Argh I'm so fed up with dying my hair. I've dyed it about 6 times in the last 10 days or so. Including bleach. I'm still not happy with the result and I'm so fed up about it! I should have just not done any of this and just left it brown.

I bleached my light hair again today and put a light ash toner on it but it's a very light blonde but I still feel it is yellow. I HATE IT. I have seen other peoples hair this similar colour and it looks very cool, I'm wondering whether it's just because I don't have the confidence to pull it off :(

HELP ME, WHAT SHALL I DO? I'm not going to yet but if I was to dye it back to brown how should I do this. I don't want green hair.
THANKS

Some people just aren't meant to have white blonde hair. I've been trying for two years to get that perfect colour, but it always comes out with yellow/orange in it. I've spent hundreds of dollars going to salons and nothing works. Now my hair is very damaged. Just stick to having brown hair. It's healthier for your hair , it's a lot easier to maintain and it's cheaper. Since you've dyed your hair about six times recently I suggested you go to a salon to get it corrected and then dye it brown because otherwise you know you will end up with green hair. Goodluck!

Buy some of that purple shampoo in the meantime. It gets rid of the brassy color (that yellow/orange you're talking about). On of my friends dyed her hair blonde from brown and it turned out orange so that's what she did.

Awww I feel for you, when you want a desired look but end up wishing you hadn't touched your hair.
You could try the purple shampoo, didn't work for me but I've heard it has for others.
I would urge you to leave your hair for a couple of weeks to let it settle, in this time the colour may fade and you might like it, that's what happened to me.
If you don't then use a really ashy shade. This may go grey but will fade after several washes.
If you end up getting it brown again, go to the hairdressers! They will have to put a red tone on then brown so you don't go green. I wouldn't recommend doing this yourself.
Good luck =]
