Purple dye help & advice please

I've just purchased adore to replace my SFX. It's completely different texture wise. Very watery, so be prepared for that. I'm simply used to using sfx for so long I'm trying to determine best avenues to apply it. I've been told adore is very strong in pigment, so using a wee bit of conditioner to make it more manageable won't ruin the pigment that much if needed. I still have a tad of sfx left so I'll be mixing mine with that tonight. Let you know how it turns out. Sfx needs to get back on the shelves pronto! 

Woo hooo can't wait to see your purple - i'm also going purple for the first time too 🙂

Thanks  😉
I just hope the Adore purple rage will cover my badly faded hair evenly. Ive got bit of blood red maybe I could add bit to thicken it along with conditioner?.Gonna do another fade treatment later, last one worked quite well.
Hope yours turns out fab replicantgirl you'll have to post piccys when its done, from what ive read on here most people really happy with Adore. 🙂

Hi Nirvana Girl cross post then 🙂
What purple you going? Sure it'll look fab all your colours come turn out lush. I really loved Directions Plum the old one,regret not trying it now before they messed about with shades. 🙁
Cant wait to see your purple too 🙂
My hairs gross at mo roots galore, about 5 diff shades...I hate it

I still have an old tub of plum in my collection. Well i have 3 purples, MP Ultra Violet, CC Hot Purple & SPX Pimpin - so i havent decided, i'm gonna choose once a see how light my hair goes. I'd love Adore Purple Gem is it? Glitterpix has the perfect purple shade but not sure how light / dark my purple will be yet.....

Combining adore and sfx just watered down the sfx. 🙁 but others have added in that the color won't dilute if only using a small amount of conditioner with adore. That will be my next go round. 😉 I just used it neat and the result came out very close to sfx cherry bomb. So there ya go. Works great! I've updated my profile to show the result.

Let us know how the Purple Rage goes! @BabyJ could probably give you some info on it, she has a ton of experience with purples! I don't think it's very available over there, but in the future if you liked the old Direction Plum, Punky Color Plum is pretty much the same color, very pink based + really pretty, and is long lasting too 🙂

Thanks,Replicantgirl ive seen you're hair, its turned out gorgeous. Love it *1*
Katie I'll have look for BabyJ too. Not sure how available punky is over here, don't think its easy to get hold of, will have to check. I've read somewhere prob on here, that bit of cerise mixed with new plum turns out similar to the old one.
I'll post pics when I've done it, prob end of week/weekend after another fading and coconut oiling. Thanks everyone can't wait never been purple before!
