Another Update Of Colors

I last posted in February when I mixed a few dyes together and got a dark purple color as a result. That color lasted a very long time and as it faded it was really cool. Since it was different colors and brands mixed together, it had many different shades appear.

Once the purple faded a good amount I covered my whole head in N'Rage Twisted Teal. Since there were hints of the purple, white, and pink it came out with a few different shades of blue.

I was tired of blues and purples and I thought I would try going with a more natural red head color. Since I was going to the opposite end of the color wheel I needed to bleach my hair. It took two bleachings even with the blue being pretty faded. I had not bleached my hair since last July so my roots were quite long as well.

 I was intending for it to be a redish orange. It turned out being very very orange. It faded pretty quickly into a strawberry blonde color.

Since my roots are dark I decided to go back to a darker color. I had a lot of dye left over from the purple mix I made back in February. I added about 1/3 of a bottle of leftover N'Rage Twisted Teal to the mix. I also added about ten pumps of L'Oreal EverStrong Sulfate Free Overnight Repair to the mix to lighten the color a little and help repair the damage caused by the bleachings I did. This time I did not leave my dye in overnight like I usually do. I only left it in for an hour. I am very pleased with the result. I wish I could get a better picture of what it looks like in person, it has so many different shades of purple, blue, and teal.

Updated Colors Since Last Post

I have been through a few more colors and felt I should do a little update. 

The green hair from last post was fun and it lasted quite awhile. I wanted to try something new. I started by bleaching and toning my hair to a very white blonde. I left it alone for about one week so it could have time to repair a little. 

I chose to do purple and green this time. The green dye I mixed myself and I mixed so many things into it I can't remember what I did. I wish I would have written it down somewhere because I loved the color! I used Manic Panic Ultra Violet for the purple. 

I was very happy with the colors until the third wash. I was so very disappointed how faded the purple was so quickly. :( The green stayed for quite awhile longer. I let it all mostly fade to blonde again before I dyed it again.

I did all over blue with N' Rage Cobalt Blue. I think this will always be my favorite color. 

This color lasts so long. This is what it faded to after about 9 weeks. I redyed it the same blue for a few months. I decided to try something new again.

This is the color it still was when I put the purple dye on it.

I did a big mix of purples I still had and left over blue. I was weary to use the Manic Panic Ultra Violet after how quickly it faded before. I decided to use it anyway.

It came out to be a very dark purple. Indoors it looks almost black. In the sunlight it is a very very bright purple. Now that I have had it for about a month it is still fully covered and beautiful. It has faded slightly so it doesn't look as dark indoors now. I love it, but I love my blue more. :)
