NO NO NO don't listen to them! If you want those natural tones to show through try having your hair layered condensed hair always looks darker. Other than that take your stylist outside and show her the color you like if you have virgin hair ( hair not previously colored ) She can achieve this with color only no bleach required.

Sun-In doesn't work on everyone's hair-you might get a pumpkin look. Use a blonde or red shampoo or conditioner- John Frieda has a good line available at Wal-Mart or drugstores to bring out the lighter parts or your locks!

Try lemon juice and get in the sun.

When you're outside (gardening, laying out, at the beach, whatever), take some lemon water mixture and spray it on your hair. One part lemon juice, one part water in a spray bottle that you can get at target, wal-mart, the dollar store, drug store, wherever. It will slightly lighten your hair (wherever the sun hits), and bring out your natural highlights. I wouldn't use anything that has peroxide in it--it'll bleach your hair and turn it orange. Lemon water is less expensive and more natural.

just use some peroxide. Comb it thru and use heat and light to lighten. Stop using when it is as light as you like. Just be careful or you will end up with orange hair.

The only other thing I can think of is sun in but don't use it unless you lemon juice your hair. My hair dresser told me to do that since it fryed my hair.

At Walmart they have this stuff for 'Dark Hair Only' I don't know what brand it is but go down the hair eisle and check it out. I used it to dye my hair from dark brown to really light brown and it worked. But if you have hair past your shoulders get two boxes, you want to saturate it.

When any lightening is done on natural haircolor, you are in actually pulling the natural hair pigment out of the hair shaft. Whether you decide to pull the color out with sun in spray, or hair lightening product, which will have peroxide in it, is almost the same difference. There are hair lightening products on the market that achieve what you what without damaging the hair too much.

Give it a try, you can always darken the streaks back to pretty much your natural hair color. Just make sure that you find a really good hair colorist that understands the concept of haircolor.

Hope this helps.
