Make sure your hair is dry, mix the dye and developer together, take the bottle and mix it by shaking and turning it over and over, make sure it is well mixed together pour it on your hair rubbing it and into your scalp rubbing it in to your roots, by the ear and temple make sure to put plenty of dye on there and the top towards the back rub it in. let it stand on your hair for 20 Min. then rinse it but at first just put enough water on your hair to form a suds like a shampoo, then take your head out of water, staying over the sink, rub it like you are shampooing rub it especially good round ears and temple, top of scalp towards the back, after you are done doing that and you think the dye is totally rubbed into the scalp and hair, then rinse with luke warm water, keep rinsing till you see the water clear, then you are done.

continue drying as if you had just shampooed your hair, when it drys, continue to put conditioner and moisturizer, and hair mask, is what I use, to keep the moisture in your hair, I always leave it on over night, I put a shower cap on, in the morning i rinse it out and try to leave some in, if your hair is dry and brittle, do the mask and moisturizer every night and put a shower cap on and sleep with the treatment on your hair, if you don't want to do it every night then at least 3 times a week, till it feels soft, it will also help the color last longer , I usually dye my hair every 3 months, so the color last for that, it says on the box to dye every 3 to 4 weeks long, but this will give you double the time to keep the color in your hair, but do remember to put mask in your hair to keep the moisture in. Good Luck.
