Hey guys.
So ive posted before about trying to get my hair purple.
I tried lightening it originally and it lightened to an orangey colour, i put crazy colors hot purple mixed with a small amount of one of their pink colours and i ended up with bright purple roots, bright purple pannels from a previous hair lightening that lightened up again, but the rest went dark red. Then i used two colour b4s and it came out a lovely blonde with bits of lilac, pink and blue, as you can see in the first two pictures. I then dyed again over that hoping that it would work out but it happened again only making it a slightly more purple toned red where it was previously dark red. The third picture is my hair now faded out a little, purple roots, reddish hair, blue pannels.
I have bought pravana violet, and i would really like it to work this time. What would you recommend? I really dont want to peroxide my hair, i know it wont lighten to anything other than orange without seriously damaging my hair.
What can you guys recommend? And can you please tell me where ive gone wrong so i know what not to do again haha!
Thanks!

I think your hair is too dark for the colors you are using.

You may have good luck with the Pravana Violet. I've used that over dark hair and you could still see it in the sun. So over the lighter hair it should work. Make sure to do the roots last, especially since that's the only thing that seems to be taking the purple so far.
