I should have known better (long)

So, the last time I dyed my hair I ran out of my main color and had a small portion at the nape of my neck that was not going to get covered. Now I should have know better than to dye it MP Rockabilly Blue!! Why, oh why didn't I just leave well enough alone and leave it blonde until I could purchase another pot of Ultra Violet. So now I am stuck with this blue piece that is really bugging me.

If you would lend me you opinions and expertise I would appreciate it.

If I just dye over the one section of blue with the MP Ultra Violet that I originally used, do you think it would fade to a more cohesive color with the rest of my faded color?

I'm really loving the blonde/lilac fade I'm getting, and I'm not sure that I want to do all over ultra violet again. Here is a picture of the blue part.

Ah that fade is just  *loveeyes* Unfourtuantly I have no advice apart from the fact I think the blue looks good with all those lilacy bits!

Thanks Shannon! I really love it. I just get impatient and wanna do something to it, I guess.....haha. I probably would care if it wasn't fading a little grennish in parts around the blue. It's not strong green because my hair was pretty light and hardly had any yellow when I dyed it, but I can see it even if no one else notices[emoji12]

If that's the case, try silver shampoo to take away the yellow πŸ™‚

You could dye a whole under section blue so it looks intentional, or carefully put some pink over the blue streak to make it purple so it blends better. You could try force fading just the blue part so it catches up with the rest too.

You could try fading just the blue bit with head and shoulders perhaps

Edit - sorry Wicked Pixie, just saw you've put pretty much the same thing!
