I went blonde for the first time and I love it, but keeping up w it is such a drag 😭😂

[@sheisaimee]

Fanola no yellow shampoo is a GODSENT. It ashes out so well and gets rid of brass so easily

[@DatsFamily]

Aimee Smith but I find it really drying although it’s amazing for brass

[@maiavlogs3820]

Do you think it takes off orange hightlights? My hair is brown and when I did hightlights it brought the yellow and orange colors I cannot get rid off them I even tried different toners

[@marissa2505]

Maia Vlogs you need to lift your hair again for it to be lighter but until then, a blue shampoo is what you need to help cancel out some of those brassy orange tones because blue cancels out orange & purple cancels out yellow so purple shampoo is only going to cancel out any yellow in your hair and not orange, your purple shampoo basically isn’t helping you until you lighten your hair again

[@ginab4348]

If you love fonola no yellow. Try Muvo ultra blonde purple shampoo. It’s just as pigmented and works just as well but isn’t as drying :) I used fanola for almost 2 years before finding muvo and I will never go back now.

[@Remyredd007]

[@mlamBAcher27]

I have natural level 5-6 hair. I had my hair in a balayage/ombré style and wanted the blonde to compliment/go with my natural hair color. I used the Brass Off Purple shampoo twice a week for about 6-7 months and my hair still looked great! I got it done again only because I wanted more blonde pieces and when my stylist saw it she couldn’t believe how well it grew out. I told her I followed all the blonde hair rules I know (thanks to her and you)! lol

[@jsm0m]

I explain this almost everyday!! I do a lot of clients that want that beige ash and they don’t realize how much maintenance it really takes.. it’s very frustrating haha they think it’s a color when it’s just a tone 😩 maintenance is key!

[@Mar12476]

What toner do you recommend for beige look ???

[@Cisj]

I have been coloring my hair at home for 20 plus years, always, always pulling red and brassy tones and I personally cannot stand any red in my hair. There's nothing about gold, red and brassy tones that I like, and that's all I pull. (Red and gold tones are beautiful, just not for me) Every once in awhile I went to a salon and I would tell the stylist "I'm going to pull red you've got to bleach my hair or whatever it is you have to do. I felt like they were looking right through me as if they didn't understand what I was saying because I always left the salon with the red and brassy tones. I knew there was a way to do it, I knew it and then I found you! You're amazing! No one has ever explained it the way you explain it and I am now brass free doing it myself. Thank you! I'm actually working on it right now. It has takin me a few extra steps but I believe I have found the color that I have always wanted and I have you to thank. I haven't tried it yet but I believe it's the one (6na + 8na)...🙏

Great video! Can you do a video explaining the difference between Blue and Purple shampoo? I know purple shampoo is to tone out yellow and blue is to tone out brassy, orange tones but many people don't understand this. Great references for the video would be Matrix's Brass Off and So Silver shampoo.

[@kelseyc9137]

Yes, please!

[@StarPanda7]

With my experimentation purple makes it more white and blue makes it more sliver. I use them when my hair is super light. I love redken purple shampoo but Fanola no yellow shampoo and their blue is the best in my opinion.

[@LoriThurstonInTunePhoto]

Priscilla Nieto am a level 5 w Auburn undertones, but I am a level 9 ash blonde and I love it, but it’s a bit of work. The purple shampoo is great for the yellow tone (it’s across the color wheel). I however, don’t really have yellow as much as orange brassy. Whereas blue cancels a more orange tone and is more ashy. I am in love with the Fanola no orange. Makes my brassy tones ashy in between regular re-toning about every 4 weeks. So, blue for orange, purple for yellow. 😄.

[@maiavlogs3820]

Priscilla Nieto hello guys I have a question I did hightlights and my hair turned yellow and orange I cannot get rid of the orange hightlights even if I toned .. I toned even blue color nothing works .. I see someone is using the shampoo Fanola no yellow does it really work and should I get it for my orange hightlights? Thank you

[@marissa2505]

Maia Vlogs (Hi, I also do hair) You need to lift your hair again for it to be lighter yellow tones but until then, a blue shampoo is what you need to help cancel out some of those brassy orange tones because blue cancels out orange & purple cancels out yellow so purple shampoo is only going to cancel out any yellow in your hair and not orange it’s basically not going to help you until you lighten your hair again /: if you’re not lightening your hair any time soon you can TRY to tone your hair w/ your purple shampoo on dry hair, id let it sit (depending on how porous (aka damaged) your hair is) for 25 minutes to even an hour. My favorite purple shampoo is KristinEss (it’s from target in a peach colored bottle) but since it is purple shampoo it can be drying so use a deep conditioner after and let that sit 5-10 minutes OR just let your regular conditioner sit longer. Hope this helps😊

[@sarah_renee]

If you hair it super brassy after being lightened with bleach, doesn’t that mean that the colour hasn’t been lifted enough and may need to be bleached again to get to your desired level? Purple shampoo and toner can only do so much

[@ayeshaghzzaal6861]

If u bleach again it may burn your hair

You may need to bleach again or use a blue toner or even green toner to combat the reddish orange colors in problem areas. Green toner may darken a bit seem fyi.

[@heidicain]

I prefer the warm tones as well. I am not blonde but a dark brunette with warm caramel balayage and I love it.

I think it totally depends on your skin tone and features. If your prefer a warmer tone, rock it! Ash can def be aging on some people.

I just got airtouch highlights done so i try to use all these tips, to prolong that beautiful silver ash tone x

[@Bellasafari]

Is it crazy that I prefer more of the brassy tones than the silver tons? Maybe it's the Leo in me... I like the look on guys and girls -- the gold, reddish, blonde tones rather than the silver, bluish gray tones...?

[@Hip.Username]

Yeah, she addresses that at the end of the video, she says that there's nothing wrong with brassy or orange tone hair if it's the color you're wanting. I think orange dyed hair looks really good on some people too, but my hair naturally fades to copper tones as it grows out and it sadly looks gross on me so I tone it. I think it's a matter of cool or warm tone skin

[@allakuznetsova7684]

I love watching such kind of videos, actually having natural cool toned brown hair, trying to transform them into copper red :p

[@nicolebryant2538]

So….. I have have been coloring my hair between a 4~5 dark brown to cover savage sparklers which have been progressing since I was in my early 20s. I happen to be an ICU nurse and very much not a cosmetologist, and I also apparently just lost my mind and decided in order to remove some of the dark buildup that I would use color oops in my hair. Which by the way is like a 2b underlying curl, coarse texture. I do use incredibly high-quality hair products which I think is the only thing that has kept my hair on my head at this point however I am left with a very pretty orange copper on the top, not what I was going for though and some in the midst where a lot of the die has collected little bit darker and now what I think I’m going to do is take what I have on hand which is a ton of different punky color and dyes and all types of crazy hair colors and I’m going to mix a medium Brown gloss with a mauve color paint by Wella. Does this sound like a horrible idea?

[@melaniewhite444]

Should I use the Oleoplex 3 first and then purple shampoo with purple conditioner that comes with it? And/or for the next time I shampoo and condition my hair may I use a shampoo/conditioner for colored hair? One more question (sorry) Is it safe to mix the purple shampoo with let’s say Oleoplex Shampoo or any shampoo for colored hair? Thank you and your tutorials have saved me now probably 1000.00 or more! No shit Sherlock! Since I was 18 I had been going top salons! NOW however I have learned to cut and color myself and so far only spend 11.00 dollars on color then I trim myself as needed! And it’s so convenient! Your rockin it with so many of us here in Naples, Florida! I have told hundreds of girlfriends about you and your techniques! So happy for your success and sharing your expertise and love with all of us here! If you ever come to Naples you would love it! Gorgeous like you!

[@kikipeak08]

Yes I love the color and tone of her hair in this video. What did you use for this color?

[@12fabulus]

Why is it that toner washes out in 3-5 days on me?

[@marilyisawesome]

breanna M your hair must be very porous. I would recommend not washing your hair for 48hrs after toning so it has time to set in and after that follow all the tips she listed on the video :)

[@RachASMR]

Same girl.

[@christaylor2529]

Dont wash your hair after toning it for 48 hours to a week if you can stand it that long. Also could be not letting the toner stay on long enough the first time. Use a shade lighter than the toner your want so say you want your color to be a level 7 blonde use a level 8 instead and leaving it on longer helps to develop longer and deposit more. Toners usually just coat the hair. Like u putting on a coat. It's on the out side more you wash the coat comes off. Especially if you just leave the toner for a short time. If your hair is pre lightened with lightner (bleach) it will always be there no matter how dark of a toner u use unless it under a level 4 then might not wash out much at all. All semi and toner wash of the hair eventually just exposing the bleached or high color#/ level lifted exposing only the what the peroxide lifted the color out of the you natural color. When you pre light with bleach you can reduce the brassy returning back faster if you lift the color of highlights past the brass color so when the toner starts to fad it wont look brassy. It cause your pre lights are not light enough before you place the toner. Also not toning long enough processing time. If does wash also just tone again deposit on that's 10 volume or less mixed with toner and reapply. Use less shampoo also helps you dont need a car wash or your colored hair. Color treated shampoos help but still less is more. Cooler water more conditioning and also deep condition once a week meaning leave any conditioner on hair for more than 39 minutes to and hour wrap hot towels or bag it and heat up with dryer. Let completely cool down then rinse with extremely cold water.

[@MarieSAnderson71]

What do you suggest for brunette hair with blonde highlights? I get my roots touched up every 6-8 weeks to cover grays and balayage a couple of times a year. I have tried the blue shampoos that are targeted for removing brass from brunette hair but it always leaves my highlights with a teal tinge! Not a good look! Should I just stick to purple shampoos? Will that help take the brass out of my darker roots? Thanks! Love the education I get from your videos!

[@riverrock335]

Purple shampoo does tone brass but it also dulls the hair.

[@peacelily9216]

I think the brass looks good on you.. brings out your eyes

[@SometimeAgo65]

Thanks for the tips on brassy hair, however I really need to know about HOW to match your natural hair color. I was heavy blond for years, decided a few years ago to go back to my natural color which is what stylist call a dark blond and it DID NOT have red tones. I do have a lot of gray now because I'm my fifties but still trying to look as young as possible. So, when I get my hair colored, it has red tones. It looks red to me. I hate it!! If I can't get it right, I may as well go blond again. Should I use an Ashe color and risk GREEN? Should I go with the palest shade of light Ashe or neutral brown? PLEASE, PLEASE give me some advice. I know it would be hard to because you don't know me and can't see my hair but I'm asking your professional opinion,or anyones opinion who is a professional stylist. I'm desperate 💜💜💜

Refusing to explain so i could prevent it in the future saying 'i wouldn' t understand because i didn't study to be a hairstylist'. So far i haven't heard anything that i should've done differently.. Does anyone have any tips?

Please tell me what to do in case scenario #5? That's me that you're describing. Here where I live we don't seem to have experienced enough coiffeurs that understand fully what we want from a balayage. It's always a disaster. Long story short, I went for a balayage a month ago and wanted some blended with the root (on my natural ashy brown hair) highlights in the frontal part as I started having gray hair. I ended up with colored roots (which now seem more golden brown than they should) and of course, to top it off - a brassy look from start to finish after just the first wash. (I use a purple shampoo from Kerastase, and even bought a purple mask from Lakme). Sorry for that long intro! I'd appreciate your answer! All best!

Hey! Do you do salon education? I live in north Sacramento and we are looking for a color class and would love for you to teach the salon.

[@janetmarczyk7323]

Love all your tips!!

[@Christina-vy3mh]

I just had a balayage done but it didn't look orange when she first did.. it's a week and my hair looks orange like the first picture you just showed.. can I put the purple shampoo in it.. to get that blond how she first did my hair

[@seekthetruth1485]

Toner always ruins my color...it turns it a dull red...why is that? I can have highlights look great for a month, and then bam all of my hair dulls out. Are they not lifting it high enough? It has been 6 years now, and no one seems to be able to fix the issue, so I stopped having my hair done. I miss my BLOND hair...Please help!

[@vikimerjos147]

Hi thank you for your video on your last tip about coloring your roots what can you do to prevent that going brassy?

[@jaim6580]

I’m taking this whole video to my stylist. Lol

[@mikaela12medina]

💕💕 love your videos ! Thank you

[@kaitlinhuddle8405]

I’ve watched most of your videos including others. I’ve been a blonde for most of my life and recently had to move and switch hairstylist. My highlights weren’t left in long enough so they were super yellow. She never replied to my text so I tried your hilight with 20v. Just a forewarning it turned my roots and dimension pieces bright orange! Suggesting a 10v??

[@jerennyjerry3081]

My hair turn into orange/red aftr bleach . Wht shld i do?

[@johanazelaya3727]

Silvia, I have a question, I have been lightening my own hair, this is my 5th time using bleach. I had box dyed level 4 hair and when I first “balayaged” I used 20 dev, which I later realized I should’ve used 30. I have done baby lights and more balayage since, I dye my roots every 4 weeks bc I have a LOT of grays, but my hair never ends up the blonde I want. What am I during wrong? I used redken 9T, 9V and clear and my tone of hair still looks a bit orange/yellow. HELP!!!

[@lf9341]

Go to a hair stylist. Very hard to get brass out. You need to at least be a 9 or 10 for that to work.

[@katttham]

How do I tone down a platinum hair color to an ashy color without giving it that blue tone? . I recently did my roots. But she left the bleach on for too long. Toned it and got a platinum color which is too light for me.

[@rachaelcloud7334]

So how do you get the base color light after you lighten the first time? You said for darker hair what gets the warm golden color after applying the ash tone and a couple weeks it starts going to unwanted warm tones.. is there a way to get the base not to do that? Or do I have to go back every few weeks to get rid of those unwanted warm tones? Dark hair level 2n/3n trying to do a blonde/ash tone balayage. Wanna keep my roots dark

[@noneya9481]

Awesome video! How do you get ride of the warm base tones after highlights and roots grown in
