I was 19. I used the L'oreal Brush On stuff in Burgundy that I'm sure you remember. My parents didn't know about it till I came home, LOL.
I seem to remember one of my friends doing this in the middle of our dorm floor by the elevators...it must have been an extraordinarily boring night. I was like "OMG it's so bright, don't put too much on" and of course the next time I did it was like "OMG isn't there any more left? Did you put EVERY DROP on my head?"
Then of course I permed over it, and it turned a coppery color, which I'm sure would have upset some people but which as far as I was concerned was like getting 2 color jobs for the price of one. God, I'm so 80's.
My hair is REALLY dark and REALLY dense, and at the time had no gray, so it was pretty hard to mess up. Everyone's hair is different though. If you've got any gray you need to cover - and you want highlights - please, says the Voice of Experience, get it done professionally.
