For 2009 I'm going back to my fave hair color blue black. I like to color my hair black for the fall/winter and a burgundy for the spring/summer. 2007 I went to the Dominican Republic and came back with seriously noticeable red hair. Toward the end of 2008 I cut a lot of the color out but the ends were still red and I was tired of it. I either use Feria or Garnier but the beauty supply didn't have them so I picked up my stand by Bigen.
See the color on the ends...
I used 2 boxes of Bigen which was just the right amount for my hair...
Once you mix it with water you get a pretty purple concoction...
Color applied...
Put my plastic cap on and chill for 30-45 minutes...
All rinsed out , no more red ends!
Deep condition with Elasta QP DPR11 mixed with coconut oil
Results...
No flash
I love it! There is a purple black by Feria that I want to try but I haven't seen it anywhere. I do know they sell it overseas. I don't but from overseas sellers so I'm still debating on whether or not I'm going to get it.

Omigosh, your hair is so beautiful! I love the length & the colour too. Did you use a permanent color? or semi-permanent? I've never thought to colour my hair from a box by myself. I've been to chicken to try it... anyway, your hair looks gorgeous & lush.
January 10, 2009 at 12:50 PM@AnyaPosh - Thanks - It's a permanent color. I go between permanent and rinses. Sebastian makes a really nice black cherry rinse.

Hey girlie...i know this is late, but I want to go dark and i remembered your post! So i'm either going to rinse or die my hair black, but I'm not sure if I should choose blue-black or if there's another tone I should try...try and keep my skin tone in mind. what do you think>>
