Pravana has chosen six of its top Chromasilk Vivids shades and is now offering them in extra-large tubes with three times the amount of color. Vivids XL shades include Wild Orchid, Silver, Blue, Violet, Red and Clear.
With Vivids XL tubes, stylists can complete an all-over color look, create custom shades with an infinite number of color options, give multiple clients stunning pops of color without having to restock tubes and more, plus stylists can easily store for re-use. Customize colors by using Vivids Clear to lighten or pastel any Vivids shade.
For Best Results:
For full color vibrancy and greater longevity, pre-lighten hair before applying. Be sure hair is freshly shampooed and completely dried prior to applying. As with the rest of the Vivids line, no developer is needed. Hair should process for 20 to 30 minutes at room temperature after application, followed by a light shampooing and conditioning using the Vivids Color Protect after care line.
