im thinking about gradually going blonde and i have really dark brown hair can you help me??

Question

i have a picture of me with my natural hair color and if you could tell me or guess if i would look good as a blonde that would really help

Answer 1

You're on the right track already!
Going gradually from one color to a totally different one is always the best way. Slowly add blonde in the same tone as your hair (ash, natural, golden) and it will probably look great. Lightening your hair without changing the tones brightens your face.

My friend went from brunette to blonde. She would go to the salon every 2 months and get highlights. She started off with a few highlights in a lighter shade of brown. Every time she went, she'd get more highlights and go lighter in color. In a little over a year, she was completely blonde. This is kind of a costly process, but it's not so harsh on your hair. And it's less of a shock factor to those around you.

Answer 3

you can dye your hair light brown first and see if you like it, then go lighter if it still looks okay. For the "blonding" dye it the darkest shade of blonde you can, then go to the pool alot, the chlorine will "bleach"/lighten it for you (friend's brother goes swimming everyday, used to be a brunette, turned into a blonde, JUST by swimming), when youre at the shade of blonde you want, just stop going swimming. (you'll get a great body by excercising too)

Answer 4

DON'T bleach it yourself. Your hair will break off and, you'll end up having patches of blonde and orange. Go to a salon and ask them how light they think you can go and, prepare to have to do A LOT of deep conditioning after it's done. You may be at the salon for 8 hours if they do your whole head at once. (Depending on how much hair you have.)

Answer 5

it would really help to see you...
but i can say that if you go to a stylist, they will be able to tell you if you will look good with it or not.
also, if you already have dark brown, you may try going more of a honey or carmel color rather than platinum (i know from experience)

Answer 6

i was real dark brown hair,and ive been blonde for oh my about 10 yrs now.

Answer 7

I would just highlight your hair. Each time go to get your hair redone get more blonde put in.

Answer 8

well, if you really want to go blonde then you should first bleach your hair because it is brown. then, you should go and dye it, either yourself, or a professional, or a friend can do it.

Answer 9

if you go to your local hairdressers they can reccomend what would or would not suit you... it would prob be better for you to have the foil hi lights, they look great and you will be going blonde but not completely....
