, okay, so its a pretty long time before i'll be doing it since i'm growing out black hair dye before i bleach. πŸ™ but i'm wondering what dye would be best to get this colour green? i would prefer to not mix two dyes but if it came to doing that to get this colour, i would.

The picture looks like it has the *tiniest* hint of aqua to it but I think Adore Electric Lime will be a pretty good match too.

i actually found her youtube account and she has a video of her dying her hair, she mixed Atomic Turquoise by Manic Panic with a yellow dye, the one problem is i don't think ion chartreuse is available in england πŸ™

do you guys think i could get away with mixing MP Sunshine with the Atomic Turquoise, since its the same brand? πŸ™‚

Ion Chartreuse looks more like MP electric banana to me. It is a very bright neon yellow rather than the sunshine.

Directions Fluorescent Glow would be another option, I agree that you need a neon yellow to get those shades of green when mixed with a turquoise

It is absolutely fine to mix directions and MP. Flo glow was actually going to be my second option but i thought you might want to stick with MP.

Directions is easier (and much cheaper) to get hold of in the UK.
Any direct dyes can be mixed, so no worries about mixing brands

You dilute any dyes that have rub off with conditioner. It stops it πŸ™‚

Neon yellows don't rub off
