Thank you for this video. I have been bleaching and coloring my hair myself for about a year now and your video was super easy to follow and helped me decide on the Redkin EQ shades/toners. I have found my new happy place :) Once you get over your fears of bleach and color, it's not so hard. The Redkin products, by far, are the best on the market. I finally got rid of the red/yellow because of this video. Thank you for helping those of us that simply can't afford the salon anymore. Of course, it would be my preferred choice but current circumstances are what they are. Much appreciated.

I really loved this! I'm not a stylist, I am a nail tech but worked in a small full service salon for years and have a huge interest in hair so I always paid attention. I call myself a kitchen-tician :) Anyway, i love doing colour, but am always scared of toner because of a huge accident back when I was just learning about self colouring etc. I looked like queen Elizabeth and I was 27! LOL Anyhow, you did a great job explaining without being too technical that those who don't know anything about colour wouldn't understand, but also without being too layman... or talking down. Loved this and I am totally a new subbie now. You mentioned talking about other toners you use for reds and such... yes please!!! I will be waiting very excitedly! You were awesome girl! Amanda!

Hi Daniella. Love your videos! Thank you for making them so easy to understand. ! I just wanted to know if when mixing two different colors does that mean we also double the amount of the processing solution? I'm gonna try the 9V, 9NB ( 1 oz each) so how much processing solution do i use? 1oz? or 2 oz? Hope to hear from you soon! Thanks!

Loved your video! Great explanation. How would you mix and apply 9n and 9v for orange / brassy after balayage? Thanks so much!
Yes a list! 🙌
You are the BEST
I love your videos!! I mistakenly used toner (wella with 20v) all over my hair and it brightened my highlights perfectly BUT it pulled my natural 6/7 root almost orange 😢. I was thinking of using shades eq to do a root shadow or balayage to get my roots back to their natural state. Seeing none of your highlights visible above though makes me nervous though (you look amazing I’m just looking for more of a balayage). Also you saying blonde can turn green terrifies me too lol I got my hands on 6N, 9N, 9T, clear, and processing solution. Would it work to paint the 6N/ clear in my roots, and then paint 9N/9T in the middle, and 9T/ clear to the ends and front pieces. Would this blend?

Your videos are so informative! Thank you for that! When you tone, do you usually do it on wet or dry hair?
@DaniellaBenita
6 жыл бұрын
Carroll K you're so welcome!!! And it depends if I want the color to really set in rough dry someone but be very precise about the placement of the color because once the color touches dry hair it sticks! If I put toner on wet hair I'm going to get a much more minimal result. So I'll mostly towel dry all of the water from their hair then I'll take the toner and put it all over. I like to brush it through too just to make sure you get it completely saturated! ❤️
Thank you this was very helpful.
Thank you. I really like the video! The part of wassing the toner out without bleeding is not very clear to me. you wash out the lighter ends, and put a conditioner on it, and the you wash out the rest?? thank you ☺
very insightful and informative! Great teaching

Hey! I love the video and your explanation is so easy and understandable. I was just wondering since I’m about to tone my hair and I’m mixing some colors I was about to mix the crystal clear in it so it can give shine and make the color look just better. I didn’t know that it actually lightens up the color which I don’t really want. Do you think I can still add it and will not make it that much lighter or I can use it as a stand alone treatment with the processing solution after I do the toning?
You are so pretty!!

Hi!! BEST video out there! Thank you!! Question - I have blonde highlights in my brunette (level 5) hair, maybe about a level 8 in the front and a level 7 in the back. Theyre turning orange and yellow and I want them a bit more blended. Would 7p and 8gb work well together? Thank you!

This video popped up when I was searching, so a little late lol. Your videos are so helpful! What formula would you use if there is still too much orange after lifting from Level 3 to 8/9 (using Schwarzkopf Blond me). Or would you suggest another round of bleaching first before toning?

I would wait at least 3 months so most of the color gets rinsed out. It depends on hair dark your hair is but I would suggest doing highlights if you want your hair to lift enough. I love redken flash lift for lightener and I would definitely use some type of bond builder so your hair doesn't become damaged while it's lifting. I really like redken Ph bonder or if you want to spend a little more money olaplex is the best and they sell a travel pack that isn't too expensive! If you want to send me pictures of your hair color currently and also the look you are trying to get too ill help you formulate! Direct message me on my instagram! @DaniellaBenita
I love for your explain very well thank you so much and God bless you❤️🥰💕👍👏👏
When adding the clear for the toner, do you do a 1:1 equal ratio as well as processing solution? So say: 1 oz 9v, 1 oz processing solution, and 1 oz clear? Or would that dilute it too much? Love your videos 😊
