Highlights on black/brown hair..

My hair is dark brown, but it's that super duper dark brown that almost looks black. I've been thinking of getting a few highlights, but I'm looking for colors..
I don't want anything remotely red. I hate red/reddish. (on me). I was thinking of sort of a light/medium sort of ash brown. Definitely NOT blonde. My hair is way too dark. Can anyone help me find some pics of dark dark brown hair with this sort of highlights? I'm having a hard time....
Thanks for any help.

With your hair being so dark, you might be pretty limited on what they can manage without resorting to bleach in order to lighten more than a couple of levels (which, if you're going for an ash blond, it'd be several levels from dark brown/black).
HATE: plopping, FOTE on wet hair, BRHG
If you don't want anything "red", you're going to have to use bleach, because most people with very dark hair will lift to red long before they lift to lighter ash brown or blonde colors, so don't try to do it yourself with any of those home kits, because you'll get red.
and then you'll be blue.
Thanks. yeah, I know.. I used to be a blonde. ha. That seems like a million years ago. I would never attempt this myself. I only want a few lighter brown streaks, really. Maybe. I really don't know.
I'm just playing around with the idea.
