The Best Purple Hair Dye

Now that you’ve decided that purple hair is the colour for you, you simply have to delve further into the shades. It’s fair to say that purple as a colour has one of the most diverse palettes. From punk pop stars to pastel princesses, when it comes to purple, there are just too many styles that you’ll want to try out! Here’s how we separate out our shades:

Bold & Beautiful – darker purples can help you achieve that sought after plum hair colour. Plum shades can range from loud vibrant violets to muted indigo tones. If you like to wear your colour with intensity and pride, there’s plenty of violet hair dye that you’re sure to fall in love with
Sharp & Sophisticated – you can easily choose some purple shades for smarter purple tones. Some dyes blend a delectable dark red with succinct purple undertones for a crisp purple look. So many people have tried out eggplant hair colour seeing awesome aubergine results.
Light & Lovely - pastel hair dyes are a perfect lighter purple shade. As well as the bold and bright purples, you should always take the time to consider softer lilac and lavender hair colour options.

No matter what your purple preference, you won’t find a shade that hasn’t been lovingly tried and tested. There are plenty of purple hair celebrities who have rocked purple hair at some point. The likes of Jessie J, Kesha, Katy Perry and Kelly Osbourne have tried out a purple style – now you too can get the colour to match! See a list of classic celebrity purple hair dye styles below:

Unleashing Vibrant Shades – let’s face it, we can’t think of purple hair colour without first considering some of the most vibrant neon shades possible. Dazzling colours of dark purple dye are perfect for creating strong alternative looks.

With products such as Crazy Color Semi-Permanent Hair Dye (Violette) or Manic Panic Amplified Semi-Permanent Hair Dye (Purple Haze), you’ll be sporting a new hairdo within no time.
Delicate Floral Tones – at the softer end of the purple spectrum, you’ll find muted tones of lilac and lavender hair dye. The pastel shades ensure a delicate look that makes a subtle change to lighter tones of hair such as blonde. Some of our products such as the Manic Panic High Voltage Classic Cream Hair Dye (Lie Locks) are certain to provide the understated look you’ve been looking for. Stars such as Kelly Osbourne, Kesha and Taylor Swift have all dabbled with light purple hair tones to create smart and modest purple hairstyles.

The purple plum shades offer a rich shade of hair dye which gives a sharp and sophisticated finish.
