“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.

It is one of our core values at Be Salon to always keep ourselves updated with the latest colour trends, not only within hairdressing, but in general design as well. As Pantone Colour Institute is well-known in forecasting global colour trends which inspires the fashion scene, we believe it is necessary to design hair colours to complement fashion.

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!

Not satisfied with your previous haircut? But how should you look for a new hairdresser? If you don't usually hear any recommendations from your family and friends, it is always wise to do some online research on your own. Read reviews not just about the salon, but also about the hairdressers and technicians in the salon. This will help you be more well-prepared for what to expect at the salon as well.

We understand the feeling of nervousness and uncertainties about meeting a new hairdresser for the first time. How can you trust your new hairdresser with your hair? How do you know if they are concern about improving your hair or just trying to sell you products and packages that you absolutely don't need? We hear your worries and this is why Be Salon only recruits hairstylists who genuinely cares for the well-being of our customers.
