I just love this colour! It starts out the darkest of rich bluey purples, with streaks that look almost black in certain lights. It fades through endless shades of purple to a gorgeous magenta pink, getting brighter as it fades. Pretty messy to use, and you definitely need dark towels, clothes & pillow cases for the first couple of weeks, but this colour stays looking gorgeous as it fades, and only needs touching up after 6-8 weeks. Briliant! -TankGIrl-
