Step One
First step is to comb through your hair and put on the cap, if you've never worn one of these before you'll definitely have a bit of a laugh looking at yourself in the mirror.
Step Two
This is probably the trickiest part, basically you're aiming to pull out pieces of hair through the X's on the cap. In the pack is a little hair hook tool which you poke through the X and pull out a few strands of hair. I forgot to include this in the picture so improvised with a black line. I use two mirrors to see what I was doing at the back of my head.
Step Three
When you reach the stage of looking like a strange bald barbie, you know you've pulled enough hair out. The more hair you pull out of the cap the more highlights you will have which is great because you can control how light the final result will be. Then it's just a case of applying the bleach, simply mix together the bleach powder and developer and paint onto the hair starting from the hairline. Once you're done, cover with the developer cap.

The development time is anywhere between 15 and 90 minutes, this depends on the original colour of your hair. There are instructions in the pack so it's easy to work out, plus you can check on the colour every ten minutes to see how well it's lifting.
This kit can be used on both light and dark hair which should work for just about anyone, but be aware here that using any kind of bleach over previously dyed hair- especially if it's been dyed dark- is unpredictable and could land you any shade of orange or yellow. If your hair has been dyed your safest bet is always do a strand test first so you have some idea of the colour you'll end up with. Jerome Russell have loads of different bleaching kits available and can be found anywhere you'd buy hair dye from including Boots, Superdrug and eBay
