green staining can take a long time to wash out. To demonstrate the problem, I’ve dyed this piece of hair with Manic Panic’s Deep Purple Dream and then bleached the lower half. It’s a beautiful dark violet colour, and like many purples, it goes green/blue when you bleach it. You can see the original purple at
the top, and the colour change after bleaching.

Easy Way to Remove Green Staining: Getting Back to BlondeThis method is so simple, you’ll wonder why you never tried it before! Mix one part bleach powder with 2 parts shampoo in a tint bowl. I’ve used L’Oreal Studio powder bleach, which contains ammonia. The ammonia gives this an extra kick, so for the best results I recommend using something similar. A quick check of the package ingredients will show you whether your bleach powder has ammonia. Any old shampoo will do for this method. In fact, very simple, cheap shampoo is probably best.
 Manic Panic Deep Purple Dream Take the usual precautions that you would when bleaching: avoid getting the mixture in your eyes, wear old clothing, use protective gloves, do sensitivity and strand tests. Apply the mixture to any green areas of your hair, taking care not to get it on your natural regrowth. You’ll be able to see the colour change occur. It only takes around 5-15 minutes to remove the green staining. Now rinse, shampoo and condition. Left: Before removing the stain. Right: Green/blue area is returned to blonde.

Related ArticlesI used Punky color violet, and i bleached it today..and it turned green. like an aqua green. I wanted to go back blond, and now i'm either going to go back to violet or deal with this :/ I faded it as much as I could and it immediately turned green. Help :( Do you have any photos of it currently?
I do, how do i insert an image into a post? Upload it to an image site like imgur and just post the link here with [ img ] [ /img] tags around it (no spaces.) Without a photo, I'm guessing it's because your base was too yellow. Punky Violet is a very blue-ish purple and when you bleached it, the bit of blue left over with your yellow base goes green. http://imgur.com/w5tv0 heres the link to it. my camera makes it look more blueish, but I have noo idea how to get rid of this -.- you could do a bleach bath, vitamin C treatment, or wash with dishsoap/shaving cream to lighten it. or you could go purple again. if you do decide to re-purple, try a different brand so it won't go green on you again.
If you're saying you are trying to get the purple out and tried that by bleaching, hair can fade in unpredictable ways if your base color isn't light enough or you layered colors oddly. It's usually difficult to go blonde after dying bright colors. You should try fading it but if you really can't imagine walking around with the color it is now I would consider dying it a medium brown. If not, use some fading tricks mentioned above and be patient. I personally think it looks kinda cool the way it is now. A lot of people would kill to have pastel mint hair 8) Yea, I tried to bleach the purple out..But I waited 2 weeks washing with dish soap and dandruff shampoo, it faded to grey..But anyway, I was thinking- If I used either red manic panic or red toner, wouldn't my hair turn a brownish color, that would easily bleach to blond, since everything was semi permanent? Honestly I don't think that would work at all. The bleach would probably just bleach out the red and leave you with green again. I definitely wouldn't add any more color to it if you're still set on bleaching it out. Plus, mixing colors could give you really weird results especially if you don't dilute it correctly and red would be really difficult to get out of your hair if you messed it up. I would see if you can fade it any more with vitamin c treatments and then bleach again. i'd say not to bleach again, try fading as much as you can with vitamin c treatments (check the beginners' guides if you don't know how to) and if your colour doesn't fade too much try bleach bathing (again, check the beginners' guides). things that can fade your colour: bathing in chlorinated water/swimming pool, washing your hair with hot water, dandruff/clarifying shampoo, sulphates (maybe in your shampoo, last time i bleached my roots - i had pastel blue hair - i applied some hair mask on my hair and after 30 minutes i noticed i had no dye left in my hair, so i guess it contains sulphates), washing with baking soda + shampoo, leaving shampoo on a long time (like 30 minutes), soaking your hair in bath salts or salt water (sea, lake). i personally think your hair is cool like that, i'd keep it as it is.
It happened to me too It depends on which colour you've used, but if you haven't bleached over the purple, this could just part of the fading process. Sometimes, some tones just take longer to wash out than others. Have a look at the article linked below for the sequence of fading techniques to do the least damage. It can be a long process if you've use a very pigmented dye that can take months to totally wash out. However, I'd definitely wait until absolutely no colour comes out before trying regular bleach or a bleach bath (bleach/oils/shampoo is okay), since you risk it going green and becoming very stubborn to remove.

Why did my purple hair fade green?Purple Hair Dye Fades Quickly
Just like red hair dye, purple hair dye fades in a flash. The reason for this is that purple hair dye molecules aren't able to penetrate the hair shaft deeply, leaving them vulnerable to external influences.
Can you put purple hair dye over green hair?No. Purple shampoo will not fix green hair. Purple shampoo is made to get rid of unwanted yellow tones and brassiness in blonde hair. You're better off using purple hair dye or blue dye over green hair to really counteract the green and give you a new purple hue.
