Do not apply the lowlight formula to natural regrowth. Tip: The previous color technique will determine the color placement for the lowlights. Stitch out and apply 8NtL to previously lowlighted pieces.  Stitch out and apply 8GL + 6GL mixture to previously highlighted pieces with a greater amount of regrowth. It is important to visually check your placement of color in order to maintain a good balance of highlights and lowlights in the hair.
