PRAVANA introduces three new VIVIDS inspired by nature’s brilliant gemstones. VIVIDS Jewels brings boldness and innovation to the VIVIDS Collection, offering rich color saturation and undertones that complement any skin tone. The three, all-new VIVIDS shades include: Amethyst, Emerald and Blue Topaz.

The new VIVIDS Jewels shades introduce even more possibilities for customization. Colorists can replicate the brilliance of a gem by layering the three new colors or other VIVIDS shades, including Black or Clear additives, for an infinite color 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.

To use, pre-lighten hair according the Lightening Guide before applying VIVIDS to show the colors’ full vibrancy and provide greater longevity. Hair must be freshly shampooed and completely dried prior to applying any VIVIDS shades. As with the other shades in the collection, no developer is needed and 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. 

Availability: Beginning May 2016, VIVIDS Jewels will be 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.
