Can’t choose between purple or silver color for your client? We have the solution right here—use them together! Pravana has the perfect example of how you can mix these two popular hair color choices together for an overall glamorous look. What's unique about this particular look is Pravana uses a coloring technique without creative color; instead, they use a liquid demi and ChromaSilk. See for yourself!
Follow the how-to below using ChromaSilk and ColorLush formulas:
Color Formulas:
Root ChromaSilk Formula - Equal Parts ChromaSilk 4.20 Bright Beige Brown : 5.7 Light Violet Brown
ColorLush Silver Formula – 10g Silver Fox 9S + 10g Silver Lining 5S + 5g Clear + 5 Drops Blue Color Boost

Step 1: Section the hair into thirds. Apply Root ChromaSilk Formula to the regrowth.
Step 2A: From where your client parts their hair, leave two inches wide and two inches deep on either side of the part. This will not be colored, this will be toned later with the ColorLush Silver Formula.
Step 2B: Blend ColorLush Silver Formula in from root color through to the ends. Follow the entire perimeter of the head.
Step 3A & B: Part the hair into a triangular section, starting at the apex and ending at the bottom section. Sub-section the bottom half of your triangle and apply ColorLush Lavender Formula. Clip the top portion away.
Step 4A & B: Continue with ColorLush Lavender Formula on the next parting.
Step 5A & B: Moving to the back, apply ColorLush Silver Formula to the top section of your triangle.
Step 6: Apply ColorLush Lavender Formula to the rest of the hair on the apex.
Step 7: Process for 20 minutes. After rinsing, apply ColorLush Silver Formula as a toner to the front pieces that had been left out in the beginning. Rinse, shampoo with your choice of PRAVANA Sulfate-FREE and Condition
