Hairstylist only please..... How do you tone down the yellow in blonde hair after highlights?

Thanks so much...........

Find you a toner with a base color of purple. Purple diverts the yellow color, same as red diverts the greens, or a green base diverts the left over red color in hair.



Use a 20 vol. developer with the color toner you've picked, put it on your hair and then watch it. You DO NOT have to follow the directions on the timing. Once it starts to turn, and looks like the color is grabbing, find a piece of hair to rinse the toner off of, and look at the color. If it looks right, then rinse, wash and move on. If it doesn't look right, then leave it on for a few minutes.



But let me give you a hint also! IF your hair is bleached heavily...and is in BAD shape...when you put a toner on your head, its can possibly pick up the base color in the toner, therefore giving your hair a purple haze to it. SO BE VERY CAREFUL with it!!!! Thats why you really need a professional if you are not used to doing your own hair, or someone to help you with it....



It can, and may grab the base color of the toner used, so...just remember this when you are doing your hair. That means...you do not have to leave it sitting on your hair for the entire amount of time,....just when it looks ready!

There is a product called Fancy Full, it's by Revlon and it's been around for years. (it's in a gray and pink bottle, usually on the bottom shelf with hair products) It's a liquid you squirt onto your hair after shampooing and conditioning. It's basically a toner that you use each time you wash your hair until the brassiness is gone. If you get Fancy Full, be careful not to get it on anything but your hair b/c it stains. You could also go to a beauty supply store and get some toner. Just tell the clerk you want a toner to take away the brassiness. ALSO, I LOVE John Frieda Sheer Blonde products. If you haven't tried them already, you must! It really brings out shine and rids your hair of brassiness! Sheer Blonde takes a few washes to really notice a big difference.

Go to Sall'ys and get fancy full shampoo for blondes. The shampoo is a bluish purple color. This will tone down the yellow. Don't over use this product if your ends look porous it may turn them purple!
