Does anybody have any suggestions on which dyes/what dilution/mix combo to achieve this shade of purple?
I would love to be able to get my hair this color but I'm not sure which brand would be best... I'm starting to wonder whether I'll need to mix two different purples together to get this result? Do any of the knowledgeable hair wizards here have any suggestions?
Prior to now, I've always used diluted Manic Panic for my purples, but by and large they seem to be more blue-based; either way, I have zero problems switching to another brand if it means I can get the result I'm looking for.
I've found a shot of a stronger version of the purple that looks like it would fade to the result I'm looking for, but again, I've been unable to track which product they've used.
Any advice or suggestions would be gratefully appreciated! 🙂

To me this looks like directions lavender, maybe mixed with a little lilac as lavender is very pink. I think a pink based purple like special effects deep purple diluted a massive amount might make a colour like this as well.

Manic Panics new purple Deep Purple Dream is more of a balanced purple, I believe Purple Haze is quite pink based (should point out that I have never used MP though)
I agree with Marthas suggestion of SFX Deep Purple. I have been using a combination of Deep Purple and Blue Velvet heavily diluted and you can create any shade of lilac/lavender from these two dyes. Deep Purple dilutes and fades very pink, on its own it may well give you the shade you want.
Also these two dyes make the longest lasting pastels. It is great if you don't want to constantly re-apply, I am trying to fade mine now and it just won't budge!
