INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Doing this will keep your hair color looking natural and youthful. Since the fine hairs around your hairline soak up dye quickly, you could end up with a stark, wig-like line around your face if you don't go a little lighter. Whatever the shade is at the back of your head, use a dye that's two shades lighter for your hairline. Your hairline is the fine hair closest to your face and stretches from ear to ear. One-dimensional, monotone hair color is unflattering and aging, regardless of the hue. Multidimensional hair color looks youthful and more natural. Adding subtle highlights can give your hair more dimension. Go for warm, buttery and caramel tones, not cool or ashy tones, to create a sun-kissed, youthful look. Avoid stripy, conspicuous highlights, which look very unnatural. Super light highlights should also be avoided, since these can create a "frosty" effect and add years to your appearance. Lowlighting is the exact opposite of highlighting the process involves dyeing darker streaks into your hair, which creates even more dimension. A good approach is to have the majority of your hair dyed a very rich hue that's close to your natural color. Then add highlights that are one shade lighter than that hue and lowlights that are one shade darker. Lowlights should be done by an experienced hair stylist, since the process isn't easy to replicate at home. If you aren't sure how to choose the right highlights and lowlights, bring three pictures of hair color you like to your next salon appointment. Your stylist can work with you to choose the right shades. Highlights and lowlights will add lots of dimension to your hair, but for best results they should be placed strategically. The brightest highlights should frame your face and "kiss" the top of your head. The darkest color needs to be underneath the majority of your hair. Face-framing highlights will look more youthful because they add brightness and warmth to your complexion. They also look very natural.

SUMMARY: Go two shades lighter around the hairline. Get subtle highlights in warm tones. Make sure you have highlights and lowlights in your hair. Frame your face with the lightest highlights.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Lots of people are talented or naturally gifted at something, but that doesn't really make someone special. Developing a natural inclination for one thing or another can help, but it takes work to actual build that talent into something truly special. Commit to yourself and to building up your natural talents and abilities by working on them until you're an expert. Author Malcolm Gladwell writes extensively of the 10,000 hour rule in his book "Outliers: The Story of Success," that people who succeed and display true specialness have worked hard for it. It takes roughly 10,000 hours of committing to a craft, talent, or other ability before you can display any real talent or unique spice. Focus on developing yourself and working, not on making yourself special overnight. The first draft of the first novel you ever tried to write isn't going to be genius, and that's ok. Keep working. Keep getting better. People who are special don't wait around for good things to happen, special people go on the prowl for what they want, and take it. Special people have claws. Identify the things that would make you feel more satisfied, the things that would improve your condition, and identify the steps that will be necessary in getting them. Be ceaseless in your quest for those goals, things, and stages. Get what you want. Focus less on excuses. People who aren't special spend a lot of time talking about "back in the days" and "what ifs." Don't give yourself a chance to have those moments. Let yourself show. Be your true, liberated, uncensored, natural self when you're alone and when you're in public. If there is a single part of you that you don't let other people see, consider opening up more and being more vulnerable. If you tend toward the quiet, learn to start speaking your mind when it's necessary. Don't be a "yes" person. If you disagree with someone, voice your dissent. People respect others who speak their mind and are unafraid of looking for the truth. If you're around people who need their ego inflated by glad-handing sycophants, well, they're not special. Ditch 'em. Being uncensored doesn't mean letting every thought that flits through your mind come out of your mouth. Being special doesn't mean being purposefully strange, cruel, or rude. It just means that you must stop quieting yourself when you should be speaking, acting, or thinking. If it needs saying, say it. If it needs thinking, think it. It's good to find your people, a tight-knit group of friends and loved ones that you feel comfortable with. But special people take extra effort to shake up their expectations and their preconceptions, and meet and attempt to understand all kinds of people. Be willing to listen. If you're a young person, getting a job can be a big learning experience and a way of helping to develop your empathy skills. try to get an after-school job for a few hours each week and take it seriously. Hang out with people who you actively disagree with on religious, political, or moral grounds. Don't try to convince people that they're wrong about something, try to understand them. Open your mind. Give yourself a chance to feel confident and special by treating yourself and taking your appearance seriously. Buy clothes that are flattering to your shape and that you enjoy wearing. Groom yourself in a way that makes you feel confident. If that means crew-cut and cowboy boots, great. If that means waist-length dreads and Teva's, great. You don't need to be a Gucci model or competing in some kind of hipster Olympics to look special. There's no special style. Go with what looks good on you, what makes you feel confident.

SUMMARY: Put in your 10,000 hours. Be a lion or a lioness. Uncensor yourself. Surround yourself with new people. Develop your own style.
