SAFE MODE

I Held down Shift while turning on my iMac OS High Sierra. I was told this takes me to Safe Mode.

How can I tell if I am in it. I don't see anything different? If someone could answer ASAP that would be great. HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL.

iMac, macOS 10.13

No, you have to hold the shift key until you see the login window:
