  • I'm trying to grow my hair out naturally so I wanted to share how I maintain it for cheap at home! I hate the brassiness that my brown hair gives off after a while so I love toning it at home for a quick fix.

    Wow this worked even better than I hoped! I had my hair dyed at the salon a few months ago to match my natural colour (light brown) to try to grow it out but it has faded to an awful reddish brown and root regrowth (with a few sparkly greys). I followed your tutorial exactly and it is a rich medium brown. Not just a dull flat brown, there is definitely dimension. It's honestly very pretty and shiny and doesn't feel damaged. I'm blown away! The root regrowth is just blended in and most of the greys (I don't have many but they drive me crazy) are covered as well. Thank you so much for this tutorial!!

I have a light brown balayage that is now lightened quite a bit, the lightest piece of my hair is a golden blonde and I really wanted a medium brown colour and I’m so glad I tried the 7a! Your video was a god send! Warning to everyone out there your hair will be a little darker as shown in the video but if that’s what you are looking for this works great!

    A demi color usually appears to be a shade darker because it is deposit only. Also an Ash tone color usually looks a shade darker because it absorbs light rather than reflecting like a warm tone. Therefore the combination of a demi 7A (medium ash blonde) on her level 7 warm toned hair looks like a level 5A (lightest ash brown). For a lighter (dark ash blonde) shade result she could use 8A (light ash blonde). The activator lotion is only 6 Volume and so doesn't lighten, just deposit.

I had to go to 2 different Sally’s 3 times because I got the wrong color at first (no clue how I managed that 🤣) then when I went to exchange it they didn’t have the right color so I had to go a few towns over to another one 🤦🏻‍♀️ I picked up two boxes though so I’ll be good for a little bit! In about a month or two I’m gonna color with with a dark ash brown and hopefully that will cover it for the most part for good. Other than that I’m staying away from anything but my natural color! Thank you again! 😊

    So, what might be happening here is the "a" in 7a is toning the reddish color out of the hair. The low level developer (10 vol.) is causing little to no lift or deposit of color. She is basically changing the tone of her her not the level. Her hair may be appearing darker but it is the tone that makes it look that way.

      Another commenter @sugrmag3 explained it well: A demi color usually appears to be a shade darker because it is deposit only. Also an Ash tone color usually looks a shade darker because it absorbs light rather than reflecting like a warm tone. Therefore the combination of a demi 7A (medium ash blonde) on her level 7 warm toned hair looks like a level 5A (lightest ash brown). For a lighter (dark ash blonde) shade result she could use 8A (light ash blonde). The activator lotion is only 6 Volume and so doesn't lighten, just deposit.

    • @striketochill

      Also an ash color will never turn your brassy hair green - that would only happen if you had like light blonde hair and were going darker without filling with a red first.

      Demi permanent hair dye deposits color on the surface of the hair. Demi permanent colors use a low level developer,unlike a semi permanent which doesn’t. The A in 7a is for ash, and ash tones will tone the brassy orange colour in her hair, that’s why demi pennant colors can be used to tone the hair. It is Demi permanent so it’s not a long term solution, the deposited color does wash out eventually.

    • @sugrmag3
      @sugrmag3 3 роки тому +1

      @@melissarenee7565 hi, I just saw your comment. If you’re a ‘light pink’ initially, that indicates that you have previously lifted your original color to a pale blonde color, ie: yellow or pale yellow, and then applied a pink color to that result. Whether it faded from a brighter pink or was applied as a light pink, it doesn’t alter that the hair underneath the color is devoid of the original pigment molecules that were lifted by the lightening (bleaching) process. You don’t state what you used to get the pink, whether a Demi-permanent or ‘semi’ permanent ie: direct dye. Either will eventually fade to a pastel shade.
      Wella 5A isn’t a Toner, it’s a Permanent (or Semi-Permanent) Tint, ie: Dye. It has a Green base. This with the Red base of the pink shade previously applied will cancel each other out so to speak, as they are opposing each other on the color wheel, leaving a Neutral tone. Be careful going down more than 2 shades once lightened as this is how you can end up with a green or other strange color result. You first need to Fill the hair (put back in the pigment color removed in the initial lightening), and then put the desired shade on the hair, or possibly a shade lighter. Without knowing what is in the hair it’s not possible to responsibly suggest what to use next other than a good protein deep conditioning treatment followed by a good moisturizing deep treatment to restore and repair the hair and assist with the high porosity. This will help achieve a uniform color result. Without more details about what was used, I can’t suggest what you might want to use. You haven’t stated what you prefer it to end up as other than more ash. Ash is a tone like warm or golden. It doesn’t suggest a color (blonde, brunette...) or level (dk blonde ie: level 6/7, lt brown ie: 4/5, etc.).
