You might want to try Stick It tape. Low shine, strong, no irritation. I like blue liner and some of the other strong tapes but after awhile they cause irritation in the nape area.

Looks great! Subtle highlights and a little hair product go a long way toward enhancing the effect. Looks like a good color match as well. Excellent job!

Homer, You have to get high quality hair dye. Most of the grocery/drug store products will fade more quickly. Perhaps Debbie has some suggestions on which products to use?
