• 

  

  

  • Natural Level:

    7, 9 (ends)

  • Formula A:

    Paul Mitchell Synchro Lift + 20-volume

  • Formula B:

    Paul Mitchell Lighten Up + 5-volume

  1

  Section the hair from recession to recession, creating a ‘cat eye’ on the top of the head.

• 2

  Split the back down the middle and then create a slight diagonal forward section above the ear.

• 3

  In the back and side sections, take diagonal back slices. TIP: Jen’s go-to technique for the ‘cat eye’ section is strong diagonal slices against the part. This leaves the hair so soft and blended—the eye can’t pinpoint where the color is coming from. 

• 4

  Apply Formula A at the regrowth; apply Formula B on the ends and process for about 20 minutes, or until pale yellow.

• 5

  Rinse, do NOT shampoo, and apply Formula C for about 15 minutes.

• 6

  Shampoo with Paul Mitchell Forever Blonde Shampoo and Conditioner.

• 7

  To prep for styling, use Paul Mitchell Forever Blonde Dramatic Repair, Awauphi Wild Ginger Treatment Oil and Awapuhi Wild Ginger Hydrocream Whip.

• 8
