Back to my natural colour (blue)! The top is a mix of Adore Royal Navy and Directions Cerise. Then I added Aquamarine and the ends were supposed to be mint but they ended up a bit blue. I think the ends will lighten up after a couple of washes. I'm thinking of adding some yellow to make them greener.

Excuse the weird photo; I grabbed this still from a video that I'm making. I've used a mixture of Lagoon Blue, Carnation Pink and Cerise to make this purple. The ends were intentionally left lighter but grabbed a bit too much colour when I washed it out. After a few shampoos the dark>light gradient I was planning should be a bit more evident.

This is soft cerise over mostly level 9 blonde with some soft violet slices over the top of the cerise.

Jude — 17/6/2018
I used Pravana Silver mixed 1:1 with conditioner. There are still a few brown strands from the balayage but they're mostly underneath.

It's not perfect, but I'm happy to have some colour again. This is an almost 50:50 mix of Adore Lavender and Soft Lavender. I added a tiny bit of African Violet so that it wouldn't look too pink.

What's this? Natural coloured hair?! It's not staying! Here's my hair 4 weeks after a salon balayage. I like it, but it's not colourful enough for me. It's slightly blonder in real life, so I hope it will take colour. I'm planning to lighten it further in future.
-
Jude — 24/8/2017
Time for an update! I haven't dyed my hair since May and the colour is mostly washed out. I have a few small areas where the purple is hanging on and there's the faint tint of blue and yellow towards the ends of my greys, but it's almost all natural. I'm planning to dye it again soon.

I should really try something new but I keep coming back to these peacock colours. Added fiesta fuchsia over the turquoise-yellow gradient to make the peachy colour at the ends.
-

(Also used Via Turquoise). This picture shows the different layers a bit better and you can also see that there's a lot more purple than the previous photo shows. I left the colours on for over an hour which I think helped it become so saturated.
-
Jude — 11/12/2016
I recoloured my greys, though it looks like my natural hair caught a bit of the colour too. The turquoise used is Via Turquoise which I blended into canary yellow at the front. Behind that I have a mix of turquoise and violet gem to make a violet colour and that's blending into a bluer version of the same mix. Behind that I have violet gem blending into turquoise. I also added a few streaks of Rich Eggplant to add some darkness. I'm really pleased with the outcome this time as usually I can't get such good saturation without bleaching.
-
Jude — 23/8/2016
Managed to dye my greys without bleaching! I did a few gradients: * Yellow > Violet Gem * Tuquoise (Via Living Colors) > Yellow * Violet Gem & Turquoise Mix > Turquoise The rest of my hair was dyed with Directions Midnight Blue which came out a dark blue-black colour with bright blue hairs where the greys are.
-
Jude — 23/8/2016
I also used Via Living Colors Turquoise, which is almost identical to Adore's Aquamarine. I'm pleased with how the colour took to my greys though you can see it's a bit more subtle on my natural hair vs ends which were bleached. The yellow barely shows in photos but it's more noticeable in real life.
-
Jude — 9/4/2016
This is almost all natural, just about 2 inches of bleached and dyed hair at the ends that I'm growing out. I'm now trying to decide whether to keep my natural silver bits or to colour them (if I can get the dye to stick without bleaching).

Just 5 days after the last photo, the sun has faded the colour significantly. 10 days later it's now a silvery cornflower colour.
-
Jude — 29/9/2015
Used Stargazer Dawn diluted a bit with conditioner to make a bright orange and mixed that 50/50 with Directions Carnation Pink and a drop of Adore Violet Gem. I applied this to the bottom. The middle is Stargazer Soft Cerise mixed with Violet Gem. The top is Crazy Color Violette mixed with Carnation Pink. The ends were supposed to be a peachy colour. I did a strand test that came out perfectly, however my hair is really reluctant to take warm colours so it ended up much more pink than intended.
-
Jude — 5/7/2015
Same colours as before but I decided to blend it in with my natural greys a bit more by having a white>turquoise>purple gradient. I used a bit of Pravana Vivids in "Clear" at the top and melted in some Turquoise. Added Violet Gem at the bottom and blended it with the Turquoise. Not sure why I did the weird expression ;)

Turquoise at the top, blended into Violette, Violet Gem and the tips have a mixture of Violet Gem and Dawn to make a kind of raspberry colour, which is not really visible in the photo.

This is a really quick up-do using a 2-pronged kanzashi. It doesn't require any additional clips or elastics and takes about 10 seconds to do!
-
Jude — 10/9/2014
I added some brown so that I wouldn't have to worry about roots as much. The colour towards the front is Soft Cerise. I did a layer below of Violet Gem. I also mixed Violet Gem with Atlantic Blue by Directions for the lower layers which is not visible. The colour is a thick slice going from my parting diagonally towards the back of my head with each colour placed in horizontal panels.

A daylight photo of my diluted Electric Amethyst and Mystic Heather 'do. (See my previous timeline photo for an explanation of how I did it). The colours are a little bit stronger in real life.
-
Jude — 14/9/2013
For this I applied a diluted mixture of Mystic Heather and Electric Amethyst from the middle of my hair to the ends. I then went back over that with Electric Amethyst on the tips. To tone the top of my hair, I further diluted the original mixture with conditioner and applied it to the top half.

Luscious Lavender after a vigorous Vitamin C treatment. It was initially a much darker Cornflower Blue but faded to this gorgeous colour!
-
Jude — 12/7/2013
Trying not to squint but ending up incredulous. This is a post-vitamin c version of Pravana's Luscious Lavender.

New hairdo in sunlight. The sun completely wrecked my colour and I had to recolour it when I got home :(
-
Jude — 8/6/2013
For this colour I used 1 tub of Directions White Toner mixed with 1cm of Pravana Violet and 1cm Silver. It's so nice to be lilac again for the first time in almost exactly 6 years! Unfortunately the colour is already ruined after a day in the sun.
-
Jude — 31/5/2013
I've gone blonde! After 2 colour removers, 2 bleachings, another colour remover and 2 applications of wella koleston in 12/81 it is finally a natural looking blonde and amazingly the condition is still good. I would not recommend this for most people. My aim is to go white so I still have to get it a shade lighter at the ends where it's still a bit darker; more of a honey blonde colour.
-
Jude — 20/1/2013
You can't really see the Plum in this photo. I bleached my hair to a kind of golden blonde since I was trying to achieve more muted colours. I used streaks of Plum, Wild Cherry and Violet Gem and left a few strands blonde. I also toned a few streaks with diluted Violet Gem to give it that orange colour too. The brown is natural(ish).

Same dye job as the previous picture but I've styled it so that some of the Plume layer is overlapping the Fishbowl layer to make streaks of colour.
-
Jude — 13/5/2011
I have a layer of Fishbowl on top, Stargazer Plume below, a slice of Stargazer Rich Wine (can't see it it in this picture), more Plume and the rest below that is Fishbowl again. The colours are still separate but I think the layers in my hair give it a gradient effect.

This is a mixture of about 4 parts turquoise to 1 part midnight blue. I wanted to make a dark turquoise colour because I had quite a lot of faded purple to cover up.
-
Jude — 6/1/2011
After the previous plum and orange-red I just dyed over the whole thing with Plum. It's one of my favourite shades. This was it beginning to wash out. I think it was about 5 or 6 weeks after I dyed it.
-
Jude — 16/9/2010
The magenta colour you can see at the front is Plum. I added some streaks of Midnight Blue over the top to make the darker purple streaks. The red is a mixture of Bright Daffodil and Vampire Red. It's more orange in real life. Below that I've used a mixture of Plum and Aubergine in alternating chunks. You can't really see them in the photo but the two shades are almost identical anyway.
-
Jude — 4/8/2009
Finally got my hair cut into a shorter layered do. I have some coloured chunks underneath that aren't shown in this pic.

For the under colour I used mainly Enchanted Forest (gel formula) but added a dollop of turquoise to spice it up a bit. It's more green in real life.

Here's the plum and pillarbox combo in natural light.
-
Jude — 9/11/2007
I did a thick slice of pillarbox red an inch or so either side of my parting. The rest is plum. You can see that the plum bled into the red a bit making it more of a purple shade but I think the two colours work well together.
-
Jude — 18/8/2007
Awful rabbit in the headlights look going on here. This was a 'do I did for my sister's wedding. The pillarbox got some of the turquoise wash-off which is why it's so dark.
-
Jude — 9/7/2007
The greener streaks in this pic are the peacock blue, the rest of it is Directions Turquoise.

I did this in slices of colour. Aubergine came out kind of purple because the blue washed through it a bit, as did the violette.

The top part is dyed Atlantic Blue and I've added some Midnight Blue to the underside to bring out the layers. It's just visible in this photo.
-

Still experimenting with pastels. This was directions Turquoise heavily diluted with conditioner.
-
Jude — 10/6/2006
This was my hair not long after I'd cut it. I bleached the hell out of it to get it near white before applying this colour.

This is fishbowl over faded electric blue.
-
Jude — 31/12/2005
I put these in for New Year's Eve '05. The criss-crossing effect is my (blue) hair braided in with the darker dreads which I think gives it a bit of variety. You'll notice there that some of the black dreads have no blue hair visible - that's because these are double-ended dreads so you only need to braid onto one side. I used 5 packs in total and although it was heavy it wasn't uncomfortable.

The nearly black colour there is Blue Velvet. The purple was more noticeable in real life but it's so hard to photograph in artificial light.
-
Jude — 20/6/2004
It was way more purple in real life but the camera picked it up bluer. Overall it lasted about 3 or 4 weeks so nice for a change but not much of a long-term colour.
-
Jude — 12/12/2003
The white blended in with the blue slightly better in real life. The different shades of blue were more visible.
-
Jude — 26/3/2003
I'm pretty sure this was electric blue, just before my blue velvet obsession that lasted most of 2003 (dye it blue velvet once and it's there for the next six months!). My hair is braided in fishtails. Here's how: http://haircrazy.info/stylingguides/better-braiding/

Back in 1999 most of my hair was black. If you look closely (it's a very badly scanned image), you can see a blue streak there which was probably Directions Atlantic Blue.
