Just make sure the blond is not to brassy (to golden). Us the "blonde" only as a highlight and mix it with several diffrent shades of browns.

i bought bags of 4/30 for the base and then a few bags of 30/144 for the highlight. 144 is like a strawberry blonde, not a cold tone like a platinum blonde. going from 4 to 30 to 144 looks like a nice color flow when mixed together.

i installed a test braid of 4/30 into my hair and one of 4/30/144 mix just to see.

ooooh i'm excited. :)
 
Ah gotcha.

I really like what she's doing. But it is a very extreme look.

i say go for it. heck, it's summertime, and i think it would be better to do it now than in the winter. as long as it's around these color schemes, i'm all for it.

I say go for it..... Ive done it numerous times..... love it...
 
the key is to let the braider know what you want and where you want it mixed. one time i said i wanted "highlights" and it just ended up looking like a hot mess. a different braider did a great job of mixing the hair in and it looked AMAZING
 
The past two times I have mixed blonde in with my braids and did a two tone. The back/bottom half is dark brown/black mix and the top/crown is blonde/darkbrown mix. I like how it turns out and I have always gotten lots of compliments on it. I would just find what best suits you.
