I'm in cosmetology, so although I know my options as to what I can do with my hair, I am interested in your guys' input. I had med. brown hair to start and died the top layer a light caramel color(almost a gold blonde) and the bottom layer a dark expresso brown. I currently dyed over the caramel and colored it an almost black golden brown. I have black eyebrows, so the "almost black hair" is slightly overpowering. As well as boring. So I was wondering what your guys' preferences are as to what kind of highlights I should put in addition. what color, how many, how big, how small, etc? Any suggestions are welcomed. ------------- Sara |

What goes best with black is blue. Blue is kind of hard to maintain in your own hair, but it's easy to get some extension highlights put in. -------------

Looks like you have pretty dark hair, so I'm gonna go ahead and say go with copper highlights. Always been a fan. Oh, and chalk up another hottie vote.

I got a peer to slice in some thin highlights,bleach them out and colored over the bleach with a level 7 golden brown. It turned out a honey/carmel color. Then I put on a transparent gold gloss to give it some shine and lock the color in...It lightened up so much, but looks awsome!! i love it!!! if you want some pics, let me know. ------------- Sara |

  The first one is when my hair was caramel, with my (very very dark) roots grown like 3 inches out! That was before I dyed my hair almost black(which, fortunately, I have no pictures of)..And the closeup is the highlights I put in the black...I cant believe how much it lightened it all up. ------------- Sara |
