    You need to add red back into the hair. Here are some links to threads:

    It will be very difficult to get you hair to hold any color. Once the hair is bleached it doesn't hold color well. Therefore, I would recommend that you use a filler first. Use a red based semi permanent color a couple shades lighter than what you actually want. Then, still using a semi permanent ( as this will not further damage your hair even if you have to freshen the color often) and choose the color you actually want. Be prepared to color every 2 to 4 weeks to keep the color you want until your hair grows out. Also, if your natural color is darker than the color you want , a semi will not lighten it, so you would need to match the color with a permanent for your new growth. Hope that helps!
