"Now that we have got our section in our foil and I want to go ahead and explain is the reason we have our foils folded so tight is that we do not want it to slip. Sometimes when you have your product in your foil if you do not fold it up enough it tends to slip and you do not want to get what we call bleeding of the color on to the hair that you do not want your color on. So we are going to go ahead and fold it, and fold it, and then we fold it until it is really locked in there. Now one of the reasons why we use foil is because it locks so much easier. Also some chemicals like bleach and color do process faster when using heat so what you are going to do is sit under a dryer as this is done or use a blow dryer to kick he process up a little bit more. So we are going to let that set until approximately ten or fifteen minutes longer until your desired color and then we will go on to our next step. "
