Silvery Pink, Finally!

I've been tinkering around trying to figure out what works and what doesn't to make this color. I had it pictured in my mind but went through some trial and error getting it just right. I tried mixes of Virgin Rose, Hot Hot Pink, Rose Red, Pravana Violet and Pravana Green in a bunch of different ways but could never get it the color I wanted. The green turned it too blue looking, the Violet made it too bright...I was diluting all the mixes heavily and only leaving them on for a couple minutes so they would fade out quickly.

I faded out nearly all of the dye that was still in my hair, just from the sun and doing overnight oil soaks, so it was all pale yellow, white and still a little bit of Atomic Pink clinging on for dear life in the back underneath. I had some coconut oil in my hair still from a couple nights ago but didn't feel like shampooing it ( been having to CO wash more often with this humidity, plus I've been using shampoo more for fading).

I used about 3-4oz of Cure Care Hair and Skin Conditioner, a couple drops of Virgin Rose and a couple drops of Nirvel ArtX Nutre Color in Grey and I love it! Exactly what I've been trying to achieve!

OMG that's absolutely stunning... I just love it!

So many of my alternative Pinterest hair pictures are that colour, which I think is just so gorgeous.  It really suits you, and as you know, I'm loving the ArtX grey myself and am so happy you could use it to achieve this.

Really, really pretty, and really well done!  If I'd have the guts to go alternative, this is definitely what I'd do... a beautiful silver pink. πŸ™‚

Absolutely gorgeous! It suits you so well as it matches the pink in your cheeks and lip color. I am truly in awe of how you managed to make such an unusual color look natural.  *loveeyes*

Ah, thank you and thanks to everybody else too πŸ™‚ I don't wear anything on my lips usually, that's their natural color + that's the best looking blush I can find to go with my light green/yellow undertoned skin lol. It's weird, I feel like it does look natural despite being a clearly unnatural color. It probably is because I need muted/greyish cool pinks and plums for my makeup + that's what my hair is
