First of all this color you have a picture of has red pigment and if your highlights are bleach blonde a box color could turn you highlights pink. You realy have to be careful with red color.


If you find a color that is closer to your hair color or level of color. Like a level 5 is a medium brown then a 5R(5 red) or something with a level 5 that has red in it should be fine. Your highlights will eventually be lighter than the rest of your hair because that hair is of course lighter, but also more pourus than the natural color you have because it has been chemically treated. So the color will slip faster on the blond hairs causing it to become lighter.


If you have brown hair and coloring your hair yourself, I just recomment you not going up to lighter levels with red-like strawberry blonde or anything because it will be a mess.


That color on the picture looks to be a 5R-thats your best bet.Dying highlighted hair...?
If an all over color was placed on your hair and you have two tones of color in your air (i.e. the ight brown and blonde) absolutely the blonde will appear slightly lighter than the rest of you hair, although it wont' be a shade of ';blonde'; it may turn more like caramel than the blonde you have now. The hairstyle you have the picture of here is multitonal, not one shade of brown. A stylist who can physically match the color of your hair can better tell you what exactly your hair will turn to be. Have fun it's just hair!
the highlights should look a little lighter !
u should wait 6 months after dying ur hair
highlighted pieces soak in more of the color of the product.
