help me get to white pls
heres a brief history of my hair for some context:
2 weeks ago i had my hair bleached to lvl 9 then used purple shampoo to get it to platinum blond but i wasnt fully happy with it because i could still see a tiny bit of yellow so i searched online and found a comment on reddit saying that you should get redken shades EQ 10VV (lavender ice) and 10P (ivory pearl) mix them with the redken processor (1 to 1 ratio) so 2oz toners and 2oz processor which i did do and left it on my hair for 20 mins like instructed. unfortunately my hair turned into a really deep purple/lavender color and not white.
after that i used color remover cuz i didnt want to wait for the purple to fade naturally and got all the purple out of my hair. at this point my hair was back to a lvl 9 but i wanted it to be a level 10 so its easier for me to get it to white. So i bleached it again and the hair in the photo is what it looks like now after the bleach.
where do i go from here? what do you think i did wrong the first time? could it be that i had purple shampoo toned into my hair and adding the redken shades overtone it to purple instead of white? i still have some of the redken to use should go for it again or am i gonna get the same result again? pls help me....
