Using Purple-Based Toners to Go Blonde

If your client has unwanted brassiness or yellow undertones in their hair after bleaching, it is a good idea to tone the hair with purple based blonde colors. Purple-based toners are excellent at neutralizing these yellow blonde tones, leaving you with a beautiful, cool-toned blonde hair color. 

How Purple Toners Work on Yellow Hair: The Color Wheel.

Purple and yellow are complementary colors on the color wheel. This means that purple-based toners can counteract the yellow tones that often appear when lightening hair. When applied to blonde hair, purple-based toners work by depositing a small amount of purple pigment, neutralizing the unwanted yellow or brassy hues.

The different types are given below in descending degree of lift and power
