I reached out to Lunar Times and they sent me this message: Thank you for reaching out! Our Magic Salem dye is described as a black-based purple, designed to appear deeper in tone after initial application. You'll start to notice more of the purple undertones during the fading process! To speed up the fading process, use a clarifying shampoo + warm water! Hope this helps - have a nice day! Lunar Tides

thank you for sharing!

[@whitneymason406]

It's like a raven's feathers, so beautiful!

[@WoodshedTheory]

I know so amazing

[@y2flu]

This is my absolute favorite shade. Love it.

[@WoodshedTheory]

awesome!

[@criswebb7470]

This hair looks absolutely GORGEOUS!

[@WoodshedTheory]

That’s so kind thanks! I loved this one

[@mayaaaa100]

so happy to see a review of the magic line from lunar tides and wow its stunning!! i'll definitely be purchasing a few of these with your code

[@WoodshedTheory]

Thanks Maya for your support

[@michelelovesbooks]

I think it looks great, I love the purple undertone!

[@WoodshedTheory]

Thanks Michele I love it too

[@nunyerbizness9598]

Turned out well. I do like the purple showing through.

[@WoodshedTheory]

I liked it too! Should have had whiter hair or used a darker purple color in the front - oh well that’s why it’s called hair adventures lol

[@wendy8561]

Love love this color looks wonderful on you so now I can probably tone my brassy hair with the other one it might work thank you you are so very beautiful by the way 💜💜💜

[@WoodshedTheory]

Hi friend - thank you! I would def use a regular toner as this is very pastel if it’s too yellow it would turn the hair light brown instead of white. ❤️

[@vixxcelacea2778]

Wanted to see if the "magic" line actually seems all that different. I know I'm just one person, but I saw your message about playing the video the whole way through and while I want to see the results, helping smaller youtubers is definitely a good idea. So thanks for letting your viewers know but also leaving the timestamp for those who are just looking for the results. Edit: Seeing the results now. OMG it's so shiny and pretty! I absolutely didn't think the "magic" line would differ with the sparkles in the formula, but I think it actually does make a difference. On my screen, that looks like a gorgeous raven black with blue (my screen's color might be a bit off.)

[@WoodshedTheory]

Thanks for supporting my video! I really appreciate it. The results where awesome!

[@DarronBirgenheier]

That irididescent purple sheen reminds me of the way a Grackle looks in the sunlight. Very cool!

[@WoodshedTheory]

Neat!

[@moneycreatestaste]

wow I love how glossy it left your hair and the way it looks almost like purple iridescence in the light! I want to go black too but I'm afraid I'll stain everything, I've never forgotten when my hair stained my best friend's white sofa! You could have left the front yellow to go full Yugioh haha

[@WoodshedTheory]

I totally understand what you mean - you need to be ready with the old towels and the bleach with black dye. I don’t know if I’m ready to go full yugioh! 😅

[@kristinriberdy277]

That color is soo beutiful....definitely going to go for it with the magic salem

[@WoodshedTheory]

It’s nice

[@CathyThwing]

It's gorgeous! I bet it will fade beautifully, too!

[@WoodshedTheory]

Thanks Cathy hope you are well

[@Schnort]

I've been thinking about split dying my hair half juniper green and half magic salem, so this channel has been so convenient for me, haha

[@WoodshedTheory]

I’m so glad!

[@rebzav4747]

Such a beautiful shade. My hair is currently a reddish pink and I want to go darker for the Fall. Might try Blue Velvet and Magic Shadow mixed together.

[@WoodshedTheory]

Either would be beautiful!

[@danielaguizar]

it’s beautiful 🤩

[@WoodshedTheory]

thanks I loved this one

[@claraperezperez5997]

Looks beautiful

[@WoodshedTheory]

Thanks Clara ❤️

[@jakemichael8586]

love the surf rock sound track on this! am big in to surf rock,Psychedelic rock,garage rock,occult rock!

[@WoodshedTheory]

That’s awesome!

[@KeltaHeroe]

I usually bled my colours with a thicker moisturier before applying so it dilutes the colour (I don’t like the neon vibes on myself) and Magic Salem is perfect when diluted. A sorr of grayish dull (in the best possible ways) purple, something I wanted smoky lilac to be, but alas, I found my colour for the forseeable future, now. I’m curious about how it will fade 😊

[@passaggioalivello]

I like the purple undertone.

[@WoodshedTheory]

Thanks Pass!

[@FirstmaninRome]

black is beatiful, we love your dark heart claire, we need to bring it on out, I think it looks good, you can pull of lot

[@WoodshedTheory]

Dark hearts for life

[@BarbaraHicks]

Gorgeous color. I loved the Magic Charm but this may be even prettier on you.

[@WoodshedTheory]

Thank you!

[@madberry]

My wife has had black with a purple tinge a couple of times I've always loved this on a woman.

[@WoodshedTheory]

it was a pretty cool look

[@rachelt5653]

Next time maybe try adding some to conditioner to make it a bit lighter shade in front? Love your videos

[@WoodshedTheory]

Oh that is a good idea! I think by that time I was feeling confused and overwhelmed cause I knew I had tried to do something that wasn't gonna work.

[@mo-ii6fo]

thank u for the code! next time i purchase from them ill use it. ive used this dye before it was so dark and it faded cool my hair was different pinks and purples LOL

[@mo-ii6fo]

omg i love the black hair on u

[@WoodshedTheory]

thanks I like the dark hair too

[@DJKuroh]

Found this video while looking use this shade in the future. I love it. Reminds me of a raven's feather which is exactly what I wanted. So many reviews were like "way darker than I wanted 🙁". Like duh, they're BLACK based shades lol

[@WoodshedTheory]

yes it is VERY dark

[@ispydaisy5884]

With your length of hair did you only have to use one 4oz bottle of magic Salem or did you have to have 2. My hair is about the same length and I'm thinking of dying it but don't know how much I need

[@WoodshedTheory]

I would go with two

[@TheMythicRealm]

Do you need to bleach hair beforehand? I tried using this on my natural brunette hair and it didnt take :( it just looked like a washed out greyish brown. Idk what I did wrong.

[@WoodshedTheory]

interesting - this was a while ago but i did have previously bleached hair underneath this

[@lalaith4375]

Wow, this color is really nice

[@WoodshedTheory]

Faded pretty well actually

[@PocketSnax]

I hate to ask but i couldnt use sound (my mans asleep) did you mix both colors up before applying or which color did you use for each section?

[@PocketSnax]

Also! Use nail polish remover to clean stains, not bleach ❤

[@WoodshedTheory]

Thanks for the tip! Umm I can’t remember what I did for this - I think it was each color on its own

[@sailormoon9480]

I love this color how was the fading process

[@WoodshedTheory]

It faded nicely.

[@robynszeliga6113]

Could you tell me/give an opinion of how this faded out??? I won't be lifting my hair. I have a dirty multi-tone blonde. Always wanted that deep eggplant purple.....what was the base? Did it go pink? Thank you for your video :)

[@WoodshedTheory]

The base is way more black than purple, it is more purple in the light shift

[@robynszeliga6113]

@@WoodshedTheory thank you! I messaged the company about the base and fade out. I posted their reply and will here: Thank you for reaching out!

[@Schnort]

Does the purple fade away? I love the color but I don't want it to fade to black.

[@WoodshedTheory]

When the dye fades it doesn’t fade to black in my experience

[@libbyacar7609]

I really Wana try lunar Tides green color.

[@WoodshedTheory]

I hope you love it

[@maska6305]

Can you tell me which one is washed off? Can it be removed from hair?

[@WoodshedTheory]

Hi It does wash out eventually but probably to a lighter grey color it will still somewhat stick to your hair

[@maska6305]

@@WoodshedTheory How long did it take to wash out of your hair or did you remove it with a hair wash?

[@WoodshedTheory]

@@maska6305 I think I ended up doing a bleach wash to go back to green. I had it this color for three or four weeks before changing it. It probably was more a mauve-grey color at the end.

[@maska6305]

It's clear. Thank you for sharing your experience and answering questions, you helped me a lot)
