Hello.. First of all what is your hair color,.. as soon as i no that i can help you.. If your hair is orange that means that you didnt leave the bleach on long enough.. is your roots orange and the ends and shaft ok or is that orange to. Try to be on here at 7:00pm my time I live in cali.. I can help you I just have to see your hair and I cant so I need to see it from you.. You need to tell me everything. Ill help you those purple shampoos are not going to help..

my hair is light blonde, it is not orange. i know that purple counteracts orange and blue counteracts yellow. i just like my blonde to be a cool shade, so I use blue base toner on it, but I would like a shampoo to help tone it as well. Someone told me about blu shampoo at the salon, but I don't know what brand it was.

I think it's the other way around: Purple neutralizes yellow, and blue neutralizes orange, no?

You're right, Jenny.  Color wheel theory. 

AmethystKat...I'm not sure what volume developer you used, but if it was a higher number, that would be more likely to burn your scalp.  Another round of 20 vol bleach will take you to yellow, and if you're really careful to keep it off your scalp, it shouldn't burn.  Also, don't wash your hair too soon before bleaching--the oil helps protect your scalp from the bleach.  Twenty-four hours between shampoo and bleach can really make a difference.  Good luck!

When you bleach your hair only put the bleach on the roots.. If you can get ahold of some paul mitchell bleach use that.. If you send me a paypals I can send you some.. The reason I say paul mitchell is because it is a onscalp bleach.. Make sure what ever bleach you use it says on scalp. try not to ich or wash your hair before you bleach it. You should apply it 1/4" away from the scalp.. dont worry it will swell all the way up.. do not bleach all your hair only the roots.. and to make it a cool blond I would use a PM Shine 9bv blue purple base.. i can send you that to.. that will cut all the orange that you have left dont use anything overe a 20dev on the scalp.. take tiny little sections thats the key..
