Hi, I'm a 43-year old white female and my hair is dyed black. My stylist suggests that I get honey highlights on my black hair, but I don't know if it would look natural and nice.. Any input, ideas or experiences would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Is your hair completely black as in blue-black or is it deep, dark brown. I think on black, black hair it would not look natraul but on dark brown would look very good and would complement your base color. In my opinion, that is.

no, I don't think honey highlights would look good... DARK DARK RED/burgundy would look AWESOME though, and it would blend better...

I don't think pale highlights look very natural on dark hair. Brown would probably do best for looking more natural, but what I think actually looks coolest is a bright, Ariel-like red. Red like that isn't natural on anyone, but it definitely looks good, anyway.
More awesome than a manatee!
