sooo I had found this picture of a WIG but i am in love with this colour.
atm ive been using La Riche Directions hair colour and is obsessed with it so i would prefer to mix this brand to achieve what i want.  also I have a butt load of it.

can someone break down this colour for me or let me know how to mix it?

I’d say some directions dark tulip with a good healthy dose of flamingo pink mixed in. Hard to say what proportions, but I think those colours mixed should get you there. Maybe some Atlantic of it starts to go too pinky red. Though, it will depend on your base colour, what is that?

thanks heaps Janineb for the reply this is what i had/ have now.

I will try those but i do think it will go too pinky red with those options. I will purchase the Atlantic also.

do you think I could work with plum with this colour. because i have a shit ton of that.

or do you think plum will change the whole colour entirely?
I know I am going to have to swatch it out before I find the right match 😥😥😥

that is plum to rose red to a very diluted rose red at bottom 😃

I'm really talking about a tiny bit of pink added to the Dark Tulip, not a lot.

Plum is way too blue I'd say. What I see in the photo is pretty pink toned, maybe the photo is showing differently for both of us, that can happen. Plum'll go pretty dark over what you have I think, maybe not if you dilute it, but it'll then show too much red that it looks like you have. As it's going quite coral on the bottom you need to get that a bit more pink and the top less red. I'd fade some more and then attempt it. But if you want to use Plum it'll need a lot of pink added.
