Pravana
Pravana ChromaSilk ColorLush is a full-range of demi-permanent colors. Ammonia and MEA-free, these colors deposit rich color with shine, blend grey and also serve as a color refresher or glaze, color back or tint back.
Artist Presley Poe (@presleypoe), the lead colorist for Pravana’s Color Collective, their elite squad of artists, demonstrates how she loves using ColorLush for its ease of use and its radiant results. "These colors have an extreme metallic finish and a beautiful fade," Poe says.
Presley pre-toned and then used two colors to melt for, ultimately, three tones.
Foundation Color:
Foundation is 5v / 3v and two grams of 5r and Clear
“I’m doing a soft red violet that has been toned down in addition to the soft pink violet already in her hair.”
Toning:
“I got lucky and found a unicorn because she came in with blonde, white hair. I really wanted her to have a foundation that her color can fade into with three different tones before it goes back to blonde.I am putting the colors on in the way that I want them to come out.”
