What should I do now?

So I had a horrible bleach/dye job done by a professional. My hair was bleached two times to reach a really pale yellow that was even all over a week in between each bleaching. The second time I came in, I asked for a grey hair with a slight blue tint. I looked at Pravana hair dye swatches and agreed on Silver and Blissful Blue. Unfortunately, the blue overpowered the silver and I got deep blue hair....not what I was going for at all.

I have done 4 fading treatments which are 1 treatment with vitamin C, clarifying shampoo, and dishwashing liquid; 1 conditioning vitamin C treatment; and 2 treatments with vitamin C, clarifying shampoo, dishwashing liquid, baking soda, 20 vol peroxide, and oils. I'm not left with a really faded Pravana Blissful Blue with a slight green tinge to it.

What should I do now? Bleach cap or bleach powder + shampoo and oils?

I added some pictures of my hair.

Pictures from top to bottom: 1st two are right after I got my hair done, 3rd picture is after 2 fading treatments, and last two pictures are my hair currently.

Wow, that was blue considering what you asked for! What colour are you hoping for now, are you going back to blonde or are you just trying to achieve silver without the greeny-blue tinge?

I decided to do the bleach powder + shampoo and oils method. It worked AWESOMELY! Had it on for like 20 minutes and I'm mostly blonde now! I have a slight green/blue tinge in the front, but it is very faint. I'm hoping I can just tone it in a week or wait until my next hair appointment to touch up my roots. I'm hoping they can find a way to fully get rid of that tint.

Glad you had some success! You might be able to find something tone it with that will warm it up a bit and disguise the green/ blue- not entirely sure what but maybe someone else will know!
