I would love to see you actually doing hair on clients! I love watching other stylists doing those videos. I feel like those kinds are literally the best education. This video was great tho btw
You are a true gift to the hair universe. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Acne or no acne you are radiant!!! 🌞
Understanding basic theory of how toners work: Look at a color wheel. You will notice these colors across from each other:
Purple across from Yellow (blonde undertone)..... Green across from Red (brunette undertone).... Blue across from Orange (self-explanatory)..... Those colors cancel each other out.
**This comment needs more ‘likes’! It’s basic color theory that doesn’t change whether your art is on a canvas, a monitor, or on your hair - it’s All Art. Keeping it simple is key. Everything’s easy when you know how, ie: why you’re doing What you’re doing. By knowing what you’re starting with and knowing what you want to end up with will tell you how to get there. 🌹💙⚡️
Love your videos! This was super helpful.
I have an issue that I never see much info on. I have hair that is super grey/white at the from but dark at the back (about a level 6) . My hair is currently bleached to level 9/10 (toned with a champagne/pearl toner). My hair feels super damaged these days so how do I transition to something less damaging. What kind of colour should I go if I’m kind of a zebra? 💕 white at front/ dark at the back.
Would love to see a video about us greying folks xxx
Thanks for sharing your wisdom and beauty. Stay safe and healthy 💕💕💕
Hey Elle, would you do a video series sometime...specifically on highlighted/bleached curly hair? toning...best cuts/styles...products for styling/protecting/washing/reviving...recommended combs/brushes/styling tools?
Thank you so much for the purple highlighter metaphor. That is so helpful for my brain to finally just accept that I can't shortcut my way to ash just by plopping it on and hoping really hard.
this is so helpful! love how you explained everything, brings me back to my color theory class in design school
I know this video was 3 years ago but I just have to say thank you so much! I never realized I should’ve been coloring my new growth 50 percent grey roots with a different dye than the rest of my hair! My mind is officially blown! Now I know why it never turns out quite right 🤦🏻♀️
This is hands-down your most helpful video!!!! Thank you so so much !
This was great! Thanks for clarifying level 6 hair to go ashier!
I'm seeing my hairdresser in two months but I have completely no idea what I want this time 😂
Maybe some inspirations for hairstyles in 2021? Please do that ❤️
2020 was the year of DIY bangs. I wonder what this year will bring 🤣
@@hey956 i know! I did curtain bangs on myself too 😂
@@xTriinuux bahaha me too 🤦🏼♀️😂
I did a "5 tips to improve your hair in 2021" kind of goes over some ideas. But maybe a hair trends video for 2021 is necessary!
@@Ellebangs yes!
Wow 🤩 your explanation on how colour works using the paper and hi-lighter example just made Everything click! Lol That makes SO much sense!!!
You’re the best Sylvia! Thank you for keeping on with your channel especially since we’re all trying to educate ourselves on how to do our own and our kids and hubbies hair lately lol
Not only that, but I jumped on the covid crazy hair wagon and feeling full of regrets sometimes lol
Thx for helping me figure out how to work with what I got!!
Ps. I’d love to see a video from you on temp colours and how to manage and upkeep, changing colours or removing then how to put a normal hair colour back on too! ;) hehe
This is a fantastic explanation! You always explain things in ways that truly make sense. You are so awesome! Thank you for all your time and sharing your wisdom!
Love all your suggestions and guidance! Thank you!
This is very helpful! Thank you!
Thank you for touching in on the gray 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wow! That was extremely helpful! Thank you for this video! It explains so much about what I’m doing wrong and how to fix it.
😂🙃😘
Ahhh thank you .
I'm fall into the second category.
We lifted my colour which was previously very dark, almost black we coloured it dark brown and now I have reddish brown color. Not happy 😔
Thank you for this explanation! When my roots come in, I have 25% white hairs mixed with my natural tone which is 6 ashy/neutral brunette and I use chromatics 7n + 7 ash on the roots then I tone zones 2 and 3 with some pretty ashy Shades EQ...but i haven't been able to achieve the ashy tone I want and now, finally, I understand why! Unfortunately, I don't want to have to use bleach, so I will have to figure out what I want to do now.
I always learn so much everytime I watch your videos,Silvia! I wish I would of seen your links here before I bought all my products because I just bleached my burgundy red ombre hair... I only bleached it once but I used colour off first. I used Schwarzkopf BlondMe (I recommend anyone reading this purchase Schwarzkopf BlondMe it's the best & there's a link in the description of this video for everything pretty much I used) after that & then because I still had a little red left I used Schwarzkopf highlift 12-11 & I did a root melt with dark ash blonde. It turned out really good I didn't even need to tone it & my hair looked healthier than before I started surprisingly. I did add Olaplex to both the colour off & the blondeme bleach & I used 20 volume and when I mixed the volume because my hair was already so light from the colour off instead of adding 2 parts of volume I added 2 and a half with the olaplex. But my hair was already an 8 and even a 10 in some spots cause I had an ombre with light ends. I was focusing on the stubborn red at the top which I was kind of worried might not come out cause my hair is so porous. I left everything in a long time to process & used a hair dryer bonnet that I got on Amazon. I used to always go to the salon but I suffered a spinal cord injury on my neck & I have alot of spine issues along with Lupus. So it's really hard for me to sit in a chair for hours let alone have a mask on the whole time. I'd rather do it myself & take my time at home it's so much easier plus I feel like my hair gets less damaged cause I can really baby my hair when I'm doing it. BTW Silvia great video as usual and thank you for sharing Bondiboost on Instagram. I ordered the blonde baby trio & Repair Repair set. Great products! ❤️
Do you have a video how to self cut curtain bangs?
Be Em... she recently did a video of cutting curtain bangs.
I use 4nn and 5nn on roots. Then I use a 5n toner after that. Awesome shine
So basically, could it also be that the reason why my purple shampoo doesn't seem work is because I'm a "warm" level 6 at bas?e.. So the way for me to get to an ashy tone is to bleach more first?
Have you tried blue shampoo instead of purple?
I have tried blue and violet and it still pulls purply - dont like it and i literally leave it on for no more than a minute or so
At a level 6 there is a lot of warmth orange/yellow lift your hair lighter to eliminate the warmth and tone it down to the cooler color you are seeking....
Yep you’re not light enough, but also try a blue based shampoo and/or toner instead
I’m excited for your transformation!!
Yay!! Cant wait for a change and to share it with you
I always learn something from your videos, thank you. I seem to be in two of your situations mentioned, covering gray and wanting to be a 6/7 ashy color. I am naturally a level 6/7 and am about 50% gray. Every color I have used (home or salon) always looks orangey. After watching this, I am thinking that I should bleach my roots and then tone down. What should I use as a toner?
Great video, Sylvia!! Thank you for sharing with us!! 💖
Thank you for posting this! Very helpful!
Wow this answered so much for me, thank you!!
Beautifully explained.
Great video. Good information. So excited to you your new hair! You're so pretty.,
I just want to say thank you. Your videos have been SOOOOO helpful. I was just wondering how you lighten from a 6 to an 8.
@@eyeamgroot4372 thank you so much!!!! I have been trying to be more self-sufficient with this stuff, and this really helps. Thank you!!!!
You explain things so well. Thank you!
thanks beautiful!!
Love your videos!!!!!
Ohmygosh I can't wait to see you!!!!
Another great video! Always so informative.The next two videos sound awesome too! I can’t wait 🥳 Have you tried the new acidic bonding concentrate line from Redken yet? I got all three and love it! I would like to hear what you think about it, and if it really heals the hair over time. Oh, I’m also wondering .. are you doing anyone’s hair now a days, or just the virtual consultations?
Such an informative video! Thank you!!
I love your hair! I wish I could get by hair done by you! Amazing! Love🖤
Hi Elle thank you for all your tips... this is a tip thats helped me with maskne try spraying your mask with rubbing alchohol let dry and voila hope it helps I carry spray bottle with me to work
I cured my mask acne but ceasing the use of foundation. I only use a tiny bit in my nose, concealing my eye area and then I add blush, eye makeup and so on. Best of luck if you decide to try this.
You ma’am are amazing! Live that you share so much functional hair knowledge!
Thank you. Well explained. Good woman! 👍😘
Is there brown toner???
Very helpful! Thank you!☺️
Can you recommend a good toner for level 7 hair color? I need to add shine and cancel brassy tones
It depends on what type of brass you have just go directly across on the color wheel. But any demi color will offer shine
Love this!!!!
Hi Silvia, I'm by no means a professional, just curious :) isn't there any option to counteract those warm tones with bluish/green toner? or this works just on already coloured hair? thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for all the amazing help! I have the greys. You said to tone the ends of my hair that are already color treated. What kind of toner do you like for that and what level developer? And also I read to apply toner on damp
Hair, but noticed you did dry hair. I trust you! Do you have a preference? Thanks!! Congratulations on the new baby!
Hi Silvia, love your channel! It's really informing.
Can you do some more videos on men's colour please.
I'm aging and my hair is healthy but I just want to cover the greys.
I'm a base level 6 so I bought Wella 6NN and 6NA to mix with 20 Vol developer.
Followed the instructions and it came out a dark brown with warm orange tones.
Can anyone help a poor Scots man soul and suggest how to get rid of these tones. I just wait plain boring light/medium brown hair
Do I need to buy a Toner and what colour? It's all so confusing.
HELP ANYONE!!
Still glad I didn't buy buy Men's boxed dye.
Do you have any videos on dark brown hair issues, like gray, dry ends+ oily roots, lifeless hair?
I feel so completely robbed by my hair colorist. I went in to bleach my hair so that I could dye it a fun color on top. I expected that it would take at least two sessions. I got recommendations for this salon, so I went there. She doubled bleached my dyed black hair to get it light enough. I blindly trusted her. I came out of there with new bangs that I didn't want because there was breakage from the bleach. I still continuously see little hairs, which means that it's still breaking 6 weeks later. Instead of doing my research properly, I paid someone hundreds of dollars to be the expert so that I didn't have to do too much research. I figured she knew what she was doing. I thought that I would have to come in more than once, but I was like, she's the expert... I'm beyond disappointed because I've been wanting a fun color in my hair for YEARS. And I'm out almost $500 plus damage to my hair, plus breakage and new baby bangs. I wish I had seen this video ahead of time and insisted on multiple visits. Or gone do a different colorist completely.
I wished so much you could be the one to color/fix my hair . There isn’t a hairdresser around me that knows how to help me with my hair . Ugh 🤦🏼♀️ so frustrating ! I feel it would be rude to show them this video right ?!? Lol 😂
Please come to Vermont ! You can stay at the hotel I work . I’m the executive housekeeper there 😊😉
Maybe it is you and not them?
No , years ago I had one awesome hairdresser that always did what I wanted but , she moved away . I live in a small town in Vermont and so there are not that many hairdressers around here . It’s not like a city .
thanks love your videos very helpful
Very informative thank you
Great and informative !! How can I safely brighten/lighten the level of my previously lightened blonde mids and ends ( I have a sombre ) Thanks Beautiful lady
Love your content, Thank you
Thank you, this is very helpful, so what you’re saying, with the second scenario, you go in with a Lightner & 20 volume to lighten the scalp area( gray)and then go back in with a warm toner that would match the mid shaft and the rest of the hair?
you look lovely, this makeup is very flattering on you :)
Love this!!!!
Have you ever used color oops on red brown hair? I had platinum blonde highlights against my natural ash blonde about a 6 or 7 level. I am now at about a 5 or 6 brown with copper red tones and want to go back to before.
Can I use high lift product to achieve the same on my bleached level 7 orange hair to ashy tone ? such as igora royal 9-1 ash. I’m hoping using one step to lift and tone simultaneously. Thank you- Awesome video as always!
Love your nails!!! Would love to know what your do or get 🥰
What kind of toners do you recommend that are less damaging?
What about this scenario?... I am HALF asian/HALF caucasion. My natural color is basically a soft medium'ish to dark slightly ash brown (not BLACK). i'd say maybe a shade or 2 lighter than black. I am 44 and starting to get greys. So been trying to get that taken care of. But ughhhh,,, Everytime I get my hair colored to try and stay as close to my natural color,,, it ends up JET BLACK. So frustrating. Wether i've gotten it done at the salon or done it myself... ALWAYS ENDS UP BEING VIBRANT JET BLACK. This last time i went to the salon to get my style changed (had an old grown out balayage, and grown out too long. I was way over due.) they did a cute cut, color corrected all of the remaining light pieces and then went over it with a 5 or 6 BP i think it was (i preferred the NA used prior though). Still turned out JET BLack. Im sad.... LOL Although after time and washing it does end up pretty close to my natural. but the first few months its like wheeeeewwww chilllleeeee.
At 4:03 you talk about using a toner to “stain” the hair. My question then is, would I use a volume 10, 20 or no developer with the toner? That part wasn’t clear to me. Thank you.
What colour do you use to lowlight your own hair it’s lovely
What about if you have bleached your hair very bright but the ends are not quite as bright as the midsection. I want to brighten my ends without doing much damage. Also any tips for touching up roots with bleach!
Love ur hair color 💜
Question, how long do you let the toner process before applying to your hair?
I bleached my hair two months ago and I have yellow orange hair and my roots are dark. Can I use a permanent color like a Golden extra light with 30 volume developer to cancel the orange parts? Would it work ?
Love your hair so beautiful
Your hair is so pretty. :)
شكرا كثير على نصائح
Im brunette but my roots are bleached to a level 5 and they look very brassy, would an ashy toner make it look more natural and dark blonde?
Thank you so much that helped a lot. It was really a good explanation
My root color is level 5 with a little bit of an ashy undertone and I get a little bit of grey hairs here and there so I usually use 5.1 hair dye box to cover it and from what I understood from you that is wrong and I should be changing to Neutral?! So 5N?
Yes get the neutral shade to do your roots..I was doing the same but in 5G for my warm tones and adding the developer for better grey coverage.
I working in dubai we mostly use other brands not Redken color so when toners uses like p,G I found difficult
Can you recommend developers that don’t smell bad. I know most do but one that smells the least. With having to dye my hair at home I don’t want a lingering smell around too much because of my little one
I wish she said which developer she would have recommended for that level 5
So if i used permanent color level 8 on level 6 hair, then used a toner of level six ash it would work to cover the brassines
I love your video. I will lovet to get your opinion 🙏
Let say I'm an 5 redish and want to get 6 ash what color should i use?
sei bravissima...sarebbe bello avere i sottotitoli in Italiano
I've been doing hair for awhile, never can stop learning, love your videos I am lisenced, so color is not my specialty but im starting to rock it like everything else. I do have a question about being ash. so not wanting to go lighter, would I need to go two levels darker or just one?
Thanks a lot 🙏
What would be the color to cover grey hair when you have level 2 hair or level 3 hair ??
Hi how do you avoid green tones when you apply ash onto stripped yellow orange hair please
Can you do toner with a #10 developer (for less damage)
So how do you lift your hair to 2 lift to get an ash color to blend with gray hair. Thanks
Hey Silvia! Was wondering your opinion about using the new Redken acid shampoo and treatments while having extensions in? Will it be safe for them?
Thank you.
But what if I got naturally 2-3 and I got from a hairdresser teo month ago with a 1 black. And I want to keep as dark as possible almost blue black but I gto rute with has gray. So I bout box colour with number 1n and it said its cover gray, but it didn't. And even did lightly lighted up my hair.
Please please halo me to have a beautiful black hair with gray 😒
My daughter tried to lighten my hair. First she used blue bleach from Sally’s beauty supply. Turned my hair like a redhead orange! So then we used the color charm 9A light Ash. My hair turned more orange.
I found your TH-cam channel and you suggested going one color darker. So I purchased 8A/740.5 light ash blond. Using 20 volume. Well the top of my hair still has orange a lighter orange color. The lower part is darker but has a light orange.
What would you suggest?
What were you before the first bleach? Level 6 or darker you'd need to bleach a 2nd time like she said in this video. Dark hair goes orange first before blonde while trying to lift. It's just the in between/ can't get all the color out at once. Once you get it light enough then use toner to cancel the brassy color.
@@withmandylynn6122 what is I tried again? Do you think it would damage my hair?
Orange lives at a level 6 or 7. Using a level 8 or 9 toner will do nothing on that orange that level is not dark enough to deposit anything either use a level 6 or 7 ash toner on that orange or relighted to a pale yellow color to get out of the orange tones....
I'm rapt to find you, thanks for your explanation! Is hair colour stripping any sort of option? I'm trying to get rid of dark brown hair colouring to get closer to my now fairly grey hair and my hair is quite fragile and bleach may not be an option. Thanks so much for your videos!
Letting hair go grey. Previously dyed blonde. Was wondering is there any non bleach product to tone demarcation line please
What do you mean by applying a toner to the rest, what kind of toner is it
If your refreshing the color (Demi-permanent) is ammonia free and provides a shine and tones to enhance gold,ash,reds or brunettes
Thank you for this video..to touch up my roots with a box color..it has 2 ozs of color and 2 ozs of developer how much of the 20 developer do I add? Thank you for pointing out about getting the neutral shade...I hope my roots look better and blends with the rest of my hair.
Is it possible to cover grays with a demi or semi-permanent color so they look like highlights?
I am a natural brown and my hairdresser has gotten me to a silver ash with black roots. However we keep getting a rusty color between the silver and the black. How can we get rid of the rusty line of color between the two colors? My hairdresser says there is nothing we can do about the rusty part between the two.
My hairdresser dyes my roots level 5 with 20 vol 3 times a year. She had done the full head level 5/0 a year ago but i prefered it as it faded and looked lighter than my roots. I said this too her but i said i think it needs a refresh as its looking a bit red. She had used perm 5/0 on my roots for 20mins the perm 5/0 on my mid length ends for another 20 mins. Now my ends look black. Next year when i need it re doing what should i ask for?
Love your videos. My base is getting too dark from touching up the roots at Crown and back of neck. It looks black even though i use chromasilk 6n. Can i lighten the base before i highlight?
Wow- I've learned so much watching your videos over and over- I'm *almost* ready to take on my previously professionally highlighted/lowlighted hair (last done in July) which now has my box dyed (now brass/orange-ish) long roots and gray/level 6 fresh 3/4" roots. A lot going on! but I I want to try to balayage with natural 6 root blend/gray cover and shadow. I've watched so many of your videos and will try using esalon root permanent color and their lightening kit. If doing my own, which brand permanent color and toner should I use that's available to at-home quarantined armature styliststs?
My natural hair color is number 5 i think
I had light ends but now they are orange and i want them to go back to brown like my roots
But in cool colors, how can i do that please ?
