    Due to the usage of bleach the hair just altered its colour into the one you tried to put on it. You cannot remove it at once, you have to wait for your hair to grow off. The new hair will bring your natural colour back and relieve your pain of ruined highlights.

    Apply on the remaining parts of the hair which you have not highlighted before for 10-15 minutes, to make it one coloured. It is up to you whether colouring only highlights or all hair, as it will not look that bad if you treat your dye as another kind of highlights. Later on, wash your hair thoroughly and remove the colour. Apply a deep conditioner to soften your hair.
