I wear extentions, and my natural hair is jet black, the larger part of my extentions will remain jet black, but i wanted to add color! Mostly I want a natural looking color, but i'm open to all suggestions!! If a picture of myself is needed here you go!

  1. brown highlights would look good.  my hair is black and i have some brown in it and it looks cool


  2. you can add some brwon highlights or goldish highlights


  3. try burgundy, brownish, and keep a little of the jet black i seen how the colors look mixed cause my mommy's hair is like that and i think it looks fabulous :)  

  4. for a natural color, i would say a darker blonde, or a red shade.

    for a more exciting color, purple would be very cool in black hair. (:

  5. you have beautiful hair! I think you sohould put some light blonde highlights through out your hair to brighten it up a bit.

  6. I think maybe like a gold colour, or if you want to go a little crazy, then maybe like a red or something :)

    Maybe like this? :P

  7. Purple, red, pink, although I think red is kinda overdone, a dark purple would look very pretty IMHO

  8. i love your hair color!

    i would reccomend reddish or carmel highlights. not blonde or anything cus it would look to different i think just a little bit lighter highlights

  9. One thing I have to say is you are very pretty, you are lucky, you'd look great with any color.  If you are gutsy What you need to do is hi-lite your hair, only the natural part. As long as it's not previously colored you can lift the hi-lites to a few shades lighter with bleach then use a really pretty color by clairol number 56r. It's called Cinnamon.  It's a medium reddish brown color.  It's hard to explain but color has levels 1-10.  10 is the Lightest, but since your hair is black it contains a bluish tint in and blue takes away shine.  The best thing to do is to add the opposite which is red.  Any color red.  When your hair stars to lift it will go through orange fazes.  It will need to get at least to level 3 0r 4 to add something different to it.  If you go to a stylist have them give you a weave with foil so that you can get it put in the places you want.  Then when that's over have them add the 56r.  I think It's a level 3.  It will look hot.  If you don't want to bleach your hair and only want lighten it a little use the 56r to weave into your hair with a 30 volume peroxide to lift it easier.  have them leave it in for 20-30 minutes.  You'll love it.  I promise. Sorry for the long explanation.  Hope It's helps.  You could probably find the color online at clairol.com.  or some other beauty supply online if their are no sally beauty supplies near you.

  10. well golden brown will help. your really pretty and get some longer extenstions

  11. Golden brown. pretty :D

  12. omgosh..ok this blue is pretty!! is my favorite color

    or a high lighter type of pink or a dark purple..

  13. With your skin tone, a natural color would be a dark brown, with some reddish brown highlights. Your weave looks okay, but it's way too dark and it doesn't look natural. Very few people have natural black hair. It would be best to consult a professional so that you can actually see the color options against your skin. Also, they can help you choose the right color.

  14. Well I think blue would work well, for a kind of cute anime touch, and a reddish brown could also look nice. (I mean these in streaks or highlights).
