Section the hair into quadrants. Working in 1/8-inch slices for control, apply Formula A to the new growth, leaving out 1/8 inch at the root. “If there is a lot of regrowth, hit the mids first, then go back to the root,” Ian says. “Otherwise, you’ll get a gold band.”

Show Steps
Take another slice right behind the first one. Repeat the same technique, using Formula E at the roots and ends and Formula F in the middle. After the first two foils, leave a ½-inch slice of hair out, then repeat the same technique. Each side of the head should have six foils and three slices without any color.
Ian's pro tip: He chose this color combination combination to avoid placing Formula C (Mauve) and Formula F (Yellow) together—if you know your color theory, you know that those two shades would cancel each other out, and the melt would be a brown shade.
