How I did Turquoise to Pink!

I decided to change my colour from turquoise (which I did love, but after 3/4 months, I was a bit bored) to pink!  I took a lot of pictures during it so I could keep track on how I did it, so heres the result!  I apologise for the messy rooms/no make-up photos and the sexy hair dying clothes!  😛
First, I stopped adding colour to my conditioner and used a detox shampoo to try and get as much colour out as I could, however, seeing as my hair is a sponge, after a month of it, this is as light as it got.

Next up, I tackled my roots, let it rest for a few days then did the extra strength colour b4.
While this left me all yellowy, which I needed - my hair was white in the fringe area before I dyed it turquoise all those months ago and I couldn't shift it without causing major damage to the hair, so I just left it, as it was quite light as you can see here:

Then I added toner to get rid of all the yellow, so I'd have a brighter base. 🙂

Then I did some strand tests for my pink, by now, with the light turquoise, pink and the lilac from the toner, my hair is 2 colours away from being a McFly song:

I pop on my colour - this is my fave brand Directions in Flamingo pink, diluted with conditioner from lush, vitamin E oil and macadamia oil.

My favourite part - popping on a shower cap and heading to bed!

I did my extensions the next day.  I wanted to have a pink fading to purple effect, so I used the pink from the night before, then diluted it for 2 more 'areas' and I used Directions Lavender and diluted that as well for another 2 areas.

So heres how they turned out.

And finally, my new pink hair!  The bits where the turquoise remained turned a purpley colour - which actually looks like shading/lowlights, so that turned out to my advantage after all!

Thanks for looking, I'll try to get a picture of my hair with the extensions in up soon.  🙂 Hope this helps anyone else changing from one extreme to another!
