k so i want to dye my tips of my hair or underneath my hair purple (semi-permanent, only for the summer). my mom offered to do it with those at-home applyers. but is it better to get it professionally done in the salon?
and any tips i should know before i dye my hair at home ? (if i do dye it at home,that is)
But if your mom knows what she's doing ((With bleach and dye)) then it should turn out fine.
For me, I had to go to the salon to get my hair bleached and dyed blue. Because I wasn't chancing ruining it.
But if you ((And your mom)) know what you're doing, then go for it at home. It'll definitely be a lot less cheaper.
But I WILL suggest a dye for you.
Special Effects.
It's amazing. I've ONLY heard good reviews for it. Everyone I know that's used it ((And that's a lot)) love it and will never use another dye.
And, from personal experience, the colors turn our bright, and are amazing.
And it's a semi-permanent dye. And there are a few different colors of purples for you to choose, or if you want to do a different color, they have all types.

You will need to bleach your hair in order to have the color. The tips have to turn very blonde before you have the purple show. The more blonde the hair the lighter the color.
