i want to dye my hairrrr
okay, well i have pretty dark brown hair. not black but dark brown. for some reason i reallllly want to dye it blonde, like not bleach but light yellowy blonde. but i also don't want to spend 45 $ to get it professionally done. i've dyed my hair myself before, but it was just like brown and stuff. for this, should i buy two boxes of the same color and then dye it once one night, and then the next night use the other one and dye it again? or should i just get like a reaalllllly light blonde and hope that it cancells out and comes out not as light? hellllp

When you use hair dye, it baiscly puts a layer of color on top of your hair. But, in order to get your hair lighter, there is no alternitive to using bleach. Any product that makes your hair lighter contains bleach. That said, I think that self-bleaching kits are extremely risky. your hair could turn out a huge variety of colors between your dark brown and the dark blonde you want. Plus, with a bleaching kit, its going to be pretty difficult to get all your hair. the hair on the bottom dosnt have to be as dark as on top, (thats how natural blonds look) but you dont just want one thin layer of blonde on top. I think you should definately not use a beaching kit. They seem to not work more than they do work.
I suggest you get if professionally done, but the problem is, i think that may cost you a bit more than 45 bucks, depending on how long and thick your hair is. Whether you get it done professionally or do it your self, remember that your roots will also grow out and need re-dying, and frequently if you want it to look good. I think a good plan would be to get it done by a professional, then try doing your roots by yourself once they need to be done.

Whatever you do, do not bleach your hair and then dye it. bleaching your hair will completely damage it. If you are going to do it at home I would suggest you only go a few shades lighter than your hair or get a highlight kit. If you try to go from dark brown to light blond your hair will turn an orange-y color. Believe me I know from experience. You could go to a cosmetology school or to a vo-tech school and get it done by the students for cheaper.

You can buy bleach and bleach it out, then dye it blonde. Since your hair is dark brown, the bleach will turn it orangish. I've never actually done it, but my friend did to her own hair. If you're scared how it will turn out; just get it professionally done. you can find some cheaper places.
