Dear Krissy,

I am going to a special holiday gathering in just a couple of weeks and I have been thinking about just getting a couple of of highlights around my face.  That is the only place I want them.  If I go to a salon and request that will they do what I request or try and pressure me into more than I want?

Dear Michelle,

Remember, the client is always right.  If it is something that would be harmful to your hair or if the stylist has an idea that they want to share with you they might do that because that is their job, but in the end it is always your decision as to what you will have done to your hair.  Always stick to your guns when you have a definite idea in mind to guarantee you leave looking exactly the way you wanted!
