After getting hair highlighted/colored, how many days should you wait 2 go swimming so it doesn't turn green?

My husband and I are taking a trip to the Bahamas to a Sandals resort for our 10 year wedding anniversary and I plan on staying at the pool as much as I can...I just highlighted my hair last night and am planning on adding some brown to it soom. We are leaving on the 16th of this month and I just want to know if anyone knows what the time frame is. I remember a friend of mine getting a perm and then going to camp and getting in the pool and her hair turning green. I DON'T WANT THAT HAPPENING TO ME!!!After getting hair highlighted/colored, how many days should you wait 2 go swimming so it doesn't turn green?
i highlight my hair on a regular basis and i also went to cosmotology school..and my hair has never turned green...and if it does cause i know some peoples do..there is shampoos you can buy at wal-mart or CVS, walgreen places like that where you wash your hair after you get out of the pool to wash the green out..it also has to do with the chemical that is used..how much amonia is in the color and all that...it's actually the copper in the water that turns the hair green and not the chlorine...if you do use ';chlorine removing'; shampoos on your hair...make sure you have a deep conditioner to use also as these shampoos can cause hair to be dry..it you can't find any of these shampoos lemon juice, vinegar, and crushed aspirin on wet hair will also take the green out.After getting hair highlighted/colored, how many days should you wait 2 go swimming so it doesn't turn green?
It would be wise to wait at least one week prior to swimming but also i would suggest you apply a color sealer to your hair the moring be fore you plan on swimming than pior to swimming put a small amount of condictioner in your hair

Im planning to highlight my hair soon. What color would look good on my hair?

My hair is pretty much black, in the light it looks like its brown or you see a little kinda dark blue in it. Im not sure why buts its like that. My eyes are dark brown, though my mom thinks its black. Far away it looks like I got black eyes but up close its actually dark brown. Any suggestions on colors? Please nothing that crazy xDIm planning to highlight my hair soon. What color would look good on my hair?
brown highlights AND brown low-lights would look good:)


my moms a hairdresser and she said both lowlights and highlights add dimension to hair..

What color should highlight my hair?

I have shoulder length, dark (nearly black) hair and i'm going to change that this weekend. I have ';virgin hair,'; if that makes any sort of difference... Anyway I'm considering dying my hair brown and getting cherry red highlight (would that show up?) I'm also thinking about light brown and copper/orange lighlights... Would any of these look good?

  • What highlight color would look good on dark black hair?

    Red or light-ish shade of brown would look good. It all depends on whether you have warm or cool features. (Warm=browns, reds, pinks. Cool=blues, whites, light yellows.)What highlight color would look good on dark black hair?
    red or burgandyWhat highlight color would look good on dark black hair?
    red or honey brown
    hey...i have black hair too and want highlights this summer. you should get dark brown so theres two tones, or some cool color like realllllly dark blue or red like burgundy.
    A caramel color, if you don't want it to stand out. Otherwise you can choose any color you want.
    a nice red shade would most likely best compliment black hair or a very light blonde would also look pretty
    Of course all depends on what effect you want, but I wouldn't recommend light blonds or anything drastic. On a really dark black hair I think that auburn o dark red look great, very sexy and lively. If you'd rather have a more natural look you could work with a combination of dark to medium brown highlights.
    A deep red thats a comliment in the sun and if u did wanna add something a lil more in ya face add some this blonde streaks.
    I would recommend something in the red shades

    What hair color/highlights should i get?

    Please help me! I have olive skin and dark brown eyes. My eyebrows are a blackish color and i currently have medium brown hair. What hair color should I get my hair dyed?? Please tell me either that or what color highlights i should get. (I can't get both because its wayyy to expensive. lol) Please help me! Thanks!





    oh and i also have long hair :) 10 points for best answer!What hair color/highlights should i get?
    personally i think natural hair is always better. by dyeing it youre literally poisining and ruining your hair. but if you really want to do a different color i would suggest doing a caramel or light brown color highlights because of the description you gave of yourself. olive skin looks gorgeous with those colors. make sure when you do get it higlighted that you get well conditioned and that the highlights are spread out and not all the same size. you want to keep the look natural because that looks best. dont do any fake colors theyre so outdated and way overdone. you dont want to to look like a drag queen. if you want to try out different colors try doing a nonpermanent highlight and see which color you like best then get that color done permanently. best of luck!What hair color/highlights should i get?
    I personaly don't think you should die your hair...





    most olive skin people have darker highlights


    i know highlights...dark???


    yeah... people are doing it...and it looks good!!!!!!





    its hard to die your hair a good color, that'll look good with your skin tone...





    GOOD LUCK!





    hope that helps!!!!!
    Vomitttt.
    hmm, a dark red color (burgandy?)
    I say a nice dark brownish red maybe.
    well if you have black hair you should tyotally dye it weith pink or blonde highlights it would loook really pretty...

    blonde and burgandy. and do it with your friends. its way cheaper and more fun :)
    then you should do light brown highlights..

    What color should I highlight my hair for prom? I'm wearing a dark blue dress.?

    I have darkish brown hair and fair skin. I want to highlight my hair and would like to know what would complement me and the dark blue dress I'm wearing to prom.What color should I highlight my hair for prom? I'm wearing a dark blue dress.?
    I would go with auburn and blonde highlights and low lights. Reds and blondes always go great with dark blue. Hope you have a fun time at prom!What color should I highlight my hair for prom? I'm wearing a dark blue dress.?
    If you have fair skin and wearing a dark blue dress it'll probably bleach you out too much with all that darkness on you light skin, so put some highlights in to lighten it up a bit. You might wanna go for something like light brown and a medium blonde with your already dark brown hair. That should bring more attention to your pretty face and eyes instead of how pale you look.
    This would look nice:

    What would be a good highlight color for my hair? [pics]?

    I'm thirteen and have black hair and I was wondering what would be a good highlight color for my hair?


    What's the estimate cost if I want to get it done at a salon?

    My hair looks oily because I just washed it, and that's almost the best picture I could find.


    Sorry.What would be a good highlight color for my hair? [pics]?
    i would have to say a chocolate (dark kinda) brown with blonde streaks. i would guess it would depends were you get it done. some between $40-$80. i am not really sure my mom pays like $40 for touch ups at the roots and a few streaks (but she also gets a hair cut when she gets touch ups) yeah well i hoped i helped.What would be a good highlight color for my hair?

    I've always liked the burgandy colored chunks in darker hair like yours. Because sometimes when you go to lighten hair that dark it turns a not-so-nice shade of orange! And the contrast of bleached out blonde %26amp; black hair can sometimes looks just plain trashy! So I'd stick to the burgandy. But, that's just my opinion!! Hope it helps!!
    i would get a caramel color, it will look natural and good with your skin.





    at my salon its 60 but my friend gets hers done for only 40





    GOOD LUCK





    btw ask your stylist what will look best. they know and its thier job!
    i would get a light brown and its about $100-$150 to get it done @ a salon i payed $105 to bleach my highlights
    $24or 18 dollers and red would go good
    light brown or maybe a darkish brown. Probably about 45-60 dollars
    probably about 60-80 $


    and a bronze would look nice=)
    Light brown
    BLONDE
