    Oh dear, quite a lot I think!
    Did you have any dye on your hair before you tried to lighten it?

    Could you go to the chemist (with a hat on if needed) they might be able to help?

    Well I it was dirty blonde with highlights that I tried to lighten up.
    Everything came out right just the top of my head. How can I make
    The tone go down? I'm so stressed.

    Don't stress - it will be OK!
    I suppose you could put a darker tone of blonde on but it might not be worth the risk!

    It will have done the top of your head because it will be new hair and won't have the previous dye on it.

    Is there no way you can visit a salon?

    Well I don't have the money for a salon until
    Friday but I can't wait that long.

    I wonder what will happen if I put a medium blonde
    On top?

    I understand. I know it will cover it up because its a darker color. But it's a risk.

    If your roots came out orange, you can use an ash-base hair color to neutralize the orange tones. Be sure to choose a color that's close to your original color. Leave the color mixture on your hair for ten minutes then rinse it out.
