lightening dark hair is tricky. I dyed my hair black, and tried making it lighter and didn't work...I went to the salon to get it lightened, and the only thing they could do for me was to put highlights in my hair to make it lighter...She bouched it, and I had coppery hair and uneven high lights.
Now, although my experience was bad, if you go to a well known hair stylist or salon, ask for a consultation. They will go over the steps needs to lighten your hair. Don't do it with a box. You can seriously mess up your hair doing that. Its best to go to a salon that isn't a franchise, go to one that is, well, high end, one of a kind....Generally, they've got the best stylists. Look around as well for prices...The first place you go to might be expensive, but the next place might be cheaper.
Just make sure you can a consultation first before letting them dye it, make sure you understand exactly what they're going to do. You don't want to walk out of the place having orangish blah hair when you wanted a chocolatey brown.I have natural black hair and I am looking to dye my hair lighter. Can someone please give me some help?
Thanks for your help.
I am also wondering if a Level 7 Dark / Golden Blonde would be obtainable.
I am going to be using maslon and professional help.

If you are looking for an exact lighter tone ..you will have to go bleach first then dye it by the colour you want.
Or you could console your salon about a good effective hair dye which would give a lighter colour as you have dark hair, if you dont want to go bleached first.
Don't do it, it will ruin your hair because they have to bleach it first and that makes your hair snap. but if you really want it done, go to a proffessional hairdresser.
