The technique
- Hair is a natural base 7.
- Part hair in a classic sectioning pattern.
- Starting at the hairline, take a diagonal section and weave, then use the edge of the tint brush and paint L’Oreal Professionnel Blond Studio Purple Lightening Balm from root to tip. Use your hands to push it down the hair shaft.
- Join the hair let out from underneath and saturate to the ends, using your hands to push in the balm which will guarantee a nice, bright lift.
- Repeat this throughout the sides, weaving, painting and saturating the hair.
- Move diagonally off the parting, starting on the hairline to create a beautiful contour.
- Moving through the parting on a diagonal using the free weaving technique, which will give a graduated, yet full coverage effect.
- Repeat this technique throughout the back diamond section on a diagonal. Once you reach the desired lift, gloss over with a Milky Tea toner using L’Oreal Professionnel Dia Light for a beautiful, high shine blonde.
- To finish, apply L’Oreal Professionnel Pli to the hair and blow dry smooth and dress with a wide barrel tong for a soft wavy finish.
