It’s time to order a box of hair dye!

Feeling like I’m a grandmother already, although I’m not…

Anyway, which box dye is simplest? And is there a way to make highlights in my hair once I’m doing this?

they are pretty much all the same. mix one with the other and put it on. let it sit. rinse and condition.

I don;t know how to highlight

They are all easy to use just some stink more than others. Here’s a tip: make sure to not get it anywhere!!! I cover my floor with a plastic tablecloth when I do it’.

Foam is the easiest to get the color even when doing it yourself. John Frieda Precision Foam Color is very user friendly.
Watch a video before, and keep the instruction sheet open and follow along (because some steps are not intuitive- like no mixing, don't press down on pump).

Best to do it undressed in the bathroom. Wear the gloves it comes with. Stay away from the shower curtain so you don't leave a stain. Keep a towel handy that you can get dirty or a roll of paper towels. Also a watch or phone to time and keep yourself busy.
