      What’s consider a professional setting? Because I work in a corporate office as a technical designer and have purple AND pink hair. Everyday I have someone stop me in the hallway and ask what colors I use.

      Professional means having a profession. It has nothing to do with appearance. It’s all about your attitude and character when dealing with whoever you deal with on a daily basis. Teachers are professional, athletes are professional, lawyers are professional. They all have different ways of dressing in their work environment. Your attitude sucks. I feel sorry for the one who has to deal with you on a daily basis. ?

      Maybe where you work, but not where I work. Where I work and where a lot of people work appearance matters and she wouldn’t cut it based on that alone. Don’t like it? Complain to someone else. And I don’t know one teacher or real professional with purple or pink hair. And you realize you didn’t have to comment on this. You chose to. So chose not to deal with me. Not that I would be deal with anyone like you anyway. And I wouldnt deal with the purplehead monster either. Move on with your life.

      Sindy,

      Again, I work for the city in a major Library there is colored hair. Teachers have tattoos and piercings as well. Your concept of professional doesn’t matter if you aren’t doing the hiring.

      Your passion on this subject is far reaching, but you should understand that being right for you doesn’t make it right for the world.

      I worked for the state board and they allowed me to express my self freely. I’ve had red hair. I’ve even had rainbow hair. I got most of my negative comments. From ppl in the church

    I’m so sick of seeing comments regarding career or work environment on hair pictures. Everyone does not want to b in corporate America. And some ppl own their own businesses or organizations or even stay home while the spouse works. Some ppl actually have the freedom to express their selves as they see fit.

      Well good for those people that can express themselves …. But purple hair won’t for the rest of us that work professional jobs. If you are offended by these type of comments then keep scrolling lol.

    There is no way this is the same pesos with the kinky hair. Also to get your hair that deep violet color you will have to totally bleach your hair then dye it this deep purple color. This is not a regular hair rinse.

    I hate seeing negative reviews about this being “ratchet” & unprofessional though smh but we’re always considered ratchet if we try different styles or fashion while the other is called “iconic/trendy/rebellious/edgy”?but that’s not my business though smh

    I used Adore brand rinse and got this color. It did not last long (I’m a short natural so I wash/rinse my hair multiple times a week), but it works without bleaching. For Dark hair you will have to leave it on for a while but it works. For reds I use Loreal for Dark Hair Red, mixed with 30 proof developer. That is a permanent color. It fades a bit over time to a coppery color because of how often I wash/rinse, but again, no bleach. Loreal is at Sallys. Adore comes in a white bottle and is at most hair stores.

      Thanks!! This will help my daughter, she wants to go like a deep burgandy, and someine said use clairol golden blonde for blk women, to lighten, then use a color rinse, the lady at the store said use crimson Red..it was in a white bottle. Her hair is DARK brown/blk.
      Does tht sound right?

      The Loreal comes in a rectangle red and black box. That tube, plus the developer works without going blonde first. Loreal does have a Blonde for Dark hair also that doesn’t use bleach, but the Red + developer is enough to get the color you want. I got burgundy, red, and copper before trying get different shades.

      I left it on my natural hair for about 45-60 mins since it was a rinse to go darker. But I’m not sure what the instructions said to be honest, and I could have gone longer I’m sure. It’s going lighter where you have to really be careful about times and stripping your hair (like reds).

    If this is a color you ladies are interested in, why bother using chemical dyes? Just use a strong staining vegetable dye. Especially the purples or reds! I got all my vibrant colors from good old manic panic and despite what everyone says about it, I have had no really complaint about how it lasts. I’ve had my hair this color for the past 2 months.
