What is hairdresser speak for dyed streaks? Hair advice please

[itsboiledeggsagain]

Last time I got highlights when I wanted something a lot more noticeable and dramatic.

Longer version is that my hair is shoulder length, reasonably grey but dyed brown. I hate the orange colour it always goes and am thinking about embracing thick chunky stripes of grey with no dye on main bit. Is this crazy? I'm 39

Flashes is what you mean.

But a hairdresser will understand what you put in your op

Flashes is a word I have never before heard so thanks very much!

Have you got a photo you could take?

I always take pictures now, even pictures of what I don’t want just to make it clear, there are always loads on Pinterest. I’ve found over the years that a lot can get misinterpreted!
