Past a few months I’ve been experimenting with a few toners. In the past I’ve tried a several brands, especially Clariol Professional products. I always have liked their Creme Toners, but lately, I’ve been enraptured with Wella Color Charm Toners. Every time I use one of their toners, they always make my hair and scalp feel good without a bit of sting like with most permanent colors. Permanent colors tend to sting freshly lightened or highlighted hair because of higher content of peroxide and ammonia, but Wella Color Charm Toners don’t really sting my scalp and the color always turns out exactly what the swatch shows and the nice fact they’re considered medium hazard regarding health well being. I’ve been gradually going blonder, and I wanted something that isn’t quite platinum blonde (too bright for me) yet pale enough. Right now I’m in love with Wella Color Charm T10, known as Ivory Lady. It’s a pure, lovely soft pale blonde that’s not too yellowish or beige-y. It does look like a polished ivory. I’m totally enthralled with the results. I’ve used this toner a few times and the color has come out successfully. It looks great with my summer tan. However, at first, it may look a little dark/dull but will go away in a few shampoos, and then the color will turn out and look like a pure pale blonde. I’m totally loyal to Wella toners now, and I thought about trying Wella toner labeled T18 or known as ‘White Lady’, but I think it’s a little too white for me. I’m not ready to be a white blonde. But it might be next on my list to try.

Surgi Invisi-Bleach Hair Bleaching Cream for Face & Arms – Gentle Formula 1.5 Oz,

I read some good reviews on this product. To have that sun kissed look, it’s recommended to use a bronzing powder to put on the face and body without resorting to harmful rays of the sun or use a self-tanner. Using a self-tanner is another story. Here you will learn why it is useful to use the bronzing powder and this product is a good one because they have two choices of shades: Caribbean and Riviera. Caribbean is lighter and looks more goldish than Riviera, which is a little darker. If you’re light skinned, go with Caribbean. If you’re darker skinned, go with Riviera. Place the brush on your nose, cheeks, and brow for that extra glow of the sun.

You can purchase it via Amazon Sephora Brand Bronzer Powder SPF 15.

Going brunette from blonde, known as a tintback in salon circles, is not as easy as you think. It takes some dedication just like someone going blonde from brunette. Since brunette is all the rage right now, which is a good thing for many, because being a brunette means your hair will thank you for less harsh chemicals opposed to bleaching/lightening one’s hair. This article explains very well about performing a tintback from blonde to brunette. Visit The Haircolor Expert blog for detailed description of a tintback.

This article recommends a filler color in prior to darkening your light hair, whether it’s a natural blonde or bleached blonde, because it will prevent grey or green tinge as well as purple or other unwanted tones that come with brown or black dyeing. Most permanent dyes have strong bases that counteract with current tones in the hair. Most permanent hair color dyes are designed for natural or virgin hair rather than colored or tinted hair. A filler color can be just that — a filler color bottle that you can purchase at a local beauty supply store or it could be either one, semi- or demi-permanent color, that will do the trick of darkening your hair in prior to using a brown or black permanent hair color dye. Make sure it’s about 2 levels lighter than your desired level of color. As the article explained, to go brunette you must have warmer tones in your hair like orange and red. The orange and red will make the brunette look more natural and less ashy, dull, or discolored when dyeing over blond hair. Gold is good if you’re only going a darker blonde. The good filler color bottles to get from Sally or any other beauty supply store are Professional Protein Filler by Colorful Products (Warm Brown or Red) or Colorful Neutral Protein Filler. They will do the trick and fill in the porosity in your hair.
