Pulp Riot is an amazing semi-permanent color that your Hair Cuttery stylist can create a unique look just for you. Fashion or Vivid hair colors are exciting and full of self-expression. Pulp Riot gradually fades through washes but doesn’t disappoint while it changes. The ease of this semi-permanent color allows the flexibility to try many colors without damaging your hair. If you only want a pop of vivid hair color, try some peek-a-boo highlights. These highlights are placed throughout the under portion of your hair and are noticeable when your hair moves in certain ways, is curled and sometimes when pulled up.

Hair Color Basics

Starting your career might limit you on wild, vibrant colors depending on your profession, but you can always make a change

within the realm of natural shades, even if they’re not naturally yours. Have you ever thought about going blonde? Now’s the time! What about transforming into a redhead? Give it a try! Always desired a dark, rich brown? Don’t wait any longer! Discuss with your Hair Cuttery stylist what shade and tones work best with your skin during your consultation. Need some color inspo? Check out the HC Lookbook and show your HC stylist a photo of the hair color you’d like to achieve. Just remember not to over-do these drastic changes because they can really take a toll on the integrity of your hair. It may be a process to get to the final results you want with healthy hair intact.
