That is NOT the answer I was looking for. Actually, it's not completely white, kind of really light toffee colored.

If it is kinda toffee color then you should be fine. If it is just white though then somethings wrong because isn't the stuff white before you put the coloring in it?

Why dont you try a piece underneath by your neck and see what happens. That way it will be hidden if it doesnt turn out right.
the color of the mixture is not what color it will be, the main question you should be asking is did i buy the right dye? what color is your hair now and what are you going for

It was light light light toffee. I was going for brunette. I just dumped the stuff down the sink cause when I set the spoon in the sink that I mixed it with, it appeared to start eating the porcelin away. I am not putting that in my hair.
off to get that 24 shampoo stuff.

Too late. It has been dumped.
The color can take a few minutes to develop and that's why you saw the "white" color. Did you get permanent or semi? Semi is much better for your hair.

Maybe that's where the purple came from!

It was permanent. And after I dumped it down the drain, there were some purple spots in the sink I had to scrub out. I think it would have been way too harsh for my hair, given it kind of eats porcelin.......

The color you saw, the light toffee is normal, as it oxidizes it turns pretty dark...now eating the porcelin isn't too comforting....

it shouldn't really damage your hair if you're going darker, its when you're lightening it that it does the real damage. and the color does turn darker the longer its in the bottle/bowl. most of the time the color that you see it turn is the base color, so for ex. if it turnes purple its because its a violet base. also it will stain if it stays on plastic/clothes etc. it wouldn't "eat" the porcelin but yes it could stain that also if let sit. next time just dump the color down the toilet 
if you ever have any questions pm me.

Darkening hair does its share of damage, it still usually consists of 20 peroxide, it still opens the hairs cuticle and then deposits color. Lightening does the same and then more if there is an addition of bleach.
