Toner / semi-permanent colour

Colour refresh without strong chemicals – it coats the hair rather than lightening it.

A toner or semi-permanent colour wraps pigment around the hair without strongly changing its structure. It can refresh colour, neutralise brassiness or shift tones – it cannot lighten.

Longevity:

Depending on the product, toners wash out gradually over several weeks and leave no harsh regrowth line. That makes them popular as a refresh between appointments, after bleaching (gloss/toner) or to test a direction before committing to permanent colour.
