pain in laughter. That often the funniest people are the saddest. You obviously are not sad all of the time, but I do love that you are so honest and relatable. Thank you again. Your videos have brought some joy into my life.

    Love this inventive trick! I, too, have a trick born of necessity. While traveling, I ran into friends who invited me to an evening get together. I desperately needed a quick touch up, but didn't have all the tools available. Luckily, the duty free shops supply free brushes, for trying on makeup. I grabbed a few, along with box of prefab lightening mix. The wands worked really well for a quick, root touch up; allowing more precision as well as thorough saturation of entire hair strands. It worked so well I continued using the technique. Like you, this is not the only tool I use for highlighting/coloring. Today my roots are crying out for attention. And, since I never know when I might be on a trip with no duty free in sight, I'm going to give your idea a whirl!

    Thank you for this! I used your blunt knife technique today and it worked out well. My hair is naturally darker than yours (dark brown, not black), so I was nervous to use Jolen. I bought Revlon Color Effects Frost and Glow in Honey. I skipped the cap it came with, and just worked the bleach/developer mixture from that box. I used your knife technique and even just my fingers on certain strands in the back. I saw Jessie James Decker use just her fingers and gloves in a separate video. The combo of your knife technique and her finger technique were just what I needed for a little pick-me-up to get me by until I can see my hairstylist after this coronavirus quarantine. Thanks, again. Your hair looks great!

      Update: I highlighted my hair on Saturday for the first time at home with the Revlon Color Effects. I used the knife and gloved fingers technique (no cap or foils) and it worked pretty well. I noticed that I missed a few spots. So on Tuesday, I touched up those spots with Jolen. My hair is naturally dark brown. I left it on for 35 minutes. I have some nice, blonde streaks. I plan to use a Brite No Yellow Mask in a few days. Thanks for this. It is a nice way to brighten things up before I can get to a salon.

    Listen. I live in the south. I see some of the most hideous hair colors/cuts/do's you can ever imagine. And PAY someone to do it!
    My personal not so favorite is ppl trying to use green, pink, or purple streaks in the hair. Ugh so hood. 0-o
    Now, I myself color my own hair......using Dollar Tree hair color. I know, shock. But it works for me.....I use the lightest blonde color they have and I occasionally will buy the dark brown and apply streaks in my hair, sometimes just do the underneath part and it gives a little dimension. If you take your time it'll look pretty good. Lou I love your method and will try it this spring! Do what works, and for me the cheaper stuff works just fine!! ;)

      @@heylouzers The darkest parts underneath in the back are probably a six. The part I was testing is more of a 7. I do have warmth in my hair and I'm wondering if I need a stronger volume. I don't know what's in Jolen. After seeing my results, I used Matrix blue mask just in case that could fix it, but no luck. Now I'm thinking maybe an actual toner or silver demi permanent color. This is all language I didn't know 6 months ago. Just You-tubing away.........Thank you for your reply.

    Just applied the mixture to the natural parting on the back of my head using second mirror. It was easy. But I'm really good at dyeing my hair using 2 mirrors (one mirror on the wall, the other one in one of my hands). So no probs here.

    Great for emergencies & creating a few highlights..but don't you think the colour is far too orange/ golden..would it not look a bit more natural if you used a purple shampoo to make it less warm ??.I' m an artist & use a palette knife a lot with paint...works with acrylic & oil paint which has the same density as that bleach so yeah it definitely works !

    Hello everyone, I would like to ask how are you washing jolen out of your hair? On the box says cold plain water and no heat so would that be a madness to wash it with shampoo, warm water and use the hair straightener? 😅

    • @elaine-ellen-marie2615

      I am wondering about the same thing! I have used this method before, after watching the first amazing video. My highlights turned out very well, despite using two applications on my brunette hair. Jolene bleach is gentle as it can be used on facial hair if needed. The first time I did rinse out with cold water as it was in the summer but it's winter now and so cold!

    • @justintime42000
      @justintime42000 3 года назад

      I haven’t done highlighting with this product but you could try mixing up just a tiny bit and try testing it on a very small amount of hair toward the back behind your ear or anywhere underneath that you can’t see unless your hair is pulled back or up to expose the test area. In the salon my stylist checks my foils after 10-15 minutes and then after another 5 minutes until the yellow is out. That’s using hair bleach, which is much stronger, of course. Lou said she went up to 45 minutes. I’m not a hairdresser, but like everyone here, I’m trying to figure out how to do my own while the pandemic rages on. I would try this test method with any new hair color or hair lightening product before going with a full application. Better to be cautious than have to find a fix later.
      I know the Schwartzkopf BlondMe is a great and gentle bleach that will get past any yellow or orange stage in the lightening process without damaging the hair. It has the bonder built into it and only needs a 20 developer for dark hair to go all the way to platinum, but everything I’ve read about it says to only use the same exact brand of BlondMe developer to get the desired results (if you want to try a professional product). It’s not cheap. This is what my stylist uses and I have never had any breakage.
      I also am afraid Jolen will not lighten my hair enough to get past the yellow or orange tones. Lou’s highlights look great on her, but they’re probably a little too dark/gold for my hair. I am going to try her knife highlight application technique though, only with a plastic knife instead of a metal knife.

    * Lou, do you still use the Jolen, & if so do you still use exact same method here, and/or have any updates or add'l tips? I have your same dark blonde natural hair, though w/ natural strawberry blonde highlights- quite "multi-tonal" or so I've been told. Last time I tried to blend in some blonder highlights- using hand paint method & a regular box dye, I did end up w/splotchy orange blobs. It was horrid, & cost me $200@salon to fix.
    Colorist put in dark & light highlights of course to blend my mess, but now I have to either keep it up myself or attempt to dye my whole head back to as close to natural color as possible...which isn't, because it's so "multi-tonal". Besides, at 57yrs old, I do have some gray strands coming in so highlighting seems best solution to keep some blending going on.
    Sorry for the essay-length comment, hope it makes sense. I'm also not a salon gal, & the little bits I've done over the years have usually turned out lovely. *Meaning, I know the risks & don't care😁💓Thanks, in advance~ Sam
