Help with Fairy Wrasse ID

[Mambofish]

Looking for opinions. I bought a fish that I was told was a c. rubripinnis (Red Fin Fairy) a month ago at my LFS. What is throwing me off is blueish purple on it's head and also down the back. Also, there are no horizontal lines on the head like I see when I do internet searches. I realize it's still a juvenile, however, I would like to know what I have.

didnt you already post this same question? i believe its a c. adornus female but many female fairys LOOK EXACTLY LIKE THAT so the only real hope of knowing is when she changes to a he. Also the origin of collection would help. -RJ42

Yes I did, but the thread disappeared along with the opinions. Should've copied the responses down. LFS says unknown origin. C. adornatus is pretty nice looking. How long on average does it take for most species of fairy wrasses to mature? Also, if it is the only wrasse in the tank, will it change from female?

it should change adornus is mostly white with bright red blotches on the head region. Nice fish. I also have a female and she gets excited her front region of her dorsal fin gets white.
