Step 1
Start from the front hairline parting and take a 3 inch deep wave section all around the perimeter of the head. Leave a central veil section out, divide into two, and secure with section clips. Apply Colour A to the roots of the perimeter section stretching down about 1-2 inches.
Step 2
Start from one side, take diagonal wave sections (depth of each section can vary, work visually). Alternate the following colours on each section on to the mid-lengths and ends; Colour A, Colour B, Colour A, & Colour C. Continue this colour combination until both sides are complete.
Step 3
On the central veil section apply Colour A to all the roots. Working from the back up to the crown take horizontal wave sections and alternate Colour’s A and B on to the mid-lengths and ends.
Step 4
On the central veil section from the crown to the front, part the hair to the natural fall and apply Colour C to the mid-lengths and ends.
