Pastel purple or pink hair on virgin Asian hair: maintenance and fade?
Hi! I've heard lilac/lavender is notoriously hard to maintain. I've been debating between a pastel pink/purple and leaning towards a kind of in-between colour. Curious how this would fade. Would it just become muddy, go back blonde or something else entirely? Would it be unrealistic to maintain this tone/shade? If so, is the likelihood that it would end up cooler, warmer, more pink/purple, darker etc during maintenance? I've heard of purple dyes that fade pink (good) or blue (I want to avoid as I've done that before). Not sure if the pastel pink would also just go blonde or orange or what.
Also will it literally last me 3 washes or is there any hope of a longer life 😅
My natural har is basically black (seriously dark brown) virgin East Asian hair. I know that means serious bleaching. I would want the colour below ear/chin, so maybe like a bit of the black to brown to purple gradual fade like the pink in 2nd photo. If that isn't insane/unrealistic. I genuinely just don't know! Please help. Please feel free to sway me towards pink or a natural colour and avoiding the pastel hassle. (Especially if you think I could dye my hair bronde and do a temp dye to achieve these looks.) Thank you so much!!
