So I just bleach my hair for the first time. I went from my natural brown to this orange color. I put on wella t18 toner after but it didn't help at all. I'm debating on bleaching again today. I deep conditioned for 20 minutes and placed coconut and egg mask to strengthen my hair. Not sure what I should do at this point. Help!!

Your hair is still too dark for t18, I believe. You should bleach till your hair is a pale yellow. But wait a week before bleaching again...you really don't want to pile on the damage.

Yes, Essie is totally right. Next time you bleach your hair again add some blue shampoo, this will help get rid of orange tones.

I agree with Essie and patty. Shiny silver is a good purple shampoo or at sallys they have bleach additives to get rid of orange and yellow tones. I've seen people tone with manic panic before, MP wouldn't damage your hair if youre interested I've watched a couple of YT videos on it.

I'm a hairstylist, and you need to wait AT LEAST 2 weeks between bleachings. At minimum. I would very highly suggesting going to a professional stylist when dealing with something as damaging as bleach, and find a stylist near you who uses olaplex or something similar. Trust me, you can do irreparable damage to your hair by trying to bleach it yourself at home.
