Plum and Rose Red

Really hard to capture this amazing colour. I mixed the two for two reasons: the pink to counteract the blue in case I got one of the "bad batch" of Plum, and because my base was a medium pink so I wanted to blend in my roots. The mixture itself (which was very nearly 1:1 Plum/Rose, with ever so slightly more Plum, then diluted with about a third again of conditioner) was extremely pink, but stained everything blue and made my hair the most awesome purple, which is quite dark and slightly bluish, but with a magenta sheen. I've not actually seen it in daylight yet because there hasn't been any, but it looks amazing under my white light bathroom lights!

Vague attempts to capture the colour, at work under artificial light.

Close up, with flash:

Selfie mode on camera - you can sort of see the pink here

That's lovely, Tabitha!!!  It's so pretty and looks different in all different lighting.  πŸ˜€

My daughter is a similar shade just now, but hers is a mix of AP and Adore Indigo Blue over faded AP.  πŸ™‚  I love that in different lights, you can see all the different shades (blue, purple and pink).
