Not quite what I expected to see, but good advice none the less. I thought there would be ways to correct actual coloring disaster like purple hair from an ashy blonde or hair turning nearly black from a dark blonde dye kit... guess there aren't ways to fix that aside from going to the salon...

Several of these are helpful, although I disagree that side-braiding your hair makes grown-out roots or highlights any less noticeable.
