I was afraid for the first time while highlighting my hairs, so I thought of colouring it at home and for that this product came into my mind first. But I was afraid of negative comment that highlights make your hair rough, increase hairfall etc. but anyhow I did it. And guess what, none of these happened. The colour was so vibrant and instead of becoming rough, my hairs were feeling so soft and smooth. Yes I applied it by just using my hands instead of the brush given inside it but it came out very beautifully, and if you want a caramel colour balayage, then please go for it, I am sure you will like the results.
