INPUT ARTICLE: Article: As soon as you've proofread your draft, and prior to sending it off, take a photo (transfer to pdf), save a draft online, or make a traditional copy of your letter. You may also want to write down the mail off date if it doesn't match the one at the top of the letter. File this copy somewhere safe for your personal record. Take your letter to the local post office, give it to your mail carrier, or drop it in a post box. If you want more assurance that your letter was received you can always request extra tracking services for an additional fee. If you are going to mail off a hard copy of your letter, make sure to print it out using a high quality printer with a good ink cartridge. A handwritten extension request is generally not acceptable. This is the probably the best way to send your request as it requires little time and is very reliable. Verify your recipient's email address before sending and include your identification number, if relevant, in the subject line. Your recipient may be able to see the exact time that you sent the email. Be aware of this if you like to send off emails very late at night. Keep your email formal and that includes the address that you use as well. Send this email from a professional-sounding account. For example, sending a work email from "John.k.Smith@yahoo.com" is appropriate. If you send your letter via fax, make sure to hold on to the confirmation page showing that your transmission was successfully sent and received. If your need for an extension is urgent or very last minute, you may be better served by talking to them in person or by calling. If this is the situation, continue to act formally and state your case in an organized way.

SUMMARY: Make or save a copy of your letter. Place it in the standard mail. Email your extension request. Make a phone call instead of writing.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Bleach is a strong chemical; it can irritate and even burn your scalp and skin. The natural oils that build up when you do not wash your hair will protect your scalp from these harsh irritants. Give your hair at least a 48-hour break from shampooing before you begin the bleaching process. Deep-condition your hair a week before you plan to bleach. This can help minimize hair damage and breakage associated with bleaching. Unless you were born with very light red hair, you will probably have to bleach first to achieve a true color change. Developer is the chemical that lifts color from your hair. The strength you need depends on how many shades you have to lift. Dark red hair will need a stronger developer than lighter red shades. Volume 40 is the strongest developer. Because it lifts your hair more quickly than lower volumes, is also harsher on your hair. If you are concerned about using a volume 40 developer, you can use repeated treatments of a volume 20 or 30 developer over the course of a few weeks. Pick up the developer strength you need and bleach powder at a beauty supply store. Grab an applicator and a pair of plastic gloves, too. Put on the protective gloves and pour equal parts bleach powder and developer in a large plastic bowl. Stir until they are fully incorporated. Drape a towel around your shoulders to protect them from the bleach right before you begin. Bleaching is an easier process if you start by dividing your hair up into four manageable sections. Part your hair down the middle, from crown to nape. Then divide those sections in half horizontally, from one ear to the other. Use plastic hair clips to secure each section on top of your head. Working in sections also helps you get the most even coverage and results. Bleach the bottom sections first. Remove the hair clip from one of the bottom sections of hair. Apply the bleach mixture to that section of hair with the applicator, working from root to tip. Get as close to the roots as you can, but do not get the bleach on your scalp. Completely saturate that section of hair, then carefully clip it back up. Remove the clip from the next section and apply the bleach in the exact same way. Clip it back up and repeat until you have finished saturating all four sections of hair with the mixture. Paint the mixture on in thin layers to make sure you get full and even coverage. If you like, you can wrap your hair up with saran wrap or place a shower cap over it to prevent dripping, but you do not have to. The exact time frame depends on the current color of your hair and the specific products you are using, but 30-45 minutes is the typical range. Never leave bleach on your hair longer than 60 minutes. If it helps, set a timer so you will not lose track of time. Check your hair every ten minutes or so to gauge progress. Cold water reacts with the bleach chemicals and causes them to stop processing your hair immediately. Rinse the bleach mixture out carefully and thoroughly. Follow up the rinse by shampooing twice to ensure you have completely removed all of the bleach mixture. If the bleach left yellow or brassy shades in your hair, use a purple shampoo to tone it.

SUMMARY: Avoid washing your hair for 48 hours before you bleach. Choose a developer strength. Mix the developer and bleach powder together. Use a plastic comb to divide your hair into four sections. Paint bleach onto the first section using the applicator. Apply the bleach mixture to the other three sections of hair. Wait 30 minutes. Rinse out the bleach mixture thoroughly with cold water.
