I just bought pravana vivids silver and i want some tips before i used it.
So, i know, i diluted with conditioner! I have syoss conditioner repair, it's ok with that, lol?
Also, my hair should be wet or dry? I know, it's good to be damp.
Well, now i have a very light silver with some yellow parts and my hair length is at my shoulder, i want to accomplish a result like the picture, how much ml do u think i should use? Beacause i hear that this color may turn out purple or very dark grey :O and that isn't something i want! <3
Last, how much time i should leave it on my hair for this result?

I'm sorry I can't answer most of those questions but I can answer about wet vs dry!  I saw the Pravana rep on their Facebook page say that dry hair will get the best results with their vivids!  I hope that helps a little! πŸ™‚

You will need to use a stronger mix on the parts that are still yellow. To get a colour similar to that pic you will need a very light base. If your hair is still very yellow it may be too dark still for a light silver.
I have heard that the silver comes out dark for some people, but my tube only comes out a medium grey if used neat, and it only needs diluting by half to make a pastel shade.
Shampoo your hair, no conditioner and let it dry then apply your stronger mix. You can leave it on for as long as you want, more time will mean the dye lasts longer, so for a pale shade like silver i would leave it on for at least two hours.
Try on a strand test to get the dilution and timing perfect.

my pravana silver came out from the tube dark purple. if im not mistaken got info from other forum depend where u buy it. in US its dark and in Europe lighter colour. anyway i bought mine from ebay US.

my hair is level 10, mixed it 1:3 ( pravana:conditioner) and after blowdry and some wax it become purpleish + bluish silver tone

today i didnt put anything, didnt wash either it become the gun metal that i like πŸ˜€

i think to achieve the photo that u show u will need more lighter blonde hair and dilute the pravana silver with more conditioner than that i did

It comes out so dark! I used a full tube and conditioner and it was still mega dark. I'd try using a couple of table spoons and go from there, as you can always redye. Wicked pixies advice is spot on. Pravana lasts for ages, but prepare for people to say your hair is blue. Uneducated people πŸ˜‰
