Help with dying hair purple?

I want my hair medium/dark brown with purple bits at the ends.

Did the brown and it turned out fine, then tried to put the purple bits in but it didn't work at all...turned out a dull bluey grey colour that you could hardly see.

Would it be best to go to a salon and get it done professionally? Do normal salons do colours such as purple?

Use bleach to get it blonde first. Purple will only show up on really light hair. You may need to bleach it a couple of times to get it light enough, especially if you already dyed the part you want to be purple brown. I suggest using a packet of Quick Blue and a bottle of developer. You can buy them at any beauty supply store and they cost a LOT less (under $10) than any salon would charge. Be sure to use a really good deep conditioner specially made for colored hair since bleach can be damaging.
