Do you like bright hair color ideas? Then this bob hairstyle with blue and purple ombre might work great for you.

Keep in mind that this hair color can be achieved only if you get your tresses bleached. Well, unless your natural hair color is platinum blonde, of course. Most bright, unnatural shades are not permanent. It means that they can’t lift your hair color lighter, comparing to its current state. Such dye can only deposit color. Thus, pre-bleaching is something inevitable if you go for dye, not for alternative hair coloring techniques.

You can fix it by using purple shampoo every time it starts to turn green. Just do not use it too often.

How to get rid of blue and purple hair?

It is a complicated process which requires several salon appointments. It includes color corrections, bleach washes, bleaching roots so the washed out pastel color blends in better. You can wash your hair at home with a mix of vitamin c tablets and dandruff shampoo, use oils and hair masks to lighten the color.
