FORMULA STEPS
1. Working in finely-painted panels, apply Formula A and insulate the hair with foils. For balayage painting, Farhana recommends working with a light hand when blending and a heavy hand when building saturation for maximum lift. Process for 35 to 40 minutes, then rinse.
Pro Tip: After mixing lightening formulas, Farhana always adds Wella Professionals WellaPlex N°1 Bond Maker—the pH is the same as the lightener, so there’s no need to bump the developer or extend processing time. Plus, it allows the color to penetrate more easily!
2. Apply Wella Professionals Service Post Color Treatment to protect strands and enhance the color results, process for 5 minutes and rinse.
3. Apply Formula B to the base and process for 20 minutes. Then, apply Formula C globally and process for 10 minutes.
4. Rinse and apply WellaPlex N°2 Bond Stabilizer. Process for 10 minutes, then condition and rinse. Farhana recommends this treatment to all of her blondes because it balances pH levels, seals the cuticle and enhances brightness.
5. Blow-dry and style as desired.
