How to Professionally Tone Hair At Home
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 лип 2017
- In this video I want to show you how to professionally tone your blonde or brunette hair at home using products available at Sallys or other places to people without a cosmetology license but still achieve salon quality results. Heres a run down of the formulas I talk about in the video:
For levels 8 and lower use the 7A wella color charm Demi-perm to tone out orange tones
For bright blonde hair with yellow tones tone with 10NA wella color charm demi-perm to bash any brass.
Always mix with activating lotion in the right ration, 1 part color cream and 2 parts activating lotion.
May you have beautifully toned hair non matter what your level!

At one time professional products were available to people without a license until hairdressers started whining about not being able to make as much money because of that. The hairstyling products that you can buy in a salon have usually a 50% mark up but some go even higher than that. What they charge for hair styling products now has reached the pure greed stage. Some are now charging around $31.00 dollars for a hair styling creme plus tax and that is for a tiny jar.
All these years down the road and I STILL refer to Ellebangs before running to Sally's!
Hannah
Omg me too!!!!
🤣🤣🌈
Same!!! I freaken love her!!! She's the only one I trust on YT for hair advice!!! 🥰
same!
Every time!!
You are a life saver especially during these times where most hairdressers are closed ❤️❤️❤️
You are awesome! I have been using this as a toner for a few years and always go back to it when I have tried others. Now I can show my family ( who always come to me to highlight their hair) that it's the right product to use. Thank you I enjoy watching your videos so much.
I am so happy you updated your toning technique with this video! I used the old video as a reference for a long time and always got a warm root. For some reason I searched your channel for an updated video on toning and here it was! I can’t wait to try it this weekend! Love you Elle Bangs!
The reason you were getting a brassy root with the t18 & t11 combo is likely because your hair wasn’t at a level 9 or 10 this is for the wells color charm you can customize the level as well as the tone.
What do I do as you have had good results can you please send me what I need please ❤
In all the years I have had my hair professionally sone they have never used a toner. I used these products this morning and it looks awesome. Thanks Silvia for the tips.
You are amazing, I highlight and tone my hair based on your videos. I watch a lot of them, but eventually I end up using your advices, because what you say to do is understandable and easy to do at home. Thank you so much😊.
Thank you so much for making this video! I am a recent cosmo graduate who just got her license. Unfortunately I wasn't trained very well in my school. So videos like this are a god sent! I love how well you explained how the wella line worked and what to look for when picking out a product. Thank again. If you could do a similar video on the redken shades eq that would be amazing! I hear such great things about that line but I'm intimidate to use it. Love your content!
watched this while in sally's so i got the right thing 😂
lmao me rn
Me today lol
Im watching this on my way to Sallys
Watching this as I walk out the door to get mine 😂
I made a list 😂😂
I’ve watched several of these videos and felt there could be more showing and less telling.
The beauty of UA-cam is the ability to show the process.
Judy M. seriously. At least get a wig and if u don’t have clients haha
I agree
Judy M. Agree
After watching it I'm still confused what NOT to mix it with. Have to rewatch it again 🙈
Thank you so much for doing this video! I know a professional will always give me the best color, but I love doing some things at home. I have been using demi permanent color at home for months now, I love how it is no commitment, and if I mess it up I just need to wash it like crazy to get it out. Thank you for the product names and describing them, it great for those of us that primarily color at home.😙
I have watched many many hair coloring tutorials etc. etc. and by far this one explains toning the clearest I’ve ever heard it and I want to thank you for that!!
@ellebangs just now seeing this video but literally this is exactly what I've been searching for to fix my hair!!! You're amazing!!!!
I always learn so much from you !!! Your defintley my favorite and only UA-cam hair professional!!! Love ya
I saw too many videos with other hairdressers, but for me, your`s the best. Light voice, beautiful hair (we always look at the hairdressers' hair, this is a quality indicator for the client) informativeness, precision for advice, no blah blah, no unexpected screams (sorry B.M)Go ahead, gorgeous, be healthy, be happy.
What a good idea, using the wella demi as a toner! I work at Sallys Beauty Supply and I am a licensed cosmetologist...Blond Brilliance (found at sallys) Also has a GREAT line for blondes leaning a bit more brassy! I was pleasantly surprised by their brand! Thanks for the video, very helpful as always!
omg, this has helped so much with my brassy orange problem i've been having
It’s so nice to see someone giving out toning advice other than T18&T14... lol 😂 nothing against those, but I myself personally have never had just fabulous results with the Wella Toners.. As a pro myself I do have to agree that shades EQ is definitely where it’s at!!! However, the closest pro store to me is over an hour away 😫 so anytime I’m doing color for someone outside of the salon I usually end up going to Sally’s and trying me best to find products that perform as closely as possible to the ones we use in the salon .. I’ve discovered a toner at Sally’s that is the BOMB 💣 they are so close to shades 10P & 10T !!! It’s the Ion Color brilliance cream Toners the Platinum Lace is similar to 10T and Snow Cap is similar together 10p!!!!! Like I can’t brag on those toners enough!!!! I highly recommend giving them a try!!!
I happened to stumble across your channel looking for tips on toning hair bc i haven't been very successfully with the wella toners but i have confidence i got it right with these products so i thank you very much 💗
This. Freaken. Worked! I had a really ugly yellow orange tone at about a level 7. I used the demi permanent 7 ash with the activation lotion and holy Molly finally something that actually worked! Seriously thank you!
does your hair need to be wet, washed first?
Currently trying this praying to Elle Bangs goddess to send good energy!
Thank You! Super helpful information. I love the breakdown of the products and being informed on what NOT to accidentally buy. Your videos are great!
Thanks for the video. You’ve taught me all about toners. I couldn’t help but notice that some of the comments below are suggesting that this doesn’t work. Elle has multiple videos on how to tone and where you need to be to get the right color shade for your current hair color to tone properly. Not being rude but if your results are not what you’re seeking, then maybe go back to one of her older videos to learn more about the concept of toning. Btw I’m not a professional but since I’ve been following this channel my at home results are spot on. However, I’ve made learning the entire process of lightening my own hair by carefully watching almost all of her videos that relate to lift, and toning my hair.
I'm grey. It's way under served on UA-cam. There are lots of us who would like to screw around with our hair until its' pretty and still grey or white. Think Diane Keaton. Wish you'd do videos on grey hair bleaching & toning, making it even, various grey colors, etc. Thanks!
THERE ARE NO GOOD VIDEOS lol. I'm trying to get a grey/silver look but I cant find any videos lol.
I'm sure there are other hair experts addressing this on UA-cam.
Yes, I need that too!
I’ve watched 45, 768 videos looking for those videos! Good luck! SOMEONE HEAR OUR CALL!!
Jamie Dana has one on UA-cam
Very helpful! Thank you! I always got the lightest toner instead of getting the level that matched the lightest level I had. Now I know and it makes so much sense 😊
Tried this a few days ago and it really did the trick - thanks!! I have dark hair with balyage that takes me down to about a level 11 blonde. I focused on the lighter areas that had turned really brassy and the result was fantastic! Your videos are amazing and full of so much useful information. So glad I found them! :)
Maria Anderson did you use this on wet or dry hair? Did it affect the color of your new growth/brown?? Thanks!
You are the best ever !!!!! I have been looking for this for many months and boom I found you thank youuuuuuuuuuuuu
My hair rocks because of you...plus you have saved me a TON of $$$$$
I needed to just thank you for your wonderful content!!! Im a military spouse and a SAHM therefore spending a couple hundred dollars at a salon every 6-8 weeks is just not doable. I am very grateful to you for creating this channel. You explain everything and give such clear examples/photos. Keep up the amazing work!!!!
+Farrah Sanchez aw thank you so much :) That's why I started making these videos xx
I'm going to be a SAHM soon too! So I'm trying to learn how to do my hair at home too:)
Awesome, Silvia! Just bought the semi-permanent toner and activator and supplies from Sally's! Doing my first baby lights and toner later this week! 💕❤️💕
The best explanation of levels and toners based on your level. THE BEST.
I have strawberry light blonde dyed hair, would love a video like this for the Nicole Kidman type strawberry blondes or just a range of different blondes aside from ash blonde. you're expertise is always so helpful 💜
LOVE your videos💙
Saaaaame. Hard to find anything at all for my hair color. I realized I was spending too much time fighting the strawberry 🍓
yay!! Been waiting for this!
Everyone cannott afford to go to the salon and pay 200 dollars to get hair colored or toned. SO Thank you.I HAVE colored my hair at home many times and it looks good.I follow your videos.
I love how concise you are. Lots of content creators (especially in the beauty category), talk talk talk.
I recently decided to stop getting my hair highlighted at a salon and to do it at home. Everyone I colored my hair the roots were extremely orange!! It was so frustrating for me. You really helped me with this video!! My hair is a lot darker blonde but very ashy. Thank you!!
I've learned more from you in the past 5 videos than I did in my two years of beauty school. Thank you.
Right! Beauty school is programmed to teach sanitation and few basic 101’s to be able to pass state board exam. Its really a hands on career...you learn in the salon. Assisting or what I recommend is a full apprenticeship. It is worth the few years if your close to a bigger city. Boston is 3 miles from me and uponnfinoshing my apprenticeship in Europe I came home and spent another 2 years assisting for a celebrity stylist. I loved it all! Im more into color transformation/correction and huge for styling. Stylist hardly style hair anymore, barely give a real and genuine 1 hour hair cut...its a 2 minute point cut @$190 no blow dry included!! Crazy! I tefuse to pay to have my hair done. These videos are great to help keep me in the know! I trained with Wella and KP so Im siked Wella is easy to pick up 🙌💯
This video is perfect. You answered my questions and I can't wait to try adding the demi. I've fault the red/yellow for 6 months!
Yes! This is exactly the info I was searching for and had no idea about the activating lotion and demi-perm because I have a wee bit of regrowth and didn't want to lift it, thank you!
The 7a worked amazing for me! 😍
Thank you for this video! I've always had an issue with my low lights turning gold after using a toner! This is an answer to my prayers! ❤️
Wow I love your videos. I have learned so much from them. I just started the process of lighting my hair and now I understand the process. Thank you!
I love your videos. I have tried some of your tips and they work great! Please keep them coming!!!
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FORNTHANK YOU!!!!
Yeah, Wella 12A permanent color on my platinum highlights was brassing my lowlights (even with a 10 dev.) Just tried the 10NA demi-permanent you suggested and WOW, yellow was mellowed into a great non-brass head of soft & pretty blonde - SO nice between salon visits and I thank you, Silvia
before you used the 10NA were your lowlights brassy? I have brassy lowlights and am trying to figure out how to fix them without messing up my blonder pieces. My lowlights are a level 7-8.
(but the lowlights only have color on them, not bleach)
Thank you so much, lots of great info! I love that you always explain every bit of detail in all your videos,🤗
Thank you so much for this video! I actually have my cosmetology licences but haven't done hair professionally in 25 years. My 16 year old daughter put blue in her hair. It stuck to her hi-lights. I had to bleach the blue pieces to get it out. I then put the 10na in to tone her hair and it looks great!
Whoa! I am the darker-haired example that she used in this video haha - so crazy to see myself on an ellebangs video haha! My result was actually just from using a grey/titanium semi permanent colour on top of my light brown golden hair. It worked really well (although temporary), and was not damaging. Just wanted to put that out there if anyone is looking for a less damaging solution (my video is called How To Tone Dark Brassy Hair). Of course the 7A example that she used would work too! :)
+somegirljess Hi!! Awesome, thanks for sharing. Loved your hair on Pinterest! 😍
somegirljess Hey jess love your channel I have been following you for 2 years now! ❤️ from Toronto!!
+Sara Sa xoxoxo!!! :) :)
+J Haley ahahaha!! :)
+ellebangs Thanks love! (I've learned a lot from you over the years!)
Literally been watching this since 2 years an still 2 years later I’m back for her guidance 💕😂🤦🏻♀️
So glad I watched this before walking into Sally's. I have sparse baby lights/balayage in my natural hair. When I've used wella toners in between the salon to rid brassiness, I hate that it would lift my natural hair. Thanks so much!!
This channel is saving my hair game during quarantine...🙌🏻😍
You seriously saved me with this ! The demi permanent 10 fixed my brassy hair and it it a pretty blonde now! I tried 2 toners before this with no results, thank you so so much, you're a coloring genius!
Phoebe Differ Did you use it on wet or dry hair? And did you put it on your new growth?? I'm scared it might turn my roots orange. 😣 I am letting my bleach sit in my hair as we speak lol!
@@michaelidoyle oh honey I'm on the same boat as you are right now! Not to mention my hair is pretty long and I'm in no position to go into the salon for corrections. Have you tried out her recommendations?
hi elle, i've been watching your videos about toning hair and find them useful. if you've already bleached your hair with permanent dye on, how often should you be toning your hair with demi-permanent dye? love your videos, i find them rly educational and love that you're a professional who advocates educating yourself to make your own decisions. could you go into toning for asian hair that's been bleached and dyed to ash?
This was the most helpful video I've seen on the subject, coming from a new bee cosmetologist... thank you !
Thank you! I keep looking for a toner I can use at home without developer, I can’t wait to try this! 🙏🏼💜
Just what I was looking for 😱 thanks!!
I'm so happy to have toning explained now that I'm coloring my hair at home, what with the pandemic going on and all. the only thing I'd like to see more of is an explanation of how to put this on the hair - do you put it all over your head, like all-over hair color, or do you apply it only to the brassy sections individually? And then, how long to let it on? Thank you for the at-home hair help!
You are the BEST. I live in Boca Raton, home of very expensive highlighted blondes. I'm a natural dark blonde and I do my own lightening (roots) and highlights.Now toning too! I get compliments on my hair color all the time! I always refer them to you! Thanks for answering all our questions and challenges with blonde hair. XOXO
You are my hair goals. Love your tutorials! Thanks for helping so much!
Thank YOU SO MUCH for doing this video and finding a product like This! I have had SO much trouble keeping my ends toned, but my roots virgin! The regular Wella toners would turn my roots brassy and defeat the whole purpose! I was ready to throw in the towel...until I saw this video! My ends are a level 7A, but my roots are a level 2, black. So as you can imagine, there is a lot of brassy pigments between the two levels! Thankfully this toner did everything you claimed it would and my hair is nice and Ashy, just how I like It! 🖒😉
Which product did you use? Did it fix your brassy roots? Or just tone the blonde?
How did you fix your brassy roots?! This just happened to me aaaaah
Brittany Behnke search the video ‘how to tone dark brassy hair’ by somegirljess!
I use the same redken toner at home. Could you recommend something from that line for a level 7+ balayage. I tend to pull red/orange brassy hair.
Omg!!! I am just watching American beauty star and realized this is you!!!! I'm routing for you!!!!! You're amazing!!!
Thank you for this video!! I just bought toner and perm hair color at Sally's and I had no idea when to use the toner in the coloring process. So, thanks again and wish me luck!! 😘🤞
Thank u so much!! I'm gonna pick them up tmr but I have a question. Do we put this on damp or dry hair?
my saturday always gets brighter when i see youve made a video ! thank you for sharing this everything ive learned about hair i learned from you ! thank you for teaching us the right way to do our hair at home! :)
+tfrazee1 aw thanks lovely, this totally makes my day! 💛
ellebangs plz help me i live in jordan and i bleached my hair and cant find toner any ware i tried purple shampoo its not going away what do i do plzzzzz help
@@withallahheartsrest4465 What exactly is not "going away". If you mean the orange-ish shade after bleaching, this means you have not reached the end of the bleach cycle on your hair. You can search all this, but basically if you are left with orange hair after bleaching, you either should have used a higher volume developer OR left the formula on for a longer amount of time OR your natural hair colour and texture requires the use of a double-process bleach, meaning bleaching hair twice. This last one can be a little more involved, as the second bleach need not be the same harsh formula as the first, as you likely only need to go up 3 shades, and not 5-7 like the first. Anyway, just google it and Im sure you'll figure it out. Toner will only mask the problem at this point, and the problem will reappear within a month or two.
I did this and it semi worked! I had pretty brassy brunette on the body blending into a pretty light blonde on the ends. What I ended up doing was using a level 8A on the darker part of my hair which was about a level 7-8 and blended into 10A for the lighter part of my hair at the bottom. It worked pretty well( way better than T18 or 14) on the lighter strands that were more blonde than brunette and muted the brassiness a bit on the reddish orange parts. Its not a cure all for sure and I will def need to go to the salon, but it will work for the time being. IT WILL MAKE YOUR HAIR DARKER, but usually so does toner so im not complaining. Its Demi- permanent so it will fade. Thanks Elle!
Thank you so much for doing this research!! So helpful and thorough!!💜
finally, i found the correct video. thank you , thank you
I just did this tonight and the results were NOT what I was expecting at all. It still looks nice and toned down my brassiness, but also deposited a lot more color back to my hair. I had a level 7/8 baylayage on my level 4/5 natural hair, and the ends were getting so brassy. I used the 7a wella demi with the activating lotion, left on for 20 min, and washed out with a deep conditioner. While I don't dislike the final color, which is basically an allover ashy medium to light brown baylayage, some of my golden tones still show and it's very hard to even tell the difference in level between my roots and ends without curling it and being in natural sunlight. I was hoping to be able to do this long term and save some money from going to the salon just for toning, but now I'll have to have my next appointment lift my color again and tone/color correct. Maybe if I only left this on for 5-10 min it would have deposited just enough to get my desired effect? Too late to know now :/ Also if you have baylayge I recommend applying from ends to roots.
In the video she mentions to tone based on the lightest colour of hair so maybe an 8a would have been better and may not have darken the rest of your hair as much.
So glad I came across this video.. I tried the 7 ash and my hair turned out great!! Before it was a yellow, brassy color.. The 7 ash tone down the brass and it looks super natural..
One of your best videos, thank you so much for the tip!
Next time you tone, if you could film using the Wella Color Charm Demi permanent that would be super helpful!
You're joking, right?
@@VeroSCIA Why would I be joking? I love when Silvia does a demo.
@@VeroSCIA I agree with Andrea Rodgers , I would like to see that as well
@@AndreaRodgers Because she doesn't use Wella products on her hair. She uses Redkens Professional line products that she mentioned in the video. Her goal is finding products for her audience that are readily available at supply companies such as Sally's. Although, professional products can be purchased online by anyone on websites, you have to be careful that the products are legit.
@@VeroSCIA she doesn’t have to use it on her own hair, but it would be nice to see it used.
Hey. Is it ok to bleach hair then use the permanent dye, with developer ?
Or is that too much for your hair. Thanks.
omy thank you very much! I'm so glad you did an updated video on this.
THANK YOU! You explained everything so clearly! This information helped out a lot! 💜💜💜
Do you apply this on damp hair or dry? And how long do you leave it on for?
Super informative video, but I have a lot of questions. Looking through all these comments, I see many people with the same questions. I understand you are very busy, but I was hoping you would answer/reply to some of these questions so I can get a better idea of how this would work. Please answer some questions if you get the chance!!! We value your professional advice.
Wow! I'm so glad I found ur channel. U explain things so great!
I love your videos. I don't really practice on my hair but I so appreciate how you explain how it works thank you
Love this! Thanks for the #WellaColorcharmLove!
Can u do a tutorial of how to do this❤️
perfect. I had that exact problem with your last video and this is the perfect solution!!!
Hear me out- YOU ARE A GODSENT!!! Thank you so much for all of your videos!!!!!! If I lived in America- I would be going only to your salon!!
please clarify something for me, is Shades EQ developer 10 Volume or less than 10 volume?
Mckenzie Schafer I know this is late but it is neither. Like the Wella Color Charm Demi, it has an activating solution.
Hi Silvia, I have a question for you which is a bit puzzling to me. Wella Activating Lotion is basically a 20 Vol. Developer. For Demi Permanent Hair Coloring/Toning in general, the recommendation is to mix with 10 vol. Developer. So there must be something in Wella's Lotion that makes it safe to use with Demi Permanent Hair Color. My question is, what exactly is the difference between Wella's Activating Lotion and 10 Vol.(which is a no-lift) developer?
this was extremely helpful, youre amazing!!!
EXACTLY what I’ve been needing. Wish I found you years ago.
Can 7A and 10NA be mixed to combat both the orange tones and brassy yellow tones? Also what will these toners do to grey hair?
Love your tips! Thank you! You are gorgeous!
I combined the t18 & t11 before I saw your channel. I was excited to see you to it too. Sometimes I use t14 & t11 or t10, t14 &t 15. For medium to dark blondes I use t27 & t35 mixed. Wella has a combo for everyone. I will mix toner with permanent wella color.
I did 7A and it made my hair dark af! Ugh! 😩
Edit: yes my hair was much darker, but after one wash my color has already lightened. It looks beautiful. The brown became brown and the highlights have no orange brassy color to them.
Inconclusión: im sorry for ever doubting you 😉
OMG SAME!! MY EXACT SITUATION AND MY HAIR IS SO LIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL AFTER ONE WASH! I was looking for someone else who did the same. Hope your hair looks even more beautiful now 💛
Destiny Serrano it does! Thanks 😊 😘
Hi, how long did you put this on your hair before rinsing it out? Thanks
After going to a salon 💇♀️ and they ruined my level 10hair . I’m going to home coloring 😎
@@luaneketcherd7996 how did it work out?
*Will this effect the highlighting process if I do it too close to my next foil appointment?* great video btw!!
Did you ever find out? I'm wondering as well, thx!
Wanting to know this as well!
Just went from red to blonde. It’s quite the process! Hope to visit your salon someday!
I've tried so many toners.. The only toner that i love is fancy full temporary color rinse in minx.. LOVE LOVE IT.. seriously try it Blondies😊
can you do a video on covering gray?
+Milica Petrov I actually did that really recently - I did a demo on my mum, just search my channel under the color playlist :)
ellebangs oh i must have missed it, thanks!
@@Ellebangs it would be helpful if not just the words but supply the link since you know where it is and we don't, its often not easy to find things on a playlist. thanx
I'm scared after reading all the comments. I'm brunette with a super ashy balayage, probably a 6/7, and near my hairline I'd say I'm a 10....when I wait a month to see the stylist for a "tone update" it's too long, I'm brassy in 3 weeks I'd say.
Once I lightened my roots with a 10 developer & now I have many lowlights & varying degrees of highlights I don't think I can just throw on to the lightest lift & go....it just feels far more complex.
As we get older, and gray is an issue - we can just throw on our natural color anymore, it's a science I don't understand.
Thank you so much! I really needed this information! I bleached my hair at home and havent been able to find the right toner for my hair 🙏🏼❤️
Literally bought this the day before your video. I haven't even had time to use it yet. I feel a lot more confident in my choice now though.
Could you be so kind as to do a video for those of us with greying hair. I'm too young to go grey but i need some ideas on how to deal with it. Thanx for being out there 😘
I know this problem so well! Right now I have really dark chocolate brown hair with platinum blonde pieces throughout. Toning my blonde pieces is a pain in my ass! I've always used the color charm toner in T18 with a 20 volume and have had to work very fast and not get it on the dark. I switched to a 10 volume and it worked great 👍🏻
sweetpea- KellyAnn what does it do to the darker parts of you hair?
I've just purchased T18 & vol 20 I've not used it yet.
Sameeee, I don't want it orange LOL
TIME WARP LATE 90's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
