Description My rainbow is beginning to show signs of fade at the tips. Not sure if I should let it do some major fading or retouch color at a time...

------

Here's how:
** Bleach hair to pale yellow at the top and light brown or lighter at the bottom first. **
Separate your hair into chunks (I had mine divided into probably about 20 sections).
Doing one section at a time, apply red to the roots.
Next, apply a large section of yellow. Use your fingers to rub upwards into some of the red (will create orange).
After that, apply a large section of blue. Again, use your fingers to rub the blue upwards into the yellow (be careful with this part, blue easily stains and overpowers yellow).
Purple comes next, did the majority of what was left of my strand of hair leaving about an inch or two at the very bottom to apply the pink over. Used my fingers to spread pink up into the purple and purple up into the blue.
Once you're done with the section, wrap it up in foil (this traps the moisture in and keeps the dye wet - dye is most active while wet, so that's what the purpose of this is).

** I left mine in overnight (about 12 hours total). Rinse out under cold water... style as usual, and voila! **
