When we first heard from MODERN Instagram follower Virginia Finley (@thehairdoctor101) about her creative-coloring application she created for her teacher client, we knew it had to be shared.

To begin, Finley sliced out a section from ear to ear, then angled foils from the ear to the middle of the head on each side, leaving an almost-triangle section in the middle, combined with 40-volume developer and Olaplex.
