Do I need to re-bleach? I bleached my med brown hair to put on Electric blue 3 months ago and now am thinking I want to go purple.

Yes, you will want to remove as much of the blue as possible to achieve the best looking purple. Your hair will not need to be white, but you should lift the color as much as possible without damaging your hair.

It's a good idea to rebleach to white if possible to get the full vibrancy of color. Remember to condition!

Yes you would need to blech your hair again since this is permanent color. You can also try Satin color remover.

I personally would rebleach my roots/ new growth....as for the rest of the hair (guessing your at the washed out blue stage) I would not rebleach and apply the purple over the blue those sections might be darker purple but should still look purple. Good luck!

If you leave in the dye for a while it should take fine but when it fades a bit it'll probably look like a more blue purple

That blue is light enough to put the purple this purple on it you dont have to.I would show you a picture of my hair but I don't know how to upload..I have the blue and I added purple on the back and it cover the blue just fine. No need of bleach

I'd say yes only because otherwise you'll get a triple tone Highlight. If you're ok with that then go for it. I had medium brown but went to black base and blue highlights (via bleaching the highlighted portion). I also had to retouch the blonde portion every two weeks.

I've used red (unbleached) & pink (bleached) on my daughter's dark brown hair. If you don't bleach your hair, it will have a slight tint but still looks good! If you want the full effect, then yes, with darker hair, you would have to bleach first. If you go onto the Manic Panic website, you can see actual photos of people.

you don't HAVE to, but how the difference is huge! it still looks fine, but if bleached before the color is extremely vibrant/intense! if you have blonde hair it'd probably work just as well.

Buy another dye. Cause the color will not show in your hair. Plus it turns dark purple.

I used the dark purple on my unbleached dark brown hair 3 weeks ago and it hasn't faded at all. The color lightens a little but it isn't any less vibrant. This is definitely a permanent color, but be careful when you shower because even now when I shampoo my water runs purple.

Bleaching is necessary to make the color stand out. Anyone with hair brown-black must lighten their hair first.

it all depends on how light that section of your hair is. the lighter our hair is, the brighter your color will look. The only thing you can do is bleach that section out again (but for only a short amount of time), or just accept that funky spot as part of your unintentional style :)

I have - my hair is pretty dark, so the blue doesn't pop like if I were to bleach it. However, with how well it does work, with a lighter color like you mentioned, I think it would still hold pretty well. This is honestly the best stuff I've found in 10+ years of dying my hair funky colors. Let us know what you think if you take the plunge!! :)

Yes it will! It will be a darker purple but will still look very vibrant under the sunlight. I actually dyed my light brown hair without lightening it but had to bleach my dark roots. My roots have faded way faster than the rest of my hair did!

This product is really good! It will stain anything. It catches on better on bleached hair of coarse. If your hair is not almost confused as a light brown colour then you should be okay. It should get on pretty well and last long enough! Maybe a little more than two month. Just make sure to apply it correctly! Good luck�

Depending on how ur hair will take the bleach it might take 2 or 3 times to get it light enough. The first time it turned my hair orange then lighter orange and then finally a dirty blond.

This one comes w/ bleach powder already, so u'll be bleach your hair along w/ the dye. Don't pre-bleach it. Because all Palty's products targeting at Asian black hair, I would say leave the bleach out when you dye your hair since you already got medium brown. But if you want your hair look just like the picture shown on the box, bleach it!!

When I wear it people say things like "I love your purple hair". Have you seen blue-black hair before? It's kinda like that but the purple is a bit more intense. It's both, but I guess if you were to say that one was more prominent than the other then it would be more purple.I hope I'm making sense.

hi sheila = i've been using it for 4 months now. it makes my hair shiny and blends the colors. i don't see any purple in it. the white is brighter, but still white.

I didn't. The color came out a beautiful brown. I note as it faded, it had an ashy tone which my hair stylist said is due to the base which lacks any yellow tones. So I switched to medium golden brown which leaves me with golden highlights in the brown. My hair is brown originally. The cosamo colors both worked well but I do find they fade quickly after washing a few times. I leave the color on 40 minutes. That's all I can say, I had no purple.

I don't think it would hurt to put the dye in after u bleach your hair. I color my hair as offend as I need it. You shouldn't have any problems..

It depends on how long u leave it for. I had dark brown hair & my first time bleaching it, it turn orange blonde hair that's because I didn't leave it for long. But u should try it so YOU know the results for yourself.
