Alternate your purple shampoo use with non-tinted shampoos to keep your tint light and even. If you have warmer naturally blonde hair, you may even use the shampoo only when you notice yellowing. Pay attention to your hair and use your judgment when establishing a routine. If you're not noticing any changes after a month, you can always up your routine to 2-3 times a week. Although purple shampoo will not dye your hair, you may notice some lilac tints after you wash if it's too strong. To prevent this, mix your purple shampoo with water in a 2:1 ratio and put it in a spray bottle.  If you need to dilute the mixture further, add more water. This option is ideal for individuals with already-warm hair who are just touching up their color. In lieu of using the shampoo in the bath or shower, massage the shampoo into your hair before you get it wet. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then rinse it out with cold water. Applying the shampoo dry can leave your hair glossier and rid it of a persistent brassy hue. Try this method if you have severely brassy hair and have seen limited results from washing with purple shampoo. Purple shampoo can dry out your hair over time. To prevent brittle, unhealthy hair, deep condition your hair several times a month after using purple shampoo, or whenever your hair starts to feel dry. If your hair is frizzy or flyaway, often has split ends, exhibits a dull color, or is prone to breakage, you may have dry hair.

summary: Use purple shampoo once a week or whenever you notice brassiness. Dilute your purple shampoo if it's too strong for your hair. Apply purple shampoo to dry hair for a glossy finish. Deep condition a few times a month.

If power the LED (typically on the side or back of the unit near the power port) does not come on when you attempt to turn on the unit, there may be an issue with your laptop battery. Connect the laptop to a power source with the AC (power) adapter if you’ve not already done so. Leave it plugged in for several minutes before turning it back on. With the laptop unplugged, remove the battery. Reconnect the power cable and try turning on the computer. If the computer turns on without the battery, you’ll need to buy a new laptop battery.  If it still won’t power on, unplug the power cord from the laptop, then hold down the power button for 5 to 30 seconds. Next, attempt to turn the computer back on—first with no battery, then with the battery installed. If it turns on without the battery this time (but not with the battery installed), buy a new battery. First, if you’re using a power strip or extension cord, remove it and plug the laptop directly into the wall. Both extension cords and power strips can fail. If the computer still won’t turn on with those items out of the equation, rule out problems with the power outlet by plugging in a different electrical device, such as a lamp that you know works. As you do this, watch the power LED light. Lightly jiggle the connector back and forth, up and down.  If the LED flickers, the issue is either with your AC adapter or the power port in your computer. Even if it doesn’t flicker, one of these components could be the issue.  Look inside the power port of the laptop to see if anything appears loose, broken or missing. If you can, try to jiggle the connector inside the port (gently) with your finger. Abnormalities indicate that the port will need to be repaired. If something is off, call your manufacturer’s support line to see if you qualify for a free repair. Another option is to replacing the power jack in the laptop yourself. Like going to a repair shop, replacing the power pin yourself could void your warranty. If the power jack appears normal, or if you’re simply unable to determine whether or not it’s defective, try a new power adapter. It’s crucial to remember that the adapter must be the exact model recommended by your computer manufacturer. Using the wrong power cable can fry your computer. See How to Check the Compatibility of an AC Adapter and Your Computer for tips on finding the right adapter. If the laptop still won’t power on, the issue is likely with the motherboard. If your computer is still under warranty, you may qualify for a free replacement or repair.

summary: Plug the laptop in. Try it without the battery. Test the power outlet. Gently jiggle the power cord where it plugs into the laptop. Try a new AC adapter. Call your manufacturer or computer repair shop for recommendations.


Summarize the following:
The bat’s head should be approximately 3 inches wide with winged tipped ears.  You can use the construction paper itself as the bat’s head, or black felt by using what you’ve drawn as a stencil and cutting around it. Outline both eyes with the white colored pencil and then fill them in with either the pencil, or with whiteout. Each wingtip should extend approximately 8 inches outward with pointy ends. Wings should extend approximately 2-3 inches past each shoulder.  Cut around the outline to create the wings. You can use these construction paper wings or create more life-like wings by using black felt.You can use your outline as a stencil to cut the felt into wings. Use white paint or whiteout to draw small horizontal lines within each wingtip. There are no set amount of lines to draw, but shoot for a minimum of 2-3 lines starting at the tip of each wing down to the center. You can use one pin on either side of the bat’s face, or place one at the top of its head and another at the bottom.  The wings should be left unpinned and should be sticking straight out about 2-3 inches past the shoulders. Pinning the bow tie may be best accomplished once you have already put on the suit.
summary: Draw a bat on black construction paper using a white colored pencil. Outline 3 large wingtips per side (6 total) using black construction paper. Pin the bat to the neck area of the costume using two silver safety pins.
