1. What hair dye should i use?
any time you want to change your hair color to a lighter color than you have, you have to use bleach. which is damaging. its like trying to draw pink over black
2. Hot topic hair dye Questions please?
Neither one will come out in a week. Since you have black hair in order for it to show you have to bleach your hair to lighten it. It will probably come out orange. That's normal. Then put either one (I've used the 2nd one, it's good for like 3 days then fades, then fades weird colors) in your hair and leave it in for the amount of time it says. Apply heat for better color. Then rinse well but do not wash. To take the color out you need to dye it back to black instead of letting it fade, it will just fade back to orange or some other weird color. I did all of this before tons of times.
