Hello lovely folk, I have a dilemma!
My hair colour was absolutely perfect when I did it two weeks ago, the Blue Mayhem turned out exactly the colour I wanted (profile picture) and just in time for my holiday to Iceland (which was amazing!) and I even washed it once while I was there and the colour stayed perfect!
On the last day we visited the Blue Lagoon which is outdoor springs/pools heated up totally naturally by the volcanic rocks beneath it! Breathtaking and amazing experience.
We were all told that the water contains lots of salt and sulphur so to tie your hair up if you want to avoid getting it matted etc, or to lather on conditioner before you go in and leave it in.
I didn't plan on getting my hair wet and didn't want it dripping blue so I didn't bother with the conditioner and just left it tied up, however my other half decided to half dunk me in the water whilst messing around and half my hair was soaked with the water (I told him off don't worry!) but this is the nasty result:
I've bought more Blue Mayhem which should arrive in next couple of days, but wondered if I need to do anything to it before I slather it on again? It's all sorts of colours, lilac, grey, green, brown, all sorts of blues etc.
Just want the colour to take as well as it did first time round! 🙂
Thanks in advance!

It'll take the same way as before 🙂
The slightly muddy fade you're seeing is due to your warm base, but it's the same base you had before so It will come out the same way as before.

I know this wasn't intentional but wow, that fade is beautiful!!

Haha I really love the purple, and if it naturally fades to that this time round I'll be so chuffed! But only a tiny portion of it is that nice colour and the rest is like swamp water! 😛

If you want to avoid the muddy fade you will need to further lighten your base on those parts.
If your hair isn't in good enough condition to take more bleaching, you could do purple ends, purple tends to have a prettier fade over a darker base than blue.
