You need to remove the artificial pigments in your hair. Then, you can bleach or redye.

If you decide to go brown, you'll have to pre-dye the blonde sections with red (it's called "filling the hair"). Otherwise, your hair will turn greenish, or have a greenish tinge to it.

Hair isn't "alive", and although a lot of colorists recommend waiting, there isn't any scientific reason to think that waiting will do anything. Hair doesn't "get better" over time. If your hair feels reasonable, you can use ColorFix or a similar haircolor remover and recolor today.
