- Prep the hair by spraying Purify and Revive PRIME to diminish any hard water minerals
- Taking ½“ sections, apply HydraGloss Formula 1 as a Stretch Root, varying how far you drag it down to add depth.
- Then go back through taking ½” sections and apply ChromaSilk HydraGloss Formula 2 to the mid-lengths and ends blending them gently into the Stretch Root.
- Process 20 minutes at room temperature.
- Cleanse and condition with PRAVANA's Color Protect regimen.
- Style as desired. Pro Tip: For hair that is very porous, cleanse first with Purify & Revive Cleanse to diminish any minerals and apply Silk Degrees Prep & Treat for 5 minutes to equalize the porosity and rinse. ChromaSilk HydraGloss can be applied to well towel-dried hair.
