Our Educator Mentor Tim “Bo” Mack is sharing the PRAVANA Love this St. Valentine’s Day with his Rich Ravishing Red Color Melt — and a bonus fun and easy styling technique for natural hair!

Lighting Formula

20g Pure Light Power Lightener + 60g 10 Volume Creme Developer

Shadow Root Formula

20g ChromaSilk Creme Color – Vibrant Reds 6.66 Dark Intense Red Blonde + 10g ChromaSilk VIVIDS Everlasting Scarlette Red + 45g 10 Volume Creme Developer

Color Formula

20g ChromaSilk VIVIDS Everlasting Scarlette Red + 30g 10 Volume Creme Developer

Prep the hair by spraying Purify & Revive PRIME Demineralizing Spray combing through to distribute evenly and allowing to sit for 3 minutes while you mix your lightener. This will diminish any minerals in the hair that can affect the color and condition of the hair during a lightening service. (No shampoo or rinsing required.)

Step 1: Pre-Lightening Retouch

Apply the Lightening Formula to the dark base only feathering lightly to blend into the previously-lightened ends without overlapping.

Step 2: Section

Section the hair into four quadrants to create a working guide.

Step 3: Shadow Root

Beginning in the back right quadrant, take ½” subsections and apply the Shadow Root Formula.

Step 4: Color

Starting with the same 4 quadrant sectioning and beginning in the back right quadrant, take ½” subsections and apply the Color Formula to the mid-lengths and ends.

Process 30 minutes at room temperature. Rinse with cool water, then Cleanse and Condition with PRAVANA’s TRUITY regimen.

Step 5: Style

Detangle the hair with PRAVANA’s Intense Therapy Leave-In Treatment, then cocktail TRUITY Blowdry Cream with a few drops of Hydra Pearl Oil and comb through for even distribution. Taking 1” sections from forehead to nape, create a 2-strand twist and place the client under a warm hooded dryer. Once dry, emulsify Hydra Pearl Mist in your palms and undo the twists and style with your fingertips.
