Advice on how to get my peach hair white w/o bleaching again?

Hey! I'm new.  πŸ˜€
I've read a few similar questions but everybody's situation is unique so I need some advice on mine. My goal was (and still is) to get my hair a pastel pink. So a few days ago I bleached my whole head for the first time (with coconut oil too) and it went wonderfully, my hair didn't feel that damaged. Then I tried to tone it to make it white but it didn't work well and only lightened the blonde a bit. I figured it didn't matter too much if my hair was slightly yellow before adding the pink, I don't mind a slight peachy tint. I used some pink Manic Panic and my hair ended up being VERY very peach - way more orange on my head than I planned. It was pretty but I need my hair *pastel pink* for this weekend, not peach. So I washed my hair a few times until the color faded, and later tried adding a more vibrant (still MP) pink to my head to cover up the peach. But this only brightened the pink sections and didn't affect the orange parts at all. So now my hair is dappled orange and bright pink and I don't know what to do.  πŸ™ If I fade it, it will just fade to a lighter peach version of this. I need it to be just light pink by Saturday. I definitely should not bleach it again, so how do I get it white now without bleach? Should I buy a color remover and then try toning it again?

Pics would help. Some MP pinks are very peachy when diluted, you need a pink with very cool violet tones to cancel out the warmth in your base.
You can try a colour remover, or using dandruff/clarifying shampoo and letting it sit for half an hour or so. You can also try vitamin C, lemon juice, baking powder, etc there are lots of fading methods.
Then try toning your base again (what exactly did you try before?) and adding some blue or purple to make a cooler toned pink.
