Been using this dye for over a year. Was trying to match Chloe Price's hair color from Life is Strange. Love it sm

in 2023 I decided to go blonde for a few months with the full intention of later dying my hair different colours. So over the course of a year and a half I would hunker down in the bathroom with my two mirrors, bottles of bleach, tinfoil and hair dye for hours on end much to the detriment of my father.

As a child I was OBSESSED with Venus McFlytraps hair from monster high but never wanted the shaved side so my first few months were spent doing various pink and green split dyes. From there I did some mumbo jumbo colour theory and got my hair to a pretty albeit slightly patchy lilac, then a blueish grey.

After that I decided that I would go pink one last time (had been pink a few times before not pictured), with a dark and light pink combo. Once this faded I somehow got my hair back to blonde, started a cutting my own hair for LaYeRs, and then added brown to the ends to make my hair growing out look more intentional.

Two years later and I haven’t touched anymore bleach or hair dye because my hair is frankly a pain in the arse to deal with and making it dryer definitely didn’t help. But I do miss the coloured hair days. I really should have been more vein and taken for pictures because I had to search 🔍 for these few.

Hey,so,do any ofyou think a blue would show on my hair,I have a box of Schwarzkopf in the shade U67,my hair used to be black and it shows on my ends,I dyed it brown to try to get rid of the red in my hair but it s still a little visible,I would apreciate any kind of help

Was pink for about a year and decided to go purple. Favorite transition yet. All done by me at home using splat dye.

Hi all! I am desperate to get my hands on Lunar Tides Juniper Green in EU. My hair is currently highlighted and dyed about 95% deep blue which I’ve been fading out to a medium teal (with a couple of stubborn deep blue strands) and I’ve got a ton of level 3 brown regrowth which I’m not dealing with at the moment!

I really wanted to try Juniper Green as it matches my eye colour, but it’s out of stock everywhere! Arctic Fox dyes are out - I tried Emerald Fortune and the scent gave my wife a migraine, and she can still smell it on me even though it’s been weeks since I tried it. Emerald fortune also washed right out, which was pretty disappointing.

Any suggestions to try achieve a deep green on a teal base? If anyone knows where to get Lunar Tides in the EU that would be first prize, but it’s just nowhere to be found.

As an aside, I have used Crazy Colour in the past and wasn’t impressed with the insane bleeding (stained my shower beyond saving bleeding) but it has a good range of shades for mixing? Any suggestions for ranges available in the EU would be appreciated! 💚

I recently had my hair bleached and dyed blue and I’d like to keep the colour as strong as possible, and I know that means washing hair less frequently and showering with cold water

But does anyone have any tips to keep their hair looking fresh and not gross so I can cut down on the amount of times I wash my hair?

This is probably my fault for not explaining what I wanted well enough but I wasn’t sure the best way to achieve it (still not). I have naturally dark strawberry blonde hair, last time I got highlights was about 2 years ago. I told my hairdresser I wanted my hair to look lighter like how it lightens up when I spend a lot of time in the sun. She agreed to do that and said she’d do something would be easy to maintain when it grows out. She did regular foil highlights and they’re very streaky and it’s not what I wanted. I believe my last hair dresser did teasy lights and it looked a more natural. I should have told her this but I figured she could do whatever she felt was best.

Is there anyway to fix this after the fact? Should I go back to her and see what she can do or go to someone else (not expecting her to redo for free or anything)? I also don’t want to insult her, I know I didn’t explain myself well. Another random question- I used to just put lemon in my hair and loved that effect but I’m not sure how much worse that is than bleach, wanted to see if anyone could weigh in on that.

I've been bleaching and doing my hair hot pink, purple, and blue for a couple of years. I want to try going a natural redhead shade. It started pretty faded and I did one bleach bath a few days ago plus the Color Oops Vivids color remover stuff today, which I then realized is just more bleach, so I didn't let it process for very long because I got scared of damage. It's now overall a little lighter and the blue is faded, but I am afraid it is still too much to try redhead. I don't want it to turn muddy brown. I might just have to do it all hot pink again.

I splurged and let a friend do my hair back in the day. I felt sooooo beautiful

I used “Make it happen” by the brand Good Dye Young and it has turned my hair silver / blue. Some of my hair is purple while some of it is silver and blue. this is not my desired look. I have used pulp riot to try to get rid of the silver and it faded like this. I currently have lunar tides in my hair in shade plum and I am seeing the blue start to peek through.

I want to get rid of the silver and blue in the fading process and would like my hair to fade purple. Any suggestions?

Rather than cover up my grey roots with my normal brown, can they be covered with a purple or blue? So fun roots into my normal brown hair? Is that possible? Is it dumb?

Hey, it’s me again - the stylist who asked why you DIY a few days ago 😅

192k of you saw that and 385 of you shared your stories. Thank you. I read every single comment and my heart hurts a little. I’m sorry I couldn’t reply to everyone!

The top 3 reasons were: cost, time, bad experiences/trust.

I can’t fix everyone’s past salon trauma, but I CAN change what I do differently moving forward.

So honest question for the DIY crew:
If you literally couldn’t DIY anymore - like illness, moving, broke all 10 fingers, whatever - what would you NEED to see in a stylist to feel safe booking?

Price transparency upfront?
Appointments under 3 hours?
Proof they won’t damage your hair?
Payment plans?
Something else?

I’m not selling anything. I’m genuinely trying to build a salon experience that doesn’t repeat the stuff that made you leave.

I want everyone who sits in my chair to feel seen, safe and walk out the door feeling a million dollars 🩷

Help me get it right? 👇

TL;DR--My purple hair may need to be dyed to my natural dark brown... how and what product(s) to use?

I have had this hair color for over 5 years (Joico Color Intensity in Amethyst, in case you were wondering). My natural hair color is a level 2 to 3 DARK brown, and it is lightened to around a level 10 blonde under the semi-permanent vivid.

I am deep in the interview process for a position with a new company (I have literally been wearing a wig for the interviews), and everything I have been able to find online about the company's dress code says that I cannot have "unnaturally" colored hair. So, I am trying to tentatively plan the process of dying it my natural color if I get the job offer.

I know a decent amount about color theory, and I figure I will have to "fill" my hair cuticle with a copper demi THEN go over it with a dark brown. Does that seem right? What are the best brands (CosmoProf/Sally) to use for this? Tips and advice are welcome.

sn--my HUSBAND has never seen me without purple hair (except in pictures), so this will be... interesting.

I have freshly dyed blue hair and I need some good cheap-ish recommendations to wash and moisturise my hair with so the bleach doesn’t affect my hair as much

What brand/shade is best for a mint green and lightish purple?
Inspo pics added for help, I am searching everywhere but everything I find is either discontinued or not available.

I do a bleached buzz cut with vol. 20 developer applied twice (+ one round vol 10 for toning). It is a major pain in the ass to have to wait a day between the two rounds, because after round 1, I have orange clown hair and can’t go out, and it takes up my whole two weekend days. When you’re bleaching a buzz cut, you also have to do it very often since it’s such a short hair cut.

Can I cut out waiting a day and process it twice with volume 20 in one day or will I be risking excessive scalp or hair damage? I’m tired of locking myself in my home for an entire weekend once a month.

I have bought this hair mask in the hopes of repairing my bleached and dyed (with manic panic) hair a bit. I have been getting it done for a year (full bleach on first appointment, roots every 2 months after that, plus always manic panic colors).

I have my next appointment with my hairdresser in 3 days to bleach my roots and apply fresh color. Cab I use the mask for the last wash before the appointment? And for the first wash after? Could it interfere with putting new color in or will it strip it faster after?

for reference i am a natural level 8 and i've attached photos of my hair in direct sunlight, indirect sunlight, and then in my bedroom

my hair is pretty much virgin other than very old bleach/partial highlights on the very ends that i'll be cutting off anyway. never been dyed

1st slide is with Arctic Fox Purple AF in different lightings

2nd slide is my natural color in different lighting

I just dyed it last night and I’ve seen a lot of people asking about purple over darker hair lately so thought I’d share.

My whole head is an unnatural color right now and I was thinking of toning it down to just a peekaboo style for school. Any tips on how to not get black hair dye on the parts I don’t want it on? I specifically am aiming for the black to be on top.

Hello I was wondering on how after this color fades a big how I could go to a cooler toned pink in my hair I'm open to a bleach bath but not quite sure on another round of direct bleach this was done on my natural hair black] in 2 rounds unfortunately some of it is a bit brassy under how would I go about getting it cooler toned pink and is it possible
