I have extremely dark brown hair which has been highlighted and dyed few times. Now, I want to dye my hair blonde, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea. Just to give you guys an idea of how I look like, I have very light skin uhh fair complexion? dark brown eyes. Is it a good idea to dye it at home or would going to a salon give better results? Thanks a lot for the help. By the way, do I need to bleach my hair in order to go blonde?

Yes you'll need to bleach it, and absolutely go to the salon. It's just not worth the risk of ruining your hair. Doing a double process at home is very risky business.

Please let us know how it goes.

Yes get it done in a salon, your hair could end up very damaged if you do it yourself.
I'd to bleach my hair too, Post pics if you can.
This is my signature. It's not a very
good signature, but it's a signature
nonetheless.

Most definately take a trip to the salon for your blonding otherwise it could end up a disaster!
Good luck with it, let us know how it goes

I think you should definately wait untill the highlighted bits grow out. Anyway, if you do it yourself,make sure you follow the directions and always do a strand test first.

i have naturally medium/dark brown hair and i've been doing it at home alot and never had any problems. just make sure u leave it on until itz pale yellow. get clairol l'image maxi blonde super(canadian) or l'oreal perfect blondissima creme.... they both worked fine for me. if u get it done at the salon itz going to be hundreds of dollars.
