HELP!!! i want my hair pink

ok girls, i need help...I went to my hair styler and i wanted to bleach my hair, but i got a strand test first, and he results were horrible!!! It was orange!!! eewww. Like accidental orange. It was really ugly. So i was thankful i didnt dye my hair that color, but, my stylest told me i could strip my hair color and then bleach it. see, what i really wanted to do, was bleach it, then dye it pink because i figured it would look a lot better starting of on a lighter base, so, i wanted to strip my permanent hair color and she told me that i could use some products that are around the house but i forgot what they were!! so i was hoping you guys would give me some suggestions and maybe some heplp like, maybe what those products were if you know what they are...because i really wanted to do something new before the summer ends and my hair is like a dark red (not natural) and i heard that red is hard to get out, and i really want to be able to bleach my hair blonde and it actually looking blonde and not an ugly orange. so, please girls and guys, help me so that i can do it.... please!! im begging you...give me like any other suggestions about waht i could do with my hair...and please include the names of the product and where i miiight find them...thank you soo much
