So from blonde/brown to this.
Only left it on for 15-20 mins and put it on straight then last 5 mins added a touch of shampoo.
Roots need going over though and can still see bits of blonde and brown in it. Not sure about it...

i think it looks pretty! but for the areas that didnt take, did you clarify your hair well and not put conditioner on before applying the dye? or, the shampoo may have messed with it a bit because shampoos are typically alkaline and semis usually acidic...i dont know, im just kinda thinking out loud lol. usually if its diluted, most people add conditioner to is, which is usually acidic too. im just saying that may have been the problem because it sounds like youre not sure how you feel about it. if you want more of an all over without the brown, id just apply it again, but i would still clarify beforehand. and if you dilute it, which most people do because on its own it can bevery very dark, almost black, just mix some conditioner with it.

i think it looks really good though! it looks like you got foils of a honey brown, foils of a medium purple and foils of a darker purple put in at a salon πŸ™‚ i really do love this!

Very nice.  If you want the colour to stay longer, I'd leave it in for a couple of hours and clarify without conditioning, but it's a very nice result πŸ™‚
