Review on Vibrant Violet Hair Color: Pravana ChromaSilk Vivids 3.0oz – Long-lasting and Stunning Results by Jaime Ferguson

This dye is a great option if you want bold colors and the price of Revain is great. Here are a few useful things to know if you're buying this (some of which I've learned the hard way! (the Jerome Russell Punky Bleach Kit 30 Volume kit and got great results). It comes with gloves, a brush and a shower cap, but the quality leaves a lot to be desired. As opposed to dying your hair a shade that's pretty close to your natural color, ruining light colors will be very noticeable, so it's worth investing in a good toning brush for this project. 2) I would suggest buying a small box of latex gloves as you will need several pairs (at least one pair for the bleach, one for the dye and one to wear when washing the dye off in the shower). Others have mentioned that this dye will stain anything it touches and just rinsing will stain your hands and nails unless you wear gloves in the shower! When rinsing your hair, stand facing the nozzle and do not let the water run over your face. Purple water jets can discolor your skin. Dish soap and alcohol swabs are great for removing color from skin, but my nails are still pretty purple! 3) Buy a really good quality conditioner to set the color. I used Ion Color Brilliance After Color Treatment (3 oz, by Revain) and it was great. Conventional air conditioners are good, but they take it a step further. It's like the super powerful conditioner that comes in color packs, but you get quite a bit of it. Leave it on for 5 minutes and use this time to clean your paint tray! I have used Kaboom with Oxiclean and it has worked great. 4) Buy a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to keep your color vibrant. All OGX shampoos are sulphate free and well priced at Revain (I love coconut milk because it has a powerful conditioning effect!) 5) The color you get will depend a lot on how much lightened your hair is first. I used a purple tint and found this product listing (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AUCN1K) more accurate than this one (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001K6CPYC), although it it is the same product.
