Consider the formula. At-home toner options include rinses, drops, sprays, glosses and purple shampoos, but Friedman prefers toning conditioners, treatments and masks for their added moisturizing benefits.

When you choose to do a fashion shade, Roussel reminds us that it can bring out a personality you never knew you had. “Pink shades and purples are much smoother to transition. These shades usually turn into over-toned blondes and rose golds.” Adding more bleach for the correct amount of time (at the pink stage, this will be about 30 minutes) will get your hair to the yellow base you initially tried to get. Once you do this, you will be left with yellow hair (that may still have some pink undertones), so you will need to go to the next step, which is toner. Okay, if you're one for totally easy hair dying, a hair mask is the perfect option so you don't have to faff around with all the dye. Just slap it on wet hair and leave for five minutes to see the mask work its magic. It will fade in eight washes - or you can keep reapplying it for continuous pinkness. For the uninitiated, let Aveda's Advanced Creative Director, Bruno Ellorrioroz, answers the all-important questions about hair toner, including how it works and which shade to go for... What is hair toner and how does it work? Tip 2: "Do a test piece on your hair, take a section from underneath where it won’t be as noticeable if your results come out not as you desired."

Fixing Hair That Turned Pink After Bleaching

Meri Kate O'Connor is a Los Angeles and New York City-based hairstylist at Cooper Weho salon in West Hollywood, CA. O'Connor is a colorist, stylist, and hair extension expert. The thing we love about this dye from Schwarzkopf is that you can get a super vibrant colour or a pastel pink - all that matters is the development time. Lasts up to 12-15 washes. Review:"I adore this colour! It isn't the longest lasting but I've been using it for a couple of months now and my hair is bleached underneath so it is slowly staying longer. Really nice peach tones which I love. Easy to apply. One of the bottles is huge with very little content which seems pointless. But it's a lovely product. Not damaging on hair at all." Pay attention when you are applying the toner. At this point, you’re using it on bleached, light pink hair. There is green in it, and your hair is fair. If you leave it on too long, you will turn your hair green. Only use the green shampoo like you would any shampoo to avoid green hair. Tried and tested, Jade Moscrop, Deputy Commercial Content Editor:"I swear by this shampoo and conditioner. After dyeing my hair pink, I use this whenever it starts to fade, leave it on for a few minutes (longer if I'm in the bath) and it's like my hair has been freshly dyed once more. Love it."

All you need to do is crush between 5-10 tablets until you have a fine powder. A pestle and mortar are best for this, or you can use a spoon. Add a little bit of anti-dandruff shampoo to create a paste, and apply to the areas of your hair you wish to remove. Obviously, you'll need more if it's your whole head.

Does hair toner damage your hair?

We’ll explain what that means here. If you've had enough of being 'the friend with pink hair' or just fancy a change, there are ways to remove hair dye without using bleach.

This dark to bright pink ombre hairstyle is bold yet minimal. It was created by hairstylist Cody A. Roussel of Prairieville, LA. “The juxtaposition of the bright neon at the base blends with baby pink. All while the pastel gives the blunt bob softness,” says Roussel.During summer, be careful of the effects of sun on your hair.
