Pulp Riot artist and freelance colourist Harriet Stokes offers a simple guide to creating this stunning, multi-tonal look using just one tube of Pulp Riot Violet High Speed Toner.
TOP TIP
Always apply bleach to the roots in an upwards motion, never towards the scalp. This gives you much more control and lessens the chance of bleach contaminating the rest of the hair.
DID YOU KNOW
One tube of Pulp Riot Violet High Speed Toner should provide enough for nine applications when mixed at a ratio of 10g of colour with 40g of developer.
