For lighter hair color: If desired hair color is lighter than the natural or previous color, apply mixture one-half (½) inch away from the scalp. Allow color to develop for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, spray with a little water to emulsify the color mixture on the roots. Process for another 30 minutes. For darker hair color: If desired hair color is darker than the natural or previous color, evenly apply color mixture from roots to tips. Leave on for 30 minutes.

Moisten ends of the tinting brush with water and comb through the whole length of hair to ensure an even color. Leave on for 10 more minutes. Rinse hair thoroughly until no more traces of the color can be seen on the water. Use shampoo and conditioner to restore pH balance. Blow dry hair and style as desired.
