  Create a diagonal back subsection along the parietal ridge from the fringe to the nape. Separate just behind the ear to isolate the front.

  Starting in the back, sweep L’Oréal Professionnel Infinie Platine along a large, one-point highlight from the midlengths through to the ends.

  5

  Create a large, two-point “V” highlight in the front of the ear. Apply Infinie Platine closer to the regrowth area at the front of the “V.”

  Tip: Make sure the hair is saturated on both sides, midlengths to ends.

  Take a second diagonal back subsection from the fringe to the crown. Create one large, 3-point “W” highlight in the front, from the fringe to just behind the ear.  Create one large 2 point  “V” highlight in the back, from behind the ear to the crown. Apply Infinie Platine closer to the regrowth area at the front of the “V.” Place cotton under the highlighted piece, and perforated plastic over the highlighted piece.

  Repeat steps 1 through 4 on the opposite side.
   
  Tip: Apply Infinie Platine at the middle of the chosen section, sweeping the lightener up to the regrowth area, and down to the ends.

  Leave out the crown to achieve a natural, lightened-by-the-sun result. Place perforated plastic over the final highlighted section. Tone with DiaLight 9.03 + 6-volume Diactivateur and process for 10 minutes.
