I have been doing my own highlights for probably 10 years now. I have also used the Loreal highlighting kits, Frost and Glow, and Frost and Design. I am partial to the Frost and Glow one, but the fact that they have the cap is the reason I started doing my own hair. Most salons use foil and I really dislike foil. On top of that I save a TON of money doing my own hair instead of paying a salon for cut and highlights with long hair. Not sure if you read these comments Angie, but I recommend you try the cap at least once. Even when I get my hair cut at a salon I ALWAYS get compliments about my highlights. The hairstylists generally don't like that I used a box highlighting kit, but they can't deny how pretty it looks. I had to have my daughters help me with the back many years ago, but now I have gotten good with doing it myself. Love, love, love these videos! Thanks for keeping us all looking beautiful over 50!
Hey Angie! you did a great job of doing your own hair. I did hear your cry for help with the toner! So as a licensed stylist watching you I would recommend that you squeeze the toner contents into the color bowl and apply with the brush too and have a wide tooth comb to pull it through that will be easier love! and toner is still color so I would wear gloves. And reading through the comments and my thoughts while watching you were, if I may suggest for the highlight application to do 2 mixtures and start at the bottom / underneath and do the top last and then it can all be off your face. so whether you use 1 packet or 2 mix up a batch and do half the head of what you plan to touch up and start at the neck and then mix a fresh batch when doing the top. this way you can apply in a way that will stay off your face and have less chance of what we call bleeding through or transfer on to other hair. Just wanted to support you in your at home efforts 🙏 keep up the great videos! 💖 Sonia
leila Well as a stylist that has been doing my own hair for practically all my career (20 years) it just takes practise and it is definitely something to get used to looking in the mirror backwards! I was inspired to look at their website and the instruction videos and support system to help you at home with a personal colorist is impressive. As a colorist looking to support my own clients and anyone else wanting to do their hair at home and I am in Canada so we have less options this company is filling a need and doing it well with regular color. Meaning it still is ammonia and ppd so not for those of us that have gone holistic of have allergies its not an option. But they seem to have a fabulous customer experience from what I can tell. Of course go with your gut instinct on what to do but I thought I’d share what I discovered when researching them just now. I am going to be offering 1-1 Zoom appointments for walking through cutting bangs and the sides of the hair or other drive you nuts bits because I just think its the right thing to do for supporting my clients or anyone who wants to cut their own hair while in quarantine and still feel good about themselves.
@@intuitivewellnessrituals Great tips, thanks
The Zen Room & Studio If you know of any colors that doesn’t have any PPD, resorcinol or ammonia please please let me know. I have terrible allergies and so I have been using henna and indigo. Which makes my hair fabulous but it’s a messy pain. I tried Maddison Reed. I don’t really like it. I wish companies would get on board and understand these chemicals are terrible for you. I see some Asian brands are free from these chemicals. Maybe I’ll give them a go. Thank you
Vicki Zeimen my pleasure! anytime love :-) happy to help ❤️
Tracy Yes I do know of professional brands that are free from them and thats what I use on my clients but right now none of those companies have anything for retailing for home use for clients to do safely at home. I am not sure where you are located and if grey coverage is what you need? I can help you navigate to perhaps finding a stylist that uses the same products near you. Some are making kits for pick up and drop off but it all just depends on laws of where you are in the world. Happy to keep replying here in the event our conversation is helpful to others also or you can dm on Instagram if you prefer to be more private since youtube took away messaging 🤦♀️😃
Another good tip to fading or getting a blurred highlight into the root area is a take a toothbrush (or comb but I like a toothbrush) and gently tease at the top of where you're going to be placing the highlight and also I sometimes will put a little bit of conditioner there to get a more gradient highlight. Hope this helps someone!
😊
Thank you so much for the tips ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great vid. My favorite thing about it, however, is the community effort behind it!. This is the kinda thing that reminds me why I love being a woman. Reading all these comments and everybody pitching in and Sonia giving Pro tips has left me feeling less lonely for my girlfriends. Thanks for bringing us all together Angie. It's so helpful in more ways than you probably realize.
I like to section out all of the tiny pieces first then highlight them all at once. Saves a lot of time as you're not fiddling around with your gloves on.
Thanks for sharing! your videos are always so informative and interesting
Hello, how would this work? I can't picture how you would be able to get the highlight product all the way to the root on little sections all over the head all at once. Doesn't the rest of the hair cover up all the sections?
I'm going to try this thank you so much 😊
Hey...I wanna say that I just used the ESalon hair dye kit. I have had it for several weeks, since this all started. However, I have been scared to use it. Thank you, Angie! Now today, with your instruction, I felt confident in doing this myself. I just colored my roots and it turned out AMAZING! I feel SO much better about my hair...no, about everything! The color was a perfecty match too. Good job, ESalon!!
After coloring my own naturally light hair successfully for 15 or 20 years, I have decided to free myself from hair color and let my beautiful gray come in! I am very excited about it and there are so many you tube videos to support the process. Gray is beautiful.
I seen a lady yesterday with mostly grey hair, there were some dark hairs, but what captivated me the most was her hair was thick and healthy, shiny. It was gorgeous. I told her so. I thought if you leave your hair alone and focus on the health of it, it looks better than coloring it because coloring it damages it so much, and coloring too much can make your hair fall out. Not to mention that your pretty much in style whit the youth of today. They seem to love to color their hair grey. LOL
@@aleafox1675 Exactly!
Omg!! I can’t thank you enough!! I bought both hair products and after 2 weeks of stressing and afraid I would mess my hair up , I finally gave in and did my roots tonight!! They look amazing and my hair looks so healthy! Tomorrow night I will add some highlights to my already bylayage!! Living in New Jersey, who knows when salons will reopen and my grays where not waiting!😄
I'm just starting to go gray and your videos make me feel fearless about aging. Seeing how happy you are when your hair and makeup is fresh makes me feel more confident that I will be able to express myself and look nice as my skin and hair change
You do a great job, Angie! My mom is 74 and she's been home dyeing her hair since her 40s. She cuts it as well (between shoulder & arm pit). Before that I was younger and she had to take me to the salon anyway. When I became a teen I sort of experimented myself, and cut my hair myself, and so she didn't want to go for just herself. She's become a real expert over the years. She is fully gray/white now and keeps it a light to mid-tone blonde every 3/4 months; it lifts after about the 2 month cycle and her roots growing in isn't even that obvious (not at all). I no longer dye my hair. I have wavy/curly over the butt length hair (classic length) and I only have a sprinkling of white throughout; it totally suits me and I don't think I'll be dyeing my hair anytime soon (it's nice 'n easy). LOL!
I first part is easy. When I was younger and had no money used to do my own hair for years. The highlight??? No Way, you have the patience of a saint. Good for you.
I’ve dyed my roots for a few years. It’s so easy. After seeing your original video on highlighting. I tried it myself. I was super cautious the first time and have gotten bolder the last couple of times. I like being in control of where my highlights go and love the results. Thank you for your informative videos and encouragement. I’m not sure I would have tried had I not seen you do it and. your results. Appreciate you, Angie!
Awesome! So happy you've had success at home!
I love to color my hair. I save lots of money. I do more chunky highlights. I love it. Not as many maybe 5 to 7 of them. As i have gotten older i do need to do my roots every 4 Weeks cause of the greys. Greys are not in. Never ever* ill see real pretty woman with great skin 50 going full on grey. They say it takes off 10 or more years u look younger. One day when ur 80 ok go grey but try and look ur best because ur feel sexier. Ur feel younger and who doesnt want that? I no people will say that many look good with salt pepper hair? No no no why look so oldier when u dont have to? Coloring ur own hair makes u feel in control and brings the confidence back that we get when we feel better about ourselves.
I'd love to pluck up the courage to do it myself but how on earth do you see the back of your head to pull thin strands through?! And my hair isn't long. Shoulder length, so I can't "pull it forward."
Penelope Collett Get a good side mirror that you can attach to your wall, so you can turn around in your main mirror and see the back of your head. Help from husband, friends or kids is always a plus, too!
lesley henry thank you! I had a feeling I may need help with this one🥴
Oh my goodness, I guarantee I would lose patience halfway through and just dump it on the back of my head. LOL! I love how thorough and informative all your videos are, thank you so much for all the effort you put in for us.
I used to highlight your sister's hair for her; Ellen called us The Clariol gang. I was the hairdresser and they watched and drank wine. I miss her!
My thoughts exactly! Lol.
Michele McBee p
You made me laugh so hard!!! I could TOTALLY invasion myself doing the same thing!!!
For anyone wanting to try this at home, just know that if you like Angie's colour, ordering her shade won't necessarily give you the same colour result, as it all depends on YOUR own hair - the base tone, underlying tones, amount of greys, even the texture; will all impact the individual colour result.
Well I’m one of the hundreds of people who watched you’re at home hair coloring . when I went to get the L’Oreal it was sold out. I am so happy to see that i ended up ordering the same exact one that You are recommending in this video!. I have never had success coloring my own hair let alone doing highlights. My shipments should come in this week. I’m gonna try the color and highlights this weekend. If this actually works out, i will save hundreds of dollars. So thanks Angie for the recommendations. 👍🏻🤗🤞
Good luck! Hope it works out for you!! Just make those highlights super small/skinny!!
So how did your hair turn out?? I am curious and I want to try it!!!
Wow, you have a enormous amount of patience, I could never do this, but am amazed that you and many others can. Great video!
you only do few strands at a time. Next time few more and so on. Eventually it would be a breeze. prepare very little solution for just few strands. I use Revlon Frost & Glow, different shades wich I alternate.
@@annasmith5676 What do you do when it starts to grow out? How do you touch it up?
@@roger12393ok, it works like this: each time you to wash your hair, you prepare a mix, not more than 1 tsp, then select few, most dark strands (in the beginning, all your hair will be dark at roots), you apply the mix to each strand starting from the root, and if the end of the strand is already colored you can cover the dark portion only. start with very "fine" strands, meaning very few hairs in a strand, but not uniform strands. So one strand will be a bit thicker than another. in 2-3 days you repeat the process selecting different strands and so on until your entire head will look like sun kissed. Vary holding time as well. One "session" you hold it 45 min, another 30 or 1 hour-this will give you different shades. Since strands are randomly selected, have various shades and thickness, you won't have demarkation lines anymore. Therefore you continue this process indefinitely: color few strands each time you wash your hair. Eventually you will see which side of your head needs touch up and work on that side. Your hair would remain nicely blended with colored and dark strands. It took me awhile to figure out how to color hair on the back of my head. I now collect front and side hair in mini pony tails and randomly, blindly select hair on the my back and apply the mix. if you hair is long, just lift the strand up and you will see if it needs coloring. Eventually hair on your back would be nicely highlighted. Just start with very few hair strand, it will look natural and nicely blended. The key here is patience. I personally don't like dark "underneath" hair, so I work all hair, but started with hair on top. You can also buy 2 different shades of the product and alternate it.
@@annasmith5676 Briilliant advice. I think I will have the confidence to try it now having read what you have written Anna thank you. 🧞♂️🙄
Oops. That should be 😁
Wow so glad esalon worked for you! I specifically told them I needed to cover the grey on my part and around my ears and guess what...it didn’t...not even a little. I went back to L’Oréal for a fraction of the price. Thanks for showing us your technique, your hair came out gorgeous!
You did a great job and a great service to people in need of hair coloring. Seeing the frosting kit brought back memories and one in particular. Way back in the '70's I used to frost my own hair at home. On one occasion I used the set up time to do some housework so after slapping the bleach all over my hair I wrapped hair and cap in plastic wrap and put a shower cap over all that to prevent dripping. In this ridiculous get up I did housework for the required 30 minutes not realizing that I had trapped in my body heat which sped up the bleaching process. When I took all the plastic off I was left with white straw sticking out of the cap!! 😵 Needless to say it took a lot of TLC to repair that damage. 😄 As always you gave us a great video! Stay safe and well. XXOO❤
This comment made me laugh😅 the things we do when we are young lol
I love how detailed & how well you have explained each step however; since I am mostly gray & just have my hair highlighted and so much of the gray has now grown out I have decided it’s all going to grow out. I will save time & money! Your videos are always very detailed and informative & I thank you for all of your time doing them. Thanks 😊
Thank you Angie 😁 you're the best. Let my hair go ( both cut and color) so that I could get it done for my birthday by a very good stylist. Then, I got sick. This was in early February. Will never know what I hsd, but I have never been that sick. Anyway, by the time I was well enough to go get my hair done, we were already in "lock diwn" here in CA. With the help of you fantastic You Tubers, I have been able to do things that are making feel very good. Angie, this is your best video yet. Thank you,Thank you , thank you😁 Stay safe and be well,please
Hi Angie, greetings from New Zealand. I've been doing my colour at home for a few years now. As you do, I do the roots one day and the highlights the next. I use a L"Oreal kit too but last time I used the cap and pulled strands of hair through. Well I must say I was thrilled with the results and when my hubby came home he thought I'd been to the salon. Last time I had my hair cut my stylist couldn't believe how nice my colour and streaks were, she was quite amazed. I think home colours have gotten a lot more advanced over time. As you may have heard NZ is in a strict lockdown and we can't order non essential items through the post or couriers, so things like hair dye are only available from local supermarkets (and ours is pretty limited). Cheers and stay safe and thanks for your continuing entertaining content!
You can always use a small pump of your Revlon Root Erase to break-up/correct your one chunky highlight.
I just highlight/lowlight'd my hair last night. I actually use foils, learned how years ago, and it's really easy now...but not at first, lol. I am for sure going to look into your highlight package and lowlight product. I too do my hair in between salon visits, it saves us a lot of money, and to me it looks great...kinda fun too! Thank you for sharing Angie...looks beautiful!
“Get it... golden?” made my day! 😂 Thank you for your knowledge AND sense of humor. You’re fabulous! ☺️
Hehehe!
Whats funny about that though?
I started using e-salon this year. Agree, love the product and service. Received my April kit on the 17th and coloured my hair yesterday.
Thanks, Angie for making this great video. I'm about to start highlighting my quarantine hair after coloring my roots yesterday. Thanks to all of you professional stylists for your extra tips. Can't wait to see my hairstylist in a few months!
I am so glad I found your channel! You are so knowledgeble about skincare, beauty, and hair tips and I love your style. My last salon trip was $175! After watching this video, I decided to give eSalon a try. I placed my first order last night and can't wait to try it. Thanks for all you do!!!
Lovely job! Thanks for letting us know about wetting the hair edge so there isn't a hard line in the front. Knew I saved my spray bottle for something.
10mins before timer is up wet hair line so edge isn’t so harsh. Time stamp @15:40
I have used that kit but always used the cap and rips my hair. Now if I can have your patience, I will try this way. This must save over 100 dollars from the beauty shop. Looked great
Great video. I’ve been doing the same method! Haven’t been to a salon in 2 years. Learned how to cut my own hair on youtube also. It’s so liberating. Just ordered everything to do dip nails. Something so satisfying about doing it yourself!
I started doing my own gel nails a while ago, but I switched to regular polish. It was starting to damage my nails. I was using the soak method of removing them, but I still got damage from chemicals.
Lydia's Corner mine too!
Lydia's Corner the most damage is from filing, if you don’t have the technique you can do a lot of damage.
@@queenofstitcheswarrior2668 No filing here. I've had salons do that. It was horrible after a while.
I cut my own hair, because I had a horrible cut at the salon about 1 1/2 months before everything shut down. My hair is natural wavy, so I watched a lot of videos on the unicorn cut. Biggest mistake ever 🤦♀️ I should have left it alone....course I did a color remover which left me a light orange, with damaged ends...yeah...
You do such an amazing job on your hair! Watching you though I realize that my problem is my lack of patience. You are an inspiration that it can be done.
Thank you! I did this as a teen but I think I'm going to have to start again. It helps so much to watch someone do it. ❤
You can learn to do and be anyone on RUclips - I have become a nail expert, hair expert, painter and an electrician lol
I found out about the EverPro hair crayon thingee to cover my grays from one of your recent videos and it's the BEST ONE I've ever used. And I've tried them ALL. Got it on Ebay. And shhhhh, the light brown color even works as a contour, too. Wow! Thank you!!!
Thanks so much! You r helping me a lot through your video. I don’t hv much knowledge about makeup & hair. I learn a lot from your videos. I hv limited resources, stay at home mom, taking care of the family & elderly parents in law, not much time & money for myself yet I sometimes want to look & feel good. You help me without breaking my bank 😉
I have not been to a salon in years. I decided to own my grey hair, but highlights makes them look a bit more sophisticated!
mamaboo cee what color highlights do you put in?... I am just starting the grey journey because of the stay at home orders... kind of nervous, but, going to do it!... thank you in advance!
Great video! I make the test amount and use a comb and comb it through my hair. I buy the Revlon frost kit in honey and I leave it on 15 minutes. I do it in between Salon visits. I buy touch up root color in dark brown as well. I cut my hair as well .
Hey Angie, You have the patience of saint! One suggestion for your followers. If you plan to jump in shower to rinse out your hair anyway, or if you're protecting clothes. Use a jumbo plastic trash bag and cut a hole for your head and also for your arms and just wear it during the color and processing and also like Angie mentioned remove bathroom rugs or they'll get ruined. I use the shower after coloring so last time I just hung out in the buff covered by the bag! LOL! I absolutely dislike doing my own color but lately it's been necessary. The poor hairdressers and salon owners have had to sacrifice all they'd worked for.
Hi Angie! I have used Loreal box color for years. I used to use preference but switched to the cream on for more gray coverage. I find that the Loreal color gives me highlights. It's not just a flat color. I've never gone to a salon for coloring. I'm 56.
Wow, Angie! You are talented, and so patient. I thank my lucky stars I have a friend who is a hairdresser and came over to my house to do my roots and highlights. I thought about just going gray for a hot second, but just can't do it!
Angie I noticed the highlights were cooler and I like them much better!,
Great choice!
I have been using eSalon for about 9 months. I can vouch that it's the only hair color that's covers my grey 💯 % no fading. Thanks for sharing the tip about dividing the base color for two uses. I've been needing to color more often than I used to. I've been using the eSalon highlight kit, but I have never tried box highlight. Have you used their highlight kit?
Thanks for sharing your experience with eSalon! It really is the best!! I'm getting the eSalon hilight kit to try soon. xo ~angie
Good Morning Beautiful ☀️☕️ I absolutely loved this video, Angie. I started out using Quiet Touch hair painting kit...High School! I might try the eSalon, but I have only had all my hair colored once-and I hated it! I am very confident that my hubby (best friend) can do it! I am sooo excited now!! Hope I can find the highlighting kits! I usually need 2-my hair is thick, long and naturally curly!! Your hair looks sooo pretty!! Thanks sooo much for the timing of this!! You’re an excellent teacher 👩🏫. Love ❤️ you xoxo 😘 Kimberly
Amazing job! I've been wanting to do my own hair for ages now as it's very costly to get it covered every 5 weeks. And now with the pandemic I am really wishing I had learned sooner
It's a little tedious and difficult if you're putting on highlights fpr the first time but retouch would be very easy. I retouch every 3 months or so and vary the highlights depending on the season. It's rootier and darker towards Autumn, more saturated on Winter and brighter + streakier during Summer.
Gosh the things we women have to do. I just spent 2 hours struggling to colour my greys. I will then spend another 2 hours hi lighting my hair tomorrow. Then there is the shaving the exfoliating the moisterizing the fake tanning the face care the make up....on and on. My husband cut his own hair yesterday and shaved. Took all of 5 mins. 😞😞🤔🤔
minzy green my thoughts as well! 😁
SO TRUE!! I have a meme saved to me phone....something like:
What do you do to stay young looking?
Me: 25 different products
Husband: shampoo
I know right!?! Then add on the child bearing and ‘woman’s issues’ that kindly visit monthly we defo get a raw deal. Lol
Life is easier if you cut out as much beauty duty as possible. I henna my roots every 8 weeks to give it body and condition and trim my ends myself the same day, no exfoliating or shaving, no fake tan, minimal face care routine, makeup only for special occasions. And guess what? my partner still loves me and I still love myself. Time is better spent on more important things IMO
Grey hair is lovely anyway :)
@So Who's the Dummy Now? I have a video on this very thing!! I LOVE my white skin and grey hair.
I couldn't take the root situation any longer, so I did what I had to do... DIY style. Thank you for your tutorial - it spurred me to action. The comments helped as well! My highlights turned out great! ❤
Oh yeah, I completely get you when you say that the first two weeks after dying your hair, are the happiest. Total bliss. Lol : )
Oh yeah
I color my grey roots at home in between my salon appointment but have never attempted my own highlights. I'm afraid I'd mess it up but yours look very nice!
Hi Angie! I love your videos!! One of the things I love most is that a lot of the products that you use/review are affordable things that the average woman can actually get... not $300 face creams. Thanks so much for that!
I have a couple of questions though...
1. Have you ever tried the L’Oreal Expert Express? It’s the kit that comes with the colour and a highlighter. If you have, what did you think?
2. I am naturally a dark brunette with lots of salt in my pepper. So after doing my roots, I would like to do a highlight colour but I don’t want to go to blonde… I’m looking for more of a copper/bronze highlight. How would I achieve this? Would I not leave it on quite as long?
Thanks so much, and again… I just love your videos. Of all of the beauty bloggers I follow, you are my favourite. ❤️
gosh gurl, you look phenomenal! You are so inspiring.
Wow....great suggestion to split the eSalon into two applications. I didn't know you could save half of it. Always threw it out! You just cut my color cost in half, thank you Angie!! Is there a time limit on how long you can keep the other half? I typically do my roots every 6ish weeks.
Great result. Looks gorgeous! My hair stylist is leaving my mixed color for me on her porch, which I have to apply quickly at home myself.🙏. Your video is very well done and will help me apply color to roots. Thank you 😊
I just used that same highlighting kit last night and I am generally happy with the results, I mostly got very pretty subtle results, I like them to just look natural, like the sun did it, so I do very small little pieces, and don't want them to be too light. I mostly did get the look I wanted, a couple places didn't lift enough, and I will have to go back in to fix, I am not sure if I didn't let those pieces process long enough, or if they dried too quickly. When I do the freehand highlights, I do struggle with them drying out...but honestly it was probably user error. I had a terrible experience at the salon one time and was over processed to platinum, and so much breakage, that I tend to get panicky....but my hair felt great after using this kit, no breakage, still looks healthy. I like that it includes a toner, but suggest it be applied in shower and hair wrapped before getting out, it was so watery and ended up dripping and it does stain surfaces....I will be trying to remove those stains today with some bleach. I also tried esalon for the first time for my base color, and the color was beautiful..good communication and I felt that they were very attentive to my concerns and really wanted me to get the color that I wanted. I only received one bottle of color though, my colorist said that I didn't need to pull the color through my ends and sent instructions for freshening them up and blending the color, it worked perfectly, the only issue I had was that I didn't have quite enough to super saturate my roots, so I didn't get complete grey coverage. I always use 2 boxes of drugstore color no matter what I am doing, and think I do need to adjust my order for the future, but I am generally super happy with the product and detailed directions. Thank you for sharing all your tips with us!
Kudos to you for having patience. Looks great !
Phew what a mission! I admire your fortitude Angie. Quite an eye-opener for me - I've been highlighting my hair for 40 years but it's become ridiculously expensive🤑
getting sections of hair to highlight at the back of the head is difficult at home - u managed so well !!
Angie you can do everything ! Your hair color turned out perfectly. Doing your own color is tough!! 💕
I love these tutorials Angie,mainly because I only have the hairdresser cut my hair. I do the colouring & highlights myself,just because that money goes towards my dogs vet bills lol.Hope you’re keeping well 🤗👍🏻xxx
Great video Angie. I have my first e-salon kit coming any day now and cannot wait. Big long grey streak at the front of my hair and it's not pretty! Looking forward to stopping it mocking me for a while.
Your makeup is so so pretty today! Wow!! Would love to see how you did this!!!
You made this look so easy. About 4 weeks ago I ordered blonde brilliance from Sally’s... I have to say highlighting your own hair isn’t for the faint of heart. Unfortunately mine turned out pretty brassy, the toner I got from Sally’s lasted all of 2 shampoos... I generally do my own root touch up with professional color every 3 weeks so I thought highlighting would be a cinch, WRONG! I ended up just coloring over the highlights but now you are making me ponder on whether I should give this kit a try! I’m a glutton for punishment, also it has made me appreciate my stylist so much more!!!!😂
Christian Nelson// Please look into fanolo no yellow...or no orange toner. I purchased the no yellow from Amazon and I have to say...the best toner I've everrr used hands down. Wear gloves if you do get it and don't leave it on too long.
I watched some videos on RUclips before I used it.
Donna Bowman I use that once a week! It really is a great purple shampoo.
I did highlights one time, but it was a disaster. I used too-large sections of hair. but i am going to give it another try with that product and tiny sections. I will wait until I am closer to going back to the office though. Thanks for the demo.
That’s a lot of work and the end result is beautiful! I’m going to try this on my hair. Thank you for sharing. Great video 😘
I thought you did a brilliant Job dear no messing with foils. Your hair looks beautiful 🌸✨🌺
You did a great job on your hair. I got a laugh out of your 'womper' one/strand. Outcome is beautiful. I've been using this color for years. It looks very pretty on you.
beautiful... better than most hairdressers!
Really enjoyed this video! I think I will use the cap to pull my hair through and then put the color on with my fingers so it won't go all the way to the root. I don't have the patience to stand there and pick out strands like you do!,
You did a great job Angie! Your hair looks beautiful!
I used to do this. Results are excellent! My hair fell out over the last two years, and there isn’t very much to color. I really miss having hair.
I'm sorry to hear that...you could try a nice wig, the ones with lace in the front are really comfy and secure! You look beautiful anyway though, if that's you in the photo. Nothing beats a pretty face, work it!
@@jacquelineess1141 I just saw your lovely comment. Thank you, Jacqueline, that means a lot. I love your beautiful name, by the way.
You did an amazing job... it looks beautiful. I've been in isolation for over almost 8 weeks now and have got a good 2 inches of grey to cover up... and although I have all I need to do it, I just can't get motivated. Who knows...at this rate maybe I'll go grey after all! lol
I've been using Esalon for years and I have never halved it. That's a great idea! THANK YOU! :)
I’ve had great success for root coverage with naturtint and no harsh chemicals. I leave it on for 40 minutes. It lasts as well too and doesn’t wash away.
Wow. Your hair looks great. It is a very pretty, soft, flattering, color for you.
Hi Angie I do my own highlights and have for years, but I use a slightly thicker mixture and a comb. It gives very fine highlights rather than the thicker pieces using your method (which is also pretty). I have thick/wavy/curly hair so having some texture is a bit more forgiving than straighter hair for colour placement. I'm 48 and fortunately only have a few white strands around the front (my base colour is a mid blonde) so highlights camoflage them. It saves me a fortune as I used to get them done every eight weeks at a salon a few years ago. I was fortunate to get a trim just before the lockdown and I only get it cut every 12 to 16 weeks anyway (I have long curly hair). I hope this video does give people the confidence to try it at home. My own pandemic try out involved dyeing my own eyebrows, as I usually get threading and a professional tint. I was brave and tried it with success, so although I will still get threading when things normalize I'll be doing my own tinting going forward (just for men beard tint). Be well and best wishes.
Hey, Angie.
Thanks for the updated tutorial. I literally was just saying that I NEED to get brave and try doing my hair, as I just cannot stand it anymore!! And there was your video waiting for me in my notifications! Thanks!
I have to say though, I'm nervous about doing it. I feel like I'm not going to remember how to section it properly, as you did the fast motion as you went through your whole head. Any chance you'd consider uploading the full regular speed version so we can go step by step to it, for us nervous newbies that have never attempted coloring our hair at home!
I was wondering why you decided to not use the hair cap, and did the highlights without it? Also, how does one know whether or not you need to use the toner? Especially if your hair is wet & you don't know what it looks like? Is it ok to dry your hair, & see how it looks & then decide whether you need the toner? Or, must you do it right after your hair is washed out of the highlight dye?
Cheryl Bond you can tone it whenever. Days later If you wish
Oh my gosh I love you!, … “As I read another chapter in my menopause book” you are awesome, that’s hilarious. Thank you gorgeous lady! You gave me the confidence to do it myself! P.S. just one of your fans. 😊👍🏻❤️
I am thinking about trying this for the first time!
In all of my 41 years I have never done my own at home color. I’ve always gone to the salon and left it to the pro’s. If this lockdown goes on much longer I’m afraid I will have to attempt to do it myself. I’m interested in the eSalon color service that you use and recommend. Fingers crossed it will come out decent and won’t need a color correction. Who said salons aren’t essential lol
Thank you so much for this! I know it was a long time ago, but is there any way you remember what nail polish brand and shade you had on at 05:20? If not, no worries, but it's so lovely! This is such a helpful video--Thank you for sharing your coloring tips! :)
You are a pretty woman. Thank you for the tips and tricks. Some guys also have hair that they'd like to add a few highlights. Your video and tips will be helpful. Thank you!
I used to do this too but I don’t miss how much my arms ache after. I always worried a bit while washing just how even my sections were. I hope this ends soon cuz I really miss my stylist. I think for anyone who can’t wait it’s really helpful. Who knows ..should this go another month I may be doing the same thing. Toner should be applied w a gloved hand cuz my stylist always does. Just for yr safety Angie . All the best❤️
Okay! I’m gonna give it a try! I just had major surgery and can’t make it to the salon. Wish me luck!
Love it. Also chuckled at the "In a pinch, you know, in a pandemic" comment! Too funny!!
I agree eSalon covers grey really well.
Hey Angie. I used your link and ordered my first box!! I cannot wait to try out this service. I have been struggling to find the perfect tone of strawberry blonde that will mimic my hair color when I was younger. We natural redheads tend to fade out as we get older, or at least I am. I uploaded some pictures so hopefully the colorist can figure out the perfect shade!
So happy you're trying eSalon! Hopefully they'll get the color just right for you on the first shot, but if not it's really easy to adjust it for the next box!
@@AngieHotandFlashy I'll report back! Thanks again!
Angie you are the BEST!! What a detailed and helpful video in our time of need!! You are one talented woman...Thank you SO MUCH for recommending the 2 separate kits!! This is so appreciated!! Have a great and safe week!! Thank you again!! xo Gina S Idaho
Glad it was helpful! xo ~angie
Hello there! I am a new subscriber to your channel and I love it! Nice to see a fellow New Englander on RUclips! :-) As someone who has always had my hair colored and styled at a salon I have my concerns about touching up my roots with anything other than a spray or powder. Ironically I had purchased an esalon color at an introduction price of $10.00. It has been sitting here a while because of my trepidation. However, after watching your video I feel much more confident! Thanks! P.S. I have picked up lots of useful information on your channel that I plan to use.
Thank you for a great video! I have a question not related to hair... In the opening segment, you have a very nice tan that look natural. Would you mind sharing what self tanner you are using?
I'm not self tanning at the moment but when I do I use Coola Anti-Aging Serum on my face and Isle of Paradise Drops on my body!
Wow thank you so much for this video! I think it turned out great!!!!! Who would think you did it yourself!!! Gonna find time to try this soon!
I've watched you for a while and love your input but never subscribed (silly, I know). I'm subscribed now. Also, I just wanna throw it out there that I'm 37 and your videos are beneficial to such a broad age range. You're so youthful. Your clothes and jewelry as well as your makeup color selections and style. It's every versatile. I feel like no matter if someone is 25 or 55+ they can watch and try things from your videos. Love your eye look videos as well as hair and concealer ones. I learned something from every one.
Thx for the video. Is there a reason you didn’t use the esalon highlights kit?? Perhaps cost? Also, in total, how long did this 2 step process take you? Thx - looks great!!
Ohhhhh i need this!! Just heard that my salon wont be reopening!😱😳 so after 20 years going there, im off to the shops to buy regrowth & blonde for tips! I have 💯 white regrowth, so fingers crossed this works out🤪😁. Thanks for your video, yoy make it look easy!!😁🥰
Thank you!!!! Skipped my last color appointment....now im in real need!!!! I color my hair reddish burgandy from a straight nice dark brown....any thots on which brand I might use to give gentle highlights that aren't brassy??? Your hair looks great 👍
eSalon has a highlight kit now that might be good for you!
This process worked perfectly for me, Thanks for sharing!
“In a pinch in a pandemic” 😂
Thanks Angie. I’ve been colouring my hair for years and loved your previous videos that showed how to cover greys. 😍
Jules M Right??? I love how Angie said it so casually, as if it’s been part of our vernacular forever! 😆 Reality bites... 😕
that made me laugh too! Angie's the cutest. The kid never ages.
Fabulous, Angie. Thank you soooooo much. I'm headed out to get the highlighter kit. right now!
I use E-salon also & really like their service & color products, shampoo & conditioner is so so. I've also used their highlight kit which is cool because it comes with a purple toner & a toning mask that you can use later on to keep the brassiness away but may give Loreal a try next time for the highlights. Great video!
Wow!.......excellent coloring here Angie, you nailed it 💗💕
Root Rescue works really well to cover gray roots. My hair usually pulls red and looks brassy, but I got the medium blonde #7, and I love it. No brassy tones!
You have the patience of Job. I admire that. I pooped out after your finished the front. Congrats on getting through the back portions. LOL. It looks great.
