thanks for the ideas. the model is a brunette but her hair has no life to it. pretty but not is a fashion textured multi blended kid of way. i would love to take her to my hairdresser before i shoot her for some layers and highlights but ....to expensive and she doesn't want to do that. so adding gold will give me the look i want in the photo.

she has bone straight thick hair that i am going to curl really tight 1/4" and 1/2" irons, then i was going to add gold to individual curls. what about mixing the powder with a dry oil shinner? do you have an other product mixers recs i can try? anyone
