Depends how dark your natural hair color is.  If its medium brown or darker, you will have to use hair bleach that you buy from a beauty supply shop (like Sally).  You would have to bleach it until it was yellow (past the orange stage), then use either a violet toner for platinum blonds over it, or lift again and dye it with a violet based platinum dye, (also from the beauty supply shop...you will need both dye and developer for this).  Its simpler to go to a salon and ask them to do it for you if you aren't going to keep doing it for a long time.

So I take it you don't like it?  To counter yellow and get white you will need violet. Either as the base in another platinum dye, or in a toner. Be sure to test strand to make sure you get the timing right and don't get it to come out too purple.

You will need to buy this stuff at a beauty supply shop like Sally.  They will have the base written on all the dye bottles (you will need a bottle of developer to mix it with).  They also sell toner.  Be sure to use a violet base to tone down yellow.
