I want to put some strand detail and contrast into my fairy's hair but I don't want to fuss too much. Any advice is welcome.

That's a pretty good one Jorden, I could adapt that quite easily. Thanks for the link. I'm thinking of giving her a plaited pony tail. Haven't decided yet. My problem seems to be that I start off too light when doing blonde hair.
