Wikipedia stub: hair dye stripping

Writing and editing articles on Wikipedia was a new experience for me. I was already starting to feel the tension when scrolling to find a stub, that I could work on, without having anyone else in the class claim it. The stub on "hair dye stripping" (found under "fashion stubs") had little information written on the topic, and more importantly, the information was not even referenced. Therefore, my main focus was to expand the content of this topic and to establish a list of references so that the information was plagiarized. 


It was particularly frustrating and disheartening to create a proper reference on Wikipedia at first, but the Wikipedia Cheatsheet and the templates for citing and referencing external sources were extremely helpful. Finding more information on colour correction was also another obstacle because many of the links were discussion panels on how to remove dye colours at home. Searching via databases, sadly, yielded fruitless results. On an optimistic note, it was a challenging but not an impossible feat to find additional information to enhance the previously existing content.
