Help.. I look like a blueberry on acid!

Hey guys, I need some help!! Any help will be GREATLY appreciated. So, I've had beautiful bright pink hair years ago by using Hot Hot Pink from Manic Panic. So naturally I figured that since I knocked that dye job out of the park... I could totally kill this one too. Nope. I was wrong.

Now, I'm not sure where I went wrong, I pre-lightened my hair to about an 8 to 10 throughout before I dyed. I used Arctic Fox's Purple Rain, but I did NOT get what the pictures show it should be...

My hair came out SO much more blue, and I very frustratingly cannot take a picture that shows my hairs true in person color.

So, I was hoping someone would be able to help me figure out maybe what other color I should buy to make my perfect mix?

I was thinking maybe buying some Violet Dream from Arctic Fox and mix that in, thinking maybe that would help tone down the blue??

Thanks, guys!

Wash it several times with a harsh shampoo to fade it a bit, then add pink πŸ™‚

You need to leave it for a few days. It will come to their natural colour.

I've had the same kind of result with different dyes.  Fade the blue a bit then add pink, you'll get purple.
