I'm half filipino/Mexican my hair is dark brown about a level 3, level 1 is considered black and I have about a level 10 pale blonde highllights in my hair.Supposly people say you should get about 2 to 3 shades lighter than your base (lowlights) when you get highlights to make it look (natural) well in my opinon anyone with dark hair and lightens it I know and it doesn't look (natural) so that saying is pretty much stupid.Basicaly I am thinking a person with dark hair to make it blend best get 2 to 3 shades lighter if you want the sunkissed look.
No you won't look dumb personaly if you like the color thats all that matters to you.I have olive color shades and anything orange or reddish blonde blends to much with my skin tone so I prefer the cool tone blonde shades.
If you want Beyonce hair color she has been orange, yellow orange and carmeal hair tones. Whichever haircolor you have (highlights) try to do your roots only. don't overlap. I'm thinking the salon did it did she use bleach was it white, bright blue or lavender color? You might want to ask her what she used before trying to attempt doing it yourself
