    Is it possible to achieve a silvery foxy hair from MP atomic turquoise?

    Hi everyone! I know this question has been mentioned before by another forum member (that's actually how I got to know this forum, lol) but I would like to see if in my case I could easily achieve a silvery hair color from fading MP atomic turquoise. Here you can see the pictures of how my hair has been fading through the weeks smile

    I wanna change my hair color because AT was such a difficult color to deal with, and because I got such a pretty long and thick locks and after the bleach they have become very thin and damaged so I'd like to give my hair a rest now it's summer by darken a bit the roots and leave the rest of it silver wink

    Do you think I could easily achieve that color from the one I currently have? Or should it be lighter?

    Thank you so much! <3

    Well, the top bit looks really close, so maybe a bit of warm orange or pink toner and you should be alright. The bottom bit though, they're too dark at the moment, so you'd need more fading. For the pale green bits of the third photo, though, you might be able to make a nice lavender by going pink over them and I think it would look nice mixed in with silver.

    Thank you! I will try to fade more the bottom since I want a greyish tone. My question is, once I achieve the silver, what should I do to maintain it? Will it fade again into green? So I gotta grab a pink dye to retouch it or will it stay platinum/blonde so I buy a lavender shampoo to tone it?

    Some of the darker bits underneath would try and fade them. The lighter bits might be able to apply a very light shade of pink and counter the tiny amounts of green present. Humbly would suggest a bleach bath though which is shampoo mixed with bleach.

    Once silver is obtained would suggest getting a purple based/colored shampoo. Purple shampoo helps to mask/hide the yellowing of hair. In your case maintain the silver color.

    Thank you so much for your answer! I don't want to use any method that damage my hair more so a bleach bath isn't an option for me... :( I faded the color by using B4 color so I might use some more under that darker spots.

    You'll want to grab some pink dye and loads of conditioner to make your own toner. Purple shampoo is meant more for yellow tones that are naturally in your hair, so you'll need something else for unnatural green tones, which can be quite stubborn. You could make your own pink shampoo by just adding a tiny bit of pink to a bottle of regular shampoo, though and it'll work pretty similarly.

    Cool idea! Thank you! Which kind of pinky shade would you recommend? I would ask for a manic panic dye since they sell them near my house smile

    I like Hot Hot Pink, but Cleo Rose should work, too. You could probably even get away with Red Passion.
