I just recently bleached my hair (today!) My roots were a light yellow and the rest of my hair was a Vitamin C orange color, I then colored it a Medium Natural Blonde. I read in two articles on salon web sites that bleaching it before coloring your hair helps get it the color of the box, but after I colored it the second time it`s orange! I don`t know what to do, does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks!

Hi,

I know you are not going to want to hear this but the best solution at this point is to either call the 800 number on the box of color that you used and ask the hair color consultant what to do. They will need to know the number of the color that is on the box. So have it handy.

Or the other option is to go to a color specialist who can even out the tones.

Coloring is pretty complex and depending on your natural color, you might have a lot of red tones that would come out with the orange color.

It is OK to have Vitamin C color though so maybe you might want to just let it "settle" for awhile. If you really want to get it to a medium blonde you should definitely get someone to help from either the hair color company or a stylist/colorist.

Best wishes,
Karen Shelton
