What color highlights look best on dark hair?

Asked by msmaliah over 2 years ago, 6 answers.

What color highlights look best on dark hair? I have naturally dark brown almost black hair, I want to add highlights to break up the harshness except since my dark hair grow out quickly, I would like something that looks almost natural and not tacky. ...

Any suggestions?

I wouldn't go with any red tones because if you have dark hair already and it grows out it will look tacky. I would go for either a chocolate brown or even two shades lighter because then you won't have to get your roots redone for about 5 months and it will look natural

Just a tone up from your hair colour
HIGHLIGHTS
Lighten up parts with a VERY small amount of bleach...
...VERY SMALL...
