Adore Semi Permanent Hair Colour 186 Rich Eggplant is a deep, velvety purple that adds bold intensity.
This semi-permanent dye coats the hair shaft with rich, conditioning colour, leaving strands soft rather than dry. The creamy liquid formula glides through hair easily, spreading evenly from root to tip with minimal dripping.
As it processes, you’ll notice a light, pleasant scent rather than harsh chemical fumes. Once rinsed, hair feels smooth with a glossy, dark plum finish that catches the light beautifully.
Perfect for anyone wanting a striking purple tone without long-term commitment or ammonia. Use when you want to refresh faded colour, deepen dark hair, or add purple depth to pre-lightened strands.
Hair looks more vibrant, feels silky, and appears more dimensional in different lighting.

- Shampoo hair and towel dry until just damp

- Comb through to spread evenly from roots to ends
- Leave on for 15–30 minutes, checking colour depth
