Will Toner help my at home dye-job that turned reddish which was supposed to put ash in my hair?

I've been dying my hair lately at home because I've been dissatisfied with colorists who never could get the red out of my hair, even after more than a year later. I had one stylist make my hair burgandy and then brighter red with crazy highlights of blonde and pink. She never told me that red was almost impossible to get rid of.



My hair is naturally near to medium ashy brown with blondish/ reddish natural highlights. I permanently dyed my hair with dark ashy brown and that pretty much worked but then the red started showing over the weeks. I recently dyed it medium ash brown and it is even more red than before.



WHAT DO I DO?? I hate the red. I don't want a mahogany brown color! Will a toner help me?? Should I stick to non-permanent color? Originally, I started coloring my hair because I have premature graying hair (well, actually-only white!). My first colorist never told me in the beginning that she was putting permanent color in my hair! I'm not going back to the salon.

ok at home color is very scary. if you have another color on your hair and you put another color on you are just layering color after color. color won't lift color. a toner could help, but you should do it professionally other wise you will end up with a huge mess. color has a base tone. if you want to get ride of red you need a green base. you might have to mix a few colors so that you will get it right. the developer has a lot do do with how your hair turns out. in box kits your get 20 and it will lift when you want to deposit.

A toner could help, but I would go to a salon to get it done. Green neutralizes red, so they're going to have to find a toner that has a green tint to it. I wouldnt recommend trying to do that on your own, your hair could turn a weird color.

I am a natural blonde, but sometimes in the winter it goes a light brown shade. If I dye my hair an ash blonde/ brown, I use a purple toner. (some call it blue/purple) This definitely takes the red and brassy tones out of your hair. I use it once a week to make sure the sun hasn't made my hair brassy. Even when I haven't dyed my hair. I also have a leave in conditioner for light hair which helps tone down the red/brassy shades.



Hope this helps
