  Resection the hair into quadrants. Create a ¼-inch to ½-inch horizontal slice at the nape, and apply Formula B two inches from the roots and over the previously-applied formula with a color brush. 

• 

  
  5 Apply Formula C through the prelightened ends.
• 

  
  6 With gloved hands, blend Formulas B and C at the midshaft. Avoid blending too far down the shaft in order to preserve the vibrancy of Formula C. Be sure to wipe off gloves between sections.
• 

  
  7 Continue working up the head in ¼-inch to ½-inch subsections, applying Formula B at the roots and Formula C through the ends, and blending through the midshafts.
• 

  
  8 Once the back section is complete, move to the section above the ear. Working in ¼-inch to ½-inch horizontal sections, apply Formula B two inches off of the roots, Formula C through the ends and blend at the midshaft.
• 

  
  9 Process 20 to 30 minutes at room temperature, rinse with cool water and shampoo, condition and set color with the VIVIDS Color Protect collection.
