Hair reference HELP

Mandi

This is my hair ((( I'm a natural brunette ))) but stupid me dyed it permanent black ((( sigh ))) and I did semi red dye and it's fading out ( not worried about that ))) but now I'm wanting the black out and was told it would take multiple sessions to get back to brunette each session would cost $100 ( keep that in mind) so I was thinking would honey blonde be ok my beautician said she could do honey blonde in 1 session at $100 ( 1 session is my limit with cost) refuse to spend multiple$100 to get back to my natural color so thinking blonde would be ok and once my roots/natural color grows in it would be a ombre so this is my color now

What I was thinking ((( yes my hair is naturally curly I have a love and hate relationship with my curls 😂
