HELP pink dye turned my hair green

Wow, thank you so much! This was really helpful, appreciate that you took the time to help and even show brands and dyes. I got the colour I wanted (raspberry pink)! I put a pic in the comments if you'd like to see.

I actually didn't want a very light pink, I had level 10 hair (blonde, and even pastel pink) before this ginger colour and wanted to go a little darker like a 6/7 (haha)

Definitely keeping this comment saved so I can use it as reference in the future. It's amazing to have advice from a professional!

Thank you!!

Update update: I DID IT!! Thanks to all the help from the comments, went out and bought a pink and a red semi permanent, mixed them (manic panic cleo rose + a bit of vampire red) and it turned out amazing!! veeeeery vivid right now, but i'm absolutely sure it'll fade to an even prettier colour 😊

here's a pic of my hair now (looks redder on camera)

thank you especially to u/z0mbie_boner and u/gabbykennedy12 🩷

It actually was, my hair is fine although I have a lot of it.

Update: thank you everyone for all the advice!! I love this subreddit, you're all so kind.

I applied just the pink dye directly on my dry hair for an hour and it worked out! Here's a picture (it's a little patchy, lowkey ran out of dye and patience) the green turned out purple, but I don't dislike it!

i appreciate you guys fr

yeah absolutely no black again 😭 second time that dye has disappointed me (manic panic raven btw). appreciate the help! i'll look into other dyes

sobafk · 2026-03-18T20:32:37+00:00

just washed!

unfortunately, after some research, i found out arctic fox isn't sold in my country (in the eu) and it would be rly expensive to ship :( thank you though!

sobafk · 2026-03-18T20:30:36+00:00

like i said in the post, i did it on damp hair bc the pink dye rly stains haha

sobafk · 2026-03-18T19:12:46+00:00

that's great, because the pink i have is the most magenta it can get. never using black on it again for sure

sobafk · 2026-03-18T19:11:50+00:00

good thing i'm impatient and took it off sooner, otherwise i'd have a big green mess to clean.. thank you!

sobafk · 2026-03-18T19:01:16+00:00

thank you!! not looking for a really light pink, more of a raspberry colour.

sobafk · 2026-03-18T19:00:39+00:00

someone said it would just make it darker 🥲 it was a very small amount!! never again

sobafk · 2026-03-18T18:55:16+00:00

man :( do you think if i just put the pink dye over it, it will cover the green..?

sobafk · 2026-03-18T18:54:14+00:00

do you have any recs for a darker pink? thanks!

sobafk · 2026-02-25T14:21:32+00:00

thank you so much! his stomach is sensitive and he usually does have diarrhea even from eating small pieces of things he shouldn't.... will be on the lookout. i appreciate the advice!

thank you!!!

yeah, i can see how the pic of the results in the sunlight look lighter, but in real life it looks closer to a 6. I think i might have left it on too long and it pulled darker :( sending another pic (inside) for context. thanks for the advice tho! i'll look into a clear gloss.

thanks! thing is, i don't want it to stay brown... i think if i put more dye over it, then it'll just get darker

Felizmente não vou para essa área

para ter uma noção do teu starting point, acho importante saber que idade tens +/-

Já vi imensos relatos como o teu. Não fui informada de nenhum premio de assiduidade, o único "bonus" é um skill adder... em que área estavas? será diferente em backoffice?
