    Since you used a permanent black hair color, you will need to use a hair lightening product to lift the color a couple of shade lighter. You can use a 30-volume peroxide developer with your desired hair color in equal parts to achieve results. To avoid red/orange tones, choose a neutral or ash hair color.
