How Should You Mix High Lift Color?

We suggest mixing High Lift color with 30 Vol in order to get the best out of the product.

The mix ratio should be 1 part high lift color to 2 parts developer.

Stir with a whisk until you get a very smooth paste.

Then apply on the hair.

Apply your mix first to the root area where it is is darkest. Let it process for around 30-40 minutes.

Make a fresh mix, this time with 20 Vol developer.

Add to the root area and stretch to the ends.

Let it process for around 15 minutes or until you get a nice uniform consistent blonde color.

Then rinse with an acidic shampoo.
