I agree with the ladies OP. Do not do anymore chemicals in your hair for a while. You need to undergo some serious hair therapy for at least 2-3 months to get your hair back from the trauma.
Only a very few people's hair can survive double processing. I know you love the blonde look but you might seriously have to consider trying something else.
One thing I used to do is put in track of a different color to shake things up. You ever tried it?
Don't lift any more color right now............you need intensive treatments (protein and moisture) to save that hair. Did you do your own relaxer on the day you posted? If so, wash your hair again with neutralizing poo, and DC with a protein/moisture combo (sebastian 2 + 1, ORS Replenishing pak, etc) with heat. Protect with a product like infusium leave in, and set, cool dry. How long is your hair right now? How do you usually style it?
Until you get your hair back on track, you may need to embrace your "inner brunette diva", because you really should not lift any color right now.

I think bleach will make it worse, I've read that it's very dangerous to apply other chemicals (ie relaxers) ontop of bleach. I'm not a relaxer pro but I believe tha best thing to do would be to let your hair heal/repair, keep it moisturized (try Humectress Con) and let it grow out and depending on the amount of damage, you may have to cut it off once it grows out, but I could be wrong.

i've been bleaching my hair since i can remember and decided to try a relaxer on it. i tried the loreal one and the results were amazing and then the next time round tried a different one and my hair is a wreck! lots of breakage, and now a dull brown/brassy colour.
dont know what the best thing is to do! i miss being a nice blonde but too scared to go back to my hair dresser to get her to highlight it as she'd see the mess my hair is in! :(
how do you repair hair from a bad relaxer? and is there any way i can put bleach in it?
