Boy did I srew up!!!

I had long naturally dark auburn hair (all one length). To please my boyfriend, I tried bleaching it blond for the Summer. I used a 40v hair bleach and a plastic bag. An hour later I took off the bag and about 50% of my hair. I have tried getting it back to dark auburn so it could grow out... but the brown color (they cannot put red back in it) does not stick well to the blond. So now, 9 months later, I have 2 1/2" hairs all over my head that don't fit in with the other lengths, so it looks chopped. Furthermore, the 2 1/2 inces are dark auburn and the rest is a dirty light brown color. I cannot chop it off or my hair will be 2" short all over. What should I do? I have NEVER had such a bad hair experience in my life. HELP!!!

It sounds like you don't have much choice but a haircut. What about a chic layered shoulder length cut? Then your short pieces would blend a little better, and you don't have to shave your head! And just for future referance, NEVER use anything stronger than 30 volume peroxide with bleach powder, or leave it on longer than 45 minutes. Good luck!
