40-he-he-he! I wish my mom would pay for hi-lights! Actually she got them for my daughter when she was 12. the saga of that lil' rebel's hair is on my other post about step-moms and hair. It does seem that kids, boys and s alike, are getting them younger and younger. I think middle school 6 or 7th grade is fine for the natural variety, still deciding on the crazy colors.

My 7 year old has absolute light brown hair, so she will probably want them sooner. My older s have very dark brown hair and golden hair, so the highlights are more of a fun thing. I have to admit the 7 yr old would look cute with a few NATURAL golden highlights, but the risk of eye injury means you have to be certain they won't freak out if it starts to itch. They have to be mature enough to sit still.

The word for a female child is deleted above due to parental controls. Isn't it sad that such an innocent word need to be blocked to avoid inappropriate websites, as does the word for light hair- b****e.

Honestly, IMO my, now 5 year old, won't be getting highlights until she can pay for them herself......so 18.

I don't see that it matters much. It's hair. It grows back. I was 13 when I started "going brown" (after being a fair haired kid for years) and at that point my mom let me add highlights. My sons are 16 and 10 and both have had crazy colors (starting as early as age 9)...

I guess closer to 9 or 10... I hate to mess with their healthy natural hair before that but I also don't see it as a huge deal.

I'm with lola on this one, when she can earn enough to pay for it herself.
