Could really use some advice. Used to have my light brown/dark blonde hair heavily highlighted with pale yellow highlights. I decided I needed a change so I changed my base color to an apricot (used highest lift color available and 30 vol. perox.) and highlighted that with pale yellow. Way too blonde for me. Need to get back to original look. Do I need to fill the apricot areas first or can I just tint back to a light brown/dark blonde. Any product suggestions? Anything in the honey blonde/dark blonde/light brown range would be ok. Thanks for your help? Replies:
