Purple hair dye

6 replies

DD15 is keen to dye her hair purple for the school hols. We will need it to have washed out by Sept (or capable of dying over it)- can anyone recommend any brands?

I know box dyes aren’t great for your hair but not sure what other options we have, as our hairdresser won’t dye it till she is 16 in Nov.

I used crazy colors on my DD and it washed out in a few washes.

What colour is her hair?

My DD uses Manic Panic, it's a temporary but is ok on her mid brunette hair. Gives it a purple tone even if it's not bright purple. You could just do the ends if you're worried about it not shifting and cut them if needed.

It’s naturally a sandy brown (blonde as a little girl), but dyed copper coloured about 6 months ago. So I’ve no idea how the box dye will react to the faded red dye.
