Hair dye help - too many brands!

probably best to shave your head and just dye your scalp purple

easier all round

shaving ones head is more difficult than you might imagine.

especially if you have a lotta hair.

(there's a knoxville story in there somewhere)

never tried purple...

<raises hand>

been there, done that, have a photo somewhere

wasn't so hard

I can't help either, Katie, but I sure do sympathize. Hair dye is definately one of those product areas with way too many choices. Why not ask your hair dresser? If she's got an opinion, go with it. If it doesn't work for you, you really haven't lost a whole lot.

I would go with a temporary dye first.

just in case you find out that all your clothes clash with your hair...

(this advice is mostly for roger. brown and purple just doesn't work well)

Brown, purple, or green would be just fine. I'll take what I can get.

On odd colors, though, they mostly work best on blondes, and then, just a playful sprig of color in front.

bright neon blue on coal black hair is insanely beautiful

looks like a crow's wing in the light
