PRAVANA Launches Three New Jewel Tone Vivids
Pravana Launches Jewel Tones
At the beginning of this month PRAVANA introduced three new shades to its VIVIDS hair colour line. Inspired by nature’s brilliant gemstones, VIVIDS Jewels allows for the creation of bold, beautiful hues, including the trendy “oil slick” look.
The three new VIVIDS shades include Amethyst, Emerald and Blue Topaz. Colourists can replicate the brilliance of a gem by layering the three new colours or other VIVIDS shades, including Black or Clear additives, for a nearly infinite colour palette. Create a soft Violet Opal by combining Clear with four parts Amethyst to one part Emerald, or a bright Blue Zircon with two parts Emerald and one part Blue Topaz.
VIVIDS Jewels are now available at SalonCentric and State and RDA Pro Mart. The VIVIDS introductory offer includes the three new shades plus VIVIDS Clear and Black additives, a swatch ring and how-to’s for this year’s trendsetting VIVIDS techniques.

Instagram hair artists are already having fun with these new colours… #vividsjewels
Jordan Glindmyer (pinupjordan) tells her Instagram followers about her creation…
“Kylie Lesson (kylielesson) let me create a special gemstone inspired technique on her hair that I’m deeming the Pravana Prism Placement, inspired by the facets of a jewel! I placed a large diamond section on the top of her head and did a shadow root technique, then I foiled the entire underneath in alternating colors to replicate the multidimensional sides of the gem! Do you loooove these shades? I used all three of the new Pravana Vivid Jewel tones, Blue Topaz, Amethyst, Emerald, as well as playing with the black additive to smoke out some of the colors! The Teal is the Locked In line by Pravana, and I’ll definitely be using that a little more because I just love how bright it is, and it looks so cool diluted with clear! And just to really complete the look, I did this Diamond Updo and placed some jewels in it for added sparkle…aaaand also because I like go show off!”

How to get the look: Neons Pink “Interlacing Neons” tutorial

Tools:
Neon Pink and Neon Blue | Custom Mixed Neon Violet and Blue Violet (See Below) | Clips | Colour Brush | Sectioning Comb | Colour Protecting Shampoo and Conditioner
How to Custom Mix Neons:
To create the custom neon colours, see below:
Neon Violet: Use 3 oz of Neon Pink with 1/2 oz of Neon Blue.
Neon Blue Violet: Combine equal parts Neon Pink with Neon Blue.
Starting at the back, create a triangle section that begins at the middle of each ear and ends in an apex between the occiptal bone and crown of head. Clip aside.
Apply custom neon violet colour from roots to ends to the large triangle section.
From top of triangle, alternate slices of Neon Pink and custom neon violet, working in a pinwheel to the top of the head.
After reaching the top of the head, section a triangle from the recession of the forehead slightly past the apex and reaching toward, but not into the center of the forehead. Apply custom neon blue violet to this section from root to ends.
Process for 20 to 30 minutes at room temperature. Rinse with cool water, shampoo lightly with a colour protecting shampoo and rinse until the water runs clear. Follow with a colour protecting conditioner and colour-fade protectant. Style as desired.
