HOW-TO STEPS

  • 1

    Start by applying Formula A to the regrowth area. Process for 45 minutes. 

  • 2

    Rinse, then blow-dry until the hair is 100 percent dry.

  • 3

    Apply Formula B to the roots and midlengths only. Then, apply Formula C to the ends and blend the color up into the midlengths. Process for 30 minutes. “I left out a horseshoe section in the nape and left that section silver,” says Kimberly.

  • 4

    Rinse with very cold water and condition only. Do not shampoo the hair.
