Starting back at the nape and working your way up the head, apply each triangle section one at a time. Apex the triangle and apply Formula A with light pressure.

Take the Scruples Balayage Board and place a Scruples Color Paper on top. Lay a section onto the board so it is flat. Continue to blend Formula A through the midshafts and ends. The balayage board allows you to apply pressure for heavier saturation of lightener while sliding the color paper with the hair and board down through the ends.
