Today, I was dying my hair a subtly different color. It was only supposed to turn my hair a shade or two lighter, but it seems someone at the store thought it would be funny to switch the dye in the boxes around. My hair is purple. FML

It was my first time getting my hair dyed, and I only wanted it a little lighter and not pay 100 dollars compared to 10 dollars haha. And it sucked because I had to go to my waitressing job at a fancy restaurant right afterwords.

>Goes to store and buys box color > Surprised when hair turns purple. Box color can do loads of unexpected shit to your hair. This was your fault.

You missed the part where the colors were switched. So, this isn't a YDI.

did you leave the color in longer than called for? that can result in a different color than you'd expected.

No, it can't. When the color is done processing, it doesn't turn your hair darker or a different color. It just sits there.

Purple hair is awesome, just rock the shit out of it !

Purple hair actually suits some people... Maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones? But regardless of if it looks good on you or not, it's still unfortunate that you had to deal with that. Some people just don't think about how their actions will affect other people.

It's too bad that happened to you, but I say roll with it! (provided, of course, that you are working in a profession where purple hair would not be frowned upon..)

you didnt realize the dye was purple?

My dye looks purple in the bottle, yet it is actually auburn, so it is hard to tell.

Even bleach and blonde dyes and toners look purple...

The unprocessed dye color often does not match the finished color.
