Your formula is what a lot of us stylists use along with the same one in level 10 for brighter but only a few drops of GI to avoid over toning . If you really want an icy long lasting one that is very similar- Goldwell colorance demi in 10BS with a touch of 10V will get you very icy. If you like that baby blonde try shades EQ 10VG “baby” it’s perfect for that color and a capful of 10/9GI
Great to know. Thanks so much for the tips! :)
Have you tried 9RB ?? With any of them ?
Where is a good place to get the Goldwell? Thanks! I’ve seen their icy but can’t find them.
Your hair looks professionally done ! Great job !
Thank you so much! 😊
Thank you for sharing! I've been doing a ton of research and also love that combo! I learned that GI is great for adding just a little warmth, which adds a nice brightness to blondes. I'm planning on trying the 10's in these, but I may throw some level 9 depending on what I need to tone/ correct and what's available. I hope more people doing their own hair learn about these toners because they're so gentle on your hair.
Love the 9gi reflect with 9p and 9v Great job love this so much new subscriber
Awesome, thank you!!! 😊
This was sooo helpful! Just what I needed, thank you!!
I'm so glad! Thank you!! 😀
You have the perfect blonde that I want! Based on this video I will be buying the Shades EQ 9V, 9P, 9GI, Clear, and processing cream. Thank you! This is just what I've been looking for.
Thank you so much!! Glad it helped :)
Don’t forget the Crystal clear
I’m totally with you, I love the salons technique for bleaching the weaving highlights etc, they do my roots great but as someone that like me to be nice and bright blonde when they go to tone they always tone my hair too muddy it’s frustrating.
Its toning time for me, so I'm back watching this video again @Allison! lol
Awesome! Another toning video coming soon!
Love your colour. Thanks
Thank you!
Beautiful hair!
Thank you!
Appreciate the information ℹ️
No problem!
Great explanation!! Thank U!!
Thank you!! 😊
I always use 9p and 9v on my 613 extensions from bellami and also my hair! Love it!
Awesome! I always wondered how it would take on extensions.
@@athomewithallison9524 it worked just fine! I didn't notice any issues with it!
You are gorgeous! I ❤your hair and all the thought you put into this video! Thank you for making this for everyone to learn. Target sells a product for under $10 the brand is Hask and it is Argan oil - a small drop lightly applied - very little so it doesn't get greasy or oily - to the ends and to the part of your hair in the video you mention is dry or has static electricity (what you call "regrowth flyaways" - tiniest amount - will smooth that out so it lays flat and smooth. Just wanted to help you w/ advice since you were kind to help everyone, you may already know that though. XOXO
What a sweet comment! Thank you!
Great video thank you
Thank you! 🙂
Thank you for this
No problem 😊
I'm so glad I found this video!!! please tell me which toner would be great for yellow hair with a little orange, I think it is between ton 8 to 9 after bleaching. I really want to have a shade like yours or a champagne color.
Thank you so much! If you like my color try the same formula, but leave out the clear. If you think you lean more toward level 8, try swapping 9gi and 9v for 8gi and 8v. If you want to achieve champagne blonde try 9p, 9nb and 9n or 8n. Hope this helps! 😀
Hey Allison thank you sooo much for sharing with us - I have your same problems of mis-communication with the hair stylist and ending up as I don't want my hair to be. Did you try the 10 yet? I have a bunch of them and they are really good but don't know the quantities so much yet - also in your video how much is your "spoon" about :)
I have not tried the 10s yet! Maybe one day lol. As far as my spoons, it's usually a tablespoon. But it all depends on how much hair you have that determines how much you need. :)
Thanks for the video 😊!
Do you think a 9/10 VG
Will knock out the yellow level ten bleached head? Or maybe buy the 9 V since it’s a staple as well🤔?
I’m looking for a bright/ iridescent/ golden look , avoiding much ash. 45 and chopping hair to a bixie cut🤭😂
Thinking bright and edgy.
No shadow root.
Considering
9/10 VG or 9VRo ( it’s soo pretty 😍)
9P
9N
9GG
Or
9 V
9P
9G 🙃
I appreciate any advice 🙏🏻👍🏻
Thanks!
I don't know too much about 9 and 10 VG. It's on my list to try at some point! I think that either of those combos you mentioned will do the trick for what you are looking to achieve!
@@athomewithallison9524 Right On
Thanks for Getting back to me .
Really Cool if you!☮️
Hey I wanted to ask if I use your formula the next time around. If my hair is long will this be the same amount I should measure out or should I do more like 1 :1?
The ratio of toner and processing solution should always be 1:1. But if your hair is longer you will definitely need more if last time you had just enough to cover your head.
Hi! Your video was so helpful! I was getting my hair highlighted at the salon but with everything getting so expensive I can no longer afford to get my hair done professionally. I’m going to order the same Redken shades Eq toners you used because that’s to tone I want for my highlights. Only thing is I have a lot of different tones in my hair. I have golden and some orange. My natural hair color is a dark brown. Do you think the formulation will work for me? I am planning on lightening my highlights with bleach.
Thank you! If you have golden and orange tones, you may need something thing with a blue base. If your highlights are a level 9, 09P should work for that. I just want to say be careful with lightening your hair with bleach over existing highlights. It can cause A LOT of damage and breakage. Take it from someone who has made this mistake. If you want to lighten without bleach, try a hi lift blonde. I use ION color from Sally's for that. It's not as harsh and damaging as bleach. I have a video on it if interested! :)
@@athomewithallison9524 hi Allison!! Thank you for sharing your videos. I want to lighten my roots which is 6-7 nr without bleach. I have done full highlights before. Is it possible? What colour did you use?
@@aelo130 hi! You could try high lift color. I have a video on it: th-cam.com/video/SAtwtJs9Yvg/w-d-xo.html
Make sure you pick the tone you want your hair to be (ash, neutral, golden). It lifts and tones at the same time! :)
@@athomewithallison9524 thank you so much!
Do you color your hair first and then tone or are you using the toners as the main way to keep your blonde.
I use the toners to keep the blonde fresh/not yellow or brassy. I will occasionally bleach my regrowth and then tone, but my hair is fairly light naturally so it's not necessary for me to do that often. It's not as noticeable as it might be on someone with darker hair.
Very pretty
Thank you!!
Thank you so much for this video. Do you have a cash app?
my friend has brown copper color, but she want kind light blonds between them what you recommend pls advise .thank you
She could go with 9aa or 8c depending how light she wants the blonde. To avoid it looking too orange, add a little bit of 8 or 9n. I've never done this specifically, but that would be my recommendation!
I’m here because my country is in lockdown again and my hairdresser (even though I left a lot of money at her salon over the years 350 per visit) she refuses to give me the recipe that I can use to tone my yellow / very bright orange ends at home 😩 I’m so sad since I don’t want to mess anything up I usually have a bright icy but not white blonde one wrong move and I can mess it up. What toners should I use and do I need a processing solution even if some of my hair is at a level 9 or even 10 sometimes since I’ve been blond for 15+ years
Thank you for this video btw :)
Wow! I'm sorry to hear she won't help you out! I don't think that's fair. So, you always need the processing solution because that is what activates the toner. If your hair isn't as light as mine is here, you may be able to skip the crystal clear, but if it is that light than definitely use it. If you are going for more of an icy look do equal parts 9v and 9p (and crystal clear if needed). Basically exactly what I did, just leave out the 9GI. Hope this helps! Good luck! :)
@@athomewithallison9524 thank you! My hair is as light as yours so I will have to take the crystal clear aswell. Is it always 1:1:1 mixing ratio ? I feel so sad having to google or TH-cam search my toning recipe I just don’t understand some people. Thank you for helping out 😃
@@N0N4M30 it's not sad at all!! I do the same thing! You can use as much or little of the crystal clear as you want. The more you use, the more the formula will be diluted (think of creamer in coffee). If you want to bring the level 9 toners to a level 10, then yes definitely do equal parts!
Wooooow, this Hair color is AMAZING on you. You Look so sweet and beauty.
Thank you so much!! 😊
I do my own too, I use redken 9n and 9gb but I don’t know what toner to use
If you are using their actually color vs. Shades eq, you probably don't need toner. If you bleached your hair, you could use 9n and 9gb, if you like those, just in the toner instead of the color!
Thank you for the video! Do you need to have your hair bleached in order for the toner to take the color or natural hair will retone?
You're welcome! From what I understand, virgin hair doesn't take to color/toner as well. You should see a little bit of a result, but not as much as the bleached part. I don't usually use blonde toner on my natural hair. However, I have about a level 8-9 blonde naturally and if I put a level 7 toner on my root for a "shadow root" it doesn't work as well compared to the part the was previously dyed. Hope this helps!
How can it be non damaging if you use a processing solution ?
It's demi permanent and the solution is weaker than 10 vol developer. It's sitting on top of the hair, not opening the cuticle. If you are only toning once a month or so, it should not damage your hair.
Do you bleach your hair all over or what do you do prior to toning?
My whole head (except for a small shadow root) was pretty much bleached awhile before I did this video. I just tone to eliminate any yellow/brassy tones. Once the toner fades, you can tone again without bleaching any parts that were previously bleached. You only want to bleach hair that hasn't previously been bleached to avoid damage.
Did you bleach your roots? What volume did you use? Thank you so much.
I always use 30 volume for bleach, never 40! Sometimes I even use 20 and just leave it on longer. Keep in mind my hair is pretty light naturally, though. About a level 8
@@athomewithallison9524 can I send you a picture of my hair and I will pay you to tell me what to use besides the bleach Schwarzkopf bleach
@@athomewithallison9524 basically I just have dirty ugly brown roots on blonde hair that somebody was toning that did my roots but she’s not answering my phone call and I need to go to court and I like warm blonde. I just need to do my roots and tone it if you could just tell me what toner to use I will definitely send you a cash app or anything for helping me. I need a Warm blonde not platinum blonde but just warm blonde not brown not white but not yellow
@@athomewithallison9524 I can’t thank you enough you are so cool and so beautiful and so nice. Thank you so much sweetheart sweet angel.
Could you please write me all the products to buy it
Everything is linked in the description of the video. All products are from Walmart! :)
If you are not a professional how were you able to get them from Salon Centric?
I misspoke. I either order from Walmart or Skyline Beauty.
DIY person here. If I have probably level 10 hair and I have level shades eq 10n can I mix that with level 10gi and make it be blonde champagne color? Also how long did u leave this tone on your hair?
Hi! I leave it on for 20 minutes. Thats the recommended time and what you want to do if you want it to last the longest. If you want a champagne blonde I would maybe skip the 10gi since that will deposit a gold tone. Try 10n, 10vv, and 9nb (there is no 10nb). Funny enough I might be trying something similar soon!
@@athomewithallison9524 oh thank you I’m not a hairstylist so definitely trying to do my own hair at home lol thank u I’ll definitely be getting these thank u!
@@athomewithallison9524 if I have the shades 10n and 9NA can I just buy the 10vv? Or do I need the 9nb?
@@brittanykoenig2376 If you are going for Champagne blonde I would skip the 9NA. It will probably come out too ashy since 10N is on the cooler side of neutral as well. You could try just doing the 10N and 10VV and see how that comes out first. But I think the 9NB will give you the beige-blonde you are looking for!
@@athomewithallison9524 ok thank u so much! How much did you use of each like half a oz and oz of processing solution? And did you put it in wet hair or dry hair?
Did you do a root shadow as well? I’m curious what you used
I did! When my hair is this light, I usually use Shades EQ 8N or 7N...depending on how much contrast I want
Where do we buy the redken shades EQ?
I actually get it through Walmart's website. They pull from other vendors and it arrives pretty quickly!
Are the reds Ken shades EQ from Walmart legit…? Because you can’t get them off the redone sight itself and I’ve heard it’s illegal to buy or sell salon grade coloring products. So it doesn’t make sense and I just wanted to make sure haha. I’ve also heard products sold at Ulta or Amazon sometimes are fake or altered from the actual legit product and that’s why they’re cheaper. Idk just some stuff I’ve heard recently 🤷🏼♀️😅
I have heard that too. I wish I could say I knew for sure. They definitely tone my hair to my likely and do not feel damaging!
How often do you tone?
I would say on average about once a month.
Any combos for a bright champagne blonde?😊👍🏻
I'm actually going to be doing this next! I just ordered 9p, 9n, 9nb and will be mixing it will clear. More to come!
@@athomewithallison9524 I ended up ordering the
9 VG
9 GI
9N ….
@@athomewithallison9524 The Irish Cream one is nice.
@@athomewithallison9524 The P’s 👍🏻
GI series, …
Girl I may not be even toning for a bit , I bleached my entire head🤭.
Considering hitting it with ,matrix purple shampoo, 3 minutes.
Just to get me through for a bit.
Do you think I should just wait to get shades , before toning my head?
(Meaning, no purple shampoo).
Or the shampoo would be fine🤔?
Barber said no more bleach and avoid toners.
Although he doesn’t know about shades eq , that they are boosted.
It’s not T-18 … ya know.
@@athomewithallison9524 hi
My hair is short. I’m pondering what size clear 000 to buy🤔…?
The large is kinda too expensive, but maybe it will last forever.
Or do u think the 8 0z would be a good choice?
Lol 🙏🏻😂
Thank you!
Redone shades eq is suppose to be put on dry hair…thought this may help
Yeah, I do know that. If I am trying to go darker, I will do it on dry hair. I do it on wet hair to tone so I don't overtone. Personal preference.
Have you tried 9RB ?
I have not, but I have considered it many times! Maybe soon!
eBay has level 10s now… I seen them when I ordered my color last night. I think it’s alotta salons maybe …selling overstock. Not saying all those sellers are legit so be careful but I trust them more then I would Walmart by some of the reviews I’ve read saying they have a lot of counterfeit especially their redken processing solution too.
Oh good to know! I haven't had any issues yet, but that makes sense
No beauty supply sell me the professional products unless I’m licensed 😮 I’ve been told Amazon and eBay sell fake color and redken products
Geez I forgot to switch my google to mine I posted with hubbys. Lol
I've heard this too. I ordered from skyline beauty once, but can't remember if the quality of the product was any better. I'm going to try getting it from there again.
are you a hairdresser
Nope! I've just been doing my own hair for many many years.
