Hi *waves*
I currently have a light blond, almost white color in my hair and I want to dye it a "mid-dark silver" color, kinda like this:
What kind of colors do I need to mix? I'm pretty sure I need to mix violet and blue, but directions (I can only order directions from where I live) have like 3 diffrent purples and blues, so which one should I choose?
Many hugs,
Eliza
Directions Silver will get you to that colour if your hair is light enough. Neon Blue can also be used diluted to make a silver toner or added to the Silver.
Neon blue works pretty well as a toner. Violet was a total waste of money for me - it didn't really dye my hair and I couldn't see any difference when used as a toner as well...
Wicked Pixie: I really don't want to spend much money on a pre-made toner since I have kinda thick hair and I need like 3 jars of directions What's the diffrence between neon blue and midnight blue? I've heard that you can use midnight blue to tone your hair to silver.
Realize: Okay thank you! I rarely use violet as a toner, just when i need to get a cooler tone to my hair. But it only works on really light hair, which I don't have right now...
Midnight blue is much darker and not as purple based. Neon Blue is pretty dark, and goes a long way when diluted, it would be a better choice than Midnight IMO, you need some purple in there. If you already have it in, try mixing with some pink and diluting. I have had the best results using Neon blue as my base for toners though.
Wicked Pixie: Thank you! I will order Neon Blue right away, with that color, would I need to mix in some purple/pink in that or is neon blue just enough?
It can be used on its own for silver on very pale hair (it is very similar to the Silver toner when diluted) You may need some pink/violet if your hair is very yellow.
Wicked Pixie: My hair has a light green/blue hue (becaus it was previously green, lik in my picture) so then I won't be needing any pink or violet, right?
