    Is it red tones or more orangey tones you're trying to eliminate? If it's orange tones, you could try Goldwell Colorance (which is a demi-permanent color) in #6A, which is dark ash blond. It has a blue-ish base which would counteract orange. If its red you are trying to get rid of, you could mix this with something with a gold base like a 8G or use mix the 6A with some Goldwell Gold Mix (the gold and blue undertones mix to create a green undertone, which counteracts red).
