needed constant reapplication and wasn't my favorite color "on me"
Not sure how I feel about this stuff honestly. Well, let me correct that, I'm not sure how I feel about Transylvania. Had been using poison and while that washed out quickly, needed constant reapplication and wasn't my favorite color "on me", it faded to a beautiful pink that I was over the moon about. I finally figured out how to dilute it perfectly so that I could skip over the unflattering bright red color and stay at the lovely pink color I preferred. Also had great experience with the purple (can't remember exactly what it was called...) but came out dark vibrant purple and went through an array of beautiful purples before it settled into a gorgeous lavender that it stayed at for awhile. The purple so far has been my favorite of all the colors I've tried. Currently am using Transylvania. I was homesick for my natural dark hair but didn't want a permanent color that I would have to rebleach out once I was sick of it like I quickly am. Am finding that unlike the other colors it doesn't fade away as quickly or as completely which should be thrilling but is actually disappointing since it was why I got it to begin with. I just wanted to revisit my dark hair, not live with it forever. Am worried will have to rebleach it to get it all out which is what I'd wanted to avoid to begin with. As far as the color itself - meh. It has gone through some pretty phases but seems to be washing out into this smoky bluish/purple/ green thing that i'm not sure how I feel about. My son described it as "mystical", so that's not all bad. I have found that none of the colors really seem to adhere to my gray hair. They stubbornly refuse to conform. I'm at a place in life where I don't have that many but the ones I DO have are at the front of my hair line and temples and all of the colors will dye it for a day or 2 but not longer then that. The Transylvania however has turned them a weird greenish color that they seem to be holding onto... First pic is "Poison" morning after application. 2nd pic is the purple after a week. 3rd pic is Transylvania about 4 weeks out. 4th pic is Transylvania morning after application. 5th pic is "poison" after about 2 weeks. 6th pic is "Poison" at about 5 weeks which was my favorite <3, very light pastel cotton candy pink. Last pic is Transylvania now about 5 weeks later, you'll notice if you look closely that near my roots it's greenish and that it doesn't cover my gray hair.
