Advice on lowlights

[pipi04]

Hi,
I've been bleaching my hair (roots only) for the past 4 years and I'm a bit bored now of having 'Elsa' white hair, so I have booked an appointment with my hairdresser to have some lowlights done. Now here's the problem....I had my hair done in December ( roots re-growth and a toner) and because my hairdresser couldn't do it I went somewhwere else and she left a yellow looking roots now she corrected it with a toner but now the toner washed out and I can see that horrible yellow colour again so now I don't know whether it would be possible to have my hair re-bleached again and have some lowlights on top of it or would it be possible to just have the lowlights and then but some highlights in to get rid of the yellow colour ? :cry:
Thanks for your help

Just try using a good quality purple shampoo until you see your hairdresser again. (The cheapy ones from supermarkets etc. don't work as well so pop into a salon. I like Fudge myself.)

I'm sure it doesn't need re-bleaching.

Thanks for the reply, I have been using silver shampoos and also Lee Stafford's Hot shots but it didn't help

Yes you can get some lo-lites & some hi-lites done if you get an experienced colorist due to the placement of needed color for optimum results!

I cant tell with out a pic of your color now but I would usually do a bunch of hi-lites & do the rest of the hair with the target base color/darker/lo-lites color etc. after all the hi-lites are in with a deposit only color that is similar to your natural haircolor or 1/2 a lv. darker than your natural to cover any fading on the previously bleached hair. The darker color for the root cover up should have some appropriate ash plus some of the natural or N tone in the formula to replace the missing pigments in the brassy raw roots to better match the natural darker color flowing through the hair as a lo-lite.

This would get you back on scheduled for a typical hi-lite & lo-lite color appointment schema for future bookings.
