If you are nervous about getting it on the base, do a practice run using just conditioner ( its about the same consistency). If you don't get any on the knots or base you will be all set.

The first time I tried it I was scared as hell. It was really much easier than I thought it would be.

Buckeye, thanks. Two questions:

1. How do you get the bowl or styrofoam head to stay upside down? (lol, sorry, it may be a stupid question but i can't think of it right now)
2. Do you find that your roots are obviously a different color due to the extra care of not getting the solution on the knots or lace and thus not coloring them? Or can you get that close to the base? Or is it just not that noticeable?

If I'm good at this I think I'll just do what Debbie suggested and order my fronts blonde and color the hair so all the knots will be invisible.
