I have dark brown hair...looking to go to a dark blonde color without completely frying my hair....(photo on my 360 page)

What brand/shade do you reccomend?

Ladies with experience in home hair coloring please answer?

I know this answer may not please you but after years of frying my hair only to have it end up orange, green or worse...I put the extra bucks out for the professionals when it comes to my hair...I would have saved $ by never touching it myself...you need a pro or you will get orange/coppery results, there is no over the counter product that will take your hair all the way to blonde...trust me...I have been through it all!!!!!

Just so you know, I am not rich by any stretch and I am very tight with a buck...but there a three things in life I splurge on, good toilet paper, real butter and hair dressers........!!!!LOL

I tried this once and my hair turned orange so i would suggest going to the salon to get it done..Also i tried getting it from black to blonde and it fried my scalp...

When you have dark brown hair like myself I would strongly recommend going to the salon especially when dealing with blonde. If a salon is too expensive try a tech school they are cheaper and all work is done with a instructor watching. I love doing my own because its cheaper but the school is another way to go. Good Luck.

Anything with an ash color in it. Ash meaning green which cuts the red. I go to Sally's beauty supply and use a cream developer, you probably want a 40 volumne since you want lift and not just deposit.

You're probably not going to like this answer, but it will be very difficult if not impossible for you to get the color you want (you'll most likely turn a brassy shade/reddish or worse, greyish green!)....you really should go to a salon. In order to go lighter, you have to strip the pigment from your hair and apply new color...it's not as simple as just grabbing a box of hair dye and in 30 minutes you're done.

Any stylist or cosmetician will tell you the same thing. Good luck!

LOREAL MAKES A COLOR YOU CAN USE-BUT IF YOU ARE TRULY A BRUNETTE-THESE LIGHTER COLORS ARE BETTER FOR THE SUMMER TIME AND LOOK MORE NATURAL.GO GRADUALLY LIGHTER WITH THE DIFFERENT SHADES THEY HAVE - SPRINGS ALMOST HERE-START NOW, AND THEN GRADUALLY GO TOWARDS A LIGHTER SHADE. IT LOOKS MORE NATURAL. PERSONALLY I WOULDN'T RECCOMEND IT AT ALL. I TRIED IT AND HIGHLIGHTS ARE MUCH BETTER.

I have dyed my hair at home for 12 years now.. if your hair is dark brown, you DO NOT want to do it yourself for the first time! You will come out orange, and end up paying someone to corrective color your hair at a salon anyway. Go to the professionals.. going blonde uses bleach which strips your hair of its health. Go to a salon so that they use "better for you bleach". Once a salon does your hair and achieves the color you want, you will then be able to maintain it yourself from home without looking like an orange. TRUST ME!!!

I've always had really good results with Feria's bleaching kit, but you do have to be pretty careful and watch your time. Some of the others like Garnier and Herbal Essences are ok, but they seemed to fade out a lot in my hair.

Good luck - and have fun :)

I used to dye it at home and it NEVER came out right. Finally I went to Sally's Beauty salon and talked to one of the beauticians and they gave me the right dye, the right mixer, and this stuff you put in so it doesn't go red, orange, gold etc. My hair is light blonde so I wouldn't recommend my color but when you buy one pick a color that is neutral. Like Dark Blonde Neutral or Light Blonde Neutral. Doesn't matter what color as long as its neutral (no honey, golden, etc or it could turn orange, red, gold) Good luck! Hope it turns out good!
