Hair higlights scared!!! ehhhh?

I am 17 f Indian. I have dark brown wavy hair which is till the middle of my back. It's in layers. My hair is in a quite healthy condition. I want to highlight my hair but I am scared. I think that it will get damaged. My friends say that it will look cool because I am fair. Soo should I go for it? If yes then which colours? How to take care of it soo that it stays in a healthy condition?

You should be scared.......your friends have absolutely nothing to loose if you turn your beautiful hair orange, (which you certainly will)...Go to a salon and let a colorist do your hair and you will be happy.

i would not get anything too heavy. don't ask for the chunky highlights, get the finer ones. its hard to say without seeing you , as far as color goes , but i would think that you have a couple of options . option 1 would be to add some caramel / gold / dark blond highlights to your hair. nothing too heavy at first though because it will need to be touched up more often. the other option would be to add a burgundy sort of shade as highlights. again, i would consult with a hairdresser and get a partial highlight job rather than the full one to start out with to make sure you like it. you normally highlight hair quarterly and keep it trimmmed so it looks nice. you will need to use conditioner and you will be fine. i would keep your length, but maybe ask for a few long layers. i do not think that it will damage your hair but the negative thing is that you have to maintain it and it is time consuming and expensive. if you have a pretty natural color and nice virgin hair , maybe you would be satisfied with a new hairstyle and leave the highlighting go ? if your hair is very long, and you find you do not like the highlights it will take quite a while to grown them out to get it all back to its all natural state , complete virgin hair again. think about it and decide what YOU think is best for YOU . i would not make the decision based on my friends pushing you into something you are not ready for . good luck to you / hope you love the highlights if you decide to get them / or enjoy a new hairstyle if you decide to wait to get them later on in life when you can't avoid it anymore (gray). lol :-)

Try a color that doesnt contrast too much with your natural hair color first to see how it goes with you. That way, if it causes too much damage, or if you dont like it, you can let it grow out. Otherwise you will have to go through another procedure to remove it, or color your hair with your natural hair color to cover it.

There will be some damage if youre highlighting, but not as much as you would get if you were to color your whole head of hair regularly.
