Yesterday i did my hair poppy red, the rootd are nice n bright  but lengths are way darker and im not sure im too keen on the result.  I have one pot of neon blue and a pot of poppy red, also a full pot of a mix of pillarbox red and rubine, and one flamingo pink. Wondering what will the result be if i mix the mixed pot of pillarbox and rubine to the neon blue? Will it go purple and if so will it be a nice cadbury sort of purple?thanks

You'll get a very very dark purpley blue, it actually might not be all that nice.

If it's just the bright roots you don't like, just reapply the dye. It should even out the colour. Or just add a teeny smidge of the neon blue to the red and just do the roots.

What did you put it over? Anything you put on it now will come out very very dark.

You'll just keep getting the same result. Bright roots and dark lengths. You won't get bright colour over brown sadly. The more colour you add the darker it'll get.

Was the brown dye?
