Apply gray Quikkies.

For the third row, apply Quikkies Blue Marine, using three strips of Quikkies. Apply the Flast Violet Quikkies under the Blue. For the middle, use Quikkies Blue.
Using a razor, cut and blend the Quikkies into the outline of the shape of the client's current style. For this model, that meant blending to her asymmetrical style.
Make the end more blunt (solid) with a strong perimeter. Create an asymmetrical band shape.
To sections of color, use the edge of a razor to cut into and create spaces to expose colors for a multi-chromatic color effect.

After the hair is blow-dried, refine the cut and make the front a little shorter. Add custom color as the last row.
Section by section, blow-dry the hair with a round brush.

If she is looking to add subtle pops of color to a dark base, Hairdreams Quikkies have got you covered.

It’s the perfect way to temporarily color, or for shy clients to experiment with bright, bold hues.
