Best staying, Adore or SFX for purples

Hi! I'm finally ordering some dyes next month and I have one quick question. I want purple, a pink purple and not a blue based or violet. So, with that in mind: which brand should I pick? I was thinking either Adore or Special Effects, since I heard those two are the best staying.

Considerations:
-I've already tried Directions plum, turned blue which means green on a base that's not near white. Don't want that anymore.
-Crazy colors suck for me so that won't do either.

Thanks in advance!

I would go for SFX Deep Purple if you want a pink based purple that really lasts

How long does it last in your opinion and / or experience?

I have never used it undiluted, but it is a really strong, highly pigmented purple, the best on the market IMO. It will last for several months, although longevity depends on how often you wash it, products used etc.

Thanks for your input! I'll go for SFX, it's been a long time since I wanted to try it so why not.

You won't be disappointed, as long as you are prepared for the commitment, because it is not easy to shift if you change your mind

Oh believe me, I'm relieved by your words because I'm not really the person to shift colours quickly. In all honesty if it's not purple, I would like Blue hair, so I'm on it!
