Worst Dark to Medium Blonde: Christina Applegate

A real life heroine like Christina Applegate deserves better highlights than this. The highlights are probably achieved with bleach instead of tint. The result is one dimensional and flat. She would benefit from using two or three different shades of blonde to create depth and excitement.

My hair has been damaged from highlighting and I was growing tired of the time it took to comb out the tangled mess it became after shampooing and conditioning. It was stressful. I was seriously thinking of cutting my hair short to get rid of all the damage. Then my stylist recommended the Shielo Color Protect Shampoo & Conditioner. The Shielo Color Protect shampoo left my hair in such great condition that I went back to their website and bout their Antioxidant Hair Protectant. Last night I used the Shielo Antioxidant Protectant for the first time and just after shampooing it out, the comb ran right through the damaged strands. Plus, it smells great. I can not believe how much of an improvement I have seen already and I have not even had these products for a whole week.

Great tips, I especially liked the one with Blake Lively's current color! I am also a natural blonde, trying to get back to it from red, so this was a great help to me!

Solid advice for someone who hasn't highlighted their hair before or is trying a completely new hair color. The article definitely confirmed what I already knew about high/low lights for my hair color. Wish they included some alternative options though. Either way, it wasn't bad.
