I can't help you with the toner thing, but while you're waiting for help from someone who can, DON'T BLEACH IT AGAIN!!! -------------

The yellow hair you have now is normal in bleaching. When bleaching the hair goes though several color stages, red, orange, gold, yellow and pale yellow. If you want to be a level 9 blonde you can tone right now with a level 9: ash, neutral or golden blonde depending on what tone blonde your going for. You can use a box color to tone your hair with, that will take your hair to a more natural blonde. If you want to be a level 10 you need to bleach to pale yellow - a little lighter than what you have now and then use a toner from Sally's Beauty or a level 10 box color from the store. Eddited to add: If you want the white bleached blonde look you can bleach until the hair appears white, but if its dry now, you might just try that with a strand test first to make sure your hair can handle that- you don't want to chance breakage. Another way to get a blonde thats close to white blonde is bleach to pale yellow and use a level 10 ash blonde- it will give you whitish blonde hair. Make sure you strand test everything first. ------------- |

What I used to do is dye it again with something that has a violet base in it. Whether you go lighter or darker, as long as it has a violet base it will counter the yellow. If you don't want it any lighter you can use a lower volume of hydrogen peroxide with it so it will be less damaging. ------------- Making metal barettes/concord clips hair safe, long hair style how to: http://alonghair.wordpress.com |
