My hair is medium to dark brown with a kinda reddish warm tint to it. I want to remove the reddish tint and have more of a beigy ashy tint. If I use a gray/blue based brown, what result should I expect? Will it work? Or will my hair turn purple? Help!
Blue based hair color?
Basic chemistry. Look at the colorwheel and pick the opposite color to counteract the current undertone. You are on the right track!
Green actually counteracts red - so you want something with a green tone. Blue/Violet cancels gold/brassy tones - like ones you typically get when lightening hair.
Make sure her hair is damp. Put the color and watch it very carefully. As soon as the red is gone rinse it. Do not leave it on longer than needed or the hair will pull too much green and the hair will look mucky.
Good luck!
Blue based hair color?
Um no it won't be any purple or beigey ashy. what you want is a base with green. stay away from the blue-then you wont get the beigey...you'll look too ashy. if you get a green base color (or an ash) your hair will turn out the way you want............the ash that you want should be a green base. if you use what color you bought, it might turn out with a grayish hue to it. did you go to sally's? or any beauty supply store?- Clariol Professional...you can get it at any beauty supply store, and they will have exactly what you are looking for-and swatches so you can see the colors.
