Hey all, I just stripped the red out of my hair, and I'm stuck with 3 inches of platinum blonde and 3 inches of a yellowish blonde. Should I just put a darker blonde semi over my hair or...? Help, please!

Did you bleach before using colorfix to remove the red? If so, then go ahead and use a darker blonde. Red is very hard to remove. Maybe there is still some color from the dye left in your ends. Hope this helps.

The easiest thing would be to cut the 3 inches. If your hair's in good condition, it's try bleaching it again. Unless you don't mind the darker blonde, try that and see if it evens out.

Just put the bleach on the yellow part. Probably a good idea to put conditioner on the platinum part to protect it from further bleach.

Update: I have a darker blonde toner on it now. I'll update with the results later. Thanks everyone!
Update again: The darker blonde took, but there are a few lighter streaky pieces on top. I'll just part my hair on the side for the time being, and in a few weeks touch up with the same semi color.

The darker color will fade some and the streaky pieces should blend better in a few days.

Could I put a Fanci-Ful rinse over it in a couple of days if it doesn't fade enough to blend?
