      STEP 2: Easy Application
      OPTION A: ALL OVER COLOR
      For first time haircolor users and those who have not colored for 3 months.
         1. 1. Apply Color
              Part your hair into small, even sections using the applicator nozzle. Apply color first to your damp roots and then immediately through the length of your damp hair. Do not rub into scalp.
         2. 2. Time It
              Now that you have applied the color to your hair, leave it on hair for 10 minutes or the time indicated by your Strand Test.

      Tips from the experts:
          * When covering gray, start where you have the most gray.
          * Don't worry if the color of the mixture on your hair looks different from your desired color.
          * If any color gets onto your skin or household surface, wipe it off immediately with a damp towel.
          * For resistant gray hair, you can leave color on for an additional 10 minutes. Total time should not exceed 20 minutes.
          * For permed or relaxed hair, leave color on for only 8 minutes total.

      OPTION B: ROOT APPLICATION
      For users who color every 4-6 weeks.
         1. 1. Apply Color
              On damp hair apply mixture only to the new hair growth at the roots instead of applying color to your entire head.
              Save the remainder of the color to use for the rest of your damp hair.
         2. 2. Time It
              Now that you have applied the mixture to your new hair growth, leave on hair for 5 minutes.
              Then gently work the remaining color through the rest of your hair (avoid rubbing into the scalp) and leave it on hair for an additional 5 minutes.

      Tips from the experts:
          * For resistant gray hair, you may need to leave color on the root area for an additional 5-10 minutes before working color down for the last 5 minutes. Total time should not exceed 20 minutes.
          * For permed or relaxed hair, leave color on for only 8 minutes total.

      STEP 3: Rinse and Condition
         1. 1. Rinse
              Wearing gloves, add a small amount of warm water to your hair and work into a lather by gently massaging. Rinse hair thoroughly until water runs clear. For best results, wait 24 hours before shampooing.
         2. 2. Condition
              Next, apply a small amount (about the size of a nickel) of the Once A Week Color Treat  Color Conditioning Treatment-3 evenly to your hair. For best results leave on for 2 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water. Save the remainder for up to 5 more weekly conditioning treatments (See Tip below).

      Tip from the experts:
          * Once a week substitute your regular conditioner for our Once A Week Color Treat  Color Conditioning Treatment to help maintain your healthy, natural-looking color.
