Q. My hair is shoulder length with no body.How can I get more body?
—Linda from Laguna Beach
A. Linda, layering your hair creates volume. Also cutting bangs creates a completely different look. Body waves add fullness. Velcro rollers or a hot iron helps to add fullness.
Q. I bought a box color and put it on my hair.Now my hair looks black and ugly...help!
—Debbie from Aliso Viejo
A. Debbie, I know commercials on TV make it seem like anyone can color their hair. But reality is you need a professional. Now that your hair is black you need to use a color removal. You need a professional to remove the dark color without damage. Do not try this at home. You are probably looking at 2 to 3 hours of color correction. That ranges from $100 to $150 an hour. That $15 box color ruined your hair and now it will cost you $200 or more to fix. Again, please consult your professional.

I am happy to be as old as I am. In fact, I am delighted with it. I actually sympathize with the young generations today. But by no fault of their own. But I do thank you for your quick response. And I wish you a satisfying and prosperous career in designing hair.
But that is taboo in our society so most hairdressers would probably throw their arms up in frustration with me. heh. Good luck, Tim. Stick with the ladies hair. There's no money in it with a guy like me. heh.
