Yes. Mix the bleach with 20 or 30 volume cream developer, apply to hair, and keep an eye on it. When the hair has lifted to the desired shade, shampoo immediately and follow with a good conditioner.

Can bleach lighten your dark brown hair but not make it white?

You can make dark brown hair lighter brown but it's not done just with bleach.

I believe so. It will not turn your hair blonde of course but the color might turn out blonder. I am not sure though.

Do you have to bleach brown hair to make it blonde?

Basically....yes. If your hair is very dark then there is no other way except to bleach it. There are some hair dyes that contain bleach in them as well as color so you don't end up with some crazy orange result. Some dies will lighten your color nicely, but it won't be blond. If you have light brown hair and have never dyed it before, find the lightest blond hair dye and try that--it should lighten your color to at least a dirty blond.
