Want to turn heads this Spring with the ultimate green hair? Whether you’re dreaming of forest green hair, neon green hair, or a bright emerald green hair look, the trick is all in the prep!
To get that pot of gold-worthy green, make sure your hair is pre-lightened to yellow. Why? Green hair color shades have varying ratios of blue and yellow pigment. If your hair is already lightened past yellow (into pale blonde or platinum territory), just add a bit of VIVIDS Yellow to your formula to avoid unexpected blue tones and keep your green hair looks vibrant and bright.
Now, for the fun part—application! Go for an all-over color if you want to make a bold statement, or try balayage for a more natural, grown-out effect. Feeling extra creative? A green ombré melting from deep forest green hair into neon green hair is sure to make leprechauns jealous.
For long-lasting, head-turning green hair, ChromaSilk VIVIDS semi-permanent direct dyes will keep your locks looking magical. So grab your brushes, mix up that perfect green hair color, and get ready to spring forward into a vibrant new look!
PRAVANA Global Artistic Mentor George Blanco‘s Pro Tips:
- The deeper the green, the more warmth should be left in the hair or added in.
- A drop of VIVIDS Red creates smoky greens and is great for those near-black greens.
