Hi, I am assuming this is to cover some blonde highlights ?
if so ....
it sounds like fade , maybe the peroxide just needs lowering ,
or you could try a wella colour touch / quasi semi demi / to stain more
iykwim ,

or you could use a 6/73 instead but... first though I would do some test pieces to take away any guess work and achieve the perfect colour

Maybe the hair didnt have the strength to hold the colour . try reducing the size of your blonde weaves to leave a little more natural in there . Next time it should take much better as it will have something to hang on to being lowlighted once , and as minky says 6/73 has more of a brunette tone so should hold better still .
