If you dyed your hair blonde or bleach it, it turned out yellow, no worries.If you have red or orange hair, you can easily tone it to get the ash blonde color you want.If you want a more permanent solution, try a developer or purple hair.You can use items in your pantry to make your own toners and rinses.I wish you good luck!
Step 1: Depending on the color of your hair, choose the right toner.
Look at the color of your hair.Pick a purple toner if it is the color of a banana.If it has an orange tint, use a blue violet toner.You can buy it at a beauty supply store.
Step 2: There is a mix of 1 part.
A bottle of toner is put into the bowl with a developer next to it.Stir the 2 products together with a whisk or spoon.You can combine the chemicals using a whisk.The developer can be purchased from either a beauty supply store or online retailer.People with long hair may need to use more than one bottle of the same product.The amount of developer should be adjusted based on the 2:1 ratio.If your hair is damaged or fragile, use a 10 volume developer.It is a little softer on your hair, but weaker, so it won't last as long.
Step 3: You can split your hair into sections.
Divide your hair into ear to ear sections with a comb.Either clip or tie it.Pull the top of your hair down the middle and clip or tie the other two sections.If you have longer or thicker hair, you might want to split the back of your hair into 2 different sections.This will make sure you don't end up with patchy hair.
Step 4: The mixture should be applied at your roots.
Once the mixture is combined, massage it onto your head, working it from the roots through to the ends of your hair.Continue until your strands are completely saturated.If you have sensitive skin, always wear plastic or latex gloves.
Step 5: If you want to check it often, leave the toner on for up to 30 minutes.
Look on the back of your package for a specific time to let it soak.When your hair has reached your desired ash color, wipe a few strands with a towel every 5 to 10 minutes.The mixture should sit for no more than 30 minutes.If you leave it on too long, you will end up with lavender or gray hair.
Step 6: After rinsing your hair with water, condition it as usual.
Run your head under any temperature water to remove the developer after the time is up.After applying the color-safe conditioner of your choice, rinse as you normally would.If you use a color-safe conditioner, you'll keep it from fading quickly.It's a good idea to use a hair mask or conditioner after you tone your hair.
Step 7: To get rid of tangles, comb your hair.
If you want to remove loose strands from your hair, run a comb through it.Don't tug at knots, but instead gently comb, starting at the end of the hair and making your way up to the root.If you have thick or coarse hair, use a wide tooth comb.If you have thin hair, you can use a tooth comb.
Step 8: Divide your hair into 3 separate parts.
Put your comb in a horizontal line across the back of your head.The bottom half should be tied into one section.2 more sections can be formed by cutting the hair on the top of your head down the middle.If you have long hair, you can divide it up into more sections, for example you could do 2 at the front and 3 in the back.
Step 9: Start at the roots and work your way all the way to the ends.
If you have yellow sections towards the back of your hair, begin putting the shampoo on your roots first.Pull the shampoo through to your ends until your head is covered.If you want to saturate all of the strands, massage the shampoo into your hair.You can unclip or release the sections you created as you work.
Step 10: It is a good idea to let the shampoo sit on your hair for 5 to 10 minutes.
If you want to get rid of the yellow in your hair, let it sit for a while.If you have long or thicker hair, leave the cleanser on for 10 minutes.Put your hair on top of your head and clip it in place while you wait.
Step 11: Bring the water to rinse out the hair product.
You can remove the product from your hair by running it under water.The purple shampoo is gone when the water runs clear.You can use any temperature of water.
Step 12: For best results, repeat once a week.
You can keep the yellow out of your hair by using purple shampoo.On average, it will last for 3 to 4 washes.If you notice that your hair is turning yellow more often, you can use the purple shampoo twice a week.
Step 13: If you want to add shine, you can use hydrogen peroxide.
Put equal parts hydrogen peroxide, water, and hair conditioner in a spray bottle.The mixture should be put on damp hair.Leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing.This rinse should be done once a week for the best results.Even though hydrogen peroxide is effective for removing yellow from your hair, it's also a chemical that lightens your color every time you use it.
Step 14: If you want to clarify your hair, do a rinse.
In a small bowl, put 2 cups of water and 2 teacups of white vinegar.The mixture should be applied all over wet hair.After 15 minutes, rinse it with water and conditioning.It also gets rid of product build up and oil.If you leave the vinegar on for more than 15 minutes, it can be very harmful to your hair.
Step 15: Food coloring can be used to make your own purple toner.
If you don't have purple hair, you can mix up your own version by combining 2.5 cups of white vinegar, 10 drops of blue food coloring, and 3 to 4 drops in a bowl.Allow it to sit for 10 seconds before rinsing with water.If you don't want your hair to smell like vinegar, wash it with a cleanser and conditioner after the rinse.If you have a lot of red hair, use more blue food coloring.
