So I bleached my hair, trying to dye my hair a dark blonde/ light brown caramel hair color. So at sallys they told me to bleach it so I did. The top is really blonde and the bottom is light but it's a light redish orange is it fine to put in the dye? I don't want them to tell me that I have to bleach it again to even it out? So... Is it still okay? To just put in the dye.

If you put the dye over it, its fine but there will still probably be orangey tones to your hair. you might want to tone your hair with a toner first before applying the dye so itll cancel out the orange and you won't get it in your hair when you put the dye on top.

You can buy it at Sallys. after people bleach their hair they use it to take the orange look out.

It all looks the same color, I'm dying it a caramel hair color so the lady said that it won't be necessary so I'm anxious to know what it's going to look like.

It should come out fine, just make sure to put the colour in your ends first and the roots last if they're lighter then the rest of the hair. Also, make sure you leave it on long enough to develop. Usually after bleaching your hair I'd suggest waiting a few days before putting your dye in, just to make sure it takes as the damage done from bleaching will cause it to fade super fast. Either way, it should work :)

Thank you Shaye, I'm going to dye it today to not feel self conscience about the color tomorrow the lady there said it should be fine though.

Don't dye it when it's orange. I was trying to go a golden blonde with orange tones in my hair and it did absolutely nothing to my hair. The swatches in sally are used on pale neutral hair. I'd use a more blue toned purple shampoo for a bit or just buy a toner to cancel out those tones
