In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: One of the most common mistakes people make when bleaching their hair at home is applying bleach to the roots first. Your roots develop much faster than the rest of your hair because of the heat generated by your head. If you apply the bleach to the roots first, you risk over-processing it and developing orange roots. This is especially important if you have warm-toned or dark-colored hair. The lightening process naturally makes your hair warmer. Using a cool or ashy-toned hair dye will help neutralize that. Avoid going too light. Choose something that is 1 or 2 shades lighter than your natural color. Many lighter hair dyes contain small levels of peroxide, which is what allows them to lighten your hair. If you apply them to your roots first, you will risk over-processing your hair and developing hot roots. Instead, apply the dye the middle of your hair first. Work the dye towards the ends, then do the roots. It would be even better if you applied the color to your roots during the last 5 minutes of processing time. If you dyed your hair lighter and need to touch up the roots, use the same color as your treated hair (not the new growth). You can even go a shade darker. If you are covering up grays, opt for a color-depositing, demi-permanent hair color instead. If you are touching up light-colored roots to match a darker dye job, you don't have to worry about hot roots. Once you have finished rinsing the color from your hair, apply a color-safe conditioner. This will help keep your hair from over-processing and developing orange roots. The sun's UV rays can not only bleach your hair and add highlights, but it can also cause it to oxidize and turn brassy. Cover your hair with a hood, hat, or scarf whenever stepping out into the sun. If you don't like wearing stuff on your head, coat your hair with a UV protection spray or oil.
Summary: Apply bleach to the ends of your hair first, then the roots. Opt for a cool or ashy tone when dyeing your hair lighter. Apply dye to the mid-lengths first if you are going lighter. Choose the right shade when touching up roots. Condition your hair immediately after dyeing it. Protect your hair from the sun.

If you feel you still need help becoming assertive, it can help to see a professional. Counselors and psychologists have education and training specifically in helping people communicate in healthy and meaningful ways. Many universities offer assertiveness training to the students. This will help you practice assertiveness techniques while helping you discuss different situations where you feel you need help in being assertive, as well as help in controlling your stress as you navigate different situations. Asserting yourself takes practice and time. Ask a friend to help you practice your communication skills in various scenarios. The more you face situations that demand assertiveness, even when they are mock situations, the more confident you will become.

Q: Take the working yarn and wrap it around each peg in a clockwise motion. Remember to work once around the dolly in counterclockwise direction. You should now have 2 loops on each peg. Keep making loops and stitching them through the center of the dolly. You may need to pull your stitches tight by tugging the yarn tail that comes out of the bottom. When you're ready to cast off, leave a single loop on each peg. The cord will extend out of the bottom of the knitting dolly as it becomes longer.
A: Wrap another round of loops around the pegs. Continue to French knit until the cord is as long as you like.

Article: Puppies less than four weeks old do not really need to be bathed. At most, bathe your puppy one time if it is very dirty and the mother cannot clean it herself. Holding the puppy close to your chest will keep it warm. Newborn puppies are very sensitive to temperature. Don't put the puppy into water because its body cannot regulate temperature well. Choose a cloth that is clean and soft because newborn puppies are very sensitive. For very tiny puppies, you can even use a cotton ball or piece of gauze. Wet the clean washcloth in warm water and wring out most of the excess water until it is just damp. Do not use soap or dog shampoo on a puppy under four weeks old, its skin is too sensitive and can dry out from shampoo. Use the warm, damp cloth to gently wipe the puppy's coat. Start at the head and wipe softly toward the tail. It is very important to dry the puppy to remove any excess moisture. A wet puppy can become too cold very quickly because it has a hard time regulating its body temperature. After cleaning and drying the puppy, return it to its mother so she can keep it warm. If it is not possible to place the puppy with its mother, make sure it stays in a warm area without cold drafts.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Decide if your puppy needs bathing. Hold the puppy close to yourself. Use a gentle washcloth. Use only water. Gently wipe the puppy. Dry the puppy. Return the puppy to its mother.

Problem: Article: Eventually, you'll glaze the ham about 15 to 20 minutes before it's finished cooking. To have the glaze ready in time, start working on it around 45 to 60 minutes before you expect the ham to be done. Quick glazes take mere minutes, and even those that need to be reduced on the stove top take under 15 minutes. For the easiest, no-cook option, simply whisk together 1 cup (265 g) of dark brown sugar with 14 cup (59mL) of orange juice, red wine, or cognac. Mix the ingredients in a small bowl until the sugar has dissolved completely. Alternatively, combine 1 cup (265 g) of light brown sugar, 23 cup (160mL) of soy sauce, and 2 minced garlic cloves in a small saucepan, then bring the ingredients to a boil over medium heat. Lower the heat once the mixture has reached a boil. Stir it occasionally, and simmer it for 3 to 5 minutes, or until it's thickened slightly. Then turn off the heat, and allow the glaze to cool for at least 10 to 15 minutes before brushing it over the ham. Whisk together 113 cups (320mL) of molasses, 23 cup (160mL) of bourbon, and teaspoon (1 g) of ground cloves in a small saucepan. Bring the ingredients to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes. Once the mixture has thickened slightly, turn off the heat, and let it cool for 10 to 15 minutes. Combine 34 cup (180mL) of maple syrup, 12 cup (120mL) of orange marmalade, 2 tablespoons (30 g) of unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon (16 g) of Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon (2 g) of ground black pepper, and teaspoon ( g) of ground cinnamon in a small saucepan. Simmer the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes, or until it's syrupy and has reduced to 1 cup (240mL). Let the glaze cool for at least 10 to 15 minutes before brushing it over the ham. You can find countless recipes for glazes, but coming up with your own glaze is easy. Experiment with ingredients on hand until you've balanced sweet, acidic, and savory flavors. Aim to make between 1 and 2 cups (240 and 470mL) of glaze, and reserve about a third of it to serve at the dinner table. The basic ingredients of a glaze are a sweetener (such as brown sugar or molasses), an acid (such as vinegar or orange juice), and herbs or spices (such as thyme or cloves).
Summary:
Prepare the glaze after putting the ham in the oven. Whisk up a brown sugar glaze if you want a simple, classic option. Simmer a soy sauce glaze to add savory notes. Combine bourbon, molasses, and cloves for a deep, warm glaze. Make a maple-orange glaze for a tangy, bright flavor combination. Try coming up with your own custom glaze.
