I have my friend highlight my hair and she is a new stylist.  She has highlighted my hair many times but this time she left it on too long and also had bigger strand of hair in the foiled parts which bled at the point where the foil met the scalp.  She was only doing a touch up at my natural part where I always part my hair.  She comed a color of equal parts of 20% peroxide and a light natural brown over some of the brightest highlights to tone them down and that worked but I would still like some darker shades(especially where the colorer bledat the base of my scalp) so the outgrowth wont be so drastic.  She always does a great job and I have a variety of colors which I love.  What color do you recommend to tone them down and get some of the highlights back to my natural medium brown hair?
