Hi...Okay, well here's my question.
   I lightened my way too brown hair with colorfix. I am now a reddish/ashy blonde. I would like to add a tiny bit more red to it without loosing all of the blonde. I would like to have a gingery apricot blonde red color. What would be best to do to get that? Should I just tone with a high level beige red? Or use permanent color. I was thinking of trying Clairol Apricot Glaze? Any suggestions??
Thanks!

"I am now a reddish/ashy blonde..."

It's hard to say what would work without seeing a picture of the reddish/ashy blonde.  Do you have a picture?  What level/tone is your virgin hair?  Why did you use colorfix, to remove color, or just to lighten your hair, sort of like a gentle bleaching job?  Do you have highights?  What has been done to your hair thus far?

Remember too that your hair likely won't look like what's on the box color. 

You could always strand test the color you are looking at trying to see what it will look like.
