Hi Jade!
Thanks for the useful tips. It's good to have advice when you need
it! Peroxide seems kind of problematic... once the tips of your hair
go dry, it's pretty hard to make tham lucious again. I'll just try
the old, unreliable lemon juice/sun technique.

(By the way, did you know that you can push the final color result
of body-art quality henna dye towards a bluish red if you add *Grape
Juice* to the mix?)

I'd love to hear about your plans with your hair.
(Believe me, I am crazy about hair!)

Hi Jade: That's my name too! What are you trying to do with
peroxide?
:
: Peroxide is a bleaching agent. It strips color from your hair but
: the results aren't always uniform and even. If you have natural
red
: highlights, like me, peroxide will cause you to have an orange-y
: brassy hair color. It's used in products like Sun-In.
:
: Perioxide is used in commercial hair dyes and it is a good
: antiseptic too.
:
: Honestly, I wouldn't use it on your hair becuase it will damage
your
: hair and will make the ends very dry. As for your scalp, you
could
: cause some dryness and flaking although when I used Sun-In 15
years
: ago I had no flaking - just ugly brassy orange hair.
:
: Good luck,
: Jade
