Do you color or highlight your hair?

Spring is well underway and it seems like so many of us like to "brighten" our look after the long and dark winter! So, we were curious, just how many of us actually highlight our hair?

Whether you do it to cover grey, brighten up your own color or to completely change color, we were curious, do you color or highlight your hair? Why?

Yes- I usually do it myself with home hair color products (50.5%)

Yes- I usually go to a salon for a stylist to do (28.5%)

No- I do not color or highlight my hair (11.6%)

Not yet, but I'm thinking about it (9.3%)

    I've paid up to $200 at a salon when I was single, but now that I'm a wife & mother, it's much more cost effective to do it on my own. It may be a pain, but in the end it only costs an average of $10 & looks just as good!

    I GO TO A SALON EVERY 6 WEEKS. I AM VERY PARTICULAR ABOUT MY HAIR. I'VE TRIED TO DO IT B4 IN THE PAST, BUT COULDN'T GET THE RESULTS THAT I CAN FROM A PROFESSIONAL.

    I recently had my highlights out in my hair and they look great! My mother actually did for me at home with one of those kits for about $20. I can't touch it up now since I'm pregnant, but I plan to redo them as soon as the baby pops out.

    I go to a salon for my color needs: Highlights and Lowlights. I love the results. Although it is time consuming, I enjoy having time to myself...three kids 13, 8 and 4. It's nice to do something for myself. Wish it didn't cost so much but I do feel pampered when I go.

    I usually have my hilites done professionally about every 4-6 months and then i touch up the base in between every 6-8 weeks at home.

    I used to go to the salon, decided money was more important. Honestly, I'm just as happy doing it myself.

    I am a natural blonde, and I used to color my hair on my own. I've done every color you can think of! Unitl one time, a night before a job interview, when I went from a dark blonde/light brown to SILVER! I only used Feria products, but this one time it just went horribly wrong. Since then I never do it on my own. But I am lucky to have a really good firend who is a hair stylist, because the prices for getting your hair done are ridiculous!

    I usually do it myself. It's cheaper and I don't have to make an appointment! Plus the money I save, I can spend on something else!

    I color my own hair and I try to get the haircolor free after rebate. How can you beat free?
