Hair Updates

While I have purple hair, I figured I'm make one more attempt to get stronger color. So more bleaching, and then the purple. Then I'll let my hair grow out and trim the purple until the roots get long enough.


So here are the details of my re-dying attempt.

Bleach with Clairol Textures & Tones Permanent Moisture-Rich Hair Color in Lightest Blonde. This is not made for white girls like me, but my hair was resistant to bleaching last time and this was cheap, so I figured it would be my best bet. And it did work much better than with the Splat color bleaching method.







This time my purpling product was initially Manic Panic Semi-Permanent Hair Color Cream in Ultra Violet. But I found one container was not enough for all my hair. Also, this violet shade is very blue-toned. So the top of may hair looked purple in sunlight but dark blue in the shade and indoors, the rest of my hair was a light brown from the bleaching.






Not enough product, so got some Jerome Russell Semi Permanent Punky Colour Hair Cream, this time in Violet, and did the rest of my hair and blended it with the other color up top. It looks pretty dark in the pictures, and still looks bluish indoors and in the shade, but I am hoping it fades more purple (less red-toned like previously). I will also try to get some better pictures of the color... Here's what I've got:




That's where I am with my purpling hair attempts. :)
