How do you go from brunette to blonde? What are the pit falls things to look out for? How blonde can you go?What shade should you expect to achieve from a brunette level 4to5? I raise this questions because skin tone, eye colour. also play a role when switching colour.
Brunette to Blonde can certainly have it's challenges. Having decided how blonde you want to go you then have to decide on. All over colour or highlights? If your hair is Naturally Brunette level 4 to 5 then the lighter you go, the more issues of warmth will come in to the equation. Also roots or regrowth have to be considered.

Brunette natural lifted 4 levels still very warm. |
As you lift your hair the pigment it contains is exposed. So as you lift from natural level the first tone you will see is red. Second level would be red with orange hue. Third level would be orange. Forth level orange yellow. This amount of lift, that being 4 levels can be reached with high lift colour and using the pigment it contains to control tone. Any thing lighter than four levels will require Pre-lightening.
Consider what shade you want. Maybe highlights and low lights would give you a lighter but more natural look. Lots to consider.
I strongly suggest a professional consultation before embarking on this. It's not just slap on the shade indicated on the box.

If your hair has been coloured to a Brunette shade and your wanting to go Blonde you really need help you could end up with a hair night mare. many issues when doing this procedure. Be warned you could end up with yellow roots orange mid lengths and red ends!! Consultation honest advise good service from a knowledgeable Styling and technical team.
Some the issues raised, have covered in past blogs and topic's Lift deposit,Tone, highlighting and Blonde looks feel free to look at back issues or ask question via blog contact.
Considering how light to go can take some thought. Hold light swatches against your skin, hey try wigs you will be amazed how skin colour, eye colour. Changes when you lighten your hair.
Also make up and indeed choice of clothing colour shade and style might have to be thought about.
Good luck be brave but consider it harder to go light and get the right shade than going back to natural or darker!
How dark? How blonde? much to Consider. Just remember skin colour, eye colour, Pigment and tone.
have your stylist explain this to you.
