QuoteReplyTopic: looking for DARK purple/plum synth - HELP Posted: March 27 2005 at 4:36pm
Any of you that have color rings for PH/Dome/Trimco/Prostyles, can you
please check and let me know if any of these come in a really dark
purple... like the level of 2/dark brown and a red/violet tone. The ph
brombeere looks too much of a blu-ish toned purple, I want something
that is more the color of a plum or DARK purply wine. Kind of like the shade "99j" but a
little more intense. I want to mix it in with the black for my
underlayers, and then on top put streaks of burgund rot or trimco's
burgundy, and kirschrot. Thanks!!!
Hmmm...well 99J is a dark red/black mix, at least the stuff I've seen,
so I guess I don't have a frame of reference for what you want.
Brombeere is very plummy- definitely a very deep and not neon purple. I
have a hard time telling if it's a red-violet or blue-violet, so I'd
say it's very nearly in the middle, possibly more red. Dome's purple is
similar, except definitely more reddy. Trimco's purple (AR19) is also a
very deep plum color, somewhere in-between Brombeere and Dome
Purple...but they're all very close.
so all 3 of those colors are a very DARK shade? Im looking for
something to intersperse with the black to give it a very dark plum
color and then have my burgundy and kirschrot streaks on top.
hmmmm looking at trimco's color chart, their a19 looks awfully
bright/light to me. is the brombeere and the dome purple darker than
that? also which dome purple are you talking about, plum purple or deep
purple? which one is darker? thanks :)

Just a little chime in
I have three packs on brombeere. When it arrived I wasn't in the
best light and I thought I'd been shipped black by accident. So
it is pretty dark. I'll be blending with with very dark browns
and using bright pink purple and lilac/lavender(veilchen and lila) to
highlight late in the summer. And I agree with Rae. It
doesn't really lean to blue or red. It's a very true plum
purple. On my screen its about the right darkness on the PH
website but slightly bluer than real life.
I dunno which chart you're referring to, but it's a medium purple at
the very lightest. It's definitely a plum. Oh, and for the Dome, I mean
the Violet (the other two are Prolin colors; and uh, f**k Prolin).
With Prolin--Dome's "blended" colors--you only get 1/4 of the hair for
the price. So instead of the 4 oz., or whatever, that you'd get with
the regular monofiber, you end up getting 1 oz. of Prolin--a pretty
ridiculous markup just for blending a few colors, if you ask me.
Unfortunately, it's not all that clear on the website that you get so
little with the Prolin, so it's easy to get burned, but if you did an
entire head of Prolin, it'd cost you about as much as human hair.
