Overview
Step-by-step guide...
Set-up & Prep
We recommend wearing a button-up shirt when colouring (makes everything a whole lot easier at the end).
Put on your gloves and cape, then starting with dry combed hair part it down the middle into two sections.
Mix your colour
Using your kitchen scales mix,
- 50g of colour
- 50g of developer
(This is the grey coverage mix that gives up to 90% grey coverage).
Apply to your roots
1. Scoop a small amount of colour onto your brush, paint the colour directly on to your part.
2. After that section is fully covered, take the next section by using the pointy end of your brush and thumb. Pinch the hair above the brush and lift.
3. Continue colouring your roots in small 2cm sections parallel to your part, work your way down one side of your head.
4. Paint in an upward motion around the ear to avoid getting colour on your skin.
5. Repeat on the other side of your head, doing the same parting and painting application.
6. Repeat the same action for the back and around the neck. Lift the sections up to the top of your head and paint in an upward motion to avoid colour on your skin.
Ends Application
This part of the application process is optional. If your colour has faded and you want to refresh it, follow the steps below. Otherwise, set your timer for
Roots only:
30 minutes
Roots and Ends:
25 minutes roots
5 minutes on ends
Apply colour to ends
1. After your timer for roots goes off, start with the same section and side of the head you did the roots, now take 4cm sections.
2. Place your hand under the section and paint onto your mid lengths and ends of the hair using your hand as a support ‘backing’ for the brush.
3. With both hands, milk the sections from where the lighter colour was painted on to ensure it spreads evenly. Once your hair is all painted, set a timer for 5 minutes.
Wash your colour out
Wash your hair by double shampooing your roots and conditioning from roots to ends.
