[@ImAMann929]

The way you explain everything is perfect! What a great way to do that

[@fkoff0407]

U just boosted my confidence so I can do this to my regrowth. Thanks

[@EdensEarth]

Simple and precise technique! 😍 I was gifted a blonde wig that’s just waaaayyy too blonde for me and instead of giving it away I’ll try this method so it looks more natural! Thank you! 😃

[@luaneketcherd7996]

More videos like this one! Your work is amazing 👌

[@debrahswamber2232]

Really great technique, thanks for sharing.

[@jessimolina2330]

What product can be used to smudge dark brown roots and blonde?

[@cindysayavong8513]

Root smudge for dummies!!! Just what I needed, thank you!

[@RyanWeeden]

Glad you like it!! It’s always my Go-To!

[@odalysruiz4]

I have a client that's been bleaching and toning platinum. Against my professional advice she's been getting smoothing treatments.She wants lowlites and depth. I'm thinking of using igora vibrance on roots and another color on the lowlites. Any suggestions on the formula???

[@odalysruiz4]

Great video ty! 🙏🏼♥️😘

[@WLottie1]

Hi Ryan, the consistency of your toner looks almost like a "gel". What is the difference between this and a traditional cream toner mixed with developer? Does this make application easier or create more saturation? What would happen if this whole application was done on dry hair? Looks amazing!

[@Kenzingo]

Never recommended to put toner on dry hair

[@ASMRyouVEGANyet]

@@Kenzingoi do it and it's fine. I have asked several colorists and they said it's fine

[@avril.227]

Any tips to prevent bleeding when dragging it down? Thank you

[@letgall85]

Apply conditioner to the ends

Thanks for sharing ❤️

[@CottontailCorner]

Amazing thank you I’ll be trying it

[@rebekah3426]

would you do the same kind of application on a bleached level 10 all over color? she is looking to grow out her natural hair color.

[@meredinkles]

Rebecca Kelley I bleached to level 10 and did this a couple days ago so i could grow out my natural color. I used clairol natural instincts, and if you do too i'd recommend you go a level or 2 darker than her natural hair. My natural hair is a level 4 or 5 and it showed up on my head as a reddish 6.

[@jessicacorson2040]

What formula did you use on her?

[@windsyDschultz]

That looks like a level 5 ash blonde

[@Bmwbaybe]

Thank you for this vid!

[@randolphhagan926]

Do you rinse out the root shadow before toning ?

[@erinellis9213]

I was wondering the same thing.

[@plantsarecool3828]

Yes

[@pamelac7891]

How do you keep the root color from spotting on the blonde hair? Thank you

[@Kenzingo]

By following these instructions

[@ancaas7945]

Wash off with cold water.

[@rinadmaram604]

Ur video was so helpful... Thank u so much...

[@leenelson6976]

can I use shades eq for a shadow root done on gray/white hair that's been highlighted to a.level 9/10?

[@RyanWeeden]

@@leenelson6976 Yes, but it may only blend the gray, it won’t cover it fully. You would need a permanent gray coverage color for that.

[@tm5346]

I enjoyed it quick into the point

[@SueWho_00]

I totally screwed it up~Look so easy : (( O'well look's better than what I had : )) Thank's Ryan

[@luelladeville1708]

What mix colour and vol did you use?

[@RyanWeeden]

@@luelladeville1708 when choosing a root shadow, I always pick a demi-permanent color that is between 1/2 - 1 level lighter so it shadows the highlights, without covering. So if the base color was 6, I’d choose a 6.5 or 7 Demi so it fades nicely.

[@Lovepinkx]

hi! i was just wondering would it be better to add a shadow root before my tape in extensions are applied or after?

[@Kenzingo]

Before

[@fennmctemoic]

Wat I'd its orange,yellow level 7 and u want a natural brown back, would u use ash or natural, an the bottom of the hair is blonde,

[@tatylete]

Hola, si quiero oscurecer todo mi cabello rubio, debo empezar por las raíces o puntas?

[@RyanWeeden]

¿Eres un estilista?

[@tatylete]

@@RyanWeeden No 😔

[@tatylete]

Me encantaría ser estilista

[@RyanWeeden]

Es difícil oscurecer el cabello, así que no recomendaría hacerlo tú mismo. Recomiendo hablar con un estilista. Si lo haces en casa, el color podría ser desigual y difícil de arreglar o aclarar en el futuro.

[@mitityuk18]

So do you apply toner over the color or you rinse the color then apply toner?

[@123xsinead]

Rinse then tone x

[@amamuffin]

Vvv nice Tysm

[@bodyjewels]

What products and color did you use on her

[@RyanWeeden]

Cynthia Lopresti For the toot shadow, I used Wella Color Touch 7/71 + 6vol, and for the Toner I used Redken Shades 20ml (9P) + 20ml (clear) + 40ml (processing solution).

So scared to try this but my hair looks like shit without a root smudge lol

[@carranza2789]

Do it !!!! It looks sooooooo good so worth it thank you so much

[@h.v.8200]

Amateurs, please use gloves for dye and toner. These are nasty chemicals.

[@HarmlessComment]

Mind your business 🙃

[@ASMRyouVEGANyet]

@@HarmlessComment you definitely should use gloves, because they ARE nasty chemicals
