Bleached Hair Gone Wrong?

I bleached my sisters hair but it was previously coloured, at the top her hair was BRIGHT blond almost white, at the bottom a yellowish sort of ok blond but then in the middle it is ORANGE. We then washed that out after about an hour and a half and applied a normal light ash blond hair dye that stays on for just 10 minutes but it's a cheap one so it contains ammonia and such, it hasn't made much difference. I'm very worried if I apply another dye I will thin out and ruin her hair, should I apply a toner or just dye it brown overall with a new dye, but then I'm scared it wil ruin it, please help!:(

    Use Quick blue bleach powder , 20 vol. creme developer, and use toner.

    Leave it in for at least 20 mins. Usually it would be left in for 40mins but since you already bleached it that might not be the best idea. If you leave it in for 20mins you should check on it after 10mins to see how it is doing.

    Don't forget to use foil.

    You can purchase all of this at a local sally beauty supply store and ask the workers there to make sure it will be okay

    Maybe you didn't apply it evenly enough. And you'll need a toner to get rid of the yellow. Just try again or even better go to hairdressers.
