Sorry to hear about your plum hair.I'm not really familar with wella,but I know alot of the girls on here use it.Did you use permanate or a semi-permanate?
If it was semi,or demi,you could try Clairol Metalex
an oil based product that removes color and conditons and gives hair gloss before re-coloring.
 
or UNCOLOR which has both for temporary and permante kinds:
(I used once to remove an awful natural instincts color I tried that left me looking like Ronald Mcdonald's twin)
 
Color Oops and color zap are also great options.
 
Or you could try re-coloring with a different base to try to counteract the purple.I'm not really sure what color would counteract purple,I think it may be something with a yellow/orange base.
Try reading claude's introduction to color sticky thread:
 
 
Any ladies here know what color counteracts purple???

MY HAIR IS NATURALLY MED BROWN BLEACHED BLOND WITH A RECENT COLOR TOUCH UP TO NEW GROWTH THAT LEFT 2 INCHES BRASSY ORANGE ON TOP AND THE REST A WAS A LIGHTER BLOND.

I WANTED TO GO WITH A NICE CHOCOLATE CHERRY COLOR, SINCE BY ENDS WERE A BIT DRY AND I WAS WORRIED ABOUT POSSIBILITY OF UNEVEN COLOR. I FIRST USED A BROWN FILLER.

I THEN PROCEEDED TO COLOR MY HAIR WITH WELLA PROFESSIONAL COLOR W/20% DEVELOPER AS ACCORDING TO PACKAGE DIRECTIONS  PROCESSED IT FOR 30 MIN.....THE COLOR LOOKED FINE AS I CHECKED IT BEFORE I RINSED OUT THE HAIR BUT AS I WAS DRYING IT MY HAIR  LOOKED MORE AND MORE PLUM THAN CHERRY CHOCOLATE RED. PLEASE HELP MY CHILDREN ARE CALLING ME BARNEY AND CO-WORKERS THE PLUM FAERIE....WHAT CAN I DO...I WAS THINKING TO STRIP THE HAIR W/COLOR ZAP OR SIMILAR PRODUCT AND TRY ANOTHER RED COLOR WHAT CAN YOU SUGGEST WHAT IS BEST MY HAIR IS FINE THING AND CURLY.
