Pulp Riot Silversmith Semi-Permanent Hair Color — Icy Silver 4 oz, Conditioning Cream, True-Tone Fade

Pulp Riot Silversmith is an icy silver semi-permanent hair color in a 4 oz tube that creates soft amethyst-silver tones while conditioning hair and lasting up to 50 washes.

This semi-permanent shade blends cool silver with a whisper of amethyst for a modern metallic finish that’s easy to customize. The concentrated cream formula works without developer, applies smoothly to pre-lightened hair, and uses Anti-Overworking Technology to preserve hair integrity during processing. Silversmith is vegan and free from ammonia, PPD, parabens, MEA, and gluten, so you can achieve vivid color with less worry about harsh ingredients. True-tone fade means the color washes out evenly, maintaining an attractive gradient rather than uneven patches.

How does Silversmith perform on pre-lightened hair?

On lifted hair, Silversmith delivers its truest icy-amethyst silver payoff and full vibrancy. Because the formula is pigment-forward and conditioned, it provides intense shine and reduces breakage compared with non-conditioning treatments. For best results, start with a pale yellow or lighter base.

• Saturate clean, dry, pre-lightened hair for even coverage
• Process 25–40 minutes depending on intensity desired
• Rinse with cool water to lock tone and maximize shine
• Expect true-tone fade for even, predictable wash-out

Can I mix Silversmith with other colors or dilute it for pastels?

Yes — Silversmith is formulated to mix smoothly with other Pulp Riot shades or with clear to soften the hue. Diluting lets you control saturation, from bold silver to delicate pastel amethyst. It’s a versatile tool for custom color blends and creative techniques.

• Mix with Pulp Riot Clear for softer pastel results
• Blend with complementary shades to create bespoke metallics
• Use small test strands to preview combined outcomes
• Create balayage, ombré, or all-over silver looks with ease

What does Anti-Overworking Technology and conditioning mean for my hair?

Anti-Overworking Technology helps maintain hair strength and shine during coloring, reducing mechanical stress from processing. The formula conditions as it deposits pigment, delivering noticeably more gloss and hydration compared to unwashed hair and non-conditioning cleansers. This means color that’s vivid yet leaves hair feeling soft rather than stripped.

• Up to 86% more shine versus unwashed hair*
• 2x the hydration compared to unwashed hair after application
• 12x conditioning after bleaching, with reduced breakage risks**
• No harsh amonia, PPD, parabens, MEA, or gluten in the ingredient profile

How easy is application for salon pros and at-home stylists?

Application is straightforward: no developer required, which simplifies mixing and reduces chemical steps. The cream consistency spreads evenly for precise placement and can be left on for 25 to 40 minutes depending on desired depth. Cool-water rinsing helps preserve tone and shine.

• Apply to clean, dry hair for best uptake
• Process 25–40 minutes, then rinse with cool water
• Available in a convenient 4 oz tube for sectioned work or full-head coverage
• Works well in professional color bars or at-home touch-ups with prior bleaching

Who is this for: Pulp Riot Silversmith suits stylists and color enthusiasts seeking a durable, conditioning icy-silver with soft amethyst undertones. It’s ideal for clients with pre-lightened bases who want a metallic finish, creatives mixing customized shades, or anyone looking for a vegan, low-harsh-ingredient option that maintains shine and even fading.

Note: Results depend on starting level and application technique. For optimal vibrancy, begin with a lifted base. *vs. Unwashed hair; **vs. Non-conditioning shampoo; ***no animal-derived ingredients or byproducts.
