Can I bleach hair after k18?

I'm not knowledgeable about hair at all. I started with 3 month old calico hair in January of 2025. My hair was still really healthy as that was the first time I have ever bleached or dyed it. Then, I went to a school for a discount on my hair. This time, I wanted pure black and blonde skunk highlights. The instructor told my girl to dye my hair completely black first and then lift the blonde off of it. They put me underneath the heat lamp and I had sat there for 30 minutes. My hair was completely fried and had broke off. I had bought k18 repair mask and used it once a week for a few weeks, and flash forward to may 2026, my hair is healthier and shows no sign of damage. I have black box dye in my hair and am wondering if I am able to start bleaching it again if I get the box dye out. I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but I don't know a lot
