“Ultra Violet suggests the mysteries of the cosmos, the intrigue of what lies ahead, and the discoveries beyond where we are now. Enigmatic purples have also long been symbolic of counterculture, unconventionality, and artistic brilliance. Nuanced and full of emotion, the depth of PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet symbolizes experimentation and non-conformity, spurring individuals to imagine their unique mark on the world, and push boundaries through creative outlets.

Here are some of the most popular hair colour ideas our hairstylists' have created through inspiration from the Pantone Colour of the Year 2018.

1. Ultra Violet Balayage

Add more dimensions to the hair using a mixture of analogous colours to create an effect of richness and vibrance.

2. Tri-tone Feminine Violet

While cool violet shade creates a sense of edginess and boldness, moving the spectrum towards magenta will give a more feminine feeling. Our amazing hairstylist has chosen three different shades of purple to create soft definitions in the hair.

3. Muted Ultra Violet

Be subtle. Tone down the vibrancy to give an impression of a more sophisticated character while keeping it creative. This hair colour is also more acceptable in the office. Create a lasting impression on your clients!

4. The Ultra Match

Take your ultra violet colour up a notch by adding another colour. Blue highlights on violet is a colour combination that never goes wrong. This duo simply shouts, "COOL AND FUN!"

5. Soft Violet

This ash violet tone feels perfect for a winter holiday season. It looks extra soft and dainty when you style it with some loose curls.

6. Ultra Violet Highlights on Ash Gray

A combination of colours which portrays deep sincerity and wisdom, this creative hair colour design is absolutely suitable for strong and capable women. Very empowering!
