A crafty woman can learn a lot by absorbing this freely given knowledge, and wouldn’t it be cool if we could rock superb coloring jobs for a fraction of the price? Hope you’re ready to learn, girls, because I’ve got a great hair dyeing video (or few) to share!

1. Balayage/Ombre Highlights
This hair dyeing video is an absolute must see and trust me, ladies – you can do this at home! I touch up my ombre using this technique every couple of months and it really makes the whole look more natural and sort of professionally-done. Applying your dye this way takes hardly any skill and once you’ve decided where to start and which sections to do, you’ll be done and ready to tone in no time!
2. Dyeing Hair with Chalk
A bit messy, I’d say, but totally worth a try! Now, you probably won’t see me sporting a full rainbow look but a pinkish, purplish ombre – why not! The best thing about chalk pastels is that they don’t take forever to wash out, which is pretty great if you too like to experiment a lot but need to look like a grownup on most days.

Rebecca: The foiling video makes me cry, I'm a hairdresser and I took me three years of training to become qualified and I would never foil my own hair, take my advice just go to a professional
