Will Raw Deep Purple Permanent Hair Dye work on Thick Dark Brown hair without Bleaching?
Dramatic colors like purple, pink, blue, green, etc do not come in permanent, it is not possible, the dye molecules of these dramatic colors will not go small enough to be permanent. They are semi permanent colors, which means they will fade out in around 4-8 wks. For the most dramatic look, it is recommended to bleach first. Since your hair is dark it may not show up at all, or it may just be subtle, if you don’t bleach first. The thing to remember with these color is they can fade to an ugly color, & sometimes they can stain the hair. If the color doesn’t fade all the way out the only way to get rid of it is to bleach it again (which may not always work), or to color your hair darker.
