Formula: White-Hot Blonde

STEP 1: To regrowth apply Redken Flash Lift with 20 volume. Bring to line of demarkation. 

STEP 2: Apply Redken Flash Lift to the ends with 40 volume (blended with Olaplex, lowering volume to 30 volume). 

STEP 3: Process for 35 minutes.  Rinse, shampoo and repeat. Towel dry.

STEP 4: Tone with Redken Shades EQ: 1oz of 9t and 1oz of 9v I mixed with 1 1/2 of processing solution and 1/2oz of clear ("I didn't want it to be a true 'level 9'. I wanted it to be more of a level 10.")

STEP 5: Process for 2 minutes and then rinse and apply step 2 Olaplex for 5 minutes.
