My attempt at a natural ginger shade

This is the base colour I was left with after using decolour remover on my purple & faded turquoise hair

The ends were darker than this photo shows.
I used superdrug colour effects wash in wash out dyes in Rich red and strawberry blonde. However rinsing it out I saw it wasn't dark enough to cover the ends of my hair that were still bluey green. So I clarified my ends again, applied more of the Rich Red to the mids and ends of my hair, and then added a small amount of Directions Flamingo Pink that I had here, and combed it through. And this is the result!

This is it in messy plaits as it was drying, I've still got them in so not sure how it looks completely dry yet, but I'm really happy with this. I'm going to top it up with some adore dyes when they're back in stock. Really happy with this  πŸ™‚

I will try to get some photos of it dry tomorrow πŸ™‚ There's a few bits where the green is peeking through a bit still, but I will go over them with a darker red at some point

EDIT-

and this is it dry today πŸ™‚
