Directions Carnations Pink does not want to fade!!

I dyed the back of my (very healthy, bleach blonde) hair with Directions Carnations Pink and unfortunately only liked it for two weeks. I faded it out 3 days ago with an olive oil soak and some anti-dandruff washses. Today I used ColourB4 in the regular strength (light to mid-tones, i did not think my pink necessitated a stronger one but perhaps i was wrong!!!) and it did VERY little to remove the pink.
It's now a very pretty salmon colour but I still feel very unconfident and would really like to get it back to blonde but I don't want to use bleach or over-wash my hair.
I scowered the FAQs but couldn't find much help as to what to do if normal methods don't work.. is it safe to apply the stronger Colourb4 tomorrow?
Sorry for poor english it's not my first language
Any advice appreciated πŸ™‚ xx

Check out this thread about bleach powder and shampoo/oils technique http://www.hairdyeforum.com/index.php?topic=13842.msg155555#msg155555

And it is safe to use colour B4 tomorrow, you can use it up to three times before it won't work any more. Make sure to deep condition afterwards though as it will dry your hair a bit.

Also, if you haven't tried, you can use washing up liquid on your hair as this fades dyes quite well.
