Okay first off, if you need to ask advice on bleaching your hair, that should be the first red flag that goes off in your head that you shouldn't do it. I'm a professioanl stylist and even I would NEVER bleach my own hair.I would only let another stylist do it. Applying a highly toxic, caustic chemical to your own head. If that doesn't. Sound stupid to you....it should. You could easily destroy your hair, damage your scalp, I've had clients who had permanent eye damage, respiratory problems from the bleach. I honestly don't know why it is even LEGAL to sell bleach to someone without a license. Its just too easy for someone to mess up their hair because they don't know how bleaching works or affects hair.

Okay, the reason your hair turned yellow isn't because you bought the wrong brand of bleach. Its because you don't know how hair works. Ill try to make this easier to understand. There are 2 natural colors in your hair. The 'color you can see', and the 'color you can't see'. The 'color you can't see' is your undertone. When you lift hair (lighten it) your undertones will come through. This is why some people have orange/brassy tones, some have really red tones, and some people have yellow tones. When you see a professional to bleach your hair (which is the ONLY way anyone should EVER bleach their hair) they will use a toner to get rid of unwanted tones. Most people who attempt to do their own hair don't even realize this about hair, and its why they end up with weird tones.

Also I have to address that answer someone gave about going into the store and asking them where the toner is. Toner is hair color. You're not going to simply find a bottle that says "hair toner". Everyones hair is different. So everyones hair will react differently to a bleaching process. Therefore not everyone is going to use the same color to tone their hair. So if you ask for toner, they will take you to the tubes of hair color. Also you would only know what color to buy if you know your hairs level and tone. Most people that work at Sally's don't know enough about hair to honestly help. The people that DO know about hair would usually end up at a professional beauty supply store. I've worked at one many, many years ago when I was appprenticing to do hair after I got my license.

Honestly? You NEED to go to a salon to fix it. If you're asking that many questions then its clear you don't know what you're doing. And when you don't know what you're doing, it can be VERY easy to damage your hair. Especially with bleach. Trust me, you don't want to turn into those people on yahoo answers asking for help because their hair is melting off after bleaching or coloring their own hair. At that point you would have to go to a salon anyway to try and salvage your hair. So why not just let a trained licensed professional help in the first place.

Go to a few salons. And get a consultation from at least 3 different stylists. Consultations are free. Ask a lot of questions. Then pick whoever you feel most comfortable with.

Good luck!
