Okay I'm sorry for posting about this. I've recently (about during easter) dyed my hair blonde. I used something similar to colorfix to take the color that was in my then, light brown hair, out. ..it seemed to work well. I used Garnier Nutrisse in Champange Blonde ..but now it seems to be getting brassy. Although I'm not exactly sure because I don't quite know exactly know what brassy hair looks like. Sorry I'm an idiot.
Here is a picture of my hair not too long ago.. but the color has seemed to change a little now:

Here is my old color I'm sort of wanting to get back to, maybe a shade or so darker:

..do you think my hair is in the brassy stage? If so what can I do? Thanks.

Brassy is usually (unwanted undertones) To me brassy is orange, or orangey yellow. When brown hair gets bleached a lot of the red and yellow undertones come in play. Also brassy yellow is kinda like gold yellow not pale yellow. A very harsh bright yellow undertone is considered brassy.Hope that helps
