I used brush on highlights to lighten my hair. This time it turned strawberry blond not light blonde

I have dark blonde/light brown hair. I have always highlighted my hair with a frost/highlight kit with cap. It always turns out very good. It is a nice light blonde. This time I tried the brush on highlights and it turned out like a brassy blonde, or dark blond. I think it looks a lot like strawberry red blond. Is there any product to lighten it more or get rid of the brassiness? Anything else other than coloring it.? It is only on the front, the rest is fine.

Yea go to your local beauty mart...where they sell salon products to everybody....and get this container of kaleidocolors it lightens up to 5 levels....it will go as light as you wish :) and a bottle of pure white developer 20 its a cheap and sexy way to do your hair and people will think a professional did it....Its an awesome product try it and let me know how it went :) i have the dark blond to light brown natural hair color and i have used and LOVE this product it only needs to sit on your hair for 10 mins.....and it looks amazing...i totally bleached my hair with it......:) good luck!!! Make sure you buy a brush if your doing highlights...and never mix the product in a metal container....always use plastic :) and it DOESNT cause the yellowness..like most of those products....this is actually a blonde...not yellow

If you still want the highlights, do the same thing with the brush, but go ot the beauty supply and buy bleach (blue Wella is good), with 10 or 20 volume developer. Don't let the sales people talk you into anything higher than that. Do the same thing with the brush technique over the highlights that you have already done. (the cap wont let you get the same pieces to highlight). Do a little strand test first and time it. Then proceed with the rest of it.



The reason that it is orangey is because brown hair goes through color stages when it is lightened.(from brown, to red, to orange to yellow to blonde.) It just didnt lighten past the orange/red stage. The 10-20 volume devloper may take longer to process, but it will do less damage to the already lightened pieces.



Or you could have a pro fix it...good luck! =)
