How to Apply Hair Colour

Pre Colour: Prep your Hair

Wash your Hair 24-48 hours before Colouring to allow your Hairs Natural oils to help bind your Colour and protect your scalp.

Tip: Straighten frizzy or curly Hair for easier sectioning and Colour application.

Before Colouring, brush or comb your dry and Product free Hair until it is tangle free.
Then divide your Hair into 4 Sections.

Choose your application tool:

Step 1: Create a Row

Beginning in either Top Section, guide the pointy end of your Tint Brush through the entire width of the Hair Section to create a row that is around 1-1.5cm thick, leaving the rest of your Hair section behind. Pull the Hair tight to define your working area.

Tip: Create vertical rows in the Top Sections and horizontal rows in the Bottom Sections of your Hair.

Step 2: Apply your Colour

Holding your newly created row, start applying your Colour as closely to the scalp (without Colouring it) as possible. Continue to paint your Colour down 2-3cms from your scalp line, covering the entire width of your row.

Finish applying Colour to the lengths of your Hair.

Tip: Make sure your Hair is covered with enough Product.

Step 3: Repeat

Lift your row up and repeat Step 2 creating a new row to cover with Product.
Continue until you have Coloured your entire Section of Hair. Proceed onto your next Section of Hair, until all Sections and Hair are covered.
