My college roommate had black hair and it looked absolutely beautiful with red highlights. You definately should have it professionally done. I think that you have to have the part of your hair that will be red bleached first, but they use foils so that only the parts that are being dyed red get bleached--not your whole head. Go to your hair salon and see a stylist for a consultation he/she should be able to explain the procedure in detail and tell you how your hair will react to the different chemicals.
Good luck! I'm sure you'll love it!

yes you should get it professionally done cuz you don't exactly no what kind of color you will wind up with if you go with a non professional color, trust me i work in a salon and have had to try to fix many of colors that have been done by box or other than professionally done, not exactly easy. if you want highlights go to Cost Cutters and ask to see their colors you can do just about any color on black hair. If you don't want to use bleach, then use a high lift color to get the same effect without the damage that bleach can do.

if u have a wheatish skin tone, blood red highlights are the best. if u are pale skinned, go for maroon or dark red. if u have dark skin a very bright red highlight will look nice.

You can't get a vibrant red, without stripping your natural colour 1st. It will be more of a red tint.
