Check out the color formulas and application steps below!
Total Time: 4 to 5 hours
Pricing: $300 to $450
Steps
- Apply Formula A to the roots and process until the hair lifts to a pale yellow, and rinse.
- At the bowl, apply Formula B as a soap cap and process for 5 minutes, then rinse.
- Then, apply Formula C to the roots and Formula D to the ends on damp hair. Process for 15 minutes to pre-tone the hair. Shampoo (but skip the conditioner), and blow-dry.
- Apply Formula E to the roots and Formula F through the ends, creating a seamless blend of the two colors. Process for 35 minutes at room temperature, then rinse with cold water. Skip shampoo, and condition with Schwarzkopf BLONDME® Keratin Restore Bonding Conditioner.
