Love it!
I love this color. I've been using it since a few months after it was released and I've been really happy with it. Consistency is awesome for melting and I love how shiny it leaves the hair. I've used so many different lines in my 18 years behind the chair, and this by far is my favorite.

I made the switch from Wella Koleston Perfect to Pulp Riot Faction 8 anout 3 weeks ago and have never looked back. Faction 8 is bomb! The colors are rich and beautiful. The coverage is outstanding! It is a match made in heaven! Thank you salon centric for carrying this amazing line! This is 8-4 and holites toned with rose

lackluster reds
I am finding that this color line seem to run about a shade lighter then other popular brands that alone was a little frustrating but I am extremely disappointed with the reds the 6RR comes out more like a 7 copper (very orange) and with little to no saturation, since you need to drop a level they need to have a few more choices in the 4 and darker levels.
But i must give a big thumbs up to their lightener better then Blondor

A couple years ago when I first started using it this line seemed great
But lately I’ve had some inconsistencies as well as soon trouble covering grays. I’ve tried a few different tricks with the same results. I’ve done hair for about 16 years now so I’m not new to this. Not sure what’s happening.

Used to be great
This used to be great and bam all of a sudden its dull, gold, or green. The swatches in the book do not even match the results.

Love the versatility!
The versatility of this product line is above and beyond its greatest strength. The fact that I can stock my cabinet with this line and handle all over colors, grey coverage, plus tone/melt my blondes with the same tubes is spectactular. The richness and depth is so true to tone, not too inky. My guests love it. A few things to be aware of:
- The actual colors are a shade lighter than what the swatch book would lead you to believe.
- For super resistant grey coverage, I always reach for a 00, go a shade darker, and up my developer to 25 vol. Then leave it on for 45-55 minutes. I don't need to do this for ALL my greys, but if you have trouble try that. I have a native american client with CRAZY resistant greys and with those techniques I can use this color on her, take a haircut during her processing time, and her color turns out beautiful and fully covered every time!
