Help me with bleach please!

I have natural dark briown hair and I'm trying to go dirty blonde, doing it by myself.
I bleached my hair today, left it on for 30 minutes, deep conditioned and I'm sleeping with olive oil on my hair. I really don't wanna damage my hair.
Now, how many days should I wait before bleaching again and how long should I leave the bleach on next time?

Oh, forgot to say my hair turned to a light brown with some greasyness.

Help me proceed please.

I'd say wait a few days. If you did it today, personally if you feel like your hair is strong enough, you can do it again on like Tuesday maybe. Just make sure that you continue to deep condition and moisturize your hair. And I'd say leave the bleach on the same amount of time and just check it periodically.

Thanks Dorothea!
I don't know how strong my hair can be cause I never bleached it ir died it before but it doesn't feel damaged at all by this first bleach.
Do you think my hair can really get enough light?
My natural dark brown color was very deep.

If youre using 30 vol I do believe one more session is okay. Maybe leave it in 40 minutes since youre regularly restoring moisture in your hair. Its so important that you check your hair though. And I'd invest in a toner to get out any yellow/orange tones :)

I already bought a purple shampo for that.

Thanks for your help lovely!
