Application
Step 1: Section
Create a working guide by parting the hair from ear to ear and hairline to crown at the natural part for two sections in the front. The remaining hair in the back creates your third section.
Step 2: Pre-Lightening – Back
Start by taking two ½” diagonal sections at the nape creating a “V”. On each side of the “V”, microstitch the hair (- – – – -) and apply the Lightening Formula. Next, take a horizontal section above these two sections, microstitch the hair (- – – – -) and apply the Lightening Formula. Repeat this three-section pattern throughout the entire back section.
Pro Tip
Begin your lightener application at least ½” away from the top of the foil and feather towards the scalp to create a soft blend and avoid harsh lines.
Step 3: Pre-Lightening – Front Sections
Start by taking a ½” diagonal forward section on one side at the bottom, microstitch the hair (- – – – -) and apply the Lightening Formula. Next, take a ½” horizontal section, microstitch the hair (- – – – -) and apply the Lightening Formula. Repeat this alternating pattern to the part, then repeat on the other side.
Pro Tip
Fold your foils just once softly, a harsh crease in the foil can leave in a band in the lightened hair.
Process at room temperature checking every 5-10 minutes until you have reached a Level 10 Pale Yellow. Shampoo the hair with Intense Therapy Cleanse and towel-dry well.
Step 4: Color Application
Apply the Color Formula to the hair left out in between the foils from roots through the ends.
Pro Tip
Lightly mist Intense Therapy Leave-In Treatment to slightly dampen the hair before applying the color in between the foils for easier application.
Process 30 minutes at room temperature. Check the highlights every 5-10 minutes and rinse separately if they reach a Level 9 Light Yellow before the processing time is up. Cleanse only (no conditioner) with PRAVANA Intense Therapy Cleanse. Rinse and towel-dry well.
Step 5: Overlay Application
Apply the Overlay Formula from roots through the ends.
Pro Tip
Section the hair into the same three sections as in Step 1 for easier application.
Process 30 minutes at room temperature. Cleanse and condition with PRAVANA’s Intense Therapy regimen.
Step 6
Apply PRAVANA’s Polish and Reunite and a few drops of PRAVANA Hydra Pearl Oil to well towel-dried hair roots through the ends combing through for even distribution and blow dry. Apply a few light sprays of PRAVANA Hydra Pearl Mist before styling with a 1-1/2” curling iron. These three styling products provide thermal protection up to 450 degrees.
