Alpine Green

So I've gone from Directions Plum to Alpine Green.

I'm a little disappointed with it to be honest. Most photos / the swatch make it look like a really dark green, but it's come out much more teal than I expected. I still like it, but I really had wanted a dark green!

Bleachbathed the remaining purple out. after using a colour remover the week previously, so it was a really light blonde. I actually loved it, and was tempted to keep it blonde but my roots were just canary yellow and therre was some purple still hanging around near the ends xD

before...

I still really like it, just getting over the initial disappointment of it not turning out how I expected!

This is probably going to be my last bright colour for a while too, as I'm currently looking for a placement job for university, which will be a year long, and I have a feeling that coloured hair might hold me back πŸ™ boo!

Very nice, as Pip says, to counteract the teal mix in some ebony and maybe some apple if you want to change it πŸ™‚

Looks ace! Alpine was very teal on me too but that's what I was aiming for, lol.
