but I'm not sure what kind of color/ brand I should use. My friends already told me manic panic doesn't work well, so I was wondering if creative image adore works all right. Oh, by the way my hair is a dark almost black brown (Asian hair).

Answer 1

Natural Instincts "Egyptian Plum" will make your hair purple in the sun.  I

Answer 2

i disagree. i swear by manic panic. me & a lot of my friends use it with great results if you want really bright wacky colors. my friend did her hair red and it looked AMAZING when she used it. but the only thing the back of her neck got a teensy bit dyed too but she's like clueless sometimes soo.... lol  

Answer 3

Bleach your hair first and use Beyond The Zone.

You can find it at sallys, and I've used 4 of their dyes already.

You don't have to bleach it,

it will just make it brighter and vibrant.

Plus the color lasts about two weeks, then fades to a lighter purple.

Answer 4

100% color by nutrisse has a dye called raven..i think..

but yea manic panic didnt work for me so well.. although punky color did so you could use that as well

if you want it to be brighter .. you can bleach it first but just have in mind that you will damage your hair just a little more so use leave conditioner after and that will help

Answer 5

Special Effects "Deep Purple".

The best hair dye brand, hands down. That stuff stays in forever...
