HAIRSURVIVALGUIDE ELAINAKARRAS<br />

A trend on-the-rise, learn how to take<br />

care of those pastel, mermaid tresses<br />

from a Nashville hair and makeup artist<br />

with first-hand experience and<br />

professional know-how.<br />

The first time I ever colored my hair pink<br />

was one of the most giddy experiences of my life! I<br />

was so excited (and scared)... but, once I saw the<br />

cotton-candy deliciousness surrounding my face, I<br />

knew I had made the right decision! It's been three<br />

years and my locks have seen every color of the<br />

rainbow. Although having mermaid hair has<br />

probably changed my life in some very positive<br />

ways - yes, really - there are many important factors<br />

to consider and understand before taking the<br />

plunge. This is a need-to-know ?survival guide? so<br />

you have the necessary information to save you a<br />

lot of time, money, and most importantlydisappointment.<br />

Be Realistic.<br />

It may not be possible for your stylist to<br />

accomplish this service in one day. Doing creative<br />

color properly is like performing surgery. Hairstylists<br />

have to chemically extract all of the natural (and/or<br />

chemically-altered) pigment from the hair without<br />

severely changing the physical structure and<br />

causing permanent damage. In order to do this<br />

correctly, it may take several hours to lift out the<br />

spectrum of colors from the hair.<br />

It is, unfortunately, not always your stylist?s<br />

error if your hair doesn?t become white within one<br />

sitting. At this time, we realistically do not have the<br />

technology available to us to lift dark brown hair to<br />

white in one sitting. On previously colored brown<br />

hair, it usually takes me 4-5 lightening sessions to<br />

accomplish the level of brightness that my clients<br />

desire without damaging their hair.<br />
