#I know it is partially cause I used to dye and bleach my hair a lot

[xboobayaga]

it is such a scam that my hair is so curly when it's wet and then dries to be almot completely straight ... like come on let me have some curls pls 😅

[astridsbirdskulls]

After seeing multiple people talk about Neil's cruncy/greasy hair from all the dye and/or bleach, I have many opinions.

Cause first of all, with how long neil probably keeps his hair, that's all replaced within like 6 months at most. (His haircut is probably choppy though because we all know he cuts it himself because he would never "waste" money on getting it cut somewhere nice.)

Second, while we read Neil's pov in the books he's been dying his hair black, so no bleach necessary. And while I can't remember how long he spent in Millport, leftover bleach from his previous identity would be cut by the time he's at Palmetto.

Third (this one requires more explanation so bear with me), after a decade of disguising himself (along with help from Mary) I think he's REALLY good at making his dye jobs look as natural as possible cause even though people dye their hair all the time and having a hair color other than your natural one doesn't make you suspicious, they would have to pass through security with ID that matched however they were supposed to look at that time. That all to say that I don't think he would have super greasy hair either (just the normal greasy that comes from using 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner). From the experience of frequently helping my sister touch up her roots, when you're just doing roots, you don't usually need to redye the rest of the hair. (Root touch ups for a normal person, aka not Neil, are about 6 weeks.) And in my sister's case, her natural hair is a dark brown and does need to be bleached to dye it the red that she keeps it, Neil putting black over his red hair would not be that difficult and I dont think he wouldn't continue to layer black over the parts that are already dyed black when he doesn't need to, partially because it's a waste of dye and when he's finally by himself he would save the dye as long as he could, and also a super dark black on someone who spends as much time outside as he does it wouldn't make sense (or look natural) as opposed to if it faded naturally in the sun.

TLDR: So, basically, I don't think Neil would have crunchy or super greasy hair, just the hair or someone who doesn't care enough to take care of it because it was never his priority.

(after Jean bleaches and dyes it red it would definitely be a little crispy but I think it would fade and grow quick enough that it doesn't last that long)

Dumbasses in Quarantine

This is my Bog Exchange fic! I finally finished! This is for the lovely @herostag I hope they like it!

Special thanks to Dani and Doug for beating my grammar with a stick. Ily <3

This is 2.9K words of idiots being idiots during the plague. Just pure fluff, no CW here. Modern Au.

1. Geralt had finally had enough of Jaskier complaining about all the takeout they had been consuming since everything had gone on lockdown, so here he was, watching a pot of noodles cook while Jaskier was in the living room weeding his island in Animal Crossing for the third time that week. He stirs the spaghetti around before grabbing a second pot and the jar of pasta sauce that he had bought at some point in the last few years. Geralt pours the sauce into the pot, throws some Italian seasoning in and hmms at the consistency before ladling some pasta water into the sauce to thin it out slightly. “Dinner’s almost ready” Geralt softly calls to Jaskier before going back to his noodles, fishing one out to check the doneness. Geralt bites into it and makes a face at the sweetness as Jaskier walks into the kitchen.

 “Everything all right there?” Jaskier inquires, coming over to look into the pots on the stove. 

“Hmmm, I think so. Taste this?” Geralt fishes another noodle out to hand over to Jaskier, who eats it with a hum. 

“That doesn’t taste right,” Jaskier says thoughtfully. “But I don't know enough about cooking to dispute it.” 

Geralt hums again, “Think it will be fine?” 

Jaskier just shrugs and goes to set the table, leaving Geralt to finish putting the meal together. Geralt tilts his head at the pots on the stove before pulling out his phone to text  Eskel ‘is pasta supposed to be sweet when cooking?’

While waiting for a reply, Geralt drains the noodles and dumps them into the sauce to stir them in before his phone rings with a call from Eskel. 

“You tried a noodle and it tasted sweet?”

“Yeah, is it supposed to be like that?”

There is a moment of silence where Lambert can be heard laughing in the background before Eskel replies, “Are you sure you put salt in the water?”

“Yeah, poured a bunch of salt in there like you said to.”

Eskel hums, “Are you sure it wasn't sugar? Did you make sure to taste it first?”

The silence on Geralt's side is telling, and Lambert can be heard dying in the background. 

“Thanks Eskel,” Geralt says before hanging up and staring down at the pot of sugared spaghetti. 

“Hey Jask, how do you feel about getting takeout again?”

Jaskier sighs, “What happened?”

Geralt blushes “I… I may have put sugar in the water instead of salt…”

“Oh… but the sauce?” 

“I put some of the pasta water in the sauce to thin it.”

Jaskier starts giggling, “G-Geralt... noooo.”

Geralt sighs, wearily turning off the stove. “So takeout?” 

“Yeah, takeout is fine. Whatever you feel like.”

Geralt hums and pulls up the delivery app, “Sorry, Jask.”

Jaskier sidles up to him, giving him a half hug, “Thanks for trying.” He leans fully into him so he can see Geralt's phone as they order.

2. A while into quarantine, Jaskier decided he needed some greenery in his life, since he couldn’t leave the house. This led Jaskier to order himself a cute little cactus from a local nursery for the next time they order a grocery pick up. Talking Geralt into stopping by the shop on the way back from the store proved easier than Jaskier had anticipated. Geralt had begrudgingly agreed after hours of Jaskier’s pouting and puppy eyes wearing him down. 

Jaskier dances around the apartment with his new treasure before placing it on the sunny windowsill in their living room. Geralt rolls his eyes but smiles at his roommates' antics, “You do know how to take care of it don’t you?”

Jaksier pouts at him, “It’s a cactus, how hard can it be! I just water it every so often and bam, beautiful thriving mini Geralt!”

Geralt huffs at him, grabbing a controller for their gaming console, “You promised I could destroy you at Mortal Combat if we picked up the plant.”

“Yes, yes Geralt I’m coming, just let me water my precious child.”

Weeks later, Little Geralt starts looking a bit droopy, causing Jaskier to water him, but unfortunately Jaskier does not account for his ADHD and lack of calendar filling out, and proceeds to water the poor cactus every day for the next two weeks, water logging and eventually killing poor Little Geralt.

Once Jaskier realizes, he cries to Geralt only a little and has a funeral for the cactus as he throws it away, being the absolute most dramatic about it as possible. Geralt just rolls his eyes at the antics and adds a new plant to the order list to pick up the next time they have their outing to go get groceries.

Jaskier gives Geralt the biggest hug when he realises they’re heading to the plant store and talks excitedly about how determined he is to to not kill Little Geralt the Second; Geralt just rolls his eyes half heartedly but helps Jaskier set up a calendar to keep track of when he’s watered the cactus. This works for about a month before Jaskier gets busy and forgets about his little plant, frying on the windowsill, until Geralt notices about three months later.

“Hey Jask, your cactus is looking a bit… shriveled.”

Jaskier rushes into the living room “NO!” He yells as he slides to a stop on his knees before the  dried up little plant “Noooooooo, Little Geralt the Second, nooooo!” he shakes his fists at the ceiling.

Geralt pats his shoulder comfortingly, “At least it lived longer this time.”

Jaskier shakes his head with a sigh. “I’m a terrible plant parent.”

Geralt hmms consolingly, “We can get you another. I’ll try to help you keep better track of it this time.” 

Jaskier nods, “Thanks Geralt,” and picks up his dead plant to go throw it out. 

Geralt just hmms and pulls up the pick-up list on his phone to add a new little cactus.

Three months later, Little Geralt the Third is thriving in its place on the windowsill, happily soaking up the sun on a bright spring day as a breeze comes through the window. Jaskier dances around the living room, vacuuming and dusting as Geralt cleans the kitchen of the previous night’s actually decent attempt at cooking. Jaskier sings along to ABBA, twirling with his duster mic when disaster strikes poor Little Geralt the Third. Jaskier swirls too close to the window and pops his hip at just the wrong time and the plant wobbles before being pushed off the edge and falls three stories down to the concrete sidewalk down below. Jaskier freezes at the crashing sound and turns to look out the window, staring down at his poor, broken plant.

“Nooooooo, Geralt!” Jaskier yells, and Geralt comes running in from the kitchen, startled by Jaskier’s cry. 

“Jask?!” 

Jaskier just points down at the sidewalk, falling to his knees “Geralt, I killed him! I killed our son! To ABBA!” 

Jaskier sprawls out on the floor dramatically, mourning the fate of poor Little Geralt the Third, who had been thriving wonderfully before going splat on the pavement. 

Geralt sits down next to his dramatic roommate and pats his leg, “That one was actually doing pretty well. Maybe we could get another and just find a better place for it to sit?”

Jaskier sniffles and looks through his lashes at Geralt, “Really?” 

Geralt nods before being tackled to the ground in a tight hug. 

“Thanks Geralt.” Jaskier whispers, nuzzling into his friend.

3. Geralt stood staring into the mirror at the red roots growing into his perfect silver platinum hair. He pouts at it, looking at his hair and then back down at his phone at the pictures of his past beautiful silver hair. 

“I can do it, how hard can it be?” he grumbles, glaring back at his roots. He nods to himself before searching different bleaches, toners, and silver dyes that are available at their local beauty shop.

A week and two trips to the store later, Geralt is once again standing in the bathroom and glaring at his roots in the mirror. “How hard can it be...”

Five hours later, Jaskier comes home from the park to Geralt sitting on the couch in a hoodie with the hood on and scrunched up around his face, pouting.

“So how did it go?” he asks.

Geralt grunts in response.

“Oh it can’t be that bad,” comes Jaskier’s exasperated reply, reaching for the hood over the back of the couch.

Geralt growls and catches his hand, yanking and pulling Jaskier over the couch and partially into his lap.

Jaskier laughs and reaches up again with both hands, trying to use one as a distraction. Geralt growls again and tackles him to the floor to pin him, where they tussle around before Jaskier gets an upper hand and pulls the hood off. Geralt freezes as Jaskier stares at him with wide eyes and a growing smile.

 “Don’t,” he growls.

Jaskier’s grin turns into giggles, then into full on laughter. “Geralt! Your hair!” 

Geralt sits back with a pout, still sitting on Jaskier. “I know, it's horrible.”

“It's bright purple! What did you do!?”

Geralt flushes, “I forgot to set a timer and left the toner in too long. It should wash out and wear off in a few weeks,” he grumbles.

Jaskier continues to giggle. “Well at least it's not permanent, and you bleached the roots pretty well.”

Geralt sighs and nods before laying down on Jaskier for a consolation cuddle. “Yeah, at least there's that.”

4. Geralt’s birthday was coming up and Jaskier was determined to celebrate it, even if they couldn’t go on their customary birthday bar crawl that they had gone on for both of their birthdays since they had been roommates in college. Jaskier wanted to go the extra mile for his bestest friend in the whole world and decided that he was going to make Geralt a homemade cake, icing drizzle and all. Jaskier had scoured the internet for weeks trying to find a cake he thought geralt would like and that he thought he could make with his limited baking abilities. He finally found the perfect recipe for a simple strawberry pound cake that he only had to buy a minimal amount of extra ingredients for. 

The day of Geralt's birthday, Jaskier sets up in the kitchen and banishes Geralt to the living room to play his new Witcher game while Jaskier makes the cake. 

He starts by setting out everything he needs and getting the beaters set up and his recipe out. He preheats the oven and then gets to work measuring everything out carefully, looking back at his recipe often, so often he doesn’t quite notice that he’s grabbed the salt container instead of the sugar and measures out the three cups the recipe calls for before adding it into the wet ingredients bowl to cream together as stated by the recipe. Jaskier goes about making his cake and mixing it up, carefully pouring it into the disposable cake tin they had bought specially for the event before putting it in the oven and carefully setting a timer on his phone.

He takes a break for a moment to make a cup of tea before cleaning up the mess from the cake and mixing up the simple drizzle icing for the cake.

The timer goes off and Jaskier pokes the cake with a toothpick as he has been directed, frowning at the lopsided cake. 

“Is that how it should look?” he mutters to himself, looking at the clean toothpick. “Guess it’s done.”

He pulls the cake out of the oven and  sets it on the rack to cool, poking little holes in it with the toothpick to help it cool and absorb some of the icing later.

After 30 minutes, he drizzles the icing over the cake, humming happily to himself. 

“Geralt, do you want to do cake now or later?” he calls into the living room. Geralt hmms and stands before replying, “Now.”

Jaskier grins and grabs them plates, forks, and a knife to cut the cake with.

Geralt stands beside him at the counter, smiling softly at the cake Jaskier has made him. 

“Thanks Jask,” he says softly. 

Jaskier grins fully at him. “Happy birthday, Geralt!”

They cut into the cake and serve themselves. Geralt happily eats his, reaching out to get seconds while Jaskier frowns at his slice. “Does this taste right to you?” he takes another bite while Geralt shrugs.

“Tastes fine to me,” he replies, happy to continue eating what his Jaskier has made him. 

Jaskier frowns more and looks at his recipe, “I dunno, doesn’t it taste salty?” 

Geralt hmms in thought before continuing to eat, “Suppose so, but it’s not too bad.”

Jaskier gasps. “Geralt! No Geralt, stop eating that! I must have mixed up the salt and sugar when I was measuring, oh! It's terrible, I’m so sorry, Geralt,” he whines, looking almost at the verge of tears. 

This causes Geralt to pause his gremlin-like cake eating, setting the plate down before pulling his best friend into a tight hug, resting his head against the others. “So maybe you had a booboo with it and it’s a little salty. You know I’m not picky, and it tastes fine and vaguely like strawberries. I’ll eat it anyway, Jask.” he grumbles out.

Jaskier sniffles. “But you deserve a good cake that’s made correctly.”

Geralt hums, “Maybe, but this is something you’ve made for me with all your heart, and I think it tastes alright, and I will keep eating it, because you made it for me and that makes it taste all the sweeter.”

Jaskier sniffles again, squeezing the man in his arms tightly “Oh, you big softy! You don’t have to eat it.” 

“But I want to.”

“Fine.” Jaskier sighs, nuzzling the broad chest he’s pressed against. “Love you”

Geralt smiles softly, pressing a kiss to Jaskiers temple. “Love you too, you disaster.” 

Jaskier gasps and smacks his chest “You!”

Geralt laughs and grabs his cake before dragging Jaskier to the couch. “Come on, I demand my birthday cuddles.”

Jaskier puffs his cheeks but settles against Geralt on the couch, holding the controller for him “If this is my penance.”

5. Usually Jaskier did the laundry while Geralt did dishes. This was because Jaskier had many a delicate piece in his wardrobe and he did not trust Geralt to treat his clothes the right way if he were to do the laundry. Geralt didn’t care much either way who did the dishes and who did the laundry, as long as the chores ended up done in the end. This was how their kitchen, laundry nook, and part of their living room ended up absolutely covered in bubbles.

They had decided to switch up the chore rotation for the week because the dishes weren’t too bad and Jaskier hadn’t worn any of his ‘delicate’ pieces in the past week and a half, meaning there was nothing of his Geralt could mess up. The switching of chores had unforeseen consequences however, in that neither remembers exactly how to do the new chore, as they hadn’t had to in at least a year. Rather than ask the other for help, both Jaskier and Geralt decided to wing it and try their best. 

Jaskier stares down at Geralt, slav squatting, staring at the bubbles that were slowly invading their apartment via the laundry and kitchen. 

“So, I couldn’t remember which dish liquid was the one for the dishwasher and put the red one in, which was apparently the wrong choice…… What did you do to create the bubbles in the washer?” 

Geralt grunts. “That was the dawn dish soap that we hand wash the alcohol glasses with,” he sighs. “I may have put a full cup of laundry detergent in the washing machine”

Jaskier gasps “A full- Geralt! The entire cup!? That’s at least double the amount you’re supposed to use!” 

Geralt pouts. “I couldn’t remember how much,” he grumbles

“You could have asked me!”

This earns Jaskier a raised eyebrow and the stink eye.

“Fair enough,” he giggles. “We should have asked each other when we were confused.”

Geralt nods before standing. “Well I guess we should turn the appliances off before the bubbles get worse… wish me luck”

Jaskier nods and jokingly salutes him. “I’ll remember you dearly.”

Geralt chuckles and shakes his head before wading into the bubbles to stop the dishwasher and washing machine cycles.

A minute later he reappears, covered in bubbles from head to toe, looking like some sort of grumpy snowman. Jaskier laughs at him before Geralt smirks and captures him in a bear hug, causing the man to shriek. “Nooo! Geralt my clothes! Ackkkk!”

Geralt swings him, picking him up slightly. “I think if we let the bubbles settle we can clean up in a little, but we should change first.”

Jaskier pouts “The point of you doing it was so only one of us had to change.”

Geralt gives him a toothy grin, carrying him towards their bedrooms to change. “But you laughed at me, that demands retribution.”

Jaskier just sticks his tongue out at him before being set down in front of his room. “Wanna play Smash while we wait?”

Geralt grins, “What, wanna get wrecked that badly?” he winks to Jaskiers affronted gasp before going in his room to change.

guess I’ll add my tag list huh

Modern AU - Evie somehow gets Mabel to dye her hair an unnatural color.

Your wish is my writing assignment! It’s here! The first Follower Celebration fic, I hope you enjoy! 

Below the cut for dash scrolling purposes.

“You can’t be serious.”

“Oh, I think you’ll find I’m as serious as a heart attack.”

Theta looked back and forth in disbelief between Evie and Mabel. “You’re just letting her do this?” she asked Evie.

Evie hummed in response, “Not only am I letting her do it, I’m actively encouraging it. Helping even.”

“It was partially her idea after all,” Mabel added.

“Yep! Mabesie was gonna go for a boring normal color, but I convinced her to go for something a bit more exciting. Go big or go home, am I right?”

“Tragically that does seem to be the motto you live by,” Theta sighed at the memories of all her blonde friend's antics.

“Hey! I make life interesting so you can get that expression off your face right now!” Evie huffed and crossed her arms. Mabel giggled, watching her two friends argue.

“Have you both somehow completely forgotten the pixie cut incident?” Theta raised an eyebrow.

“No, but this won’t be anything like that,” Mabel insisted, carefully reading the back of the box in front of her.

“You cried all afternoon and then wore hats for the next month,” Theta reminded her. “Statistically speaking, you and impulsive hair decisions don’t go well together.”

“Theta,” Mabel looked at her seriously over the top of the box of light pink hair dye she was holding. “I’ve been thinking about this for a while now, and am determined to see it through. So, are you going to be supportive or are you going to keep grouching?”

“Theta the Grouch,” Evie giggled from where she sat at the table putting on gloves in preparation for her role as designated hair dyer.

Theta faltered, “Of course I’ll support you in your decisions Mabesie! I just want to make sure this is absolutely what you want.”

“It is,” Mabel said simply.

“Well then,” Theta clapped her hands, “let’s get to it.”

-----

Mabel’s hair looked really good in Theta’s opinion. The light pink suited her. And they had managed to succeed in dyeing it with only minimal arguing, swearing, and crying.

“You’re gonna DIE Mabesie, it looks amaze-balls!” Evie crowed and looked smug with herself. “And you have me to thank for it!”

“Let us not forget my role in this,” Theta cut in.

“What?” Evie snorted, “Trying to discourage her from making the best decision of her life?”

Theta shot her a glare, “No, making sure the hair got dyed properly and no one got hurt from improperly applying bleach.”

“Touché,” Evie said with a finger resting on her chin. “Mabel truly is blessed to have us, right Mabel?”

“Can you guys just let me see what it looks like?” Mabel asked in exasperation, clearly over her friend’s chatter.

“Of course,” Evie grinned.

“Three, two, one,” Theta counted down, and on ‘one’ Evie held up a small mirror for Mabel to see her new ‘do for the first time.

“What do you think?” Evie asked excitedly. Mabel’s face went still, and she carefully titled her head back and forth, examining her newly pink hair.

Theta and Evie shared a nervous glance as Mabel’s silence stretched on.

“We can try to find another dye kit and dye it back to your original color,” Evie stammered in response to the continued silence.

“Or we could find a salon that would do it professionally,” Theta offered.

Mabel’s face suddenly broke into a wide, and slightly evil grin. “Nah, I love it!”

“What the hell Mabesie?” Theta demanded as Evie made an angry screeching sound. “We were so worried!”

“I know,” Mabel laughed, “but I had to get you back for subjecting me to your bickering for the past few hours!”

“Well played,” Evie conceded.

Theta nodded, “Respect.”

“Thank you, thank you very much,” Mabel gave a very bad Elvis impression, causing the other two women to groan.

“Can we go get ice cream now?” Evie asked hopefully.

“Yeah, I think we deserve it,” Theta said.

“Can we go to that one place with the neon signs?” Mabel chimed in. “We could get some great photos with my new hair!”

“Let’s go!” Evie cried, shepherding the others out of the apartment and into the bright New York City sun.

For you, what’s the worst thing about getting up in the morning? What about the worst thing about going to bed tonight? Knowing in the back of my mind that despite my hope, today's going to be the same as yesterday. I dread most nights the process of lying down and actually falling asleep, because it can take hours. Do you prefer regular or diet soft drinks? Not only do I think diet sodas taste bad, but the artificial sweetener gives me awful headaches, anyway. What do you tend to wear if you’re just hanging about the house for the day? I'm only always in my pjs. When was the last time you dyed your hair? Did you do it yourself or get it done at a hairdresser? Ugh... it's been a very, very long time. It was done by a hairdresser, but per usual, the color didn't stick well. I am DYING to bleach my hair so I can dye it pastel pink, light silver, or like a creamsicle orange. I edited some pictures of myself to "try" these colors on, and omg I loved them all. Does having to wear a mask stop you doing things? Is this because you struggle wearing one or you just don’t like it? Not really, no. I barely go anywhere at all though, so I have Have you ever witnessed a car accident? Or have you perhaps been involved in one yourself? Were you at fault? Yes; yes; no. How many books do you read in a year? Do you enjoy reading or do you have to really force yourself to sit down and read? VERY few. I've only just gotten back into semi-regularly reading since Sara got me into Wings of Fire. I have one friend though that is an INCREDIBLE bookworm; she keeps track of how many books she's read in a year, and she's already beyond one a day. It's incredible. If you have pets, where did they come from? A breeder, a rescue or maybe a friend who bred their pet? Roman came from Ashley's inlaws'. They have like an infestation of cats needing to be spayed, so they didn't at all mind letting me have one because I'd been wanting a cat for a long time. I love my baby boy so much. Venus came from The Gourmet Rodent, a snake breeding (and F/T rat provider, as the name suggests) business from Florida. I highly recommend them. Their customer service was fantastic when I was worried about Venus not eating. They even checked up with me a few months following my emails to ensure she was doing well. Have you ever seen an episode of My 600lb Life? No. I absolutely NEVER could. As an obese person who's been fighting her fucking ass off to lose weight for years, I don't want to be further depressed. Do you feel bad when someone asks you to hang out and you say no? Oh yes I do. Ngl, if I don't want to hang for whatever reason, I'm the kind that makes up an excuse to not seem *as* "rude" (quotations bc it's technically not rude at all, anxiety just tells me it is). When was the last time you turned down plans with someone? What did you decide to do instead? Ummmm I'm not sure. Have you ever had any “unusual” or exotic pets? If you could own any animal, what would it be and why? Do you consider iguanas or Chinese water dragons as "exotic/unusual?" Nothing stranger than that, really. I would never, ever own a truly exotic animal that wouldn't do well in captivity. I do however pretty desperately want to rescue an opposum one day, though. I positively adore them; they're my second-favorite animal. How often do you wash your hair? I don't even have a regular schedule for that anymore, honestly... I have to every time I shower because my hair gets oily FAST, but I try to put off showers as long as I can handle now because of how bad my selfcare has been for multiple reasons... What have you found the hardest about the current pandemic? Not seeing an end in sight because people are fucking dumb. Shit's not going to get better unless things drastically change. And what about the easiest? Has anything improved in your life because of what’s happened? Certainly nothing has improved. Not much has changed for me, considering I barely ever left the house to begin with. If you have multiple pets, do they get along with each other? Are they related or even the same species? They ignore each other, really. Surprisingly, even. Roman will sit on my bed and watch Venus slither about occasionally if she's out, even meerkat pose haha, and playful as he is, it's unexpected that he *does* mostly ignore her. What was the last meal you ate? Did you have anything good? Breakfast; I had Special K cereal. I've finally started to get back on track with eating okay. Do you live somewhere where strangers say hi to you in the street? Would you like to live somewhere like that? Where we live now, if you pass someone outside in the car, it's normal and really expected to give a little wave. That's very normal here in the South though, really; you don't just have to be in your own neighborhood. Have you ever tried any of those meal replacement shakes? The chocolate Equate ones are normal in my diet, actually. They're really not bad at all and played a big role in me losing ~60lbs before. Funnily enough, I haven't found a popular name brand I like, though. Cheap stuff isn't always bad. Do you make up silly nicknames for your pets or family members? "Silly" ones, not really, besides Roman. I call him "weirdo" and "crazy" a lot, but nothing truly unique. What’s your favorite thing to take photographs of? Are you actually any good at photography? Nature or boudoir (only shot it once, but I love it and the confidence it gives people). Being as modest as possible, I honestly do think I'm pretty good at it. Do you have anything interesting planned for the rest of the day? How about for tomorrow or the weekend? I haven't had anything interesting planned in eons, it seems like. Are you going to take the vaccine for COVID once it becomes available? Once it proves to be reliable and safe, hell yes. I'm doing my goddamn part in ending this shit. How much housework have you done lately? Is this more or less than usual? A bit more than usual since I haven't finished decorating my room since moving... I've been doing it very slowly and gradually. I need to just finish it already, I'm just so unmotivated. What gifts are you hoping to get for your next birthday (or Christmas, whichever one is coming up next)? I'm fucking dying to get my tat redone/improved. Been waiting since LAST Christmas when I didn't get to use my own gifted money. Do you suffer from any form of motion sickness? No. Do you contribute regularly to any Facebook groups at all? "I’m a member of plenty, but hardly ever post." <<<< Same. I react to posts a lot, though. Just don't really make my own. When was the last time you weighed yourself? Were you happy with the numbers you saw? Ugh... when I went to the doctor I think last week. I knew it'd be bad, but the verification fucking sucked. Since moving, I've gained ~30lbs. Have you got any chronic health issues? What do you do to try and manage them as best you can? YIKES I am a CATASTROPHE. I've got a dictionary of mental health issues that I'm not gonna go through individually, but I deal with them via prescription medications and therapy and sheer will. Who taught you how to drive? My driver's ed teacher. It was mandatory in HS. What was your high school mascot? A firebird. Did you go to your senior prom? Yes. What did you do after graduation? I very briefly went to a community college. What was your first job? GameStop sales associate. If my social anxiety wasn't fucking shit, I probably would have liked it. What did you want to be when you grew up? Somewhat in order: paleontologist, vet, movie director, game designer, animal biologist, video editor (VERY brief), and photographer. Writer, poet, and artist were always something I wanted to do in my free time OR full time if I was lucky. Do you remember the first time you drank a beer? I've never tried beer and don't want to. It smells fucking awful, and because my dad is a recovered alcoholic who was addicted to that in specific, I just want nothing to do with it. Did you ever try cigarettes? No. I have absolutely never understood the appeal, but with a very addictive personality and wild anxiety, I never wanted to risk it, anyway. How did you spend your summers growing up? LOADS of swimming in the pool, jumping on the trampoline, and just playing outside in general. If you could change anything from your teenage years, would you? I'd absolutely change how I found happiness only in Jason. Do you remember your first time? No, because at that time, I didn't really realize it was sex. I know that sounds weird, like "how would you not know?", but just trust me. I don't feel like retrospecting on it. I do remember our first *kiss*-kiss, though. How much did you make per hour at your first job? I don't recall. Favorite home-cooked meal growing up? I looooved spaghetti. Favorite place to eat out growing up? McDonald's, duh, lol. Did your parents live in a different country before you were born? No. They were from different states, though. Do you have a preferred coffee brand? Don't like coffee. Have you ever dated someone who was terrible with money? No. How often do you paint your nails? Never. Do you know anyone who's related to a current or former world leader? Not that I know of. Do you do your own taxes, or do you hire a professional? I don't pay taxes because I'm unemployed. What is something you don't have any natural talent for? Speaking. At all. What is something you frequently forget? "Numbers." <<<< BIG fat same. How do you feel about your body? How much I hate it is on my mind literally every waking moment of my life to some degree. Who is someone you would like to get to know better? So I have this Facebook friend Courtlynn who seems very similar to me, and I'd love to get to know her better. We interact via posts here and there, but have never seriously talked. What's your opinion on assisted suicide? I am very much for it when a person is in serious pain and recovery is not possible. Like one of my greatest nightmares is being paralyzed from the neck down, and I stg I would spite whichever fucker had jurisdiction over me living. That would be absolute torture for me. At what point do you consider a relationship to be "long-term?" A year, so long as you were consistently together. Stable. What jobs did your parents have when you were growing up? My dad's been a mailman my entire life, and he had a second job at Lowe's for a while as a carpenter. He hated it. Mom worked with computer data at the hospital when I was very young, and then she was an assitant and special needs teacher for a long time. Do they still have these jobs? Or different jobs? Or have they retired? ^ about Dad. It's his only job now. Mom is currently on disability. Do you have a cell contract plan, or are you on a pre-paid plan? Would you believe me if I said I'm unsure? Haha. I use a Tracfone, and my mom takes care of whatever plan comes with that, so idk. Would your parents be okay with you dating someone of another race? Mom, absolutely. I'm unsure about Dad. I mean he wouldn't *seriously* care so long as they were good to me, but I think he might still be kinda racist. Or he just jokes about it a lot (which should not be joked about, btw). Do you like when friends stop by unexpectedly? "No way lol. I’m very much of a loner and want to be “prepared” to spend time with people." <<<< Absolutely this. How strong are your feelings for the last person you kissed? I love her very, very much. What was the last thing someone else bought for you? Food, I'm sure. Are you attracted to the last person you exchanged numbers with? I haven't seen a picture of her in years, so I have no idea. I remember she was beautiful, though. Is music a daily part of your life? Not daily, no. Some days I only watch YT videos instead of listen to music. What do you think of country music? Not a fan at all. It's ironic considering it was my favorite genre as a little kid. There's the occasional country song I like (mostly ones from my childhood, though), but those are few and far between. Tim McGraw, now, I love. Did you go to your high school’s graduation? Yeah, even though I didn't want to. I didn't care enough about the actual ceremony. Who was the last person to message you on Facebook? What would you do if that person told you they have feelings for you? That would be the woman I took family pictures for. She's married and we barely know each other, so I can assure you she doesn't. When you apply your make-up, do you do it in a specific order? On the very rare occasion I wore makeup, yes. Eyeliner, usually eyeshadow, mascara, and most rarely, black lipstick. Does it matter to you if your significant other smokes? Yes. Who was the last person you had a deep conversation with? Mom, I think. Do you like where you are in life right now? HA. Is your mom overbearing? No.

S H O W E R // Kirishima x Reader

Requested by Anon:  OK OK I JUST HAD AN IDEA FOR KIRI AND IM JUST AASJKLD LIKE PICTURE KIRI AND READER ARE SUPER CLOSE FRIENDS AND THE READER JUST TOOK A SHOWER OR MAYBE ITS IN HER ROOM BUT LIKE SHE STICKS HER HEAD OUT THE DOOR AND ASKS HIM FOR ONE OF HIS SHIRTS NBD CAUSE LIKE SHE FORGOT HERS OR ALL OF HERS ARE DIRTY OR SOMETHING. So KIRI gives her his and she walks out and KIRI just COMBUSTS cause that’s! His! Crush! In! His! Shirt!! (I just wants soft blushy kiri w all my heart) feel free to change it if you want

ahhh sorry this took so long! Tons of school work piled up. For any others who requested, I’m working on them! So sorry for the delays!

but alas, here it is! The prompt was super cute, so I hope it lives up to your expectations! Hope you enjoy!

The two heroes collapsed onto the couch, ragged breathing and drenched with sweat. “You’ve gotten so much stronger since the last time we trained together! I could barely keep up.” The redhead grinned. “Some serious training every day is all it takes!” His fists hardened as he pumped them together. His eyes flittered over to the girl beside him, his entire manly demeanour melting away. “You did pretty amazingly yourself!” He hesitated, eyes dancing over her body. “Oh, uhh... I know your quirk has a pretty strong drawback, do you need anything?” He shuffled a bit closer, concerned as she slumped further into the couch, arm slung over her face. “Hm. I think I’m okay... although a shower would be pretty killer right now.” Kirishima lit up, jumping off the sofa with newfound energy. “Then come on! You're my guest so you can use my bathroom!” (Y/n) laughed, moving to cover her mouth with the back of her hand. Kirishima froze. “You’re such a dork. We’ve known each other since we were kids. I think we’re past the whole ‘guest’ phase!” His shoulders dropped as he let out a relieved sigh. Grunting, she pushed herself of the couch. She stood beside him, hands on her hips. “C’mon then!” Kirishima nodded, cheeks flushed a pastel pink.

The two headed for his room where (Y/n) was directed to his en-suite and Kirishima settled at his desk.

 (Y/n) peeled her sweaty clothing off, chucking it into a pile on the floor. She nabbed a fresh towel from one of the cabinets and scanned over the bottles littering the basin for some body wash. There were mostly bottles of red hair dye and bleach, different brands, but all mostly used. She couldn’t help the smile tugging at her lips.

 Kirishima sat absentmindedly at his desk, eyes trailing over the wood grain. (Y/n) was right. They had been friends since they were kids. Each of their houses was one in the same; home. Unannounced arrivals at strange times of the day weren’t uncommon, usually ending in late nights with some video games. His mind wandered back to (Y/n). Recently, whenever she came over, he had the compulsion to treat her. Always check up on her and what she wanted, always offer to make her life easier. She deserved it. He had a good hunch what the feeling was tugged at his heart whenever she was around. However, he was totally in the dark when it came to what to do about it. But that didn’t matter, for she was his light. And he would always protect her.

 “Ejiro?” The boy snapped out of his trance, falling comedically off the side of his chair with a loud thud. He scrambled to sit up, clutching the back of his head. He turned toward the bathroom door, grinning as (Y/n) poked her head through the partially opened door. “Would it be okay if I borrowed some clothes? Mine are all gross and sweaty...” she trailed off, eyes averted to the floor. “Wha-uh-“ He cleared his throat, eyes darting to his closet. “Yeah that’s fine, give me a second.” He got to his feet and headed to his closet. He started hastily shifting through them. He eventually settled on a pair of pyjama pants and a signature Crimson Riot T-Shirt. He gingerly knocked on the door, waiting a moment before cracking it open and slipping his hand inside. He felt a delicate brush of skin against his hand as she took the clothes. He swallowed, trying to banish the heat that rose to his cheeks. “Ah, Thank you Eiji!” She chimed. He managed to get “your welcome” from out of his throat, before he shut the door and headed back to his desk, deciding to try and finish up some homework.

  He almost forgot about (Y/n), the rush of the shower becoming background noise. Even when the water stopped and the bathroom door creaked open, he paid it no mind. If he could just finish this one question-

He caught sight of (Y/n) in the corner of his eye, watching her nonchalantly plop herself down onto his bed, bouncing slightly with a large grin plastered on her face.

He focused his eyes back onto his desk, the heat in his cheeks felt like a slap to the face.

“Ah shoot, sorry Kiri. My hair is gonna get your clothes super wet. And it’s probably dripping everywhere.” Kirishima finally turned toward her, his words becoming lodged in his throat as soon as he saw her.

She was seated loosely cross-legged on his bed, hair sopping wet and nearly lost in his large T-Shirt, but my god did Kirishima think she looked absolutely adorable and perfect in his clothes.

He couldn’t take his eyes off her, (not that he really wanted to) and his cheeks felt as if they were on fire.

Luckily for him, (Y/n) was too preoccupied with fixing her hair, trying her best to keep it from dripping over his bed. “It’s fine... you’re fine...” her attention was finally brought to him, to which Kirishima realised his words had finally come out of his mouth. He quickly spoke up again, scratching the back of his neck. “I-I mean... I mean I don’t mind, if you... if your hair gets my bed wet, it’ll uuuh. Dry out.”

(Y/n) grinned. “Hmm, you up for some Video games?” She asked. Kirishima simply nodded, taking the opportunity to try and hide his face. He got up and quickly set up his computer, handing the other controller to (Y/n). And then he realised she had found one of his sweaters and was curled up in it atop the massive bean bag.

Her hands were lost inside the sleeves, and the hood fell past her eyes. He let out a sputter, quickly covering his mouth and turning around. How could she be so cute?

His best friend just nonchalantly put on his sweater and cuddled into it? Did that mean she was indirectly cuddling him? Did she want to cuddle him? Did she think about him like that? Did she return his feelings?

“Hey, c’mon! I wanna play video games!” She whined. She found her hands and made a childish grabby motion, reaching for the controller. Kirishima smiled, handing the controller to her before seating himself of the beanbag beside her, fighting back the fluster that plagued him.

 Kirishima didn’t know what to do about his feelings, but he knew he’d definitely be leaving his sweaters out more often.

20:18

It’s coming up to half eight, when Penelope wanders downstairs. The house - quiet, a distant hum of the record she had left spinning upstairs, and a static of voices drifting from the lounge, Matty and the telly.

Kitchen - dimly lit, much like the rest of the rooms. Dark outside - although it was the beginning of March, spring - the weather told a different story. Weather warnings of snow storms, plummeting temperatures had littered the news. The snow was beginning to take its toll, weighting outside from what Penelope can figure, see - face pressed to glass, window. A shiver - instinct, turning back on the heating and switching on the kettle, picking at dried paint on her thigh.

Lounge - finding Matty sprawled on the couch, laptop balanced on his stomach, seemingly engrossed. Queer Eye. Setting his tea down on the coffee table.

Fingers - ruffling through bleach blonde as she passes, he glances up lazily - a muffled ‘thanks, love’ through a yawn, stretching but not making any attempt to reach for the tea, legs over her lap when she sits at the opposite end of the sofa. She eyes him - doubtfully, while he giggles at something that’s just been said. Earlier in the evening he had told her he was going to work on some stuff, album stuff - after spending the afternoon spread across the bed with Allen doing much of the same as he was now. She thinks now it was just a ploy, an excuse to be alone, an escape from her constant fidgeting.

Cabin fever was beginning to creep up on Penelope - earlier in the day, aimlessly wandering between her studio and art corner of the bedroom. Angsty and tiresome, restless. Mood - mirroring the weather.

Like Matty she had intended to get some work done - illustration, instead ending up on the bedroom floor, sketching and half finishing a canvas portrait of Allen, who spent most of the day curled up on the bed, an equally sulky state. It wasn’t the day for trying to work, built on procrastination and dense atmosphere, and Penelope was getting increasingly exasperated with how little attention Matty was giving her. Alone time was over - as far as she was concerned, but his gaze still didn’t shift from his laptop, no matter how long she stared.

Until finally - albeit there was a pause, the next episode loading, dark hazel meeting indigo; “What’re you looking at?”

Penelope - taking that as a cue, cold cups of tea, closing his Mac and shifting it off him, despite halfhearted protests of ‘oi’, and ‘’m watching sommat’.

“For someone who’s about to announce to the world how much they hate technology - you’ve been using it a fair deal to fucking ignore me all day.”

Vexatious complaints - maneuvering, thighs either side of his ribs, stomach.

“Sorry darling, what was that?” A lopsided smirk, glancing up at her while thumbs moved haphazardly over his phone screen. She didn’t need to ask - knowing it was George, stranded somewhere in Ireland with Kelsey. Snow.

Fingers - plucking the phone from him, tossing it across the room, the other couch. Matty raises brows in a silent questioning - before he can say anything, she collapses into him, face burrowing into his neck. A whine, scratchy sound resembling his name.

Something he chortles at, resounding her name, an amused tone, fingers - trailing down her spine. Comforting - content with his touch, smell, until he begins to speak again, after having time to mull over what she had said.

“And actually I don’t hate technology, you’re missing the point - it’s about how subversive-”

Penelope - a groan, shushing him, nipping at his neck. She had heard this speech, rant - over and over and over again, the past few months. She could recite it back to him, or some variation - his spiel on it was ever changing. Mumbling - key words, concepts from ‘Kanye’ to ‘Black Mirror’ to ‘Obsolescence’, between kisses, his neck.  

She continues until he interrupts, complaining about being too warm, asking if she had turned the heating back on, she meets his complaints with her own - cold. Something he scoffs at. 

“Because you have no fucking clothes on.”

Warm hands, bare skin - her thighs, highlighting his point. Only one of his Gucci tshirts, underwear. Comments that transpire into a minor argument over the heating, and heating bills, and overheating, and Allen’s dislike of the sounds the boiler and radiators made, and how it makes Matty’s nose all stuffy. Domestic. The kind of domestic that would make George utterly repulsed if he was present. 

Until it’s giggles, and kisses. Kisses that grow quite heated, quite fast, after she tries to sit back up, lips chasing. Hands wandering - her thighs, hips, under her tshirt. All hot breaths, soft sounds, and suppressed smirks - between mouths. A heavy scent of sandalwood, from earlier candles. Frost tinting window panes. 

Slow - but still with a hint of urgency. His jeans - pushed down just far enough, her, or his, tshirt ends up on the floor, following a bit of a struggle his jumper joins it. Swollen lips - pressing kisses, her lips, jaw. Fingers - pushing aside, underwear, rather than struggling to take them off, cramped space and bad coordination, something that would most likely end with him knocking her onto the floor, and killing the mood. 

Muted gasps - when fingertips brush against sensitive skin, echoing sounds from Matty - when her fingers wrap around him. Air thicker, heat rising - blood rushing, messy tongues and soft sounds. Penelope - hips gyrating, in search of more friction, a mewl resembling his name tumbling from her lips, fingers dipping into her. Thighs - trembling against him, nails grazing skin.

Impatience - rising after a few minutes, a lazy kind of rhythm between them both, his fingers, her hand. Slow and tormenting - setting off sparks, fueling the heat, radiating. Fingers - tugging at his wrist, hazel focusing on blown out pupils as she leans back down, lips hot against his, telling him that she wants to feel him, while nails graze across ink, tattoos.

Instead of attempting to change positions, cramped and partially because of his own impatience, heat spiraling through his veins - fingers grip her hips, guiding her on to him. Perfect angle - to watch her face, reaction as he fills her. How her lips part with scattered expletives, brow furrowing, fingers imprinting against his ribs. Naturally - taking a few minutes to gain some sort of rhythm, momentum. Not something he minded - relishing in the feeling of her, the soft sounds that surpassed her lips. A mutual desire, rippling through bodies. 

Later - much later, bedroom. Penelope finding Matty once again on his phone, giggling to himself, when she returns from the bathroom, pajamas and brushed teeth. The living room escapade had transpired, traveled to the bedroom - between cool sheets, when hands and mouths grew peripatetic once more.

Horizontal - head on Matty’s stomach, fingers playing with her hair, twirling curls. Announcing - out of seemingly nowhere that George and Kelsey are going to be the first to have a kid. Indigo - glancing up, an amused smirk, asking him what made him think that. 

He shrugs, tossing him phone down - “was reading some article, said there’s gonna be an influx in babies born in December ‘cause of the snow, people have nowt else to do but shag apparently. So what’s the bet that we’ll have a cute, but very odd new little drummer by next year?”

Penelope only scoffed at his logic, shaking her head. 

“Fine be like that, Ross will bet me.” - picking back up his phone, eyes lighting up with immature excitement. Penelope - burrowing her way under the duvet, “they’re staying with her parents, I doubt they’re spending their weekend trapped in the house shagging.” 

“Never stopped us did it, darlin’?” 

She didn’t have to look at him to know that that stupid sly grin was tilting his lips, turning off the light, but letting out a low chuckle all the same. 

“Oh my God, go to sleep - Matty.” 

It’s quiet for a while,once Matty had finished sending Ross his preposition for the bet, much like earlier in the night. Only sounds of wind outside, and the sparse creeks of the house. Penelope - drifting in and out of sleep, until Matty’s voice, a whisper - her ear, clearly in deep thought over the matter. 

“Babe, what colour do you think I should dye my hair next?”

[scoundrels-in-love]

For the Aesthetic Ask: pantone, cactus, combat boots and beaches.

I am finally getting to these because I’m procrastinating on other things, ahaha. Sorry for taking my sweet time! @bienchanter (Cause sometimes when it’s been a long time, replied asks don’t show up... Not that mention system is flawless.)

Pantone: describe a person close to your life in detail.

Hmm, I actually went ahead and left this question for the last because not only I can’t pick who to describe, but I also feel like this will go in the deep end and be emotional.

But there is someone, that I have known for 3 years now, but it genuinely feels so much longer? We have had so much good times together, but she’s also seen me at my worst and hasn’t exited the room yet which is saying something. She’s so creative, funny and also salty, so goddamn talented at anything she touches - and also hardworking, even though she’s a procrastinator like rest of us. I feel like I have not been able to be half the friend and support she’s been to me, though sometimes she drives me absolutely bonkers, but it’s something I accept. To point it’s part amusement to me. She’s truly cute as heck, you guys. Tiny salty spitfire of criticism and creativity.

I wish her life had been kinder to her and really pray it will be kinder to her in future and that while she might feel a little lost and hopeless at times, there will be time (and may it be soon) when there’s calmness in her life, like the sort where you sigh and feel, yeah, I am at good place right now, where I do the things I enjoy, both work and hobby and personal life wise. 

She’s taught me so much about who am I as person, about writing and just friendship. We have had nights where at least I laughed till I cried and things that still make me grin when I think of them and going down any sort of ‘let’s look through old messages’ is just a GODDAMN TREASURE TROVE.

These days, I’m just so afraid she’ll slip away slowly but surely (that the process has already begun), losing interest in things we share and I will be left with huge, huge hole in my heart. And I don’t know what are the chances of her reading this, but there are some, and it makes this awkward, but at the same time, it’s not anything I’ve not told to her before? I love her, with all my platonic, ace ass and stupid heart.

Cactus: what is your opinion on brown eyes?

If honestly, I am not one for eye contact, but that does not mean I cannot appreciate beautiful eyes. And I think all eyes are beautiful, if the person with them is not a cruel, monstrous person. But like, on highly superficial level? Brown eyes are gorgeous. All shades, from the hazel-y brown-blue to honey or amber ones and, no, I am not excluding all the dark shades. The oak brown ones or the ones that are so dark that they’re nearly black or the pupil’s not distinguishable at all, except in maybe certain angle and light? Wow, man. Just wow. So many shades and light plays possible for brown eyes, they’re truly amazing.

Combat boots: are you a very forgiving person? do you like being this way? 

This is very tough question, something I am failing to come up to answer entirely honestly. Because I’m just not entirely sure. I think I am 50/50. More of a forgive, but not forget type. It depends what’s been done, though. There’s few people in my life, that hurt me so deeply I don’t think I ever really forgave them, but, for example, with one of them I still felt like it was my fault and even sought to contact them, getting burned again and again, till I got a calmer parting and came to terms something. I don’t hate them, I don’t think I do, but I definitely don’t feel like I have forgiven and definitely not forgotten. These are people that severely fucked up my life or my mental state, in ways that affect me to this day, though. For frame of comparison.

Little things, stepping over lines or hurting me, I don’t exactly keep in memory like a grudge and forgive easily, understanding we all have our bad moods or there’s just miscommunication, etc., but I still remember and can be more wary, especially in ways to avoid having that reaction/thing that created argument. Overall, I do brush things aside most of the time or squint/ignore them, to point I don’t speak up for myself when I should and it ends up in nasty outbursts eventually. I don’t really like this and I am working on emotional management as well as being more honest about things that upset me then and there so I can talk them out and Let Them Go. One thing I can’t really forgive, though, is lying. It’s based on the ‘hurt me for rest of my life’ thing I mentioned previously.

beaches: if you had to dye your hair how would you dye/style it and why? 

Man, this is interesting. I don’t love and at the same time like my hair color, especially when it bleaches out in Summer sun and my hair is such a frail mess, I am afraid dye job would Finish Them. But, I am definitely partial to soft, pastel hair end trend that’s big here right now and I then I would probably go for that bob style I’ve been dreaming of, but probably can’t maintain.

Something like this! (Bonus point for me being rather blonde, too, and loving soft pastel purple, so, this is good reference picture.)

So, just have a look at the FAQ about highlighting your wig hair at home.

HOW FREQUENTLY TIMES CAN I COLOR MY HAIR WIGS?

There's no set solution. They'd do that every 7-8 weeks with someone. You should even highlight your hair every 10-12 weeks. If you have the time and resources, you can do it more Unless your hair grows very fast, it seems to overkill monthly, particularly because blonde highlights normally hurt your hair. If the growth is not significant, you should do so every 3-4 months, because the highlights are very natural and not that radically different from your natural color. You'd do that every 6-8 weeks if you had darker hair.

HOW MUCH TIME I MIGHT NEED TO HIGHLIGHT MY HAIR EXTENSIONS?

Although it depends on the length of your hair, it depends on how much you get colored and how long your hair is. If you expect to have a 1/2 head and they generally advise you to give an hour when you book appointments, a full head takes longer. It also relies on how dark your natural color is and how bright the highlights you like. The darker the hair and the lighter the highlights, the longer the procedure will take. It would depend on how much focus you receive, how busy the salon is the person who does it. It would take me nearly three hours. Give them a call at the salon and ask them to know better.

HOW MUCH MONEY I HAVE TO INVEST IN HIGHLIGHTING MY HAIR WIGS?

When you apply multiple shades of color to your hair, prepare to pay rates ranging from $60 to more than $300. It also offers the impression of more volume, but for it, you would have to pay more.

Based on many variables, the cost of highlighting hair differs dramatically.

About our place

Because of the rivalry, locations that have a saturated number of salons appear to charge lower. In the other side, luxury towns might house well-known salons that charge comparatively higher prices.

In the Salon

In order to emphasize hair, most salons will charge you the national average rate. The success of the salon and the expertise of its stylists can influence the price, however.

The Form of Highlight

 Two basic types of highlights are available, respectively partial and absolute. The former clearly costs less than the latter.

Other models are available, such as the "ombre" that gives a gradient effect to your hair color.

Color of hair

If you are a blonde, you'd definitely spend extra. The designer says that it costs $20 more to dye natural blondes than to add highlights to brown hair.

Length of hair

If you have longer hair, you will also actually pay extra for the highlights, as your stylist would have to apply additional coloring to finish the look.

Hair straightening will start to feel dry and brittle, so it is important to use the right tools at home. Still add vegetable oil to your hair. Using a low-detergent shampoo is also a good option. Just when you use your skin every day with a moisturizer, you shouldn't forget your scalp. Try stopping items for styling. Stop having your hair wig cleaned too much. Do not only use a comb or a hairbrush to unwrap your hair. Don't do the highlights very much.

5 Useful Tips

Take out Time to do touch-ups.

A big advantage to making your own highlights is that any time your roots start to appear, you don't have to run to the salon. Even so out of nowhere, noticeable roots can appear to surprise you. Pick up a second box of your own at-home highlighting set, instead of waiting for the last possible minute (we're all guilty of this sometimes!), and keep it on hand. That way, without a ride to the shop, you can solve your root cause. 

Stay away from heat:

 Although we're suckers for voluminous waves and super smooth, straight locks, giving the hair a break from heated styling is often well-advised. Instead of searching for your hot instruments every day from time to time, grab a heat-free hair styling tool. Choose from one of the following choices and style it out!

Hold brass at bay

There can come a point where the highlights have an orange hue. Once a week when you find that your strands are becoming brassy. The pair together neutralizes undesirable shades of orange and black.

Purchasing a premium dye for hair

Top hairstylists recommend that quality hair color should only be used to illuminate hair. Before buying, check that it is a professional hair care line product and that the pack is not tampered with. You should buy the product after running these tests to highlight your hair at home. Pick a highlight that is at least 2 shades lighter than your skin tone. It will highlight your hair and contrast with your skin tone as well.

Do a strand search.

A strand test helps you determine the exact processing time needed before starting the whole process to achieve the degree of lightness you want on a piece of your hair," Next a small quantity of highlights will be added to a small part of the hair. Wipe your hair clean after ten minutes and see if your perfect amount of lightness has been met.

See, how easy it is to highlight your hair wigs at home that too likes a pro. With these simple steps highlighting will be no issues for a beginner also as all the dilemmas in your mind hopefully get cleared. So, go ahead and present yourself with a new look that too without much effort. For any help you can always find our experts online at our website.

Life Story - Part 32

Johnny Cash died. It was all over the everything. I hadn't truly appreciated him while he was alive. I  had always associated him with my dad's dislike for him, and for old smokey saloons that young girls don't go to (well, probably shouldn't). I had really been challenged by his version of 'Hurt' by Nine Inch Nails. I guess I felt it was strange because it was harder for me to understand back then that an adult could still be cool and relevant in the way that the media had shown him to be. I didn't believe adults could still be cool after thirty. Which is partially why I liked Kurt Cobain so much. He had died before he ever got the opportunity to become not-cool. And back then, in my mind, there was nothing worse than not-cool. He had given himself up to the cause of never becoming an older person. And to my credit, I didn't know many older people who I considered to be cool in any way.

My mom had also come back into my life. She was living with her old friend, the one we used to live with Germaine's ex-boyfriend, Dave (not my dad Dave), just temporarily. There was nothing going on between the two of them as it might seem like there was. She had just been looking for a place to stay, and had mentioned it at the bar. A number of people probably piped up in hopes of catching the now single Sandra. She had just broken up with Sarah's dad. And Dave had said that we were allowed to visit for the weekend so long as we were polite. He was going hunting for that weekend and we wouldn't even be seeing him.

I knew exactly what I was going to do, now that I had an adult who was willing and able. I wanted an eyebrow piercing and I wanted to dye my hair an unnatural color. Finally, my mother had valid use. She could cancel out my father's republican conservative values.  At my mother's job as a sorter at the Good Will, she had acquired a small jar of Punky's green hair dye that could not be sold, and she had taken it home with her, never knowing who might want it. I had never seen colored hair dye in the store before, and this was prosperous news for me. She told me she would help me dye my hair green when  I came over that weekend. And the next weekend, she agreed to go take me to get my eyebrow pierced in a shop. My friends at the lunch table, as I discussed my plans, all asked if I was worried my father would see my piercing. I had a feeling I could hide it with my hair. I had started to notice that summer that my dad didn't look me in the face anymore, not just when he spoke, but never. He never ever looked me in the eyes. So, maybe I could hide it. The hair, I wasn't sure about, but if I wore a hood over my head each morning, I figured I might have a chance of keeping it secret, at least for awhile. Beyond that, I couldn't worry about a distant future that may not exist.

She dyed my hair one weekend while the television talked about Johnny Cash. I wondered if my grandpa Roy was happy that his hero had died not too long after he did. Maybe they could play a song together in heaven/hell or wherever. I didn't know much about bleaching, so we didn't' do that first. So the hair turned out being a dark forest green. Which I was happy with. There wouldn't have been too many colors I would have been too unhappy with honestly. The next weekend, I couldn't stay with my mom though because Dave (not my dad Dave) had made the moves on her and she had to find another place to stay. She didn't want to make things awkward I guess. So in the meantime, there was no place she could keep us.

She had started dating a guy named Danny. I had remembered Danny over the years. He had at one time been a good friend of James's. He was always in this distantly good mood. He was full of bad jokes. Something was empty about him, and shallow, but he was friendly enough. She was staying at his place, and didn't have a place for me, Allison or David to stay yet, so I stayed with Roxanne that weekend. At some point, the plan was that my mom would come and pick me up to get my piercing, but I would have to stay in Roxanne's gross little trailer for the weekend in order for that to happen. It was not a prospect I looked forward to at all. But it was worth it to me, to live out one unpleasant weekend. I had managed before.

The trailer seemed to be rotting away. There was garbage piled up everywhere. The dishes hadn't been done in weeks – possibly a few months. And Roxanne hid with her baby Hayley, and eldest daughter Sagen in the backroom. The boys trashed the front of the trailer and would become sort of violent if you went out there. Jeremy and her were together by this point, but he had got caught for one of his charges, and had to do some time in jail – this ended up being the case a lot for him. He was already lashing out at her for no good reason when she sent letters or tried to visit even then. I found some of the things he said to her amazingly cruel. She was completely obsessed with him. I sat and listened to her talk about him in her small bedroom, which was mostly bed. The place felt wrong and upsetting in the air. And all the kids kept talking about a dark man they kept seeing in the corner of their eye. Roxanne said she say someone sometimes, but then they would be gone. I can't trust the eyewitness of children, and I can't trust someone when their brains are on drugs. Plus, I don't believe in demons, or anything like that. But if there was ever a place that I could say that I felt demonic presence, it was that trailer. There seemed to be something in the air that made me feel sick. Roxanne would do drugs, sleep, contact Jeremy whenever she could and that was it. None of her old friends from the days when she had money came to visit anymore, and she was stuck with the addiction.

Jeremy had arranged everything in his room in such a way to where everything was pointing in a certain direction. As a drug dealer, I guess one has to worry about people touching their stuff. So if anything was moved, even slightly, he would know. Roxanne was paranoid that I would move something. And then Jeremy would find out and accuse her of cheating on him.

She was looking at porn magazines, and getting depressed that her vagina didn't look like they did in the magazines. I looked at the women and realized that there was something a little different about a lot of the women, and Roxanne explained to me that most of these women had a certain kind of surgery to make their bodies look like that. She was wishing she had spent some money back when she had it to get a surgery to make it look different back when she had the money, which amazingly had been less than a year ago. In less than a year she had spent nearly 100,000. And now she was here. It was all very strange.

They had a pet kitten in the beginning, but one of her boys had sat in the sofa chair and rocked it and flattened the poor baby cat under the weight of the furniture. They thought that perhaps the kitten had disappeared through the door when no one was looking, and gave up hope on ever finding it. They had notice something had started to smell though, more than normal, and eventually the pulled back the chair and there was the poor dead kitten squashed and moldy.  At night, some of Jeremy's friends would come to the house to make sure Roxanne wasn't sleeping with anyone else. I thought that was kind of strange and intrusive. Why be with someone if you think that they will cheat the first opportunity that opens up to them? Roxanne started drinking on that particular Saturday night, and she insisted that I take a shot. I didn't want to. But then I just decided to go ahead and have one to appease her need to defile my purity in some way. I thought it tasted horrific. It burned in my stomach. Roxanne smiled devilishly, proud to have gotten me to sin. I got a little tipsy. She tried to get me to drink more, but I didn't want to. Then more people arrived. This horrible cartoon with Eminem as the main cartoon character was on the television. I started feeling like maybe I didn't like Eminem that much anymore.

And then she put on this horrible live dvd performance by ICP. It blasted loudly throughout the living room, and when it was over, it just started all over again. It was so gross. I felt sick to my stomach. It was probably one of the most unpleasant things I had ever heard. And I had to sleep in that same living room, on a gross soiled couch, ICP live blasting repeatedly. It was very hot in their trailer too, and the smells were fowl. I can honestly say, it was one of the most unpleasant nights of sleep I have ever had. Roxanne was obsessed with ICP. She just thought they were the absolute best. It was more than just being a fan almost. It was some way of life. She wanted to go to their festival. I thought their music was repulsive and cartoonish.

When finally my mother came to get me my piercing, it was a very brief visit. Late to go find Danny at the bar and who had already cheated on her once to teach her some kind of lesson, who was all that she could really think of, she wanted to get this done in a hurry to get back to him, and she was a bit aggravated, though she had been the one to agree to this. There was a shop at the end of town that did that kind of thing, tattooing, piercings, bongs and beaded 420 relate items. I think in the back they had a dildo collection of some kind. Anyway, the woman who performed the piercings took me into the back. She told me first and foremost that a girl like me had no business getting a piercing, and that I wouldn't be able to keep it clean. She told me it was a bad idea and I was not sure of what I was getting myself into. She was terribly moody. She also told me the pain would be unendurable for me at that young of age.

I went in to the next room, sat in the chair. She sanitized her needles. I will say that she did a pretty decent job at that. It was a clean operation she had going on, which she made us all very sure of. When the needle went into my eyebrow, I barely felt it. There was no pain to speak of. I asked if she had done it yet, and she stated that she had already done it. It seemed to annoy her that I hadn't felt it. She complained and said that my eyebrows were too fat. She seemed really annoyed at this and kept going on about how she never in her life had witnessed such thick eyebrow skin. Mixed with what the beautician had said about my eyelashes, I was getting this picture in my head that people must have thought very little of my optical area, at least from a professional standpoint. She was a rude person. I gave my mom the money I had saved from my birthday to pay for the piercing. I picked a ring to start off with, and I was given some cleaning stuff to keep the piercing clean while it healed. And I was good to go.

This new look naturally made the neighbors look at me cockeyed. And it was beyond hilarious, because it took nearly a month before my father noticed my hair was green. I got to the point where I just wasn't even bothering with the hood anymore, and he still did not take notice. When he eventually did, he had come back from Florida, and he seemed to have cooled down somewhat. I told him it would wash out in a few washes. I was nervous. But at that point, I had objectively looked into the mirror and I knew what I was up against. I had to fight back, not against him, or like him, but for the sake of my own autonomy. And to this day, in my own way I still have to find ways to fight back. I look myself in the mirror and ask myself if the beating is worth some stray from conformity that may or may not go unpunished. You can't let society take everything from you. You have to fight back somewhat.

My father didn't notice my eyebrow piercing for three months. The day he finally noticed was sort of unexpected. He hadn't looked at my face in a very long time. He didn't say he loved me anymore. He was cold and indifferent towards me all the time now. I had grown accustomed to this new way of things. Ordinarily, I kept my long hair in front of my face just to hide my eyebrow, but as I was leaving for school that morning, I turned my head, and he somehow noticed a glint of metal. He was mad. He began yelling at me. He said I looked like a prostitute. He said I had ruined my face beyond repair. I told him that I had pock marks on my cheeks that were more prominent than the mark by my brows, but he hadn't taken me to the doctor. He seemed confused and upset. The whole thing ended with me rapidly getting my backpack to get to school as soon as possible. He was shouting at me, calling me a slut and then randomly calling me 'Mandy'. Which, it took me awhile to even remember who that was, so I couldn't help but to look at him as though he was crazy. Mandy had been Jodi's daughter who she rarely saw, who lived with her father. I guess she had had a tongue piercing or something. I didn't think this was all that offensive. Mandy had never done anything horrible as far as I knew, and certainly not to my father. Using her as some example of tramphood seemed a little over the top. As I left the house, I could hear him yelling out that I was a prostitute from outside the house. Everyone up the street could hear it as I walked on past. I was getting used to this, though it still scared me. I knew that Zack was waiting for me, and my friends were waiting for me at school, and that was what really mattered.

I came home one day after art club. Nobody was home. I opened the door to my bedroom, and my entire room was ripped apart. There was a big wheeled garbage can in the center of my bedroom that you generally see in the fronts of lawns. I stood there in shock. Everything that I had managed to collect since my mom had gotten rid of all my stuff when I was younger was thrown in it, or all over the floor. It took a moment to even comprehend the mess. He had ripped up my posters. Glass was all over the floor, from where he had tossed my glass unicorns that had been a lot of money that I had gotten for Christmas. Something inside my chest twisted. I made some kind of noise, but I couldn't cry. I felt like someone had punched me. It stood there for a long time, and then I just sort of fell onto the ground and began trying to pick up the pieces, though it all seemed futile to me now. I had worked so hard to have things again. And this was what came of that.

My room hadn't even been that messy. Most of these things had been on shelves anyway. Books were ripped, my drawers had all been ripped out, and the clothing was everywhere. The mess I might have had was all clothing and papers, but I had corralled them into their own area so they didn't prevent traffic going into the laundry room. There was no precedence for this, other than to be mean and to demonstrate retaliation against me for who I was. This wasn't an act of helping me keep a clean room, or even showing me how it was done. This was a further way for him to breaking my spirits. His way of saying I didn't have the right to own things. That nothing I owned was even mine. He had become so obsessed with me being on drugs that he had torn everything apart looking for something – that much was clear. And of course he didn't find anything, because I wasn't on drugs. I imagined this must have made him angry. I eventually just laid down in the mess the clothing and broken glass all around me. I don't know how long I laid like that.

What my father had found was my diary. I noticed it was missing from under my mattress. I found it in his bedroom, and I took it back immediately, though I knew the damage was already done. I was not allowed to talk to boys, and I had confessed to being friends with two of them in the diary. Two terrible boys who did drugs no less. I knew I was in for it. I had written about Zack and how I felt about him. I hadn't gotten into it too deeply. I had neglected keeping up in the diary as of recent. I didn't talk about anything specific, which may have done me some favors. I had mostly written about Jason. And I talked about how my views on drugs were different, and I felt like parents and teachers had lied to me and never encouraged me to question the value of what they said. I had written a series of rhetorical questions concerning if drug addicts were people. Questions that I had been asking myself. Why did I think drugs were bad? But I never had any answer. These were just the questions that had run to my thoughts. To of course be interpreted however my father would see fit.

When my father got home, he pretty much told me that I had gotten what I deserved, and he told me to continue to pack up the garbage can. I wouldn't be seeing this stuff for awhile. I took all the broken stuff out of the bottom that he had just thrown in, and I threw it away. I at least wanted to pack it neatly, the remaining unbroken items, so at the very least, they would not break. But otherwise, I did as I was told. I packed up my stuff. I wasn't allowed to have it back until I got my grades up. I didn't foresee a time when my grades would come back up though, even if I had immediately started trying again. Math was another language to me at this point. I had no idea what people were saying. I drifted through my classes, and I had no idea what was going on at all. There was no way I was going to catch up now. So as I packed, I fully anticipated that all of these items of mine would be the last time I would ever see them. He also was permanently taking away my music, or at least until the end of the year. I packed up my cd collection as well, and my music player. All of it would be out in the back of the shed outside. My room was just a bed and empty furniture now. He let me keep my Kurt Cobain poster, but that was all. And I was back to zero, once again.

And naturally, I got suspended soon after for running from the principal and skipping all those detentions. I was not too upset. I knew this was coming. For some reason they gave me three days of out of school suspension – a poor punishment by just about anyone's standards. This didn't really bother me at all. It was a blatant vacation. Not going to school wasn't so bad. I got to sleep in, and relax. My dad was even annoyed at this. He told me he was going to make me do chores, but that never really happened either. I slept in, and I drew. I still had my notebooks and pencils for school, and there was no way anyone was going to take that from me. But mostly I just looked up at the ceiling and thought about Zack, overcome with feelings that nobody could take away from me.

I just didn't eat that much anymore. I didn't feel hungry. Food didn't compare to what I was feeling. I was dropping weight, and I was also always sucking in my gut. The adrenaline of being in love was such that I could barely eat food at all, even if I had wanted to. The swirl of dopamine, adrenaline, seratonin and all that mixed with the feelings of anxiety and dread  was a concoction that left little room for an appetite to flourish. I began to skip lunch altogether. Why waste time? Instead, I would wait outside for Zack, who would usually come and find me as well.  After school, I would walk home, and I would stay at Sarah's for an hour before I continued on to my house. My father has never been one to look at the clock, and in short intervals, I knew I could go to her house without him noticing.

The air was becoming more brisk outside. On days when my father was home, I was to go immediately to my bedroom, and shut the door. This was what the plan was for me, this was my punishment. He didn't want the cool air from my bedroom – which led to the laundry room which led to the outside, into the rest of the house, so I was told to shut the door. This left me with a cold draft that only got colder as the days went on. And the sun was going down sooner and sooner. I would not have had the lighting to do homework even if I had wanted to. The light bulb was out. Ordinarily, I could have put a light bulb in myself using a chair, but the walls were fourteen feet high. I was not able to get up there to put in a light bulb even if I had the money to. And when the sun went down, I was to sit in the dark blackness and the cold until eventually I would get drowsy and fall asleep. There was no light other than the light that leaked from under the door. It was surreal, and it's hard to explain how my mind spun and shifted in the darkness.

The rest of my family would carry on. I could hear them out there murmuring and laughing. Allison would bring me my dinner. But I wasn't really one of them. I could not go and eat out with the family. I was not meant to be apart of that anymore. I couldn't listen to music either. I just listened to songs in my head sometimes. Eventually, during the end of this period, I had gotten a small tape player, and Samantha had recorded a Ramones album, Blink 182's new 2003 album and a Metallica album that I didn't really like, but had a song called Hero of the Day that I would listen to on repeat. I would do this quietly so my father could not hear it. But most of the time, I would lay there, and eventually feel disembodied in the dark. And I would think about Zack. In the dark room, the contrast with the feelings I had, the strong senses I was feeling contrasted. I was obessed, but it was so much different than it had been with Kyle. This was a love that wasn't desperate. It was not made up. I had fallen into something so beyond real that I almost needed to meditate in dark silence simply to comprehend it fully.

I had gotten this cold on the third week of school. Because I didn't stop going to football games to stay out in the cold, and because of the low temperature of my room, it never got better and formed into walking pneumonia. My throat hurt constantly. It was worse at night. It would sting and burn and at best by midday it would reduce to a tingly feeling. My voice was disappearing sometimes, and had developed this light scratch that never really went away. I was sick for five months.

On weekends, when I was babysitting Allison and David, I didn't want to be mean to them anymore either. Why did I want to hurt them ever anyway? Something about being in love made me grow as a person. That love sort of radiated off of my love for him, and onto everything else I knew. When someone was in pain, I felt more empathetic to it. I probably had every reason to be at my angriest during these times looking at my limited situation, but I felt more empathy for both of them than I ever had in my entire life. My eyes were open. And I cared about everyone. This isn't to say that I didn't snap here and again, but I would give them money when I had it for them to get themselves snacks at the store – and I never would have considered doing this back when.

They looked at me with gleaming appreciation and disbelief. The stuttered their thank you's as if I had just saved their lives. I had been mean to them for so long that this newfound kindness was taken with an over abundance of appreciation. I wish I had had some explanation for what had gone over me before, but there was nothing I could say. I was just a different person now. I was sorry about the times I had been mean to them, and it was all I could do to make up for it. I had found new patience. I had been a violent dictator. And without having strong words to understand it, I had let go of that part of me that held onto, or even wanted that kind of power, and was now willing to try democracy with the two of them, at least incorporate a structure of fairness between us three. The reason that I had ever needed that kind of control was a sign of a sickness placed on me by the powers that had always been around me growing up. That was all gone now, and being in love caused that sick rage to go away. I was for the first time since I was a very small child, thinking somewhat clearly. With that clarity, came a sort serenity in the way I saw the world.

Zack began telling me he loved me all the time. At first it had just been here or there. Perhaps he was teasing me. But we were friends now, and that seemed strange. For three weeks straight, he told me he loved me everyday. Strangely, he just would say it to me over and over. I was still keeping up with pretending that it wasn't getting to me, but with each time he told me, some wall I had built would crumble away. One day, he said it to me over 100 times. He would find me if I was in the library. And he would tell me he loved me between the books in the book shelves.

Sacrifice for his spoiled prince- Klance Week Day 2

I know this isn’t the best idea of sacrifice but I didn’t want to do something angsty. Sacrifice

Keith knew he should be helping his boyfriend with picking out a hair colour, but he was distracted by Lance’s belly piercing. He recently got a new ring, a dangling paw, and the urge to nibble around it was growing but he couldn’t do that here in the store.

“What about this colour?” Keith snapped out of his daze and looked over to Lance, who was standing on a stool he stole from one of the isle to get to the more pastel hair colours. Lance had the wild idea to get his hair dyed a pastel blue or light blue, but didn’t have the money to make a proper appointment at the hair salon, cause college was a thing. So they were getting the supplies to do it at home, which was going to take a while since Lance was going to have to wait a few days after bleaching his hair in order to protect his hair as much as possible.

The colour Lance was holding was a slivery blue. Keith tilted his head, trying to imagine the colour on Lance. He had seen Lance with white hair when he wore a wig on Halloween and he looked pretty good so Keith nodded, sure this colour would be good.

“Sweet. Help me down?”

Keith rolled his eyes, but put the shopping basket down and held his arms open, so Lance could fall into them safely. “You’re such a spoiled prince.” Keith said teasingly

“But I’m your spoiled prince.” Lance said, pressing a kiss to Keith’s cheek before he put him down. He dropped the box in the basket and picked it up himself. “I think we’ve got everything. Allura’s helping me so she has the treatment shampoos and stuff.”

“Check out then?” with Lance nod, Keith lead them to the empty front area and went to the first cashier. While the cashier had a friendly smile, Keith could see the questioning look in her eyes. He knew the two of them were quite a sight to see. Keith was Goth, so he had the streaked red hair, the black clothes and fishnet, the chockers, black Doc Martins, the piercings – though, not as much as Lance had. Lance was pastel, down to the brightly coloured clothes and flower crown, but he had way more piercing that Keith. Most of his left ear, the one on his right, his belly button, the ones on his hips and one of Keith’s favourites was his tongue piercing. Keith just had the one on his right ear and his eyebrow. They made an interesting pair, making people stop and stare, even more when they realised they were dating. But Keith could care less. He loved Lance and Lance loved him, that’s all that mattered.

(And they had the approval of friends and parents, always a plus)

“Your going to have to use a lot of towels aren’t you?” Keith asked, as they walked to his motorcycle.

“Well, one around my shoulders when the dye is going in and another to towel my hair when it’s all done. We have enough towels that we can sacrifice right?”

“I think so.” Going through his mental catalogue of their bin of towels and such, there were one or two he knew they wouldn’t miss, but they were white towels. But he was sure it would be worth it.

“Keith, do we have an extra towel?” Lance called from the bathroom. Keith had been partially right in thinking they had enough towels, they had one. The idea was to use his newly had pay check to get one or two more but cheque hadn’t deposited yet into his account.

“Uhh, one sec!”

“Please hurry, my hair still smells like vinegar and I’d like to get it off as much as possible.”

Keith pulled out the towel bin from under their bed and pulled out a red towel. Not one they could spare but Keith wasn’t going to make Lance use the towel from yesterday, it had been stained a greyish blue from the dye. If he had to sacrifice one of his towel, that was fine.

“Alright, ready to see?” Lance called from behind the closed bathroom door.

“As long as it’s not the really bad blonde, I’m more than ready.”

The door swung open and Lance stepped outside, hands out spread. “Ta da!”

It looked good, really good. He had heard Allura tell Lance to not use any sort of heat treatment so Lance’s hair was still its natural curly.

“Keith, stop.” Lance whined as Keith started to ruffle Lance’s now curly silvery blue. It was still as soft as usually. He’d think Lance would hate what he was doing if it weren’t for him pushing his head closer like he was a cat.

“Do you like it?” Lance asked

“Have I told you you look good today?” Keith asked,

“Yes, but feel free to do it again.” Lance answered looking cheeky

“You look amazing, my spoiled little prince.”

“And I’m all yours.”

40 Eye-Catching Blonde Highlights For Brown Hair (Bronde Hairstyles)

Anjali Sayee January 17, 2019

It’s a tale of old rivals: brunettes versus blondes.

But, over time, we’ve realized that they work better together than as rivals. Have you heard of the bronde hair trend that has been trending recently? It’s a beautiful combination of blonde and brown hair. It is usually comprised of blonde highlights on brown hair.

If you’re a brunette, going blonde would involve bleaching your hair. Therefore, bronde hair also works brilliantly as a transition style.

If you’re considering getting blonde highlights on your brown hair, check out the next section for some tips.

Tips For Getting Blonde Highlights For Brunettes

If you have cool-toned hair, pick a cool-toned blonde shade for your highlights.

Warm blonde highlights are perfecting for creating that sun-kissed hair look.

If you want to add depth to your hair color, opt for intense blonde shades over bright ones.

Lighter shades of blonde – like golden, honey, and strawberry – add more gloss to your hair.

You can play around with the style of highlights you want. You can get streaks or opt for a balayage. Do you want full or partial highlights? What about an ombre or a sombre? The list goes on. Talk to your hairstylist to know all your options before you make the bronde leap.

Consider how much of a change you really want. Do you want to go drastic, edgy, or just playful?

Take the season into account. Some colors look brilliant in autumn but don’t look as stellar in spring. This is because the colors in each season change. You see more earthy colors on display in autumn as opposed to the bright colors in summer, and so on.

Take care of your hair because you will have to bleach it to go blonde. Deep condition it once every two weeks to prevent it from getting dehydrated. Stay away from heat styling tools for at least two weeks after coloring it. This will go a long way in curbing the damage caused by bleaching.

Now that you know everything you need to look out for when going bronde, here are my top 40 picks of blonde highlights that look perfect on brown hair.

40 Eye-Grabbing Blonde Highlights For Brown Hair

1. Champagne Balayage

I’m sure you’ve seen gorgeous pictures of blonde highlights on Instagram. So, I’m sure you’ve come across balayage highlights that look beautifully blended and natural. If you have medium or dark brown hair, opt for a divine champagne shade of blonde for your balayage. If you have a cool undertone, add some white to the color mix. It’ll cool down the blend, and make it perfect for winter.

2. Blonde Streaks

Blonde streaks are achieved with the help of aluminum foils and a brush. Place the foil under the hair you want to streak before applying hair dye to it. Fold the foil to secure the section of hair and prevent the color from getting on other hair strands. This is the perfect hair look for someone who wants to spice up their hair without going too over the top. Opt for a natural warm blonde shade to keep things subtle.

3. Silver Blonde Highlights

You heard that right! Cool and warm tones blend to create this wonderful bronde blend. It looks especially stunning when paired with a brunette afro. The light tips frame your face and accentuate your jawline.

4. Face-Framing Blonde Highlights

Highlights are a great way to frame your face. When placed around near your face, blonde highlights soften your facial outline. They are especially great for covering up wide cheeks or a broad jawline.

5. Platinum Highlights

If edge is what you want, go for these platinum highlights on red tinted brown hair. The platinum highlights create a nice contrast with brown hair. This color combination will work well with cool undertones.

6. The Coffee Blend

Espresso, cappuccino, and coffee browns come together to create this stunning bronde color palette. The dark roots will make your face appear longer and slimmer. This bronde color blend will also make green, blue, and hazel eyes pop.

7. Golden Tips

This is one way to jazz up an afro. The golden tips are accentuated with some light ash streaks. If you have hazel eyes, the golden tips are sure to bring out the golden flecks in them. This hair color goes well with neutral-toned skin.

8. Partial Blonde Highlights

Partial highlights are highlights that are done only on the top layer of hair. This blend of platinum and champagne partial highlights goes well with walnut brown hair. These highlights add texture to your hair and make it look voluminous.

9. Golden Blonde Balayage

Gold is the color of the rich and famous! Doesn’t this gold balayage prove that? This blonde balayage adds a luxurious touch to brown hair. It adds depth to the hair, making it look thicker. The brown roots and blonde lower half can also frame your face beautifully.

10. Blonde Baby Highlights And Balayage

Adding blonde dimensional highlights can spice up your brown locks. They add texture and show off your natural hair color. The subtle winter blonde babylights add some oomph to the look.

11. Strawberry Blonde Highlights

Strawberry blonde is also called Venetian blonde. The women of Venice had darker hair and lusted after the blonde tresses of foreigners. It is said that hair dyeing started in Venice, and the outcome was the shade Venetian blonde. It is a ginger-blonde mix that has a reddish or pinkish hue. Pair these highlights with light brown highlights to add oodles of dimension and texture to your brown locks. Style your hair in waves to make the hairstyle look flowy.

12. Champagne And Venetian Twirls

Champagne is for celebration, and Venice is known for its extravagance and picturesque views. Take this celebration and extravagance to your hair with these stunning twirls of champagne and Venetian blonde highlights. You can achieve these perfect curls with the help of a curling iron.

13. Rose Ombré

Rose gold – the color that has enthralled every woman in the world. It had brunettes envious for months until rose brown came around. Why choose between the two when you can flaunt them both? Keep your roots rose brown that gradually fades into a light rose gold at the ends.

14. Titian Sombré

A sombre is a softer version of the ombre. Instead of a drastic brown and blonde contrast, highlight colors that are more suited to your natural hair color are used. Like this titian sombre in which titian hair is paired with strawberry highlights. In case you’re wondering, titian is the name given to reddish brown hair.

15. Bright Dark Blonde Highlights

Blonde is a very versatile color. They say that there is a blonde shade for everyone, and I couldn’t agree more. I mean, look at these stunning dark blonde highlights. Though they are dark, they are also bright. They go extremely well with medium brown hair with dark roots. These blonde highlights blend beautifully with chocolate brown locks and add texture to it, making it look voluminous and glossy.

16. Deep Venetian Highlights

When you have light brown hair, adding some Venetian blonde to it can give it a surreal twist. While dyeing your hair, add more dye to the roots and lessen it as you reach the ends to create a subtle balayage effect.

17. Intense Blend

Her hairstylist suggested some nice sun-kissed blonde highlights that would accentuate her natural hair color and make her brown eyes pop. So, if you want to spice up your plain brown ombre, go for these accentuating highlights.

23. Gradual Blonde

Transitioning to blonde is no joke, especially if you’ve been a brunette all your life. Instead of bleaching all your hair in one go, try transitional bronde balayage instead. It will help you figure out how blonde hair will look on you.
