FORMULA STEPS
1. Starting in the back, divide the hair into five sections horizontally. Then, alternate subdividing each horizontal section into three to six triangles similar to a bricklay or zigzag pattern.
2. Alternate applying Formulas A and B on the triangle subsections. Paint Formula A on one triangle from the root to the midlengths to create a lowlight, then run a WetBrush® through it to brush the formula down. “This maintains depth through the midsection but allows the ends to stay lighter and pop,” shares Madison.
3. Then, on the next triangle subsection, balayage with Formula B using a 2-inch chip brush. “I painted Formula B in slant sections toward the round/sides of the back sections, leaving the middle area dropped lower so that overall it looked like one giant V between all the sections,” said Madison.
4. As you approach the area above the parietal, begin weaving through the center sections and continue applying Formula B to create a ribbon effect that will lay on top of the depth below. Repeat as you reach the face-frame.
Note: It’s the same horizontal sectioning in that area, painting slant backs and then weaving anything above the parietal for ribbons.
5. Let process, then rinse and tone with Formula C.
6. Rinse, then back at the chair, color melt with Formula D and process for 10 to 12 minutes.
7. Rinse again, then blow-dry and style as desired.
