Dimensional Foiling: Step By Step

Dimensional foiling step 1

  

Prepare your colour palette and divide the hair into sections in preparation for applying the foils.

Take horizontal slices from the nape up to the parting and gently backcomb for a diffused highlight and apply your lightening formula.

Dimensional Foiling - applying root melt formula

  

Apply the root melt formula and comb through with a wide tooth comb to create a smooth transition. Apply your lengths and ends formula, smoothly blending into the root formula to ensure a seamless blend.

If the hair is lighter and you want to break up more of the blonde add some panels or thick weaves in-between your backcombed slices with your root formula, for a more lowlighted effect.
