ok. well here goes. first of all, the color you gought is not a bleach.
it is a high lift color. the unfortunate news is that color CAN NOT ilf
color. in other words this blondissima WILL NOT lift out the black. to
put it another way, your hair WILL be black after the dye has
processed. (get the point yet?) my advice would be to go to sally
beauty supply and get wella wellite creamlite and use that. put it on
the black sections only using a hair coloring brush (pick this up at
sally's as well, and youll need a bowl and applicator bottle as well.)
let the bleach process until the black sections have lifted to a brown
similar to the roots. then, depending on what effect you are going for,
you can either use the applicator bottle to apply the bleach to the
roots of your hair, and process up to a pale yelow color (like the
color of the inside of a banana)and then tone it to the desired blond
shade from there (use clairol borne blonde toners, also sold at
sally's), or you can rinse the bleach from the hair, and apply the
desired brown shade. after the bleaching process is complete you should
deep condition (especially if you have bleached to pale yellow and then
toned) now, i have merely given advice on how i would go about this complex transformation. the best advice i could ever give you would be "go to a professional !!!!"  ------------- learn to love what you were born with you can do anything if you set your mindto it (just dont try this with hair,that could turn out bad) |

| Wow, you got REALLY lucky. I'm so glad it turned out good for you. What kind of black dye had you used before? |

Probably not. This is a very different situation. If you want to try this, you should do a strand test before proceeding with each step. ------------- 
Just looking for a few good hair slaves - is that too much to ask? |

| I bleached it awhile back and used toner but the roots turned out orange,so I made it red again. At this point, growing it out would take years. |
