Blonde highlights on dark brown hair?

Well i've had exactly the same problems and i have dark brown medium thick type hair, sometimes it would come out orange sometimes it would come out nice and blonde.....And recently i have started using the SCHWARZKOPF nordic blonde super highlighting kit and it is for medium blonde to medium brown hair....you can get it from quality save(home bargains) and wilkinsons(this is the cheapest store to get it from) its about 鎷?.00 at wilkinsons, 鎷?.00 at quality save and dearer in all other stores like boots, superdrug etc.. as you'd expect. Any how i really rely on this kit and i think its really good you can either do it the cap way or use the little brush to put fine highlights in...but i'd recommend you use the cap first and then put the extra highlights in if needed...And i personally think its really good... i have blonde on the top(about half of my head) and brown underneath....Hope everything goes well for you and if you decide not take my advice then maybe its best you go to the hair dressers and have it done there, even though it will cost a lot more than a streaking kit....Good Luck Any way x =D

Did you use just bleach or did you try a frosting kit or highlight kit? You do have to leave it on long enough for the color to change.

At this point, I think you need to go to the hairdressers and get it fixed. Orange is not a good look...lol

Sometimes very dark hair just has too much pigment in it and it won't lighten up enough. But my guess it's the timing that's off.

Good luck

First of all, you definitely need a professional for this to work.

Ask for foil highlights

You can mix two colors, such as a red and a golden to get a more three dimensional look, also looks a bit more natural.

Ask them to do it in fine segments, not chunky

Don't bleach your hair, it will damage it!!!!

Expect to spend around 70-80 dollars for a good foil

Then add a cut or trim and tip....

Yes, you will look great, I'm sure of it :D

You're going too light, opt for reddish highlights instead and it will look more natural. Tiger stripes on dark brown hair never look nice.
