If I'm not mistaken you can use a lifter. It's based on shades and will lighten your hair up to 5 or 9 times the color then you could use blonde dye, unless of course you are going for the extreme blond then you might have to use peroxide, also not very good for the hair. Call your local Beauty Supply shop, they're normally very helpful.

You might be able to achieve subtle blonde highlights without bleaching. You could try putting fresh lemon juice in your hair and laying in the sun... I'm not sure about the beer thing though. If you want a platinum blond look though, you'll have to go to a salon. You can't dramatically lighten hair without bleaching it first.

Does anybody know how to blonde hair without bleach?

During blonding, hair color goes through some or all of the following stages of lightening:

1) Black 2) Brown 3) Red 4) Orange

5) Gold 6) Yellow 7) Pale Yellow

The darker your current hair color, the more stages your hair color must be lightened through to achieve a blonde result. If your hair color is very dark, you may not be able to lighten to the blonde stages with one application.

For the Best Blonding Results:

Apply the Blonding product to dry hair that is free of styling product build-up. If hair has build-up, shampoo one day prior to lightening. Do not shampoo immediately before blonding, as your scalp has natural oils that help protect it.

Hair treated with henna, gradual color-restorers, or metallic dyes: Wait until your hair has grown out and the colored areas have been trimmed away before blonding.

Do not use on hair that has been treated with permanent color or on hair that has been permed or relaxed. Uneven blonding or breakage may result.

Haircolor Levels of Lightness and Tones

Haircolor comes in different levels of lightness and tones: light blonde, medium blonde or dark blonde. Pay close attention to the level descriptors on the haircolor package.

Haircolor (blonde, red, brown or black) is available in warm tones (Warm shades), cool tones (Ash shades) or a balance (Neutral or Natural shades like light or medium browns). The unique tones of a shade add a special dimension to your hair color.

When choosing a shade, don't assume that the haircolor shown on the package is the color result you will get. The picture only shows the color you're adding to your current hair color.

Do check out the Shade Selector Chart on the package and locate your "starting color." The chart shows you approximately what color will result from adding your chosen shade to your starting hair color.

ABCs of Blonde

It's time to get enlightened on the basics of going blonde 鈥?easily, effortlessly. While you might have a dream shade in mind, there are several key factors you'll need to consider. Perhaps the most important part of lightening your hair is knowing that it may change several shades before becoming blonde. For example, if you have dark hair, it will go from red to orange to gold, then finally blonde. And if you are already coloring your hair, especially darker, that will also have an impact on your final result.

Blonding Simplified

Subtle blonding

Stay within two shades of your starting color.

Choose an ash shade to help minimize reds and brassiness, resulting in cool lightening.

If you choose a golden shade, your result will have a warmer/redder look to it 鈥?we call it warm lightening.

Bolder Blonding

High lift blonding can lighten your hair up to four shades lighter than your starting color.

A great choice for starting colors of light brown and lighter. If your hair color is darker than light brown, your results will be reddish.

As with subtle blonding, ash shades will reduce red/gold tones, while golden shades will increase red/gold tones.

Boldest Blonding

The most dramatic change of all can be made with bleach blonding, because it lightens hair more and in a shorter period of time than high lift blonding.

Unlike subtle and high lift blonding, bleach blonding cannot increase or decrease the amount of red/gold tones generated.

Also bleach blonding is NOT recommended for gray, permanently waved or relaxed hair

Here are some key points to remember when coloring your hair with Permanent (Level 3) Haircolor:

DO read the product instructions carefully.

DO a skin allergy test before you color, even if you've colored your hair several times without a problem.

DO a Strand Test to make sure you know exactly how much time is needed to color your hair to the desired outcome.

DO perm first if perming and coloring. Then wait 1 week and 1 shampoo before coloring.

DON'T apply haircolor over highly lightened, double processed, frosted or henna hair.

DON'T use on facial hair.

DON'T save any unused color that has been mixed with developer.

Fire Up Your Hair Color With Highlights 锟?br> Go soft and subtle. Bold and vibrant. A little of both all over your head. Highlights and other dimensional looks can turn any hair color into a work of art.

Hints for Highlighting Hair

If your hair color is medium to light brown, add glints of gold throughout your hair on the tips, on a few strands or in golden chunks.

Head Mapping

Plan your highlights: Just the top of the head? A few tendrils on the sides, all over the head, or just the bangs?

Brunette Beauty

Brunettes look particularly fabulous with medium-dark blonde highlights. To achieve this look:

Highlight hair to a medium-golden blonde using a Clairol lightening product

Rinse, shampoo and towel dry

Haircolor Must Dos 锟?br> Read the product instructions carefully from beginning to end.

Do a skin allergy test. You may have an allergic reaction to haircolor, which can develop even after you've colored several times without a problem. Always do a skin allergy test 48 hours before each color application. Please follow the instruction insert included in each box for details.

Results: If no redness or irritation appears after 48 hours, proceed with coloring your hair. If any redness, burning or itching occurs, you may be allergic and must not use the product.

If you have any questions regarding an allergic reaction, call the Clairol Expert Color Consultants at 1-800-CLAIROL (1-800-252-4765).

Take a Strand Test to determine optimal timing results. Because the finished color is a combination of your current hair color and the haircolor shade you add, a strand test helps you know how much time it takes to get the color you want. Follow the instructions included in your haircolor kit.

Time to Re-color 锟?br> Your hair looks its best when haircolor is fresh. When you see new hair growth at the roots or overall washed-out color, it's time to reapply your haircolor. Check the back and top of your head, not just the front.

Here's when you can expect to re-color:

Semi-Permanent (Level 1) Haircolor (lasts 6-12 shampoos). Take a good look after your sixth shampoo. When your haircolor starts to look washed-out or gray begins to show through, it's time to re-color.

Demi-Permanent (Level 2) Haircolor (lasts through 28 shampoos). If you shampoo every day, begin checking after four weeks. Re-color when your hair color looks washed out or when gray is reappearing.

Permanent (Level 3) Haircolor and double-process blondes. Four weeks after hair coloring, check for new growth at your temples and around your hairline. Do a re-touch or root application when 1/2-inch of new hair growth shows, usually about 4-6 weeks.

Highlights and other dimensional effects. Typically, you only need to re-color every 3-4 months. Highlighting more frequently may make you blonder than you'd like.

Fix Uneven Hair color

If your hair color looks darker on the shaft and ends than it looks at the roots, you're over-coloring the already-colored hair. You need to do a root application, not an all-over-the-head application. Next time roots appear, color the roots only. Don't apply haircolor to the rest of your hair. Soon your hair color will look more consistent.

Root Application As your hair grows, new hair appears at the roots, close to your scalp. This growth needs to be colored to match the rest of your hair. If you're using any Demi-Permanent (Level 2) Haircolor or Permanent (Level 3) Haircolor that is different from your natural hair color, it is best to retouch using the method below. This assures even color, roots to ends. If you are a double-process blonde or have highlights, you should read and follow the instructions on the package.

Part your hair into four sections: left back, right back, left front, right front. If you start with dry hair, the four sections will be easier to separate. Use a plastic clip to hold each section in place.

Put on your gloves and mix haircolor according to the package directions.

Touch the nozzle to your scalp and squeeze haircolor onto the roots by going between each section and down the center part. If you need to, use your fingers to spread the haircolor across the roots. Continue applying haircolor section by section until all of your roots have been colored. Set aside the remaining haircolor to use for the rest of your hair in Step 5.

Relax. Sip a cup of tea and read a magazine while the color works on your roots. Set your timer for five minutes short of your usual timing. When the buzzer rings...

Apply the remaining haircolor to the rest of your hair for the last five minutes of processing. This will refresh your ends and give you beautiful, vibrant, consistent hair color. Follow the instructions on the package for rinsing and conditioning.

To retouch highlighted hair, apply lightener to new growth area (be careful not to overlap onto previously colored hair). When desired lightness has been achieved, shampoo and rinse.

Good Advice

Your "starting" hair color (the color on your hair right now) + the new shade = the final color.

A strand test lets you preview the color before coloring your whole head.

Wear an old button-down shirt. It's easy-off for the shower!

Use white towels, which are easy to bleach if stains occur.

Put a little moisturizing cream around your hairline to keep haircolor off of your skin.

Rub talcum powder on your hands so gloves slide on and off easier.

Use a timer so processing time is accurate.

Start timing after applying haircolor, not before.

Use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe up spills on household surfaces.

Don't chuck those gloves. You'll need them to check color or, when retouching, to work color through your hair.

Hair bleaching

Hair bleaching had a big resurgence in popularity after Marilyn Monroe became a cultural icon. Usually this is a two-step process. First the hair is bleached and then a hair toner is applied. This is quite rough on the hair. It is also a time-consuming process. Expect to spend at least an hour in the hair salon every 2-3 weeks for hair color touch-ups. On brunette hair, it is particularly hard to keep up as well as being hard on the hair. If your skin tone is olive or dark it will look very unnatural.

After the process the hair is so fragile that extra care needs to be taken in blow drying or curling with a curling iron. Keeping it short is probably the best way to go, as you can cut off damaged or split ends often.

At home or in the hair salon?

You will get consistently better results leaving hair coloring to professional colorist. A good hair stylist will be able to pick out the hair colors that work best with your skin tones. Application can be tricky also. Your hair porosity will determine how long colors should be left on. Even touching up roots can be tricky. Almost all hair will benefit by using a clarifying shampoo before coloring.

I realize some of you just don't have the time or money to spend at a hair style salon and will decide to hair color at home. If you do decide to color your at home by yourself with a store bought hair product , remember that the actual hair shade you will achieve will vary from the picture on the box. I would recommend following the directions exactly, and taking the time to do a test to determine if you will get the result you expect before any damage is done.

The perfect hair color for you

Whatever type of hair color you opt for, choosing the proper range of shades鈥攚arm or cool鈥攊s the key. The right hair color shade will brighten up your hair style . . . and your life.

What is the most basic principle of color theory applied to hair? It's choosing between warm and cool shades鈥攁nd with the dizzying variety of hair colors available, choosing can sometimes be confusing. The best way to make pleasing hair color choices is to determine whether natural coloring鈥攈air, eye, and skin tones鈥攊s in the warm or cool range of colors. Answer these questions, or better yet, have your best friend give you her opinion, which is likely to be more accurate:

Deep brown or black-brown (Cool)

Golden brown (Warm)

Gray blue or dark blue (Cool)

Green, green blue or turquoise (Warm)

Hazel with gold or brown flecks (Warm)

Hazel with white, gray or blue flecks (Cool)

My skin is:

Brown with pink undertone (Warm)

Brown with golden undertone (Warm)

True olive (most Asians and Latinos) (Cool)

Medium with no color in cheeks (Cool)

Medium with faint pink cheeks (Cool)

What were your answers

Did you check mostly cools? If so, your natural tones are in the cool spectrum. Mostly warms? Then you're naturally "warm."

Cool

Naturally cool people should avoid gold, yellow, red and bronze tones, which have a tendency to make you look sallow and drawn. The best hair color shades, depending on your skin tone, are shiny raven-wing blacks, cool ash browns, and cool blondes in shades ranging from mink to platinum and icy white. You're fortunate to be able to wear many exciting "unnatural" colors . . . lipstick reds, burgundies, and orchids, for a more daring look.

Warm

Naturally warm people should avoid blue, violet, white and jet-black hair, which will seem to "wash out" your natural high hair color. Depending on your skin tone and your preference, you'll find that deep chocolate, rich golden browns, auburn, warm gold, red highlights, and golden blond shades enhance your "sunny" look. Hair weaving and hair highlighting are great ways to add warm tones to your hair color鈥攁nd natural-looking corals, oranges and reds are dazzling on you!
