I have a natural black hair because I'm asian. How can I get highlights that will show up in my dark hair?
Can you highlight your hair when its dark? Of course you can! Just don't go platinum blonde. You can put a honey brown on or red. Something light and not too bright for summer. If you want them to really show up, you could do bleach highlights and put color on. But, be careful not to chose a color that will show that base in that color. You could be choosing a nice red, but it could show up pink. Also, be careful with too much bleaching. You can make your hair very dry with too much bleach. If you don't like the color in the highlghts after they are done, just dye your whole head.
Good Luck!

Can you highlight your hair when its dark? yes you actually find highlights at a drugstore like walgreens if your doing it on your own that are specially formulated for dark hair, DO NOT get the kind that says "vibrant" and "Will show up vibrant in any hair" cause it will show up very well.
If you're getting it proffessionally done, ask your hairdresser, they can not only tell you what they think will look good in your hair but more often than not can actually give you an idea of what it will look like.
Can you highlight your hair when its dark? Hi all you need to do is use a 12% peroxide with the bleach to use on your hair. I would recommend you try Bblone highlight kit as it already has the 12% peroxide which is use to hightlight really dark hair, I would recommend leaving the bleach on the highlights for 2 hours or as long as you can as the longer you leave it the better result you will have if you take it off to early you will have orange or yellow highlights not the blonde you would want. If you havent previously coloured your hair with a dark colour I dont see why you would have a problem getting the blonde result you want if you leave it on for ages. Dont listen to peole when they say it stops working after a period of time as with peroxide and bleach this isnt the case.
If all else fails and you decided not to do a home highlight. The go to a really good hairdressers as they highlight peoples hair all the time even asian peoples hair so they now which voloume of peroxide they will need. It will cost a bit but it will be worth it if you want the perfect highlights.

Can you highlight your hair when its dark? I am Asian too with black hair.
If this is your first time, I suggest you have it done professionally.
Once, you've been once or twice, you will have observed
how it's done and you will have the confidence to experiment
yourself.
There is nothing worse than a self-coloured hair when you don't know where to start.
My black hair looks good with red highlights.
The next time I tried 2 and that's red and copper.
At the moment, I have burgundy and copper.
Gradual, I find is best.
Hope you find the right decision.

Can you highlight your hair when its dark? with care a good hairdresser could put in a dark blonde caramel highlight but i'd recommend a few broad streaks for dramatic effect. lighter colour could look orangy and lots of streaks will dry and damage more of your hair. if you put them underneath your see them when you put up your hair and the regrowth will not look as bad and you won't have to re-do them so often.
Can you highlight your hair when its dark? Strong advice, if this is the first time you do this then please please go to a professional hairdresser! For dark hair you can have 'lowlights' put through which are a bit like highlights but the colours tone much better with dark hair. My sister has pretty much black hair and had some nice copper coloured lowlights put in and they really made her hair 'come to life' and added depth. Good luck. Again, don't try it at home!!!!
