Hey guys :))
So i pretty much gave up the idea of having grey hair (for now) and bleach bathed some dark muddy greens of my hair and I got this (see photo)
I think it's a bit lighter than the photo suggests and i was wondering if i can get a pretty violet/pinkish purple that fades pretty (not like plum that turns blue after two washes) ?
I don't think it will get much lighter, and it's pretty fragile right now, but im hopefully getting my palm sized roots done and I need to color it, I'm also getting a ''big'' cut so not much green with remain
Still, will a diluted cerise/rose red + midnight blue cover the green it, or what to do to tone it ? I will strand test eventually

I think with a bit of patience you can fade it further. If you put cerise/rose red over it now it will go blue and purple, but if you fade more first you should guarantee a prettier fade and be able to achieve a pinker tone of purple if that is your goal.

The thing is if i get my (huge) roots done soon ill have to color it something ahah, but thanks for the advice, getting rid of undiluted plum is a nightmare

The run off from bleaching the roots should lift the blue/green a bit.
If you add some Midnight blue to the pink mix for the freshly bleached areas and just pink for the old blue/green bits you should get a reasonably even purple.
The new formula Plum is truly evil.

If it is any consolation the blue/green you have now is really pretty, very mermaidy.

I'd try to fade it as much as possible before going on with purple. I've had the same problem with Plum last summer, Cerise fixed the green and I got a pretty purple but within 3 weeks it was fading already and the green popped out anyway. It took a lot of fading, a bleach bath and a different purple dye to get rid of it (=cover) properly...

Hum I see 🙁 I will fade it as much as possible, maybe next month do another bleach bath on the olive greens and done
Yeah pink and green doesn't seem like the best combo, ill try to get a really light turquoise or minty green
Thankss
