Fried green hair

So i bleach my hair regularly often. Had a beautiful blonde but needed roots done. So then roots would NOT lighten despite the many attempts to tone. Well fall is coming so i went to a copper blonde with color and it turned out great. A few weeks go by and i want my blonde back.. So since color doesnt lighten color i bleached again. This time with 30 vol. And a blue bleach. Left on for 30 mins. Rinse and voila......green fried hair. So after alot of reading here i applied a honey blonde (which is warm) to my mint green hair and then a heavy hair repair. Similar to olaplex. So now roots are a honey color about 2 inches and the rest is white with a green tint still. Really just wanted to keep blonde but willing to go darker. So how do i fix it!!?..

First you need to stay away from anything with peroxide as you dont want to damage your hair any further.
I would start by getting rid of any color in your hair using a color remover ( NOTE: remover not stripper) which can be used up to three times. They will dry your hair but wont damage it. Once you have removed as much color , you can see what base you are left with and work from there. adding different colors on top of each other will never leave you with an even result, especially if your hair is damaged as parts of the hair will take up the dye differently. Make sure you rinse more than the box says in order to get all the dye molecules out.

I would recommend that if you are to dye your hair again after the remover, you use a direct dye. Adore has a nice range of natural colors which you can mix together to create the correct color you want. Using this kind of dye wont only help your hair but it wont cause the old color to reoxidise if there is any still left over after the remover.
