Cloud Dancer Pro Tips from PRAVANA:

  1. Pre-lighten hair to a clean Level 10 (like the inside of a banana) with any of PRAVANA’s Pure Light lighteners
  2. Cleanse with the award-winning PRAVANA Perfect Blonde shampoo
  3. Towel dry and tone with Pearl to create the palest iridescent blonde, for a whiter result, add Violet
  4. Cleanse the hair once a week with PRAVANA Clear Cleanse to diminish minerals that can cause the hair to yellow or become brassy
  5. Utilize the Perfect Blonde regimen as the toner begins to fade, or to brighten natural white

hair (not color-treated)
