ICY BLONDE TONER BATTLE! All you need to know to create PLATINUM hair color, regardless of brand.

Thank you!!! I have white/silver and recently due to using toners -- I used Ion snow cap (turn my white hair ashy grey), and tried icy white (turned my white hair cornflower blue) / used 20 vol on both. Due to I hated both colors, I had to try and go to the highest neutral blonde lift possible. It came out nice, but I loved the white/silver that was natural - now I seem to get yellow very fast, even though I use a purple shampoo (maybe it is my hard water)? I recently used Age Beautiful Top Coat Toner Pearl Blonde. Worked well, reduced the yellow in the places with it and made my silver/white brighter. I think I will try your Redken solution next. I do not want any ash in my hair. I love the white/silver look. If you have any advice, it is more than welcome. I am naturally a level 10. Thankful I found your video on this topic. Thanks again.

Good job love the explanation

No schwarzkopf?

hi hiii, thanks for the video!! Do you only apply the k18 products before & after bleaching? you're not using olaplex no 1 & 2? Can I ask why 🥹🥹? Thank u 🫶

I use 10/6 wella and i can never get an icy result not sure if im not bleaching light enough or the porosity of my hair but its so disappointing cause I feel like im so close but then it takes a turn

Literally ran out and bought the Wella 10/6. I really wanted to try the Wella T18 but I believe it's a much stronger formula due to the ammonia in it and it's a permanent hair color...not sure if that even matters lol (not a professional lol) I'm going to try the 10/6 next week. Thanks!

Oh My god. You're splendid! I really love the way you teach. You are not only an expert, but also a good teacher.

Do you know of any really
Good purple shampoos and conditioners that will keep the icy look in between toning sessions? I’ve been experimenting with a few (tried three different brands) and just haven’t found the right one yet!

For highlights that you want to tone, sometimes I hate the tiny amount of shift you get on the natural hair, so any ideas for what direct dye to use for that icy pale look.

My question is. What’s best for black hair. Specifically chocolate women hair that’s natural and semi wavy curly n corse

I 💟 Icy Blonde

I use shades EQ, and I find I’m often getting a dingy ashy look on my level 9’s. But I will admit I’m not using a 09v alone because I’ve always been afraid of getting to much violet. So I tend to add 09P too. Have you struggled in the past with the constant concern of the end result being dingy and not a beautiful ashy blonde? Any suggestions on how to be more confident when toning to that beautiful ashy color with shades EQ?

Do you ever work with high porosity hair to adjust the toner?

Wow! Superb!👏👏

Brilliant! Thank you. ❤ I find the hard part is to deal with uneven porosity. Getting that canvas even can be a struggle.

what's your opinion about toning bleached hair (level 9-10) with permanent colour and low volume (3.5vol) peroxide? for example igora royal 10.21 + 3.5vol h2o2?

Hi Craig, have you tried wellashinefinity? Wondering what your thoughts are on it? Do you prefer wella colour touch for toner? Thank you

Okay....yeah...I'm going to admit that, although I was able to do a pretty fantabulous DIY light blonde on myself, I've NEVER been successful in my attempts to take my light blonde to an ICY blonde. SO frustrating! My natural color is a 2, with GOD-AWFUL red undertones which I have to fight off like the dickens...Maybe THAT's why I've had major issues going icy?? 😕

You are so handsome 💔 thank you so much for your videos!

Hi Craig, i have a k18 question - was gifted a bottle of the k18 treatment and a bottle of Living proof triple bond treatment. Could i consider a wash routine where i follow up my k18 application with a pump of the living proof after the 5 minute mark? Would it be a protein overload or would it make the hair brittle?

Why didn't you use pravana platinum toner

This makes me feel like Meg Ryan ‘YES YES YES’ (I know you know the quote 😂)

Finally catching up with this now I'm back from holiday. Panicked at 14 minutes in as I came back to yellow af hair from the sun and pool and I was currently sat with 010p on my hair. Came out ok though ha.

How would you go about toning icy results like this in multi-tonal hair? I find the highlights come out great, and fresh lowlights done with an ash based dye do as well, but then I'm left with warmth in the base (level 8 & 9).

Beautiful

Thank you again Craig and I love your content! I'm new to the shades EQ family I am a retired cosmetologist and now working on coloring a human hair wig. Do you have any information regarding human hair wigs? I would love a level 8 to 8 1/2 shadow root,
And keeping the long bright ends at the level 10 Palest yellow that they currently are

Hi Craig.. absolutely FAB U LOUS your like Harry Potter of the colour world your just a wizard😉😃 thanks a million the colour touch is a must try as have the perfect client in mind👏🏼❤️ thanks Craig 😘

All makes total sense, thanks 😊
