Hi, I'm after advice again :-[
I have used colour b4 three times over the past month, it's shifted some of the green but I'm still left with a mix. I'd done a bleach bath just before on the roots so I am currently 3 colours. I've bought some of the eggplant by Adore but do you think it would cover this? I was wanting to avoid a pink fade but would be willing to mix a red purple if that would cover it. Any advice would be hugely appreciated.. I need to be rid of the green in the next couple of weeks.
This is my hair today
I think Adore Rich Eggplant will cover that nicely. Try on a strand to be certain.
It looks to be a warm purple, so should have a pinky fade. Please post pics, i am very interested in seeing the new adore shades on hair.
Thanks for the reply, I'm going to give it a go and see how it turns out. I have 3 bottles so hopefully if the first attempt doesn't work the second will *crosses fingers*
I'll post pics when it's done, I love the adore dyes as there's hardly any rub off and the colour lasts for ages π

It goes on quite a balanced purple over an orange/red base (also almost black freshly done!) but there's not an ounce of pink in its fade. At least on my hair. It's actually fading a grey'd-out purple on my yellow places and toned the orange to ash brown.
Thats interesting, it must be more blue based than it looks on the swathes/in the bottle. Do you have any pics?

I'll try to get some pictures when the light#s better tomorrow. I agree though, I have it swatched on white paper and it's a pinky warm purple, but the more it fades the more blue tones appear. I wonder if it's like the new Directions Plum formula that eventually fades turquoise :/ I'll keep you posted!
Addendum: A vitamin c treatment has revealed turquoise-green tones. Boooo.

After Vitamin C + shampoo:
Oh man π what is with these sticky turquose fades?
I've given it another shampoo and its pretty much given up any pretence at being purple. :laugh: It's fascinating how this purple seems to fade in layers, red first (the vit c treatment lather was a very pink) then blue, leaving the green behind. Molecule size? The green component somehow infiltrates deepest.
At least I'm quite fond of the peacock green it's left behind, just a shame my base was so uneven.
Aww damn, I'm glad I saw your post before using it! Looks like I am going to be buying a different purple then π
