    Over bleached hair
    I was trying to lighten the front of my hair, I wanted about 1" thick blond streaks in the front. I usually bleach with a cap, but this time i thought I would just try to paint the two front blond strips in. Anyway, these 1" strips turned out to be about 4" wide, and are totally white, with some hint of red. It's too much, the color is very strange. I would like to know how to fix this. I was going to dye it a darker blond, still faily light, but not this weird color I have now. Should I only do the strips, should I use a cap, or should I just dye my whole head. Could someone help me please!

    Your hair has turned to different shades because of uneven application.
    You could try fix it at home but you you really can't afford to have another disaster. Best to leave colour corrections to the professionals.
    Please do visit a reputable colourist.

    Heyy. I would probably get a light/mid blonde and dying over the bleached strips. I would recommend Nice 'n' Easy. Make sure you get a neutral shade as ash will go grey and warm will go yellow. They have a colour indicator on the side which will indicate what shade it is.
    This should fix it.
    Good Luck =]
