    You usually go to the hairdresser and she uses a formula and dies your hair and then puts the colour you want but that's pretty expensive
    If you want to do it on your own you got to choose lighter colour don't choose blond though it won't work and every time you die it lightin it and it would work

    Don't put light colour right away (such as blonde)

    If you don't want to dye it because it damages hair, spray coconut oil (not sun tan lotion) in your hair and let the sun work at it. This is the natural way that all the surfer girls let their hair get golden. But the more concentrated the coconut oil the faster your hair gets lighter.

    I do not recommend using an at-home hair color to make your hair lighter. This will result in a brassy or unpleasant color. If you have dark hair and want to go light without red/orange shade, it requires a double process. You will need to lighten your hair with bleach and then deposit the desired color. You should consider getting this process done professionally.
