First off, I'm rubbish at the scientific stuff when it comes to hair colouring and I really am new to it all. I am naturally a medium/darkish blonde. I had hi-lites put into my hair in the summer which went really brassy, dry and horrible. I dyed over this with a medium blonde colour and it was lovely. I then dyed it again a few weeks later and I was still relatively pleased with the result. I then dyed the roots and went over the faded top layers of my hair and unfortunately this came out looking really unnatural and orange. It's better now because my hair has grown a few millimetres and the colour seems to have faded a bit.
 
What made this happen? I thought that hair only potentially went orange when dark hair was lightened.

Are you using the same color or changing?

Sounds like you have color build up from coloring all over and the highlighted parts grabbed the color more.Since you picked a gloden tone,this is why they look kinda orange.
Next time you should aim for a more ashy color.It will cover up the orange tones in your hair.
 
Or,you will have to use a color that has more lift and lightens more.

Ah I see, I did wonder about ash. I'm undecided as to whether I should just let it grow out now or try and cover it with an ash dye. Thanks for the help!

 a champagne blonde(which has some ash tones in it) or light/medium ash blonde would do the trick.

Good luck,hope this helps.
