Dark roots, 3 inches of orange, with blonde highlights!! how can I get a decent blonde color??

I have natural dark brown hair (blonde as kid, later it used to get highlighted just with the sun). About 6 months ago I got it highlighted at the salon, they highlights were light blonde and caramel. Looked nice. However, I had a baby, and going back to the salon has been impossible (financially and timewise). About 3 months ago I used a natural light blonde (Preference), and it looked ok. Here's the tragedy: a month ago, I decided to go really ligth and used Les Blondissimes lightest ash blonde. Well, it turned orange. My highlights are almost colorless. I decided to stop messing with it for a while cause it was really getting damaged. Now it is in good shape, but my roots are coming and I look horrible. HELP! Salon is no option. I have no babysitter, and little money. I really feel like a blonde, all my life have been. Don't want to go brown. Any suggestions??

There are some more shades at this site and a good price.

This last 3 to 4 weeks,probably 4,and you could layer the colors as it is a mild hair color.Probably pick the shade between the two already on your head between the roots and the ends plus the roots.

depends on where you lived, I would suggess you go to a less fancy salon, like Fantastic Sam, or go to some Asian salons. Believe it or not, Asian actually did a pretty dang good job and didn't break your bank.

You could bleach your roots but be advised stay one inch to one and one half inch away from your roots or go to a place such as sally's beauty supply or go to a drug store or a place like walmart and buy a root touch up kit if you have the time. I would use the root touch up kit because bleach can take a while to process. Good luck!

absolutely, whatever you do, do NOT use semi permanent dye, such as clairol natural instincts to lighten your hair. It turned my light brown roots orange, not to mention wrecking my blonde color. DO NOT USE IT!!!
