ok, i need some sugestions on what product i should get. i just dyed my hair a darker brown then my usual blonde, but it needs some highlights.
i have thick straight hair, almost to my waist, so the cap kind is out (it just wont pull thru, too long, too thick). i've tried the brush in kind (that looks like a mascara wand) but you get like 6 highlights and its all at the root, by the time its to the ends there is no more color left in the brush
so i'll have to get 2 boxes no matter what, but i'm just trying to find out what people like best

i've been dying highlighting my hair for years, 15 to be exact, but i've never done it since my hair has gotten this long. i even do my mom's hair for her, as well as my bf's every now and again, so i dont need the attitude.

I was trying to pick a brand myself. I have dark brown hair and I want a toffee/caramel highlight color. I've never had color and I wanted some some tips, so I was searching the web, and then I saw a demo at the Loreal website. Try Loreal "Hi Light Styliste" the shade I settled on was toasted almond.

well either A. use the brush in kind and when the wand runs out of hair dye put more dye on the brush and continue to pull though, that's not even hard to figure out.
or B. use blonde hair dye, and brush it into your hair with a dye brush, then wrap the individual highlited pieces in foil.
you probably shouldn't even be highlighting your hair because you clearly dont know what you're doing and you're just going to mess it up and have ugly streaks and it won't look natural.

do not do it yourself as it is a disaster waiting to happen. it is hard to colour on colour especially if you are doing a lighter shade. in the best case scenario, it will not show up. worst case scenario, it will damage your long hair and give it a horrible colour. i have hair almost to my waist and it takes a lot to keep it healthy. the last thing you want is to damage the long hair.
as for technique, the only way to get it natural lookinbg is to foil highlight your hair or to have a professional do a paint brush technique with a special large brush. in order for your hair to look right, you really need to get it highlighted by a professional.

With that much hair, I would have a stylist do it so that you will get better results. I would do Honey highlights.
