Tip: Black to Medium Brown Hair Without Bleach

If your hair is naturally black like mine's and you've been wanting it to be a medium brown shade without having to resort to bleaching it completely, here's the solution:
Your prayers have been answered (kinda)
Yes, if you wanna go brown, you have to get blonde hair dye like the one pictured above. If you use brown hair dye, it will hardly make a difference to your hair color. I suggest to pick out a blonde hair dye with ash tones to it to avoid or minimize the chances of having brassy hair.

I used Revlon Colorsilk Dark Ash (#60) and my hair became a nice chestnut brown shade as you can see down below in my 'after' picture.

I'm sure that with lighter shades of blonde, you'll get slightly lighter shades of a medium brown color. Anyway, definitely try it out!

And that is my quick tip for today.
