It'll wash out in a few washes, probably to a more ash brown.

Also, she should have waited about a week for your hair to rest from chemicals, and rebleached again until it's a pale yellow (think of the inside of a banana) and then used a purple toner
I suggest wella t18 lightest ash blonde (if you want to be platinum)

It won't come out in a picture. but its light blue kinda looks grey. so I should get it re-bleached in a week?

A toner isn't permanent, all it does is remove a certain colour or counteracts. The blue would've been used to remove the orange, without the blue toner you'd still have orange hair. Purple toner won't do anything unless your hair is already pale yellow and you're trying to remove yellow tones and make it a cooler blonde apposed to yellow blonde.

So leave it for a week, wash your hair and the blue or silver colour will fade.

There's no need to lighten anymore if you've already reached your desired blonde colour unless you're trying to to platinum/white.

If I want to re-bleach it how long should she wait to do it? can she do it tomorrow?

When did you last have it bleached?

Mayra T.

She did it today.

Then I don't think she'd do it again tomorrow, she'd make you wait probably a month.

Dang it:/ is washing it the only way to get rid of the grey/blue?

Unfortunately :( it doesn't take long though depending on your hair and the condition, etc. But when I tone my hair it takes about 3-5 washes and that tint from the toner goes away and leaves my hair blonde again.

You should have used a violet/blue mixed with a neutral and not just straight violet/blue. It would have taken the orange out a little and added a more warm tone. Like a beigeish. I always do that to my blonde clients and it just comes out gorgeous. Not ashy, dingy, yellow, or violet/blue. Just perfect.
