Blue Watercolor Melt

Before

Start by applying Formula A from the midlengths to ends, leaving out 1 inch of natural hair at the root.

Then, apply Formula B to the root area. Process for 50 minutes, or until you’ve achieved the desired result and rinse.

Apply Wella Professionals Wellaplex N°2 at the shampoo bowl. Process for 10 minutes, then rinse. Shampoo and condition with Wella FUSION Intense Repair Shampoo and Wella BLONDOR Seal & Care Conditioner. Then, blow-dry.

Create seven sections by taking irregular, weaved partings throughout the hair at a diagonal.

Release the first diagonal-nape section. Apply Formula C to the roots—this will be the shadow root throughout—and at the mids, leaving a few inches to color melt between sections. In between the root shadow and mids, melt Formula D and Formula E. Alternate blending with a brush and fingers for a watercolor effect, then repeat on the ends.

Take a panel in between each color melt, and apply Formula C from roots to ends. This will help mute the intensity of the melt, plus it will create rich dimension. Continue repeating this pattern until you’ve reached the crown.

Repeat on the other side, leaving the top section out.

Release the crown, and apply Formula C from roots to ends.

Process for 20 minutes, then rinse with water for long-lasting results. Apply Wella EIMI Thermal Image and blow-dry the hair.

Create a center part and divide the hair into two sections, twisting each section and securing into two topknots.

Then, release each bun to create lived-in, wavy texture.

Finish by pinching and pulling the hair until you’ve achieved your desired texture.
