I finally do. This seems to be one of the colors that are very hard to capture as they really are. Here's our first try.

Beautiful color indeed.

It's much darker than new sky blue. And more beautiful, if you asked me. It's actually quite close to electric blue what comes to lightness/darkness, but turns more towards petrol. Didn't really succeed with a comparison pic. :/ Maybe it should be called light prussian blue or something. :)

If that Afrocare mid-blue is how it looks like in the picture it must be quite beautiful. Reminds me of the deep sea. I might have to try it, too.

It's not a blend, is it? I see some turquoise hairs, but might be the lighting.

It's not a blend. This would be a great for blending petrols/turquoises.

Hello, can anyone tell me the chromatic difference between IKS "Electric Blue" and "Turquoise"? Any pictures or even just an explanation would be very much appreciated!

They're very, very similar. Turquoise is a little bit darker and more saturated than electric blue. Electric blue also looks lighter because it's much shinier.

I tried taking a picture but the lighting isn't that great, so it's kind of hard to see the difference. Electric blue is the top color and turquoise is the bottom one.

It's the same as baby blue/aqua, maybe they've changed names or something.

I took this picture from Dare2Wear's Gallery, I hope she doesn't mind...

Can anybody tell me what red this is? On my monitor, it looks like a watermelon-esq, but I can't really tell..

My wild guess would be Magenta (pink-red) from Afrocare.
