For balayaged hair that’s suffering from the telltale signs of an extended root area or a severe demarcation, here’s a foolproof way to bring back the color to your client’s hair.
FORMULAS:
Highlight Formula
• Multi-Techniques 8 Bonder Inside
• 30-Volume Majicrème Developer
Lowlight Formula
• DIA Richesse 7.32
• 9-Volume DIActivateur Developer
Timing
• 1-2 hours depending on depth of work required and length
STEP-BY-STEP:
1. Divide the head from front to back
2. Clip away the crown in a triangular subsection
3. Depending on hair density use 1-2 inch wide diagonal back subsections working from the nape towards the crown.
4. Apply Multi Techniques 8 Bonder Inside in double and triple point application painting the surface of zones 1 and 2. Keeping firm tension, apply the lowlight DIA Richesse shade in the space between the two points, before continuing to fully saturate zone 3 with lightener.
5. Surface paint lowlights on zones 1 and 2 between balayage pieces to break up any lines of demarcation.
6. Between subsections, paint the lowlight formula in zones 1 and 2 in fine woven veils.
7. When applying the crown, move the hair around and let the natural growth patterns dictate sectioning.
8. Divide the front using the natural part as a guide.
9. Use 1 inch horizontal subsections painting single points at the hairline and multi-points toward the interior. Continuing to blend any lines of demarcation by filling in lowlights where they are needed
10. Apply treatment of Powermix Color
