Oh i thought you asked where you could get Violet, not what would go with it. Nevermind.....



Hmmm...... a Darkish Pink colour.

What? Like multi coloured streaks?

LOL..it's ok..dark pink, hmm, sounds good.

mutli coloured yeah

Have you got purple streaks already? Post a pic so we can see what it would look like...

not yet sorry

Is your whole hair purple, or just streaks?

All dark purple, so i was wondering would dark pink streaks go with it? or any other colours?

Probably a lighter pink, otherwise it'll blend together and you wont notice..

yeah..thanks for the help, i'll try that..

Do you have a picture or anything of what the colour looks like, like from a site or anything?

no i couldn't find one

Caramel would make an interesting contrast, but Mist is right, light pink is good too.

ooo that is interesting

Hmm... a Lighter pink will desensitize the blend. A darker pink would mix in and let in a darker hue into the integrity of your hair. Dark and light would mix up a contrast. Dark and Dark would keep it.

Contrast is good though

so would dark and light pink go better together??

If you want more colors yes, but i do suggest the Intense Violet and a Dark Pink. It'll make your hair look a little sadistic and sexy at the same time. Dark and Light really mess up hair. Trust me on this one.

i wish i had a pic..i'll try and find one of the haircolour

Not really..... Unless you know something about hair, yes?


I don't think truth is involved in the matter, so to say.


But go ahead.


Hit me.

It's funny the way it works.

The, so to say, "more quiet" colors like black/brown/blonde need more of a lighter tone.... Well not really black.... Can't get light with that


But intense colors like Violet, pink or green should be darker. Think about it this way; They are intense enough colors in the first place. If you make them too bright, they will look over-intensive.

I agree. But there's a difference between dying all of your hair bright pink and just streaking it to bring out the violet

yeah..u know your stuff Sorgo

Are you looking for the pink to stand out or just adding in another colour?

Of course! That's why you need to be careful when bleding in different colors..... especially intense colors such as Violet and Pink.

i don't want it to stand out to much..just wanted more than one colour

Yeah, keep it a Dark tone.


Like i said before....


Intense Colors = Dark

Quiet Colors = Light

If you get an Intense color, you don't want to make it bright because it will stand out too far and look awful. A darker coloring for a more intense color will keep it at level.

Plus, Violet and pink kind of go together.


For example....

Now, the Violet has a very dark contrast to it, but the pink is too bright, standing out one part and leaving out the other, which is kind of an imbalance to the coloring. It looks good on a flower, but not with hair!

You're gonna wanna make your hair stand in a with a Dark, dark pink so it blends the intesified colors.

wow that flower is beautiful though..your very right a dark pink as it is going with an intense colour

i can post a pic of what it turns out like if u guys like when i get it done
