SPRAY VS. STICK WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

3 BIGGEST MISTAKES TO AVOID:

Do not use on wet or damp hair. For best results, apply to dry hair

Avoid holding can too close to your scalp. Always spray 6 inches from desired root area

Upon initial application, opt for buildable coverage. Start with less and add more as needed to get to the ideal color payoff that best matches your hair color

  • FOR MATCHING THE OVERALL COLOR OF YOUR HAIR:

    Examine the hair color you currently have - from the eyeline down to your ends. This is the color that you want to match. For best results, make sure you are standing in natural light.

  • FOR MATCHING YOUR NATURAL, BASE COLOR:

    Examine the roots of your hair and the base of your hairline - specifically where your new regrowth starts to peek through. While there might be grays, you’ll still notice pieces of hair that are your natural color (also known as your base color); this is the color you want to match.
