What color would look good as streaks on hair that is pretty much black? It's really actually dark brown but it looks black. I want highlights preferribly without going to a salon but that's not set in stone. What color should I try? I would like to stick to fairly natural colors. Thanks!

Go for some honey or caramel colors - they will look very subtle indoors, but sparkle in the sunlight.
Please go to a salon, especially with really dark hair. If you attempt to do it yourself you could end up with orange hair! The darker the hair, the more levels of lift you need to obtain to get the desired result, most of the store bought highlighters are just bleach (like I said orange hair). Another benefit of going to a salon is most of them guarantee their work, so if you hate it they should fix it.
Another option -if money is your concern - go to a beauty school and have a (teacher supervised) student do it for you.

Good Luck!

For jet black or very dark brown hair the best color highlight would be a dark red, auburn-ish color. Think brown with a reddish tint. I've seen it before and it looks very pretty.

Try going to a salon and getting red or purple highlights. Or, you could just buy a home-kit from Target or somewhere. Whatever you want..

Light Brown or even a darker brown.
