  To start, release a 1-inch section around the entire perimeter of the head forming a halo from the nape to the front hairline. This will be the base (or foundation) of the sectioning pattern. Continue releasing 1-inch sections from this halo until reaching the crown of the head.

  Starting at the front and working around the head, apply Formula A into Formula B into Formula C. Then leave out a stripe of blonde, and continue coloring in the same pattern—Formula A into Formula B into Formula C. Be mindful of the angle of your lines and the shape they will create in the finish. 

   

  Use a balayage board behind a meche strip to provide a stable surface to press the color into the hair and ensure saturation.

  Continue applying the color around the head, and remember that partings should be taken on a steep diagonal. Once the working section is colored, place it down on top of the previous-colored section to saturate the back.
