Racheylou, I've read your previous posts, and it seems to me that you've been trying to go blonde. I've tried to explain to you that in order to go from dark brown to a decent blonde shade, minus the brassy tones, it will require bleaching your hair to the level of lightest you want, and then deposit the desired color. I've also mentioned to you to get your hair done professionally, but you've decided to try to go blonde on your own, and now your hair is orange. A darker blue-base ash hair color will fully neutralize the orange tones in your hair. If you use an ash blonde color, it will make your hair an ash blonde shade with a hint of orange in your hair.

You can use a medium or a dark ash blonde hair color to neutralize the orange tones. Keep in mind that you may still see a hint of orange tones in your hair when using any ash blonde shade over orange hair. Hopefully, you will let a trained hair stylist fix your hair and achieve your desired color.

Hi:)

I would say medium or dark ash blonde.
My friend had the same problem a while ago, and her hairdresser gave her a dark ash colour that got all the yellow out!
It's never a very good idea to home-bleach dark hair, but you probably figured that out by yourself, didn't you? ;)
Seeing as your hair is originally dark, a darker ash blonde would probably suit your skin tone better than a light one as well, and at the same time a darker colour has better potential of removing the underlying yellow tone.
Good luck to you!
