should I bleach it, dye it, or just give up and dye it dark? (ugly blonde color problem)?
Okay so here's my problem
My hair pulls a really really yellow color when I bleach it. Like to the point where toning it doesn't really work cause it stays so yellow. I can't get past that bright yellow, like a little chick color.
I honestly can't bleach it any more.. I think my hair will fall off if I bleach it any more.. :(
so if I dye it with a box color (or I have access to sally's so if you can suggest a particular product from there that works too) or should I just throw in the towel and dye it back to dark??
I'm just at a loss for what to do with it. I'm afraid to regret dying it dark a while from now..but I'm tired of being this ugly nasty color for the past 2 months :(
here's a couple pictures of what I have right now. These were taken like 3 days ago..and my hair is already more yellow than that. Any toning fades like crazy and purple shampoo doesn't help much at all.

it's just the pictures, trust me.. to me this is really yellow.
i'm looking for a much cooler color, which is probably why it seems so yellow to me.
semi permanent doesn't hold for crap..it washes out like no other..

I think it looks really good actually, i would go with the box coloring. Get a semi permanent shade because with the damage permanent will only make it worse and the semi permanent will not harm as much and stay just as long because of the damage already done. Tell the people who work at sally's about your problem because they have a kind of hair color that gets rid of yellow and orange tones. But after all this i would let your hair grow out for a while to prevent it from falling out.

In the pics it doesn't look that yellow to be honest. Go to a salon and have a professional see if they can get your hair where you want it. Before you put anymore chemicals in your hair wait at least 6 weeks or your hair is going to be in really crappy shape and you'll end up chopping it all off. Oh and the people that work at Sally's do give awsome advice as well so if you wanted you can go to talk to them.

Use an ash colour to tame the purple. Get a colour with the phrase ash in it. Then decide upon whether or not you desire to move brighter or darker. I bleached my hair with wella, then did an ash the following day. Decided I hated it approximately a month later went chocolate brown however did not have sufficient purple. So I did it once more the following day with a redder brown. Looks fine now. It will kill your hair until you do plenty of deep conditioning and extreme treatments. My idea for you...Go to a salon should you should not have the time, cash or know the way to do it at house.
