OMG! I’ve been searching answers for this exact question and this is the clearest explanation I’ve ever heard! Thank you! I’m now one of your followers.❤
Biggest takeaway is this explains why the "Permanent" purple color I was using with 10 Volume, while more gentle than other permanent colors that normally use 20 volume, still had ammonia in it and did indeed shift my base warm. It was a beautiful color and very vibrant BUT as you said, I would have a demarcation line and also did not want the reddish orangish tones left behind. I really love the way you explain about the "energy exchange" and thank you for addressing T18!
You mind reader! My job for tonight was to research toners so was going to go through your playlist, but you’ve made the exact video I needed! ❤ I was about to buy some more Schwartzkopf Igora Silverwhites in grey lilac as that’s what I always used the last time I had blonde bits and adored the colour (with 20vol, no less). But since learning so much about colour lately (largely thanks to you), I looked at an old tube I had and saw that it was a permanent colour. I just thought toner was toner! I didn’t realise it was so complex, silly me! So now I have to find a demi perm colour that looks the same. I did recently panic-buy the Bleach London Lavender Grey toner, but looking at the box, it says it’s a semi-permanent colour… but it has developer with it (no idea what vol) 🤔 The more I research, the more questions I end up with! 😂 Thanks for predicting that I needed this exact kind of help! 😁
There is nothing silly about you! Thank you so much for your kind words and all your support, really thrilled the video was helpful. The Bleach London colour you have is a Demi, I’ve used a few of them and they are great, if quite pigmented…they call them “semi” but they are slightly oxidative. 👨🏼🙏🏻🩵
Your channel is a breath of fresh air! Do you have a salon in London? I've just been to a local salon and asked for a specific hair colour and was told it would never work on my hair but wasn't given any reason. I'm not convinced and would love a second opinion
Thank you, so glad you’re enjoying it! I see clients from a salon I “rent a chair” in, in W1. You can DM me over on Instagram - craigsworldofhair - for more details. Thanks for watching.
A+ explanation Craig! Also I forgot to add in my previous comments I do a Redken ABC treatment to lower the ph back down after using the alkaline toner.
Thank you! That’s a great line, the Citric Acid does a great job…you’ll enjoy next week’s video, that’s all I’ll say for now, ha. Thanks for watching 👨🏼🙏🏻🩵
There was definitely a lot learned in this video about toners!! When i get down to when i can purchase my bleach, I'll brush up on this again fs!!! I'm still going to look though your Playlist and see if there are some that are more specific to what i want to do. Love your videos bc it feels like a one on one consultation where you are so lighthearted but still professional. Thank you for being here and keeping it real but fun❤❤❤❤🎉🎉!
I’m so glad it was helpful, thanks for watching. They’ll be several on my channel I’m sure, I often feel that I’m constantly telling folks about videos and where they are as there’s so much on here now. Thanks for the kind words…that’s exactly how I want folks to feel when watching…as that’s exactly how I am! 👨🏼🙏🏻🩵
I am learning so much from your channel and information you provide. Thank you. My takeaway was learning about the cuticle is like a pinecone 😅 and also how the developers provide the energy to the process. I am waiting for EQ Gloss developer to arrive to give Demi a go. ❤ The colors have arrived. 😊
Thank you Craig! I recently purchased Wella T18 to use as a toner after I (gulp) global bleach my hair at home for the 1st time...yes im a tad nervous. Anywho, a HUGE thank you!! Now I need to figure out my toner situation. So I'll watch your toning videos. Btw, LOVE your color! ❤
T18 isn’t bad but it does have a lot of ammonia in it, really only needed if you need to lift the hair more. Awww, thank you….its grown out now, I’m back to brunette.
That happened to me!! I went in for highlights and came out with a much lighter color all over my head, and the highlights were so bad they have fallen out, and I am thin in parts, streaky in other. It is horrible. $300 literally down the drain. I am now on minoxidil (for life I understand) and my roots are super dark - terrified to get it fixed. Its been 6 months. I wish I lived in London so I could have you fix it!! Huge hugs!
Sorry to hear you didn’t get the best result, thanks for watching and sharing your experience. That’s right, if you get results you’ll need to continue taking it.
I bleach to a level 10 and I tone by using a 20 volume with a dash of permanent hair die black level 1. I leave it on for 2-5 minutes and the result is snow white platinum. Seriously.
We used to call that a black “drop” (although we did it with demi) and yes it can create great results but it wouldn’t be something I’d educate on, there’s way too much room for interpretation. Thanks for watching and sharing.
@@theworldofcraigI bleached my very long black boxed dyed hair to a level 10 and it took forever! I messed up this black drop method but didn't know you had to mix it with developer. It literally turned back black!😂
There are a couple of videos on here that feature Illumina already. To be honest, I use things to tone with that I prefer using over that particular line.
Thanks for watching - there is already one here on my channel, from a way back, a bleach out with a violet face frame. Being upfront and honest, I doubt I’ll make any more with Illumina, it’s a lovely product but there are things I prefer.
Wow I am just intuitive and I intuitively decided against T14, because it just didn't feel right. I'm still searching for that perfect toner 😢 a mix of sheer V+ and A that will help cover my Level 9 brassy golden hair. Especially in the back!
What I take from this is that the transformation that needs to happen to the hair happens in the lifting process..at least partially...and so you don't need to do it even more so with permanent color...is that right? I think we don't need to lift the cuticle even more because that's going to do more damage.But we can just deposit some color because it's already been lifted because of the lifting process. Yes, Sir Craig?
Ohh love your vids again and again I have changed to shadezQ from old school hairdressing bleach then add toner with 10vol or 1.5 totally understand what your saying it’s just building confidence with shadzQ ohh so much learning still at near 55 but I love Hair ! And love your channel Thankyou Craig love your brightnesss and your shirt x ❤
Ive used permanent blonde colour to tone the hair after bleaching, works for me, but more recently ive found obviously it can be more damaging so i do tone with semi permanent toners where i can
That’s great, always good to have ideas on what folks want to see. I could do a video on pH for sure….I’ve featured Illumina on my channel previously but probably won’t again, I use other products I prefer.
Craig: I have naturally dark to medium brown hair that has a fair amount of red in it but now with about 50% grey. I use a medium or dark ash blond permanent color with 20 toner and some purple blue toner drops in it to color my own hair. I usually love the medium brown color til about week 3 when the orangey color comes out especially on my ends. I am a True Summer and the golden color washes me out. I understand that the ashier I go, the darker it will be, but I don't want too dark because it looks harsh on my aging face. Should I switch to a non-permanent color? Any other suggestions for getting and maintaining a medium ashy brown with low brass and also grey coverage? Thank you for your fun and informative channel and for taking time to reply! Obviously I am self-and-youtube-taught on hair color and have much to learn!
That’s a tricky one for me to help with remotely. Yes, a Demi would mean less warmth would be “exposed” but it might not cover at all… Thanks for the kind words.
Hi thanks for a great video. I use colour touch for toning mostly. But get stuck on the numbering system, for example if hair is bleached and its uneven some bits yellow (banana colour) and some darker yellow (slight orange) how do I get it even with a toner? And if Im using 9/86 for example, what ratio of tone is 8 or 6? Is it an equal 1/3rd? Get so mixed up on the tones of colours. Also have you done any videos on how to get rid of banding on full head colours dark and light haired, I always seem to get this when people go in the sun etc. Bit of a long comment but thanks for these videos, very helpfull. Im a mobile hairdresser also so struggle with being cost effective. As most videos always mix 2 or 3 colours together and its just to costly for me.
Hi there, thank you, glad you found it helpful. So I wouldn’t overthink the tonal percentage - just remember that the first number (after the /) is the primary tone, the next secondary. You always need to formulate in the deepest part of lift to “cancel” out the tone effectively. There is an entire playlist of toning videos here on my channel and also one titled “hair colour theory”, that might be helpful.
I feel toning highlights with shades EQ, also, even tho slight, alters my base/natural pieces. Do you agree Craig? I’m a level 7 dirty blonde always struggling with orangey tones. I feel like if I just want a few highlights, I should try a Hi-Lift. (To avoid putting toner all over.).
No, it really doesn’t shift a base, as long as you’re using Processing Solution and developing at room temp..? I never use high-lift, it just doesn’t do it for me…and if you’re used to the translucency of bleach, neither will you be. How about toning with a direct dye…?
Hi Craig. I’ve always been a fan of shades eq but recently I don’t know if the formula has changed but shades isn’t shading 😂. It’s washing out very very quickly. I’ve seen other saying this also. I wondered if you had noticed this?
@@theworldofcraig Ok, thank you for your reply😊 so what would you suggest to get a level 9 highlights? I am a level 7 dark blonde with some level 8 highlights. Thank youu!
Hello! I’m coming to the UK soon and was wondering if you’re accepting new clients. Would love to get my hair coloured by you as the roots were accidentally dyed darker :)
I have a level 9 bleached hair base (some parts level 10) and was about to use permanent hair color milktea ash (8.17), would that have a great result or would it damage my hair really badly or look not as great? 😅 If so, do you have any advice on what alternative i could do to have milktea ash color of hair? Badly need advice if that's alright... 🥺
It’s really hard for me to say what would work for you remotely - but I wouldn’t use a permanent colour to tone any pre-lightened hair, there’s just too much “energy”.
Hi craig,,,i loved ur demonstration… what if here in my country we have no demi’s or semi permanent dyes,,and am left with only permanent hair dye option to tone my hair,,,which is pretty much of orangy yellow roots,,,what can i do..also i feel that my hair alkaline has changed by aging and it never reaches level 9.5 or 10..can u help me out please 🙏
Hi Sam, thank you, so glad you enjoyed it. Hmmm, perhaps online…? I’d be flabbergasted if there were no demi’s at all, most brands have at least one. You could mix a permanent with 5volume but I wouldn’t advise it if you have any natural at all - it might lift it slightly. There’s an entire playlist on how to pick a formula here on my channel. Thanks for watching 👨🏼🙏🏻🩵
I have a question for you, if you can help. I had a balayage done. My base is black and the bottom part is ginger caramel colour. I need to cover some white hair and I want to give it more shine I feel like it doesn’t have at all enough shine could I do a dye??? Instead of a toner
I have been searching for days about covering gray hair witv demi permanent. A lot of hair dressers talking about the cons on social media yet my hair dresser is still on another planet 🙃 . So I decided to do it my self. Can you recommend a formula for hair level 6 (ashy) .. i have highlighted ends and I will not touch them. The problem is with brands as well... i have seen a ton of reviews but can't decide which brand. I'm torn btween the ion shine ( 14$c) and the new loreal dia (15$ in canada). Please help me😢 Of course i know that i need a lower volume as well (possibly 10) I was thinking using 7nwith some less amount of 7.1 or 8.1 ( I'm 60% gray in some areas and way less in the back) Most reviews says that color is darker in reality than advertised
I use mainly demi permanent on grey hair, it gives such a great result, without having to use so much “energy” to do it. I’m afraid I can’t give out specific formulas remotely - it’s impossible without seeing someone in person and what you call “ashy” isn’t what I think is ashy…there’s just way to much to it. I use Color Touch when I’m working on grey hair.
@@theworldofcraig I can understand. Anyways I wish you make a video about that, more info wouldn't hurt lol. How much gray coverage you get from color touch?
There are already many videos that mention using demi permanent to blend/cover grey here on my channel. Color Touch has 2 developers, the intense one pretty much covers all grey….I’m generalising but it’s great.
Hi thank u for the video. Should I just use Demi permanent color in the level I want my color to be. My hair is at level 7/8 but just bleached so should I use 7/8 color?
Hi there, you’re most welcome, thanks for watching. I do have an entire playlist on toning here on my channel - there are many factors that go into choosing a formula level, so it’s hard for me to help specifically remotely.
2 alkaline chemical processes back to back sounds like a recipe for burns and damaged cuticle layers. I get why it's done since permanent color can help give more lift and or deposit more pigment, but yikes. Makes me think of all the videos of people using t18 right after multiple bleachings. Ouch.
Hi all, thanks for watching! What’s your BIGGEST take away from this week’s video…? It would be great to have your thoughts, thank you. 👨🏼🙏🏻🩵
Loved the analogies used as from a regular Jane I do not come from a hair professional background. Very easily understood and the differences of the types of colour dyes available and how they are deposited in the hair shaft

Most reviews says that color is darker in reality than advertised
I use mainly demi permanent on grey hair, it gives such a great result, without having to use so much “energy” to do it.
I’m afraid I can’t give out specific formulas remotely - it’s impossible without seeing someone in person and what you call “ashy” isn’t what I think is ashy…there’s just way to much to it.
I use Color Touch when I’m working on grey hair.
@@theworldofcraig I can understand. Anyways I wish you make a video about that, more info wouldn't hurt lol. How much gray coverage you get from color touch?
There are already many videos that mention using demi permanent to blend/cover grey here on my channel.
Color Touch has 2 developers, the intense one pretty much covers all grey….I’m generalising but it’s great.

Noted. Thanks for watching.
Hi thank u for the video. Should I just use Demi permanent color in the level I want my color to be. My hair is at level 7/8 but just bleached so should I use 7/8 color?
Hi there, you’re most welcome, thanks for watching.
I do have an entire playlist on toning here on my channel - there are many factors that go into choosing a formula level, so it’s hard for me to help specifically remotely.
What if your not lifting your just coloring to blond with gray roots
If you’re covering grey that’s a different process.
2 alkaline chemical processes back to back sounds like a recipe for burns and damaged cuticle layers. I get why it's done since permanent color can help give more lift and or deposit more pigment, but yikes. Makes me think of all the videos of people using t18 right after multiple bleachings. Ouch.
I’m with you on that one, having watched a few humans using t18 after those 2 rounds…ouch! Thanks for watching. 👨🏼🙏🏻🩵
