Want a change, need ideas

Hi πŸ™‚
I've been dying my hair black for the past 4 months or so, and I like it, but I miss the constant change you can have with colours. So I would like to dye some sort of section colourful again. Was thinking just a Strand, but that might look childish.. So hard to decide.
I'm thinking about AP or blue velvet (that's what I still have), but I dunno what kinda sectioning would work, so that the black can't bleed into it.
Hoping for cool ideas πŸ™‚

Also how would I go about removing the black on that section? Colour B4 and see where it gets me? Most my hair was bleached under all the dye.

Is the black dye permanent? If so you won't have to worry about colour bleed; the AP/BV won't show up on it much and the black won't bleed into the funky colour.

I used to have black hair with the very lop layer, so like an inch section all round my parting, dyed bright. I really liked that. I would try a colour remover on the black a couple of times and see where that leaves you - AP would go over a ginger base.

It's a semi with 1.9%, wella colour touch. It does bleed the first one or two washes after I redid my roots.
Do you have a pic of that that top layer sectioning?
I don't have layers tho, all my hair is the same lenght, so not that sure if it would work that way

Sadly I haven't, it was about 15 years ago! Mine was all one layer too.

I think doing your top section would look cool, in a starburst pattern:

And/or I think dying an inch section framing the whole face looks awesome too, or doing 2 wide panels on each side just above ear level, so the color will peek through

Thanks for all the ideas πŸ™‚ I just remembered Mako Mori from the film pacific rim. She has bright blue tips in the front, I like the look, don't feel too confident it would look as awesome on me though
I think I don't want it to be too hard to redo my roots, I have to do them too often. So some coloured tips would probably easiest, or do I have to be careful with rinsing dye and stuff?
