My stylist overprocessed my foil highlights, and instead of Gisele Bundchen's golden light and medium blonde hair, I got skunk chunky stripes. She usually gets it right, but she is not consistent. People often asks me "did you lighten your hair?" or "did you darken your hair?". I just want it to be the same always...grrrrr! I need to start doing it myself. She uses Redken EQ color which makes my hair very shiny. Can someone look at my pics please and help me acchieve a color somewhere in between the colors you see on my hair. Someone mentioned I should tone it. But I don't even know how to do that. I like contrast, but this time it is too chunky. The bleached highlights need to be toned down. Please Help!!!

A hair stylist friend of mine told me to mix 3/4 tube of Majirel color 6.3 (loreal Professional color) with 20 vol and shampoo and leave for 15 minutes. He called it "Rinsage" or toning. He said that will make the colors blend more and will be similar to that Gisele hair.

What do you guys think of it????

Thank you!!!!

From what I know, she has natural chestnut brown hair, with highlights--which I am sure are toned. 

Try using one of the born blonde toners on just the highlights.

Try the winsome wheat.  They are very temporary so it's fun to try them and see what shade you want prior to getting a demi. 

Good luck!
