HOW-TO STEPS

• 

  
  1

  To start, use hairtalk® Originals color 613 with 6/60A Colormelts.

• 

  
  2

  Begin the first row at the nape and apply two rows of 613 with 6/60A on top (moving up the head).

• 

  
  3

  Continue working up the head, being sure to use clean sections so that there are no baby hairs in the way.

• 
• 

  
  4

  For the third and fourth row, combine color 613 with color 8. Diffuse number 8 with texturizing shears—this makes the lowlight effect a little less bold.

• 

  
  5

  Step 4 continued. Do not cut the adhesive and diffuse through the end. 

• 

  
  6

  Continue moving up the head.

• 

  
  7

  After applying four rows, move to the side of the head. (The back should look like this.)

• 

  
  8

  For row five, begin on the sides of the head and apply two extensions above each ear using Petites Colormelts 6/60A with Rooted Petite Plus 613/6R. 

• 

  
  9

  Fill in the remainder of the row (in the back of the head) with Originals color 613 and 6/60A Colormelts on top.

• 

  
  10

  Complete the look by pairing the Mini 60A with the Mini Plus 25/4R toward the front of the head.

• 

  
  11

  Step 10 continued.

   

  Note: Using the Mini strands here will blend better with the shorter pieces by the face. Also, be sure to apply the extensions about two finger-spaces away from the face to keep extensions hidden.
