Hiya how ya doing? I am Leslie or Ms_BeautyExpert on here lol ..

Umm my suggestion and from past exp...

 

I have found Redken Shades EQ lightening crystals work very nicely lifting.. and it at the same time helps restore or preserve the integrity of the hair...

 

Also depending on how light ya wanna go.. THE VERY BEST BLEACH I think or what I have found.. Is.. UP 2 7 from Redken.. that stuff is awesome... My hair is a dark brown level 2/3 natural level and colored the same.. I had that used on my hair to do blonde hi-lites.. and HONESTLY UNTIL I USED THAT PARTICULAR BLEACH I WAS UNABLE TO FIND SOMETHING THAT LIFTED HIGH ENOUGH TO GET ME PRETTY BLONDE HI LITES...

 

Most bleaches I had used outside of "UP 2 7 " From Redken could'nt get  me out of that orangey yucky stage or really brassy.... Up 2 7 lifted me right on out if it nicely and I don't recall my hair feeling to dry after using it either...

 

SO ONE OF THOSE 2 I WOULD SAY FROM MY  PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.

 

Hope that helps.. let us know what ya do!!??
