thing is high light have a big part in damaging ur hair.. i know this because ive done it before... hair spray and highlights dont mix either... best bet is to stop highlighting and let ur hair breath.. go and buy some spray and highlight temporary not permanatly..think before u highlight.. as permanat as it is, as permanate it can damage it!

Sounds like you need something a little more powerful than the anti-snap. Try one of the products featured on this page...

thats funny! you can not temporarily lift color from the hair. thats crap. you need to stop bleaching & flat ironing your hair. both of these things wreck hair over time. also always use good products like the rest of the extreme line by redken. deep fuel treatments are a must.
