Going to the Salon: Should I bleach my hair first?

I'm getting this hair color (silver ombre) with streaks of teal mixed in! I'm very excited for it.

What I am wondering now is should I bleach my hair first before going in? I currently have red hair and that is the hardest color to get out. I have two boxes of bleach. I don't want to spend all day in the salon bleaching my hair or worse, have to be told I have to come back to finish dying it because I want my hair done for my first day back at work.

I would wait and let a professional do to help cut down on damage to my hair.

I'd let a professional do it, then again I'm also scared to do that myself. I have black and purple hair currently and next year I plan to go silver and blue, I know it'll need to be bleached.

let them do it at the salon. It would be easier for them to coordinate the different chemicals required.
