and only if done properly (of course). a friend tried to do it herself a few years ago and it ended up looking like really bad regrowth lol

I'm getting a dark midnightish blue. Darker than what I posted earlier. Was thinking of getting red first before, as my dress for Formal is red. :/ Idk.

With a darker colour you won't ever be able to get it out. Especially if it's blue based. I would get red, but a pinkish red.

the hair colour. It will build up and the only way to get rid of it will be to cut your hair.

Hmm, might dye it after Formal then.
Or change my dress colour.
It will stay as that colour though?
Won't fade away?
Because my blue foils went green then blonde, lol.

yeah, it's the black that is the issue. Blue has a developer and some peroxide. Black will stick, especially blue black because it's not warm based so there's no peroxide.

Not dying my hair black. :S I'm dying it over my dark chocolate-ish coloured hair. Can't I just get the blue dyed on it? With the peroxide? Instead of the blue-black.
Slightly confused..

You can get blue on it but it won't be blue black. The only way the blue will come through is if you use peroxide if you have darker hair and that means that it will lighten so the blue will show.

It isn't a dye in so much as it doesn't sit on your hair, it penetrates it when you're using a peroxide or bleach based.

I would honestly advise you to do any other colour which isn't black based. Because they're easy to change and they don't build up. When you dye your hair darker it sits on your hair. When you dye it lighter it penetrates.
