TONING your hair at home | STEP by STEP how to get rid of BRASSINESS in Highlights

Maren makes it… straightforward to use toner at home.

This week we are going to talk about TONER in hair dye and hair color. This is the main way I get rid of brassiness in highlighted hair & blonde hair. I’ve tried purple shampoo (   • Does purple shampoo work on highlight...  ), but toner is wayyy more effective.
I usually do this immediately following bleaching my hair & creating highlights in my hair which I’ve made a separate video on(   • Highlighting my own DARK BROWN hair a...  ). Depending on your starting color and desired results, you may or may not want to do this step before you follow the advice in this video.

We are going to talk about how both semi and semi permanent dyes can be used to tone hair. I’m going to tell you what toner CAN do and what it CAN’T… because as great as I think semi permanent dye is, there are limitations. Whether you’re blonde or brunette to start though, there are lots of looks you can create DIYing your hair color.

Then I’ll take you through a step-by-step tutorial of how to actually apply Demi permanent hair color from mixing up your products to applying it to hair to rinsing it out properly… I got you covered.

This is something you can do at home for all my people that on a budget out there or trying to save money on their hair and beauty routines. That is the reason I have continued to do this myself at home even post-restrictions and lockdowns. You can do this between salon visits to tie you over or to replace them altogether.

Let me know in the comments down below if you’ve ever DIYed your hair dye and how it came out.

Thanks so much for watching !
