hi everybody i m sorry if i m openin a new topic but i need a solution as soon as possible ;D
anyway this time i m going to try to be as clear as possible.
so, the first pic rapresent my natural hair. they're dark brown and i ve never dyed them. (but they're chimical straight,and i ve made that process 3 times.)
this days i m fallin in love with green/torquois colors so i want to reach something like that.
i don t want to bleach my hair. i know without bleachin them i can t get none of this colors but i d like to obtain some particular shades.
the other pic i post are the colors i d like to obtain.
my questions are :
1) how can i do?
2) how it possible look like without bleachin? (show me a pic if u have it)
3) has anyone done this before? (again, if u show me a pic of results i d love it)
4) what semipermanent color have I to buy to obtain a better result? (i m looking for suggestions :D)
5) my hair touch my sholders so how much product ml have I to use? (...and to buy?)
thank you soooo much if u ll help me *thx*

You might be able to get a dark green or teal but it's unlikely to show up as bright as the last picture.
Pick a semi-permanent dye, apply it and leave it on for as long as possible (all day or overnight) before washing it off.
You need to bear in mind not just how dark your hair is but also how "warm" your natural colour is, as this can affect your result. Look at the colour wheel thread to see what I mean, it's linked in the Frequently Asked Questions thread at the top of this forum.
To be honest I'd start with a strand test - either a hide-able section on your head or with hair collected from your hairbrush. Just in case it goes really muddy or weird.

thank you 😀
i was also thinkin about a permanent hairdye ,it s called "wella" ..do you know this kind of hairdye?
i think it contains oxigen (about 20 volumes) so maybe it could work better?
but am also afraid...if i made the blue one on 20volume oxigen hair, it became green? which color do i buy?
what mark? how much ml?
thank you for replayin *loveeyes*

Permanent bright coloured hairdyes are never very good. They actually fade faster than semi permanent/direct dye.
I don't think it's oxygen you mean, it's peroxide. I suspect there's a translation issue there though as there is oxygen in peroxide and it "oxidises" dye. By using a product with peroxide, it will lightly bleach your hair. So once the dye has faded (and it will) your hair won't look the same. If you want to add colour back in, the peroxide in the dye will damage your hair each time.
Do not, under any circumstances, mix semi permanent/direct dye with peroxide. At best it will do nothing at all, at worst you could get a horrible chemical reaction in the bowl or worse on your head!
You have quite a lot of red in your hair, so I don't think you'll get a nice teal green. As I said in the other thread, I think it'll just look darker. The only way to get it to show is lighten your hair at least a bit. The best way is with a bleach bath and direct dye. I think you mentioned Elumen in your other post. I've never used it, but I believe it is a direct dye but it's very highly pigmented so it stains and is pretty much permanent.
