Smokey Veil by @CHRISTABEL_LEGRAND
"Pulp Riot completely changed the game for me. Its given me more confidence as a colourist because I know my colours wont bleed, I can create incredible custom tones, the fade is incredible and I know I can remove them 100% and return to a beautiful creamy blonde with Blank Canvas! Pulp has an amazing ethos and the products being vegan and not tested on animals is important to me."
HOW I CREATED IT
#1 I did a full head of baby lights: blonde AF + 20 vol processed for 45mins .
#2 Rinse, shampoo and rough dry
#3 Take a zig zag star section in equal parts on either side of the parting to create a veil to fall over everything. Mix 50g lilac, 20g mercury and 7g smoke and apply
#4 Take the first 2 sections at the front of the hairline on a diagonal back and paint using 40g noir
#5 Alternate applications of colour across the rest of the sections using 3 different colours until you run out of sections. These are the colours I mixed:
1st colour: 40g Seaglass, 10g smoke & 10g Mercury
2nd colour: 40g Powder, 10g smoke
3rd colour: 30g blush, 5g smoke, 15g cleopatra
Moonshine Melt by @Hellsbellshair
"I'm absolutely obsessed with Pulpriot. The fact they're 100% Vegan & Cruelty Free with fabulous results is just a dream come true for me! Even when working with the acidic (semis) and alkaline (toners / Faction8) products together the blend is still AMAZING with incredible results. This product has changed my way of transforming clients hair and it can only get better!"
HOW I CREATED IT
#1 With this grey to yellow combination I went in with lightening her 6 week regrowth with Blonde AF.
#2 Once lightened to my desired lift, I then went in on damp hair with Faction8 12.11 & High Speed Toner in Icy ( 1:3 ) then 1-1 ratio 10vol.
#3 Once all the roots were covered I then melted the roots straight into Firefly & Clear in the Semi Permanent range.
Chameleon Bangs by @LauraMayStevensHair
"I completely trust the products through and through! The colour results are incredible and long lasting , the lift I can achieve is insane and the conditioning properties of the products are out of this world, which is super important during all hair transformations but especially with colour corrections!“
HOW I CREATED IT
#1 I pre-lightened the roots with BlondeAF & 15 vol (10 vol & 20 vol together )
#2 I cleansed the ends with Blank canvas, which is our safe colour remover: mixed this with our 6 vol. I did this to create a nice even canvas for the new colour.
#3 Once all rinsed off I pre-toned the hair with our Icy & Silver high speed toners. I mixed 10g Icy and 5g Silver at a ratio of 1:4 with our 6 vol and left this for 10 mins.
#4 I shampooed out and dried to 100 % dry ready for semi permanent application.
#5 For the purple I mixed 150g Nevermore, 100g Lilac, 50g Velvet & 20g Nemesis. For the yellow I mixed 30g Firefly and 30g Lemon, 10g Clear
#6 I left this for 40 mins and rinsed with cold water and a high pressure, no shampoo and finished with conditioner

Is K18 a Protein?
K18 is built differently...
As hair stylists, we all know about protein overload. That dreaded dry, brittle feeling in the hair is not only an undesirable result, but any treatments you apply won't be able to penetrate deep into the hair fibre and work their magic. But don’t worry! K18 has got your back.

Sophie gained a wealth of experience working in the industry from her background working in prestigious 5 hotel & spa and salon settings which lead her up to starting a business of her own. We talk about all things beauty and the curved tweezers that she can’t live without!
Hi Sophie, tell us a little bit about your journey and how you go into the industry and what lead up to starting out on your own?
I gained a lot of knowledge from working in different settings from working with a big teams in a 5 star hotels and spas to smaller beauty salon environments. I gained so much knowledge from working in both settings and although it was hard work and long hours.
I started out by working in a few different 5 star hotels with spas and a salons where I gained all my knowledges and experiences from each one to put together for my own business! It was hard work and long hours all the practice paid off. It was actually one of my clients I saw regularly in the salon I worked at that said I should set up on my own and gave me the confidence to go self-employed and I’ve not looked back since!
K18 Biomimetic Hair Science vs. Bond Builders
As professionals in the hairdressing industry, we're well aware of the constant innovation occurring in our field. Our clients love to dramatically alter their look with the ever-changing trends and we do everything we can to prioritise the health of their hair. Bond-building treatments have long been a staple in salons to address this need. However, allow us to present the latest advancement: biomimetic hair science and K18!
Understanding the Future of Haircare: From Bond Builders to Biomimetic Hair Science
For centuries, the haircare industry relied on cosmetic chemistry to conceal damage. Historical solutions like oils and conditioners were designed to sit on the surface of the hair, providing a temporary fix by improving its appearance and manageability. However, these solutions fell short of addressing hair's health at its core.
