Purple hair!
 

I absoloutely love this hair style, colour mainly, but i'm just curious as to is it actually possible to do in a hairdressers?!

*EDIT* Please credit your picture source :flower:

Of course!

My friend has purple hair with pink streaks in, and she got it done at a hair salon :D

You may have to look around to find one that does it, but they do :woot:

About purple hair, has anyone tried the Color Pulse in Chilled Plum by L'Oreal? I've been curious about it for a while. Even though it says it comes out in 8-10 shampoos, I'm worried it'll wash out unevenly.

Color Pulse is fairly light, it'll be totally gone in less than two weeks.

Hey thanks alot for the answers i didn't want to seem silly by going into a hairdressers and being told "No love thats done with the cameras" lol, well yay hopefully have cool hair soon!
And no sorry i haven't tried that Paulia!

I have just put on the Red Pulse and it seems pretty bright (but not shockingly so - same as other brands' permanent red hair dyes)

(it was also a non-stinky non-mix foam, but I think you don't get as much dye as usual)

I have not washed with shampoo yet but I expect it will fade fast.

the blonde kind did nothing for me..

I love this kind of purple

Hey yeah that purples nice! Sorry Hipkitten, i got the picture off her from the gemma ward thread so i don't know the source other then on here!

I've just realised what those loreal pulse things are, i used one a while ago and it worked quite well, there was ALOT of mouse in it. However i think it only worked well because my hair was blonde then and i dyed it the reddy colour!

Joss Stone did this look a few years back.

Which shampoo and conditioner would be the best at maintaining the purple dye?

I've tried every single purple hair dye there is (I'm not exaggerating, I've tried everything from L'Oréal, Schwarzkopf, Syoss, Wella, etc.) and I still haven't found one that won't fade to pale red after two weeks. It's quite frustrating. There used to be one that was pretty good, it was by Poly Brillance and the color was called Tokio Black Purple, but it was a special edition that was only available for about a year :(

My hair usually looks like this when I use "dark purple" or "plum" and what's it all called, so not really purple, more berry colored or reddish brown (my natural hair color is ash blonde):

What dye did you use in the bottom picture, Psylocke?

Here's another one of my purple hair

I'm not entirely sure which dye I used in the second one because I've used so many. All I know for sure is that that it's one by Schwarzkopf because they're the only dyes that really made my hair purple.

My guess is that it was this one:

Schwarkopf Brillance Luminance, Nr.860 "ultra violet"

I also really like these and used these very often:

^^^^ Thanks for that. I currently use a red shade of Schwarzkopf's Colour Brilliance. Just wondering, did you have previously coloured hair before you applied the purple dye? I am just hoping my hair doesn't fall off/out!
