Should I dye my hair? What are my options?

I have been growing my hair out for the past two years so that I can donate it to cancer. I'm still growing it out because I had layers in my hair, but I really wanna dye my hair. My question is - if I get my hair professionally dyed, will the dye eventually wash out or what? Because you can't donate dyed hair? So really, what are my options here?

I have jet black hair by the way and I want to dye it dark brown. My hair dresser says that because my hair is "Virgin"(never been dyed before), she won't have to use bleach.

    No, it's not going to just wash out. Once hair has been dyed a lighter color, the dye can't fade away, because you've essentially lifted pigment out of your hair in order to dye it, the pigment isn't going to return.

    So, don't do it, if you want to donate to it to cancer.
