This was a bit of a strange one actually, i stripped my hair with Colour b4 to begin with, then i applied a bleach bath to the midlengths and ends, and after 30 seconds it went NEON GREEN!! so i rinsed very quickly.. thinking my hair had had a weird chemical reaction to all the different chemicals in my hair, but it was okay, not even damaged.. and it looked AWESOME! xD but i decided to carry on my red mission and used a mix of Poppy red, pillabox red and rose red.. although im annoyed that the rose red made it alot darker than id hoped, but it'll wash out =)

Purple before

After stripping with colour b4 (didnt do much, lightened the top a bit)

After bleaching.. GREEN! and i kid you not it was like, UV green

After applying rose red, pillabox and poppy red

I then coloured some of my hair extensions a mix of poppy red and cerise, and i cut into a fringe, i had a lilacy
extension too which i cut as well.. i then went to the salon i work at and ask my stylist to give me a trim and she straightened it all over, im hoping to get all of my own hair this colour =)



I now have hair to match my room xP

What do u guys think? only a couple of people i know have seen it, and a couple says it looks like a wig, and a couple say they like it.. so i dno -.- lol

The green was a pretty awesome accident.

Looks stunning, but I also love the accidental green!  I would have been tempted to buy some SFX Limelight or Directions Spring Green and put it onto the green area to even it up a bit and see how it looked with the purple!

But the red result is equally stunning and really suits you.

I think both the color and the fringe look great!  As for the accidental green.  This happened when I bleach my purple just last month too!  I was so astonished.  I guess maybe it's a purple thing?
