I used the smart pure purple hair colour its meant for the whole head but i chose to do chunky streaks right so heres how it went : I have dyed my hair many times so i felt no reason to do a skin sensitvity test but where im at school i had to do a strand test to check the colour wasnt to bright so i opened the sachet no .2 and poured half a tea spooon of it into the mixing tray which i have to say was quite difficult as it will leak if left open so i balanced it on the box :) then i added half a tea spoon of the tube and mixed with the scahet in the tray until it looked like a proper hair dye ( it took me a while ) i left the colour on a strand of my hair for 40 ...  Read the complete review
