If your hair is darker than a light brown or blonde, it is going to be a little harder to find the right highlights for your hair. It will be necessary for the stylist to start by bleaching out the pieces that you wish to highlight. Once these darker pieces have been washed of color, they can be treated with the color you have chosen for highlights.
