Purple Journey


We are getting closer and closer to dyeing my entire head purple!  This Saturday my best friend Nanc' will be bleaching my hair.  Hopefully (finger's crossed!) we will be able to get it light enough to do the purple.  I am dreading having to bleach it twice and sport crazy blonde hair for a week or two.  :)  I am thinking about going for more of a pastel purple than the true bright bright purple.  I have been testing it on a few of my highlights to see how it works out.  All I have done for these strands is mix one part purple to three parts conditioner.  It's pretty light!  Maybe too light, I might just go with the bright purple instead and let it fade.

What do you think?

  1. Well, I'm still jealous of your soon to be new purple hair! I think maybe between a pastel purple and a medium tone of purple...not eggplant purple. At least with a pastel/medium color you can go darker if you decide to OR if you don't like it you can easily dye it back brown.

  3. Janet - Yes, I am! :P But we're just eloping. I asked Mike if he was afraid to go to the courthouse with me having purple hair and he said no - so it's a go! :P

  7. Let It Be Raw - I'm going to be doing it all solid purple and then in a few weeks I might put a second color in it. :)
