On Monday I used Born Blond Maxi to bleach my hair (I had dark brown hair), it came out very orangeish yellow. So then according to the directions it said to use Natural Instincts Saharah to tone. I bought some last night and now my hair is VERY golden blonde. It looks sort of weird and I would really like to have light blonde hair. Should I wait a couple of weeks, and use a light ash blonde dye or a neutral light blonde dye? I was thinking about using Clairol N'Easy, since they have a bigger selection of light blondes.
I don't really want to go to a salon and have it done there, I've been disapointed with how a majority of salons where I live dye my hair. |

| You need to bleach again to reach the color of the inside of a banana. Then tone with the same product you used. |

| I agree with Jojoswr. It may work if you use an ash color,but it is better to just re-bleach. You simply didnt lighten enough to get past that golden stage. |

I actually bleached it to a very pale yellow color, but they Natural Instincts made my hair a darker golden color. I guess I'll try to re-bleach or just try a very light ash blonde. I bought some Shiny Silver Ultra shampoo to hopefully get rid of some of the yellowness.

| Ok,if it's a pale yellow,no need to re-bleach. The toner will probably fade with washings,then you can proceed with the ash blonde color. |

Do note bleach again, then the hair will become even more damage or even worse fall of.
I suggest that you wash your hair with tide washup liquid and wait for the golden toner to fade, then use and ash based one.
good luck
