"Okay now that we've sectioned our hair off into four sections, what we're going to go ahead and do is start the application. So what we're going to go ahead and do is get our highlighting comb, go ahead and turn just a little bit, now with this technique we're just going to be doing the top area here, so what we're going to do is take it about half way up, drop that section there now with this technique for me it is a more natural highlight that's easier to do at home if need be. So what you're going to do is drop that section out. If need be you can clip that out of the way. Then you're going to take your first section. You're going to do about a half an inch, quarter inch to half an inch, pull that out and clip the rest away. What you're going to do is take this section that you've pulled out here, take your foil with your comb, place it right there on top. Now with this technique, with this bolyaus technique, it's just going to be a painted on thing so you can just paint it right on very lightly. Bring it straight down until your color has saturated the hair. Now what you're going to do is, your going to fold. Fold your, foil give it another fold, one more fold this way one more fold that way and we're done with that section. So now what we're going to do is we're going to take about a another quarter to half an inch section, drop that down take about another quarter inch section above that drop that down, clip this away, and what you're going to do is take that quarter inch that you dropped down and go on to your next section. Same thing with your comb. Place it, pull your comb out, take your product lightly just apply it; apply it through your ends and same thing. We're going to give it a fold another fold and two last folds we're going to continue this until we get to the top so we'll take another quarter inch section drop that out and clip this out of the way so then we're going to drop these sections a quarter until we get to the top and then we're going to go on to our next section."
