New Update:

The red is god damned tenacious. My natural brown/black hair is NOW a cream/white/pale banana yellow. Essentially, as white as it's going to get before I've applied the Virgin Snow.

The red... well, I'm letting the remainder of my purple toner to turn it kinda "gray" I guess. After the Virgin Snow is applied in a couple of days, I suppose what I get is what I'll have to live with.

The red is the lightest of pink it's ridiculous.

But at least the majority of my hair is billy Idol blond. Wish me luck with the Virgin Snow. It's the only thing that's going to save the pale pink I think.

Good luck, hope you like the results. After you use the toner, definitely do a diluted rinse in white vinegar, the smell goes away after it dries and it really helps keep the color looking fresh much longer.

Funny how red fades lightning fast but that last little tint really loves to stick around

Yeah... Well luckily, that last bit of pink is starting to fade out, so the manic panic should do quite well I think.

This is what it looks like pre-virgin snow. I have yet to apply toner to it proper.

Looks good, the toner will whiten that up no problem. When you said you had leftover red tones, I was thinking I'd see some bozo orange.

What say you, G.net?
Honey, you gonna WRECK your hair with all that crap.

Grow it OUT first. THEN do the "virgin" hair like that. If you do that shit to already processed hair, it's gonna break off.

That, and what will your place of employment think? Are they friendly towards that kind of thing or not?

I'd LOVE to dye my own mousey brown/black/gray hair stop-light red. However, being advanced as I am in AGE.... I highly doubt that would be deemed appropriate by ANY place of employment or otherwise.

OK, I just viewed your pictures. I like the bleach/beach blonde.
