Hi ... Need some help ...
 
I am growing my hair out from about a number 2 clip. Whilst growing it i have bleached it. And when the roots came through i re-bleached it, approx. 3 times with a quick blue powder and 40 volume, as my hair is very stubborn and wont turn to a platinum. It has really grown to where the tips where just bleached.
 
And so i redid it, but now there is a yellow tint to it, and i am not sure if it is just the roots that are yellow, making the tips that were white look yellow too.
 
The problem is it is really now over bleached and quite damaged. I have been using a deep conditoner and just started using a "leave in - conditioner" too. The tips that have had the most bleach are breaking off here and there, not a lot, the roots are still strong.
 
But now i have this yellow tint which i do not like at all and want to know if there is a less abrasive way of lifting it futher?
 
If not am i able to add a brown or dark blonde color too it without damaging it futher?
 
Thanks, I appreciate your guys knowledge in this matter ...

Hmm,well I'm going to reccomend a few things I always reccomend on this site.Get some Nexxus hair emergencee or some neutral protein filler.These will really help with the damage.
I think for now,until your hair is in a bit better shape you shouldnt try to go lighter. I would get a toner that may add some color to it and make look better (even if it's not really EXACTLY what you want right now) and just a toner shouldnt really damage hair too much.
Then condition really good,use the Nexxus emergencee,and in a few weeks you should be able to try again.

Thanks ... From doing a little research online i went to look for a leave in conditioner, and bought Sebastian Potion 9 ... would this be ok, or do you reccomend getting the Nexxus product too?
 
The tips when wet, if i pull on them with a little force will just snap off.
 
I have a friend that told me to get Shimmer Lights Shampoo and I used 1 application for 5 mins and a few of the tips did turn a light purple, its hard to see, only close up and at certain angles ... but it did help tone the roots, with the yellow tint down ... When i spoke to her she said that its because the tips were extremley porous or open and took the Shampoo on too quickly ... Would i be able to repeat using the shampoo in a week or so to lift it a little further?
 
If i keep using the leave in conditoner etc. will this fix the tips, (breaking) or is the damage done. I am not to worried as it is just the tips, less then a 1/4 of an inch?
 
thanks again ...

You could probably use it again in a week~but definitely get the Nexxus hair emergencee.It really works wonders.It will make your hair feel more elastic instead of snapping off and brittle.

I agree with Julesyjul88.
Nexxus emergencee is the best hair treatment that I have ever used and I've tried most of them, including the biolustre one. Nexxus it the best that you can get in my opinion and a difficult one to beat. Good luck
