Ok, so after 2 1/2 years of avoiding hair salons for color after my last mishap, I finally walked back into a salon Saturday. 6 hours 2 bleachings and 2 toners later, I left with copper (nearly red) and yellowish hair. I began with medium brown hair trying to achieve a brown to ash brown ombre and the stylist just couldn't get me there for some reason? So now I'm left with a whole head of copper colored to light blonde yellow hair. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what kind of toner I can purchase to get rid of this red color asap. Any help would be so, so much appreciated.

I see a little bit of warmth, but warmth is VERY different from orange/red/yellow. What you're describing is brassy and you're hair is not brassy.

Maybe it's the lighting but I can't really tell what's going on with your hair. Could you perhaps take a picture in different lighting?

The picture definitely doesn't show what I'm talking about very well.

Don't take my word for this but what if you put an ash brown dye over your hair? The other options I assume might work is to tone it repeatedly or bleach it out! I'm sorry this happened to you! Do you think your stylist would redo it for you if you said it wasnt what you were looking for?
