Take a cat-eye section on the top of the head that extends from the front hairline to the back of the crown. The width is determined by the shape of the head and widens in the top middle of the head to just above parietal ridge.
Pro Tip: Use chopsticks for multiple purposes: it’s easier, allows for cleaner sectioning, holds hair without leaving creases and adds a little style to your work.

When you reach the mid back-point of the cat eye, right behind the ear, color melt Formula F into the midlengths and ends for more of the pearlescent lighting effect around the face.
Pro Tip: In these sections, apply Formula F (Silver Ice) FIRST to serve as a visual guide that will help you figure out how far up the parting the melting point should be. As you work forward, you should increase the amount of Silver Ice in your ombré.
