    Hello!

    What don't you like about your hair now? Is it because it looks too yellow?

    Before you dye it again, give it a break and if you can, go to your local beauty store and get some packets of deep conditioner. Just to get your hair back to a healthier place. I've bleached my hair several times in a row before and it was breaking apart.

    Also remember that processed hair opens up the cuticle and makes it more porous.
    Think of it as a sponge, any color that you choose will be "grabbed" more so than undamaged hair.
    You will have to be very careful, I would even suggest having a stylist who is well versed in color do the job.
    Not to mention the risk of breakage as mentioned above.
