BRICKLAY BALAYAGE STEP-BY-STEP
- Apply Balayage Pure Blonde Lightener in deep-V bricklay sections up back of the head. Do not apply lightener all the way up to the root. Leaving space between lightener and root will allow for soft, natural looking re-growth.
- Balayage side sections over directing away from the face and continuing up to the part line. Repeat on each side of the head.
- Process until desired lift is achieved and then shampoo thoroughly with nourishing Surface Curls Shampoo.
