WHAT HAPPENS IF I TAKE LONGER THAN 10 MINUTES TO APPLY?
For stylists who do slower applications we recommend the following four tips:
• Apply the color on hair with higher percentage of white hair first.
• If you take 10 minutes to apply, only process the color for 5 minutes after complete application.
• Apply color in quadrants. Begin at the nape and work from the back two quadrants to the front two quadrants. Once the back quadrants are complete, set your timer for 10 minutes and then continue with the application of the front two quadrants. The difference between the two quadrants will be 5 minutes but each half of the head will be processed for 10 minutes. This will ensure a more uniform end color result.
• Apply Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute with a bottle. Its liquid formula allows for express application.
OTHER TIPS FOR GETTING THE BEST POSSIBLE RESULTS WITH COLOR GELS LACQUERS 10 MINUTE:
• Use on clean, dry hair
• Use on hair that has less than 1 inch/up to 8 weeks of regrowth
• This product provides up to 1 level of lift.
• Color Gels Lacquers 10 uses the European Level system, which appears darker at level compared to the American Level System (used by Color Fusion). If you are a Color Fusion user, formulate one level above what you are used to. For instance, if you use a 5NN in Fusion, use a 6NN in Color Gels Lacquers 10 Minute for similar results.
