I dyed my hair..purple!
I'm a hair dye beginner (I've done maybe five box dyes in my life, and have had it professionally dyed only once), but I wanted to try something different...my hairdresser bailed on me kinda last minute, so I spent the past week trying to get my hair from this....![](https://asset-cf-cdn.glowing.com/forum/2df1793e25bb702f8652092b516e21e8.jpg)

I did a "bleach bath" (mixing your bleach mix with shampoo to make it gentler-something I discovered thanks to the Internet) to lift the color from my roots and take some of the old color out, then I dyed it the following day with a "permanent" dye that promptly washed out only a week later, leaving me with this: (it's supposed to be vivacious red...there was nothing vivacious about my hair after I washed it😒...you can also see how patchy and crappy my bleach job was😩)

Finally, I applied a mix of Adore's semi-permanent raging red and rich eggplant. I mixed the two colors together with some conditioner, then applied it, left it for an hour, and washed it out. I'm digging the finished product!!!
