Hi, I have been coloring my hair with a box dark blonde. I just put on some golden highlights but they look yellow. Can I re-color dark blonde with a box the same day? Or will it get orangey?

Unless u are a natural blonde, the box blonde will not work for u. If you have already blonde highlights, that are a yellow tint, the only kind of color that can go over it would be a darker color. If you want to lighten them up, go to a professional, there is always a chance of gettign orange hair with a box

I am naturally dark blonde. I am just worried that trying to go darker on yellow blonde that I just did, will turn it orange. All of the yellow is on top. And I start school tomorrow so really need to decide if I am going to try this again.

Going darker on yellow blonde isn't recommended sweetie, I know you want to look your best for school, but don't take that chance. The possibility is it will turn orange or it will turn a greenish color. Ive done the box a lot of times, and when you dye your hair from a box, and it comes out horrible its even harder for your stylist to fix because the ammonia a lot of the time is a lot stronger then it should, I would say fight your anxiety and wait
