The stripper I used was in a yellow box from Sally's, that stunk fucking horrible. The bleaches I used, I tried blue flash because I use to have pink, red, blue and purple hair and used that stuff. Then I used one that smelled like apples, and then I used splat. Nothing worked.
I plan on bleaching again, but not for like two or even three months again, have any of you had this problem, if so what have you used?

Shave it off and start again. Keep it somewhat natural...its the best!

Don't bleach it. you will only ruin your hair. you shouldn't have gone from black to blonde so quickly - you need to do it in stages. you'd be better going to a salon and doing it that way. or stick a light brown on and do it and stages. I have many traumatic times with my hair so I know how you feel. it just takes patience. xx

Also, I tried jerome russel for stripping my hair. I think I did it twice and it took it light enough for the colour I want. you won't need to do all of your hair because your roots are already quite light. just do the ends leaving about 1-2 inches from the top. also, when you have it to the desired shade, get the ends cut as the hair stripper and bleach will dry your hair. good luck. xx

I think you dyed your hair way too much in the past and this will cause hair loss or hair fall if you continue to do so. I personally think you should chop your hair all off and work at least a pixie cut. It's the only way you would be able to start over. Next time, don't do the coloring or stripping yourself, have it professionally done.

Go to a salon! things could go worst if you bleach it again, I can promess you this.

If I was in your position I'd just dye it back to black or a nice dark brown color and then use a deep conditioner for a few months and then after its somewhat healthy again just go to a salon and get your preferred color. I've been here a few times lol. It's never fun :(

Try toner! It evens out your hair color and gets rid of the orangey/ brassy/ lemon yellow tones and leaves a bleach blonde color if that's what you're trying to go for. I use manic panic Snow White toner. You'll have to leave it in for a while though. Just do research on toners. Btw I suggest going to a salon whenever you want your roots touched up. Bleaching roots is an extremely hard process lol.

And I also suggest using argan oil to keep the hair smooth and healthy.

I agree with manal, dying stripping and bleaching you hair that many times cause SEVERE damage.

Go get your hair professionally done. Bleaching/dying it all of the time will make it fall out.

I've NEVER dyed my hair but I'm just assuming that that will happen.

How light are you trying to get? Bleaching it will just make it turn orange/ yellow, it reveals the underlying pigment in your hair. You will need to color it either a dark ash blonde or a light ash brown to counteract the warm tones. And do lots of deep conditioning!

Yeah you should use a toner its like a shampoo but it has this deep purple color and it gets rid of the orange brassy color.

You should just go to a salon. They're going to fix it faster than you will and it will probably cost the same. I really think its a safer way to go. :\
