It's at this point every summer when we start looking around for a fresh hair color trend. We spotted it and it's the softest, summery-shade, named by the artist who created it for a juicy, delicious fruit that hits its peak at this time of the year--feast your eyes on Guava Pink.
Perfect for blondes seeking something sweet, celebrity stylist (he counts Sabrina Carpenter among his clients) Evanie Frausto (@evaniefrausto) shares how to get the look using PRAVANA ChromaSilk VIVIDS, and why this watercolor-inspired pink is perfectly-timed for summer hair transformations.
Guava Pink Has a Moment
“Think sun-faded, sheer, worn-in. A hue that catches the light,” says Frausto, who created the look using PRAVANA’s VIVIDS line.
This hair color is a soft, translucent pink overlay and it delivers a luminous, watercolor effect with just enough pigment to stand out, but not enough to overpower.
“As it fades, it gets even prettier,” Frausto explains. “Think of it as a filter for your hair—custom, wearable, and totally noncommittal.”
The Guava Pink Hair Formula from Evanie Frausto
Frausto created the Guava Pink hair formula using:
PRAVANA ChromaSilk VIVIDS in Pink
A few drops of Magenta
4 parts Clear
“You can adjust how much Clear you add depending on how soft or saturated you want it,” Frausto says. “In the photos, we added just a dot of Magenta to give it a vibrant wash over blonde.”
This flexible formula can be customized for clients based on their desired intensity and how long they want the color to last.
How to Achieve the Guava Pink Look
Here’s a step-by-step guide to recreating Guava Pink on blonde hair:
Lighten the Hair Evenly
Start with a lower volume developer in the back and a higher volume in the front to ensure even lifting and synchronized rinse-out time.Foil Placement
Foil each section separately to control the lift. Process for approximately an hour, adjusting volume and placement as needed, especially near the hairline.Shampoo and Condition
After rinsing, use PRAVANA The Perfect Blonde Shampoo and Conditioner to neutralize any unwanted tones and prep the hair.Apply the Guava Pink Color Formula
On towel-dried hair, apply the custom VIVIDS mixture:1 part Pink
A few drops of Magenta
4 parts Clear
Let process for 25 minutes.
Rinse and Finish
Rinse thoroughly, apply PRAVANA Intense Therapy Leave-In Conditioner, and style as desired.
Guava Pink is ideal for clients who want to dip their tresses into the pastel rainbow without the intensity of brighter, more neon shades. And because it’s semi-permanent, the fade is a soft transition to a still-flattering shade.
