Using Formula B, start in the nape and work toward the top in ½-inch diagonal sections. Finely weave the hair and place in foils. Continue in this manner until all sections of the head are completely foiled.

Pro Tip: Foiling first gives you a lighter blonde, which will add dimension later.

Using Formula C, balayage the hair between foils using a L’ANZA Balayage Board. Process at room temperature until highlights have reached a Level 9. Shampoo, condition and blow-dry.

Pro Tip: Start your balayage at the nape and work up so you can let it process without touching the balayaged hair as you work.
