FORMULA STEPS

1. Start by balayaging with Formula A.

 

2. Then, apply Formula B to the base. “I used my signature halo placement by painting in ribbons, using light and dark for contrast and dimension,” shares Tabetha.

 

3. Let everything process, then rinse and tone with Formula C.

 

4. Rinse again, then blow-dry and style as desired.
