Hair trouble. (Dear Highlights).

Every time I try to fix my hair it messes up. What should I do?

It's good that you are taking responsibility for your hair. But fixing hair is like anything else that a person learns: You will probably need someone else to show you how to do it. That could be an adult or an older girl who has a hairstyle that is similar to yours.

Check with your mom. She may have some good ideas or be willing to take you to a beautician for help.
