Have both the bleach and the highlift gone orange or just the highlift?
did you tone it afterwards?
 
you cant tone hi lift tint can you?x

Technically you can, but that would defeat the point of them, i was asking about the bleach highlights, sorry should have specified lol x
 
Sorry this is going off the subject lol i did a colour correction a while ago, some one had used a hi lift on a base 4 (god knows why) then i had to try to fix it, i tried to tone it and didnt make the slightest difference, had to bleach and tone in the end x

thats because the highlift didnt lift enough as it was used on a lower base. if you had toned with a shade darker then it would have worked, but darkened at the same time.

I would probably say bleach over the highlift with 3% to be honest

i spoke to the wella tecs they said maybe colour touch 9/01on roots then if it covers to much of the bleach hlts re do them after washing out? thanks for your input
 
yep knock the highlift on the head, the hair has far too much red in it for the highlift to work, go over with bleach and 3% as perry says, and stick to bleach in future on her hair! x

The high lift would only have lifted to an 8/9 so a 9 wouldn't help but it would be impractical to pick out the high lift and tone anyway, bleach them and comb through a nice natural toner to give the multi tonal effect she is after
