Your hair turned out great, beautiful color. I'm still a little nervous doing my own hair but you made it look easy. Have a great weekend 😊
I love how you combined the shades.
Last time I coloured my gloves broke and I had red hands for a week *laugh*
hi Sheila , I also dye my hair at home. Wow, you are really good on this , I will try your technique next time, I was first doing my roots and then the rest of my hair but I like how you did it on your hair. Thank you for your tutorial!
I love your video and hair so easy to follow! Will definitely try it!!!
Great video - thank you!! Your hair looks gorgeous!!
Omg!!!! It looks amazing
Thaaaank you! I'm braving doing this myself for a misty ash shade...first time using these.
Awesome video, thanks for this! I’m going grey and want to tone the line of demarcation, such a great video, protecting the new growth, perhaps I’ll post a before and after, thanks again!
Good video very helpful and great results
Great tutorial!!!!
Thank you ☺️ It look so good
Hi-thank you for this video. You did get close to the roots. Can you do middle of the head and work the way down instead or you should get close to the root like you did? Thank you and your color came out beautiful.
Loved this tutorial! And btw loved your fun fact about hair being stubborn during those cycles in women. Now it makes sense I've been told my hair was stubborn, didn't know what they meant by that.
Outcome of the colour formula is bomb👍🏽🥰💛🤩
Thank you Nikki! I’ll be posting another toner video with a Wella platinum color soon!
Hi. Do you start the time once you start applying toner or once it has all been applied? Thank you
It looks so beautiful you did a good job
Such great tutorials! Thanks x
Thank you Emily! More to come soon!
So beautiful thank you for your time with us I so much appreciate it . I think redken should sell it to everyone. What’s the big deal , toner is toner . And if you can do it it yourself and save some money then why not right .
I love your hair. ❤️
We can see it!!! Gorgeous!
What a beautiful result! 👍Thank you for sharing! 🙏 One question: I have very orange pigmented hair. Can you suggest a EQ Shade that helps in such a case? Thank you 💕
Hello your video it’s very helpful but I don’t understand what is “ ounce”? Thanks 🙏
I’m nervous to do myself since I had ulta do it with this but she never told me how long to leave on to remove all brass tones but to leave a gloss ? How long to leave on I want a platinum no brass to my highlights do u leave it on all hair too while wet
Thanks!!!❤❤❤
I’m having a hard time doing the back of my head for root touchup. And my hair is long like yours. Also, which Redken toner did you use?
Hi Elle, your videos years ago, started my love of hair coloring. Your video here is so thorough and flows with your confidence. My question is on the last formula for brunette, you said .50 oz of .05n + 1 oz processing solution?
I want to see a tutorial for this sleek style! It turned out absolutely gorgeous.
Ok Brittany!! I can film a tutorial no problem
Beauty by Sheila Lynn oh cool thank you! It’s a beautiful hairstyle
seriously beautiful !!
Thank you Arianne! Xoxo 😘
New subby here😊 love the way your hair turned out!
Hi Helenkitty! Thank you for watching and the kind comment!
Gorgeous! So perfect! 🙌💞
Hi beautiful, I love how detailed you were especially with advising to not do the roots. I think your hair color was pretty to begin with but the colors came out really pretty mixed together. I don’t color my hair much but I didn’t know the color didn’t take when your ovulating or on your period. Love the results & I definitely see the sheen. FW
Thank you Jackie!! I love the feedback
@@BeautybySheilaLynn Your very welcome
Hey lovely - the toner won't lift the root area, only tone it. Shades EQ has no lifting power at all.
Also why did salon ulta do this with my hair wet at the bowl for she did partial highlights then rinse all out then she did the toner , I see u did it dry ?
Hi thanks for the video. Can these be used only after bleaching or also after bleaching/coloring with a Redken color (10 AB)? Tend to pull warm...especially roots. Thanks!
Unfortunately they do work there best after bleaching. If you have virgin roots it cancel out some unwanted gold tones but for the most part they are meant to tone lifted hair 😃 thank you for watching!
All good instruction. Is the formula at end of tutorial?
Great Tia thank u
I'm letting my natural gray/white grow out. What can I use on the gray/white to 'brighten' it removing slight yellowing. You did such a great job. Your hair was beautiful to start with...and then more
A toner will almost certainly take out the yellowing and make it look a lot cleaner. Before that though, try a purple shampoo first. They can do the same thing and it's a lot easier. Buy a decent one and wear gloves so the purple doesn't get on your nails. You might find that that's all you need. Purple shampoo is also good for blonde hair that is yellowing.
Can you please tell me how you get your incredibly smooth shiny and beautiful hair?! I love it! I wish mine was like that. How do you get it to be so smooth without a bunch of hairs sticking out? And the shine, oh my gosh! I have been trying to get my hair like that for all of my life it seems like and I am no spring chicken, lol, but as of yet haven’t been successful. Why? If you could help me with this I couldn’t imagine finally having beautiful hair like yours. Thank you
thanks for sharing - was wondering if I could color my grey roots with thisI :-)
It’s really meant for pre-lightened hair. I would use a double permanent color like an NN to cover your grays
Very good video.
Hi Sheila is so beautiful, tell me what color are your roots is beautiful. I’m trying trying to do it at home . Just kuz Covid thanks so much . Oh by the way I have lost of gray , so maybe color fusion by Redken?
I luv the colour of your hair before you changed it. What colour did you use to get that?
I do my own colour too. I struggle with finding a balance between cool and warm tones but this is the perfect balance. Very pretty how it turned out 👍🏻
Try using shades eq ...1 1/4 oz of 010GI (Tahitian Sand), 3/4 oz 09T (chrome) with 2oz of shades eq processing solution. Apply on dampened hair for 10- 15 min. Makes for a great blonde!!
@@jnako4361 hi can you use the 9’s & 10’s on level 8
Yellow brassy ?
Thank you!
How often can we tone our hair? You make it look easy I was messy your hair looks great.
Will this fade and give me my blond back after a few weeks???
perfect
New Subscriber! 😍
Can I add clear gloss toner to make t
Hi I’ve just come across your video as I’m going to tone my hair with redken - my hair is medium length so shorter than yours, how many mls of the actual toner do you need? The whole bottle? Half or a quarter? X
I would say start with a quarter and just mix more if you need it. Make sure got saturate everything really well though!! Thank you for watching! I’d love to see a pic or let me know how it turns out 🥰 xoxo Sheila
I am wondering just by getting only half way through, how thos will turn out, because not sure does not look like you are saturating any hair, using that brush from the side.. but we shall see on the end.. 🤓
Beautiful
I've been looking for a video like this! The way you explain everything just makes sense! I recently purchased the shades EQ platinum ice. I mixed it with processing solution and tested it in a small section but it turned my hair purple and I don't know why! Do you think I should be mixing clear with it?
Yes if you mix clear I dilutes the purple. But remember with the toner it rinses out in a few washes usually so you won’t be purple forever!! Thank you so much for watching! Xoxo Sheila
@@BeautybySheilaLynn Thank you so much Sheila!! This is so helpful!! ☺️
What does mix clear mean so I won’t go purple
@@madisonstoyandresortreview You can buy a "crystal clear" toner which is like all the other Shades EQ toners but it's clear and apart from giving your hair a gorgeous gloss, it dilutes the other toners it's mixed with, so any purple etc will be more subtle. Also, applying Shades EQ toners on wet hair will provide a more subtle and gentle result.
How soon can I tone my hair after getting it done?
I had no idea you could purchase through Amazon! It turned out great.
Yes ma’am! Amazon is amazing lol I just updated the description with the links! I completely forgot until this morning!
Thanks so much and I'll keep watching.
Hi, thanks for the informative video! You are adorable. You are not weird at all talking about avoiding coloring your hair while on your period. I have an extensive medical background and your hormones change drastically during your cycle (pretty obvious) but less obvious is that these hormones are directly connected to your hair. The hormones are controlled by a part of the left kidney, weird, yeah, but true! You are SO cool for giving this advise. Anyone else listening should follow this advise. I wonder if men have a time that they need to avoid too, lol.
Hey beautiful thank you so much for this video! You are so amazing and down to earth and beautiful. Can I please ask you a question because I can’t get a hold of the girl that did my hair that I trust before it was cut. I need to do my roots, but she was using a Redken toner and she was making my hair Peach blonde or blond not platinum blonde but way blonder than my photo on TH-cam. I have dark brown roots so I use 40 volume level lift and I don’t know what toner to use. I would even be willing to cash app you for the answer, so I don’t fuck up my hair, I know time is money. Let me know. Thank you so much.❤💜💙
Are there typically seals on the shades toner bottles or processing solution when new?
No ma’am! The bottle is usually screwed really tight but no seals
Will applying it in these sections make one area process longer than another due to the time it takes to apply. ? Making an inconsistent result? Dry hair, not wet? Always so unsure
Hi there! Usually the results aren’t inconsistent enough to even notice because you have to start somewhere lol. Dry or wet hair is fine. The results are usually better on dry hair, or they last longer, just Because it absorbs the color better. When it’s wet it’s really just to neutralize the unwanted tones vs the dry hair acts more like a dye than a toner. Hope this helps!!
This is always my question too. The left (our right) side is processing a little longer than the other side. But clearly it doesn’t matter that much! :) What I understand even less is how this works with bleaching, that goes faster than toning right?
@@Flooorine Hey Flo - yes, you've got to be very quick (both doing your roots with bleach, and applying the toner). Maximum development time for Redken Shades EQ is 20 minutes, so you want to make sure you get through the application pretty quick in order for the product to do it's thing in the 20 minutes. I try to do each side equally - eg top front left, then move to the top front right etc and keep going like that - so that the colour is more even.
Hi dear! Does the air need to be clean? ( hair products)
If I recently did balayage and the blonde is very brassy will it work? My blonde strands arent icy, but I would like them to be! Help!
Well unfortunately with the Balyage technique your roots will usually be darker or brassier than the other blonde that was previously lightened. So there isn’t much you can do for that 🥺 so sorry I hope this info helps!
It's very hard to find in London UK the processing solution, any other alternative? Thanks
Hi Elisa do you have access to Paul Mitchell products? They have a really good liquid processing solution too 🤩
I’m on the hunt too lol London is so limited - www.beautycos.co.uk/redken-shades-eq-gloss-processing-solution-1000-ml
Can you use the 9’s
If you’re a mostly yellow brassy level
7?
🙏🏻 Thank you!
I’m a 10 now😂
Gorgeous
Thank you for watching Ashley!
It’s called Redken Shades EQ! I have used it for about 40 years! They are excellent products and donot damage your hair.
I’m starting to get a few greys about 10% could I put this on my roots to ends to help?
Hi! So I always say that to cover grays you want to use a permanent hair color with a double color. Like a 7NN. In this case the semi permanent toner might cover them temporarily but they will sneak back soon! I know cause I have a few too 🥺 it’s more subtle than permanent though so you might like the results for a little while. I would use a 10 vol developer to lift a little more than a processing solution
Beauty by Sheila Lynn thanks beautiful!! It’s just until the hairdresser open in Ireland which could be end of June 😭 xx
Turned out with some green undertones. Probably it’s the 09T
I am planning to do 9P and 9V.
My stylist uses redken shades eq 9b, 9v, and 9n. Are there any toners from sallys close to these shades that you would recommend? I'd like to do my own hair but I'm afraid I won't find authentic redken without a license.
The Wella professional series is a great line. You can use any Demi or semi permanent hair color with a level 10 or lower for a toner. I like the T15 and T25 together myself
@@BeautybySheilaLynn thank you so much!! ❤
@@BeautybySheilaLynn
Hi 👋 I bleached my shoulder length hair it looks light orange and yellow…..
I really just want it a warm blonde less ash.
Do u think a combination of T-18
t-28 is 👍🏻?
😅🙏🏻
Or try the redken shades eq?
Like A 9 v
And a 9 B?
Thanks 🙏🏻
Changed my mind . I’m a 10 now.
Going for Shades
10VG
9P
9GI
Maybe 9N
hi ! is the clear mixture that you used is what will dilute the 9 to a level 10???
The clear is the developer which interacts with the toner to deposit the color! I hope that makes sense! Let me know if you have any other questions xoxo Sheila
@@BeautybySheilaLynn I think she meant another product. There is a clear solution you can add to the developer and the colour to dilute it and to make sure it is not darken your hair
@@cupcake4181 The 000😁
Hi, you can use the redken tone alone or with other solution that is not redken?
You unfortunately cannot use it alone...but you can mix with any developer that’s a 10 volume or lower. Liquid is best, but any cream developer will do too! If you can though, using the brands corresponding developer always has the best results! Hope this helps
It’s a great video . Would have liked to see what toners you used .
Did you apply heat?
I bought the bottle w/ the pink label and I think its not a processing solution. I just did test strips for 09n and 09nb and rinsed them and I don't see any change in my hair shade or color.
Hmmmm sounds definitely like you didn’t get the processing solution. You can also use regular developer too like a 10 volume
@@BeautybySheilaLynn I bought some 40 to use when I bleach and got it out the closet and its clear. so I did a test strip, waited 20 min and my hair color is exactly the same. I think I'm gonna return it and get what I need.
Yeah that sounds like the color is faulty. It should definitely lift, even just a little
Janet Dungan It sound like you purchased the clear. You can use to shine your hair alone with processing solution. or use to cut any of the the shade EQ to lighten.
Where is Link to amazon to purchase
Looks gorgeous. Will this work on a level 7 regrowth with a level 9 base?
It definitely will lighten up the base for sure!
@@BeautybySheilaLynn did your exact formula and I love it. This is a game changer. Xx
Lauren Wellington yaaahhhh!!! 🥰
@@WLottie1 I wanna do this too! Do you have a before and after pic?
I dont see any difference btw before, after?
I don't see Amazon link
What color did you use.
So toner can be used to alter color of your natural hair on roots or entire strands?
Hi Janet! So the toner can alter your natural hair color when used with the correct developer. If it is previously colored then it won’t lift or change that in any way. Color doesn’t lift color. But virgin hair is a different story. Hope that helps!
Beauty by Sheila Lynn yeah my roots are getting darker every year and very moist and dull so when I highlight it clashes more than a decade ago when I was more light dirty blonde root. So I think an 8 toner would be good. What do you think? When I went to salons the toner they did I think was a 9 and I left upset cuz it was so ashy and I like more honey gold or pinch darker, no orange or red reflections.
Janet Dungan Janet you are spot on. I would even use a level 7 it’s still blonde but not as harsh as bleaching with a bright blonde toner. It’s more subtle
Did you use the redken clear? And the process solutions is the developers. I got bleach blonde hair and I want it white.
Hi brandy. Your outcome always depends on what you start with. Toners always help combat the unwanted tones you have right now. You can always add clear but it dilutes the mixture-basically takes it down a notch every time you add it. Good luck!
What level is your hair now? Yellow? If you want it white you might either need to bleach it again or use a toner to cancel out the yellow. If it’s banana peel yellow then get a cool toned toner.
I mean inside of a banana yellow
hello please can you tell me what you put as a number? because i don't understand english i speak french if not i like your color and i also have a question to get the color from your base I have a light brown what do I wear to have it? Thanks in advance for your return
Hi there! Do you mean the number level of the toner?? If so it’s a level 9
@@BeautybySheilaLynn Hello thank you for your return,
my question was the measurements in ml of each toner onunce is 30 ml is that it?
and how to get the color of your hair (the root) if we have a brown base?
Oh I’m so sorry! So the amount of developer should be double the amount of toner. It’s a 1:2 ratio so if it’s 30 ml of toner you should mix with 60 ml of developer. And you can watch my how to Balyage at home tutorial to see exactly how I get my highlights 😍😘🥰
@@BeautybySheilaLynn is it not 1:1????
i love this !! how do you make your cover thumbnails?? 😩
It’s an app called Bazaart! You have to get it for thumbnails it’s super easy!! You can message me on FB and I can tell you how to use it!!
It is so beautiful, can I use these shades on natural hair, or only on bleached hair?
Normally this product works best on pre lightened hair. It won’t do anything on natural tones 😉
@@BeautybySheilaLynn can you use the 9’s on
Level 8 yellow brassy bleached hair?
🙏🏻
Hi is the processing solution clear like water?
Yes Rosa!! Sorry for the super delay on getting back to you
After applying the shade, I only rinse it, cannot use a shampoo?
No, you shampoo & condition as normal
Does Redken have a clear gloss with violet undertone?
Not that I know of. They might have an Additive you can use?? I can definitely check 😃
Hi! So update is I don’t think redken carries a gloss with a violet base. You can get colors that are violet but not the clear gloss. It just comes in clear to help boost shine 💎 hope this helps!!
@@BeautybySheilaLynn Yes! Thank you so much. I ended up getting 3 different violet-based toners to try and create either my own mix or see if one works the best on the color I have now by doing some small patch tests!
Can i use other processing solution ?
Yes you can! Any liquid or cream developer will work but it’s best to stick to the brands processing lotion to get the best results 😉
So its one and a half of each toner then - 3 oz then 3 oz processing developer?
Yes that’s correct. This process is a 1:1 ratio
Watching this confused me so much cause there are few things completely speaking against what my hair dresser said 😂
- she used it on wet hair
- she said you have to develop it for 25 mins cause anything shorter than that means the process won't be finished and make it look weird
- 9 will be too dark for this kind of blonde so you either have to use the 10 tones OR you use 9 but with this gloss solution to dilute it. You only used the procession solution, nothing to dilute it, right?
- she mixed it with a 1:1 ratio not 1:2
I wanted to use it tomorrow but so confused now cause it is just the opposite of how she used it 😂
According to the directions, you are meant to use it on dry hair. A lot of people use it on wet hair though, as long as it is thoroughly towel dried. If you let it develop for a lesser amount of time (20-40 min is the recommended time), the color may not deposit fully and may fade faster. Every minute is roughly equivalent to 1 wash. The mixing ratio is 1:1. Also, you have to make sure you apply it quickly - using a slant tip bottle for global application is fast and thorough as long as you section.
Dilute it with clear gloss if you are looking for a higher level - so if you want a level 10 toner and you have the level 9, add clear. this helps especially on the ends, which may be more porous and become over toned. Hope this helps!
Hi again! I’m so sorry to have confused you! It’s always best to go to a professional but if you can’t these are just things I’ve learned along the way! Toner scan be used on wet or dry hair. Everyone’s outcome is different depending on how high you have lifted the hair with bleach prior to toning. If it’s really blonde 25 minutes may result in too much of the base color absorbing. If it’s a neutral toner then 25 minutes is ok as it won’t turn purple or blue. Let me be clear when I say any hair color can be used as a toner depending on what level of blonde you want to achieve. I don’t know how anyone else was taught but I learned that fact a long time ago from some old school hair dressers who paved the way for all the bujjee ones lol that call things by weird names. I’m as honest as they come about hair and I call a spade a spade. It doesn’t have to be a level 10 or higher on the label to be a toner. Also; all toners should be mixed 1 part color 2 parts developer to dilute the potency. That way like I said before the base color doesn’t over deposit on the hair giving it a slight tint of whatever the base color used is. Redken toners are pretty dummy proof lol don’t be nervous. It’s only a Demi/semi permanent hair color so it will wash out in like 8-10 washes.
Thank you for the technical instructions sandy! Lol I sometimes don’t know how to explain things but this was very easy to understand! Thank you for watching xoxo 😘 Sheila
Sandy's directions sound about right :)
air temp doesn’t play a factor with shades unless you are tying to deepen the tone/deposit then you would place a bag over it and possibly under the dryer....otherwise it doesn’t matter. Best of luck !
Thanks for the tip 😌

Hello new subbie here💝💝
Hi Pamela!! Thank you for subscribing!
@@BeautybySheilaLynn Your so welcome💝
You can now get the Redken Shades EQ with Bonder Insider for rebuilding damaged hair,.
FYI I used 9v ( generic ) with processing solution and my hair turned dark brown / purple. Pretty but shocking and not cute for me - they don’t offer clear or Pearl at Sally’s .
Oh no!?
I’m a Bob length, I bleached my head. It’s a light orange/ yellow. Mostly hot orange roots .
I just want to tone it. More Beige blonde than ash.
Do you think a T-28
&
T-18
Rather than the redken?
Thanks 🙏🏻
👋
Thanks again
Shitt….
I’m about to try the Generic.
I’m yellow brassy 8.
I look crazy😑
Are they crap?
I wanted to avoid any ash. Looking for more golden…
(I need the 9v for the yellow)
Maybe use less in my mix?
😂🙏🏻 any advice, Thanks!
Kinda green
Love the content of this video, it’s super helpful! A suggestion for improvement would be to focus more on the content and less on the video editing...the cuts are a bit distracting and aren’t necessary. Just this artists’ 2 cents 🙃
Just regarding the stylized cuts mostly at the beginning of the video...
Btw, my hair came out great, thank you!!
Yeah! I’m so glad it tuned out well! Yes I definitely need to learn how to record a long take without messing up lol. Still working on the editing portion
Those 3 shades you used was too much ash gray or violet mixed together that would turn anybody s hair too green or ashy you didn't show hair right after rinsing I have doubts about final result
Amazon now ONLY sells Shades EQ to licensed professionals! UGH Amazing how you can probably buy bomb making supplies off Amazon, or very caustic industrial chemicals, but you CANNOT buy hair color glosses? This is the salon lobbyists at work! sheesh Great tutorial though! I LUV the final shade result. Gorgeous!
Yeah when I posted the video on Twitter they asked me to take it down since only professionals should be using it. I’m like who cares?? Lol
@@BeautybySheilaLynn is it 3 oz of toner ? You said in video. But description says 2....
eBay 🙃
My sad story it’s that refresh just been in my hair like 3 showers 😭😭😭😭
you also should tone damp hair, not dry
I meant level 8.😅
ESTROGEN RISES DURING OVULATION SO THAT MAKES SENSE! Your hair will always feel the best during ovulation but because of that exact reason( its health and shine) its almost like its too healthy (not porous enough) to take the color!
this is supposed to go on damp hair.
It can go on damp or dry hair. But yes, damp is usually best
It actually can go on soaking wet, damp, and dry. Go on professional websites that sell shades eq and you can find articles and videos by professionals from redken and elsewhere in the industry using the product in all three ways and depending on the client which way is best for the situation at hand
