1. I used Flash Lift by Redken with 40 vol, because I needed to get 6-7 levels of lift.

2. I had her process for 17 minutes, then washed.

3. I did a root tap with 8N from shades EQ.

4. Next, I glazed the rest of her hair with half 8N and half 9N, 20 vol.

5. Last, I had her sit for 10 minutes and washed.
