How can I go lighter.

I had been dying my hair brown, then I stopped dying for a few months and only used clear glazes

. I stripped the color out using colorfix with pretty good albeit smelly results (it smells like daikon imho...)

It's a reddish level 7, in okay condition. I want to go to a level 9, I'm letting it rest a couple weeks and using hot oil but how do I lighten it? It's not a major change so I don't want to use bleach.

Thanks in advance

Nothing that you can purchase will lift hair. color doesn't lift color. Your best bet is to go to a salon.
