Hi guys,
I just need your advice about my hair. My colourist is no longer available due to coronavirus circumstances. My natural hair colour is dark brown and I decided I wanted to make it pale white blonde. I have bleached it twice in the past 24 hours with nordic blonde, ultimate lighter from the company Schwarzkopf and it has come back as an orange copper colour rather than a nice white blonde. Below I have added a couple of photos of what my hair looked like after. How long should I leave it until I should add another lighter and will purple shampoo help with making the colour a lighter blonde?

Hi Cierra, I know this time it's quiete hard and makes it more difficult to fix any hair problem (specially by yourself). The result that you want it's clearly lighter than you have now. It is normal that you have orange copper colour, this is the intermediate shade before to be blond and white blond. You need to bleach your hair till the level of the blond you desire before to have a nice blond. Any colour won't do the work, bleach powder will do. Once you reach the blond that you desire you rince out and apply a toner like blond withe or ash blond if you still have golden shade in your hair. For an optimal result, the best is to do this job with very fine highlight done by your hairstylist. The purple shampoo could help you to take off a bit of orange shade but won't give you the result that you wish. Maybe it can makes you wait till your next appointment at your hairdresser... Good luck in your hair treatment and ask me if you have any further questions :-)
The faster way probbably is bleach, but everyone knows that it's not too good for hair and can end as a disaster. For healthy hair i would recommend to find a really good hairdresser which could make it during more than one visit. Also it's important to take care of your hairs and being at home. For that I would recommend to use organic oil shampoo and conditioner. It would make hair stronger and healther. My choise for that would be T Lab production, which I am using for a year and have zero regrets about it.

Your desired outcome it's plainly lighter than you have now. It is typical that you have orange copper tone, this is the middle shade before to be light and white fair. You really want to fade your hair till the level of the fair you want before to have a pleasant light. Any tone will not accomplish the work, blanch powder will do.
