Both renders are HairGlam output. In the app the shade lands on your photo instead.

Violet forgives a rough bleach, because purple pigment covers residual warmth instead of being wrecked by it. On the ends it reads dense and glossy in shade and opens to a brighter grape in sun. The fade is graceful, dropping to a dusty lilac and then a silvery gray-lavender, which means the growing out stage still looks deliberate rather than neglected.

  • Undertonecool. Purple stays cool at every dilution, so it holds clean against pink and olive undertones and separates sharply from a warm brown base.
  • Starting pointThe ends need lifting to a light yellow around level eight, though violet is tolerant enough that slight warmth left behind will not wreck the result.
  • UpkeepA gloss or color conditioner every four to six weeks holds the depth, there is no scalp regrowth to correct, and the bleached section wants a weekly bond treatment.

Try it before the bleach

Color is the expensive mistake to get wrong. Put Violet Purple Dip Dye against your own skin tone first.
