Steps
1. Foilayage, beginning in the back, with Formula A. As you work up to the side of the head, switch to Formula B.
2. At the hairline, create babylights with a slight tease using Formula C. Do five foils on each side and four foils for the money piece in the middle at her fringe.
3. Rinse and shampoo with KEVIN.MURPHY SMOOTH.AGAIN.WASH.
4. At this point, Jessica said the hair pulled very warm, so she toned with three different formulas:
- Use Formula D around the hairline to tone the babylights and money piece.
- Use Formula E at the roots down to the mids.
- Use Formula F from mids to ends.
5. Rinse with KEVIN.MURPHY.SMOOTH.AGAIN.RINSE.
6. To style, apply UNITE 7SECONDS Detangler and comb through, then apply a cocktail of KEVIN.MURPHY.SMOOTH.AGAIN and UNITE U Argan Oil.
7. Blow the hair smooth, then curl with a 1-inch BaByliss Pro curling iron.
