That usually happens as a result of bleaching which is why u should tone afterwards. U should use a color over it that has an ash or green base to counter brassiness. Exactly what shade of bleach blonde is it rite now?

It
is almost platinum, it just has that tint of brassiness to it, not much
just a lil bit. I talked to my colorist though and she said not to
colorit again for at least a month or two because we had to lighten it
three times and she really doesn't want to damage my hair anymore than
we already have...My hair isn't dark or anything I have naturally light
blonde hair, I just wanted a nice platinum look .

I think it would be fine use a semi or demi permanent hair color. Look for one in the ashy range. Permanent color obviously wouldn't be a good idea but semi's should be fine on ur hair. If u use a colorgloss tho make sure it is two levels lighter than the color u r aiming for, they tend to come out darker...

You don't need a demi perm color! Just buy a color shampoo or conditioner that's formulated to counteract brassiness. I'd recommend Matrix Biolage Earth Tones color refreshing conditioner - the one made for pale platinum blonde. Ask your colorist. If they don't carry the matrix line, there are other color shampoos/conditioners for this sort of thing!
