The 20-Minute Gloss Plan (Step-by-Step)

1) Prep (3 min)

• Detangle dry hair. If there’s heavy buildup, do a light clarify first so pigments lay evenly.

2) Shampoo → Towel (4 min)

• Cleanse scalp with a color-safe shampoo; squeeze out excess water thoroughly.

3) Apply Mask (10–12 min)

• Work the semi-permanent color mask through mid-lengths → ends. Comb for evenness.

4) Emulsify → Rinse Cool (2–3 min)

• Add a splash of water, massage, then cool-rinse to help lay the cuticle.

5) Seal & Protect (1–2 min)

• Mist a daily UV/thermal leave-in; finish with a lightweight serum on ends.
