My hair is dark/medium blonde with natural looking highlights. When I use an at home all-over light golden brown dye, will the originally darker blonde parts remain darker, and the highlights darken, but not as much as the other parts? This is confusing...But I guess my main question is will ALL of my hair be the same color, or will it still be multi-tonal since my hair was originally?

Hello:
Is the color you are dying darker or lighter than your highlights?
If the color that you are dying is lighter than you highlights, then you will lighten your highlights even more, and the darker hair will be lightened. On the box, the hair color will show that different colored hair responds differently to hair dye.
On the other hand, if the color that you are dying is darker than the highlights, you run the risk of you highlights actually ending up darker than the rest of your hair! (this happened to me!) This is because the highlighted portion of your hair has had color stripped out of it and is now more porous and accepting of hair color.
If you want lighter hair (but darker than your existing highlights) and highlights, you may consider a 2 process color. Step one - lighten your hair overall, perhaps a shad lighter than you were thinking. Step two: add highlights.
Make sure to condition your hair well before coloring. This should keep the highlights from absorbing too much color as well.
Good luck

I Don't Think There is A Way Other Than Going Back To The Salon And Having Your Hair Stripped. This Means They'll Move ALL Hairdye And Your Hair Will Return To it's Natural Colour. It's Usually About £50-£80. xx

no it will be one colour because you're dying your hair all one colour
