I have VV hair from Elumen and tried to dye some of it back to black (regular color) but it didn't take over the Elumen. Should I try the Elumen NA2?

Your hair was probably bleached before applying the VV. You probably need a professional service, witch involves repigmentation and then applying the black color. Or applying straight black semipermanent color. Obviously your hair coloring history involved a lot of abuse, meaning a high degree of porosity. It is not the Elumen that doesn't allow your hair to take permanent black color, it is the condition of your hair.

If you are devoted to black, then yes because it's not going to go away any easier than the purple did. What I recommend is that you see a professional stylist when using this type of product. It is not for use at home

If your hair was lightened with bleach before the VV then you will need to use a filler like a demi or semi color and then you can put the NA@2 to cover and neutralize the VV tones.

When i bought this i used it to make ombre hair on dark brown hair and it worked but then i dyed my hair completely black and tried to use this once again on black hair and it didnt catch color like on brown hair . I did the strand test and after 2 hours it turned into a red color so u can try but red is yout best bet .. Only if u process it several times but thats most likely goinng to damage ur hair .. What i ended up doing was spending 150$ to get it lighten since black is not a color easy to get rid of and even getting my hair professional done it turned out to lighten only to a reddish brown color

Yes - unless you're trying to go blonde, or bright red. Being allergic to permanent hair colors, the cellophanes give me the opportunity to mask the incoming gray in my deep chestnut-colored hair. However, as I also mix the Deep Brunette Cellophane (which, like my own color is almost black) with some of the Gold Red for highlights. First time I did this, I was just happy having more shine and not seeing any gray in my roots. However, in brighter lights (like sunshine) it REALLY looks spectacular - even my hairdresser wanted to know what I'd discovered! Hope this helps you.

Buy Elumen NA@2. Apply on clean freshly washed hair. Apply with great care because it stains badly.

It goes from black to clear but it does also alter the color you have underneath if you choose. You would apply the color like a base coat, apply 2 coats of shade shifter and clear coat. This is very watery so apply very thinly and make sure you cure it before applying any additional coats. I used it on top of red and it turned the color into a magenta. I haven't tried it on any other colors because I dislike this product.

When I had it done my hair dresser it did not cover the grey at my roots so we covered it with black. The rest of my hair was covered with that Great color Violet, just love that color!

I used it on my vehicle's plastic trim, black and grey and the faded colours got back almost like new and this was from using the same cloth after doing the vehicle headlamps. It worked for me!!

I don't know if you read my previous review of this product, and I am shocked your hair turned green! I only wash my hair twice a week and I used this shampoo and conditioner each time. It did turn my platinum blonde hair a lighter violet color and my medium blonde color turned purple (the tint fades after using a different shampoo in a few washes). To be honest, I got a ton of compliments on my hair after using Pravan because the purple did look pretty cool, but I wasn't using the product to get purple hair! If your hair is completely platinum blonde I would consider a different brand unless you are looking for an overall violet tint. Hope this helps!

if you want a red color, i would NOT recommend it. I used it over non-bleached, dirty blonde hair, and it came out a faint orange. Manic Panic Vampire Red is a much better color if you want a nice red. Wildfire did not work for me and I tried it two times. I've been using Vampire Red for five years now and I love it.

I personally have tried to change *even ever so slightly* the color of my synthetic wigs, but have not found a fail-proof way of doing so. I tried the rubbing alcohol and shaprie trick, but that only lightly tinted the fibers of the lightest wig i had. This one I tried to make darker, no success. Though I should say I LOOOOOOOVE the deep wine color this piece has in person(: hope I helped

Yes. It works fine on my dyed-blonde fine hair if I use the "light" formula. Inexperienced sales people will say that the regular is the same but it is not according to the experts. In fact, the regular turned my hair darker with reddish highlights after several months. While it was a good color for fall my friends started telling me, unprompted, that they liked my old color better so I know it was not my imagination. If you have dark hair use the regular. Hope you try it and like it!

Unfortunately, it does not show as a color on black hair, but if you have highlights, it will. It does, however give ALL hair color a lustrous sheen, including black hair. There used to be a 'clear' version, suitable for dark hair, not sure if it still available. The colored ones, especially the red tends to come off on your clothes, so be careful, and do not wear white after applying, maybe after the first washing it will stop coming off, and will run in a pool too, before the first washing.

I wouldn't buy this brand. I'd go indago (I believe that's the right name) which is black. But its a two step prosses. This one just didn't do what it was supposed to do. But Hannah is for all hair types.

I only use other brands of color with this. The color that comes with this kit didnt work for me. I tryed a few times but that could just be me. I really like the kit. I just purchased polish elsewhere.

I did not have any luck at all working on any hair color. I found it just shreds your hair when you try to apply it. I tried both wet and dry.
