Do you have to tone blonde hair?

it depends! i've had a stylist insist i needed a toner on my blonde hair, pale blonde, yellow and white, she put a toner on it and turned it ashy grey, i had grey hair, it also kind of had a blue tint to it, another toner another stylist put on my hair, she turned my hair lavender purple! yikes, i've had some bad experiences with toners, i now either get my roots done or get a highlift, which is usually a platinum blonde, natural blonde, or beige blonde.

 

the difference isnt real big, but highlift/toner does make that little bit of difference, this little difference makes it a whole lot nicer!

 

goodluck

 

If you arent already I would reccomend a purple shampoo and conditioner.Or you can get a little tube of purple additive that you can add to your shampoo/condish called ardell red/gold corrector  if you want to keep the tone you get at the hairdressers.I like sally's beauty supply they carry the tube I was talking about and its super cheap.Aveda makes a great conditioner for blondes called blue malva(which is actually purple) which gets rid of unwanted brassy tones.
