Sectioning

Separate the hair into quadrants.

Application

  1. Start in the back right quadrant at the bottom hairline. Take a 1/4" horizontal slice and take a regular weave. Place the hair on to a foil and apply Lowlight Formula 2 from scalp to ends. Seal the foil and take a slice directly on top without skipping any hair. Place the slice on to a foil and apply Highlight Formula 2 to Zone 1, the regrowth area, and Lowlight Formula 1 to Zones 2-3, the midshaft and ends. Place a foil on top to isolate. Take another 1/4" slice without skipping any hair and create a regular weave. Place on to a foil and apply Highlight Formula 1 to the regrowth only. Make sure not to overlap onto the previously colored hair. Seal the foil. Skip a 1/2" section and repeat the application.
  2. Continue to work horizontally up the quadrant in the same manner. Take 1/4" partings and alternate your foils in a back-to-back method. When complete, repeat in the other quadrants and complete the entire head.
  3. Allow to process at room temperature for 30-45 minutes. Rinse, shampoo and condition with Color Extend.
