Uh-Oh hey?
You should have waited a few days and washes your hair lots and lots until the color faded. Browns will fade on Blondes... even bleach blondes.
I was a bleach blonde for a long time and went black. It faded to a messy brown and then I just lifted the color with bleach.
The only way to lift color is to use bleach, another color won't lift it.
I dunno how you would lighten it anymore....  Sorry...
 You can try COLORFixing it. Apparenlty you get those at Sally's. Try that maybe.
