Thanks for your help. The box only gives directions for mixing with toner or color. It says you can put it in shampoo but it does not say how much to use. I tried 20 drops in one ounce or so of conditioner, applied to damp hair and left it for 15 minutes. It toned it down a bit. I then shampooed mixing 20 drops with the ounce or so of shampoo, that did not do anything.

I bought some purple tint shampoo at the drug store, that seemed to help a bit also. Maybe if I add this color corrector to that? Maybe I will go to the beauty supply store and look for the shimmer lights. I feel like such a fool. I used a dark blond first, that ended up orange. After reading online, I used a light ash blond. That toned it down quite a bit, but still too red for me. My hair won't take another bleach processing. I bought a light brown color with no peroxide. Do you think that might do the trick. My natural color is dark blond to light brown, kind of a mousy ugly color. I was trying for the medium ash blond I loved when I was younger. I used to color my hair all the time and never had a problem.

Word of warning. If you have brownish hair and want to go lighter, go to the salon. Trying to fix a mistake ends up costing as much if not more.
