I've always been skeptical with this because I've seen it go very wrong in the salon causing orange roots. I watched this video 124 times and finally convinced myself to try it. It worked BEAUTIFULLY! I am actually a level 4 with 25% gray. I just used 20 vol and P and as soon as I started to see it lift I washed it off. It broke my base beautifully and softend it so nice. My blonde is so bright and it evened out some bands I had in there as well. Thank you for sharing ❤
Does 2 parts mean 2 big bottles of developer? I only got 1. I feel super silly but I don't know what she means by 1 part and 2 parts 😔😔😔
@@UFTrici it's a ratio 1:2 so 1 part color 2 parts developer like one ounce of color 2 ounces of developer
@rosecapudo9235 thank you babe!!
DO IT ! Worked perfect on my already blonde highlights and sandy blonde roots ! Mixed everything together and got ride of the yellow/orange tones. I really recommend doing this. Thanks a lot Elle ! (Also it didn’t damaged my hair)
@Zoé Brochier Did you color your virgin roots too? And did they turn orange?
What if my roots are dark brown. Could I just avoid the roots?
On my way to Sally's as I read the comments 😂😂😂😭😭😭😁

Just did this!! I did 15 min and my blonde is beautiful and icy!! It TOTALLY blended my roots and it just what I need in between highlights!
What did u buy
Are your roots dark brown?
What is this lift called or the numbers? Where can I find it.
I did this!! Thank you soooooo much Sylvia!!!! My hair turned out fabulous.
I only have access to Sally's so I used half an ounce of AGE Beautiful (Zotos) High Lift color in HLN -Neutral Bonde, half an ounce of the same brand in HLA - Ash Blonde and two ounces of 20 volume developer. Left it on for 15 minutes as per your instructions and it came out FANTASTIC! I know my hair pulls red so I would say that if anyone else would like to try this I would first go with just HLN because if your ends are super porous they might come out a little to ashy with my combo.
I usually get a bit of brassiness and dullness at about 6 weeks after my last professional color and hi-light. Like you said, it just gave me shine and a *fresher* color. Somehow the roots are blending a little more too even though they didn't lift. I think this will enable me to go longer between professional visits and give me the little lift I need. Many thanks again to you Sylvia!
+RangerMommy I don't know if you will see this, but I wanted to tell you that I followed exactly what you said here and got these products from Sally's. I did my hair yesterday before I set out for my husband's work Christmas party and it worked very well. I've had my hair blonde using a box of Revlon's Age Defy color but it was looking a little tired, dry, and brassy. Now it looks softer, blonder, lighter, healthier. It worked perfectly and I love it. Thanks to you and Sylvia!
+sunsun2000able It's so funny, I was just watching Silvia's video again because I'm about to do this again right now and there was your comment! You are brave taking this on the day of your husband's Christmas party! I'm glad the products worked out for you. Have a great holiday season!
I'm about to do the same exact thing too! Just went and got the same colors from Sally's. I think I'm going to do mine a section at a time. First time for highlighting at home and I'm a tad nervous I'll be far slower than the color. Anyway, thanks for pointing out these exact items. SO many of us just go to Sally's:)
Susanne - RangerMommy @
Susanne - RangerMommy hi! You did it on wet or dry hair, my dear?
This worked wonders on my hair, I've bleached and toned several times and it still looked very dull so I had the idea of putting a white color on it. I saw your video, got the color today, except I mixed the high lift Ash blonde with the high lift cool blonde and it came out this beautiful platinum/white blonde hair I haven't had in months. Thank you!!!

Most articles out there say not to do this on hair that’s already bleached. I’m so glad I didn’t listen and gave it a try anyways. It brightened up my treated blond hair so much! And without causing any damage. Thank you for suggesting this
you're definitely the most humble and the prettiest hair-helper for us on internet! it's always so easy to listen and understand you, you're always getting to the core of the point and very very helpful..thanks a lot for all your time and effort..:)
OK, I just went ahead and DID IT!! I was hoping for a reply from you about my situation but no reply- it's OK! I was expecting the worst! I have dark blonde hair (level 6-7 naturally) and it's bleach foiled pretty heavily... anyway, the lengths were looking blah like dull, darker/brassy and purple shampoo wasn't helping. It felt like I needed to go through it with more bleach but I saw your tutorial and heard you say NOT to bleach over bleach (I didn't think that'd be a good idea).... so I bought some high lift color from sally's, 20 developer and went for it!! I have had other stylists try and "break the base" to make the regrowth not look so harsh and it never worked for me- it always turned my roots super orangey and nasty so I was always against breaking the base, but like you said, if you use 20 volume only, you won't get the orangey hot roots, just get enough lift to where your roots don't look so dark- but NO ORANGE!! I am so excited, and my dingey looking lengths look brighter now! Oh, man I am so grateful I found your channel- and another thing- why can't all stylists be as knowledgeable as YOU??? It seems like every single stylist I have gone to for color lately has been absolutely CLUELESS and has not been able to give me what I want despite taking photos in.... they just seem so clueless. It's cost me a lot of money and a lot of breakage!!!! Thank you so much!!!
YES girl I'm in the same situation. I've been wanting a more platinum balayage, I have virgin level 5 hair so you would think that would be simple to do, but now 600$ later i have just golden highlights! And I'm so pissed because I've gone to 2 different high end salons In the last 2 years and they apparently cant do what I want! So I'm going to try this. Hopefully successfully so I dont ruin my 600$ shit hair job lol
UPDATE: Went to the salon store and chatted with the manager and I told her what I was thinking of doing. I showed her the video, and she was like wow I'm glad you asked me because you almost ruined your hair. She had me just get a toner because she said the high lift would lift my existing dark hair parts and it would be all mismatched!
Kristen did you foil or just put it on like a mask??? Thank you going to try to do this ASAP
Kristen which lifter you bought at Sally’s? I went to the website to buy the one she recommends, but I don’t see it. When I went to Sally’s they didn’t have 11A lifters
@@vivianseda .. Silvia always uses a 12A or 12N may have 12NA as well
AH oh my gosh I JUST DID THIS AND WOW! I purchased the same stuff just a different color cool blonde and I thought my roots looks orange but once I blow dried it out it’s perfect color! My highlights are brighter!
Do you put it all over your hair? Like you would dye your whole head? I
Selena Walck I did and I talked to my hair stylist and she said no matter what developer you use it will change your hair color because it is a permanent color that dyes the hair. I have a lot of highlights and underneath is dark brown. I used it on my whole head for 20 minutes and my roots changed to from a dark brown to a lighter blonde which is fine because you could hardly tell the change of the highlights so I did like the change. But I also bought naissant blonde pearl to help keep the color light and it helped too.
I just did this with a 30 V Because as that’s all I had and my Chi highlift said use 1:1 ratio (vs 1:2), so that is what I did. It’s still damp but I’m loving results!! I only did a few stripes for test I am going to go back in when it dries and hit my whole head. For reference: I’m naturally level 4 w/heavily bleached highlights level 8 to 9/10 thru mids/ends with level 6 perm. color on my roots to Cover gray (A lot going on!). My mids/ends are now super bright & feel healthy! I also tapped a little bit on my roots & it blends the darker 6 with the highlights much better . (coronavirus quarantine experiments lol)
Thanks Sylvia!
Hey did this leave your roots orangey at all? I have bleached hair all over (mix of level 8-10) and I have level 4 root regrowth... should I apply to my roots too?
This saved my hair!! I used the 20 developer with 12n high lift and 12 ash high lift. Left it on for 20 min. My hair is so much brighter. Just what I wanted. Thank you!!
Hi Leebee - I asked Silvia if the hilift 12 with 20 (since she mentions 11) gave you the same buttery color that she has. And your comment answered my question. Did you mix the 12n and 12a? And you're happy with the result? Was your hair pretty blond?
Thank you!!!!
FaithFitHealth Hi. I hope you get this message because I need to do my hair and it is the same as you described.. I wanted to know if youed use the chi brand as she did in the video or a different brand. Please I hope you get this message thanks
what level was your hair?
I used Agebeautiful HLA-Ash blonde with 20 volume in lieu of not finding the Chi Iconic 11A. I had I 4N roots and light reddish brown (brassy) hair with dark to medium (brassy) blonde highlights. It turned out surprisingly well. Mind you I'm correcting my hair after I paid over $300 for balayage retouch. The stylist lifted me to level 9 on ends and level 7 on balayage retouch. My brown hair that wasn't highlighted turn light reddish brown. I was so tempted to dye my hair dark brown and give up on finding a solution to my haircolor nightmare. That was until I found your video and decided to take a chance. OMG! Thank you so damn much!!
I still have some brass on the light brown hair, but nothing like the nightmare I had before. The blonde is golden and buttery, no more brass. My dark roots are still brown with zero orange and no hot roots. Thank you so much ❤.
Thank you so much for this video. I used Beach Baby High Lift color 11 Natural Blonde with 20 developer and my results were amazing. It took my boring medium blonde ighlighted hair to a beautiful pale blonde. Even my root shade which was dark ash blonde is a beautiful neutral blonde now. Please keep making these tutorials. They are priceless for those of us who are constantly on the lookout for hair ideas.
How did you apply it?
Like root to end ?
Girls, do not be afraid! Use this method!
Thank you so much for such great tricks! Thanks to your video, I realized what I need for my orange-yellow-dirty color. Earlier I toned my hair with colors 9.5-4 Igora Royal and 9.22 Farma Vita after bleaching. At first it was not bad, but then it became dirty. Now I write what I did yesterday (I am not a professional!). My base on level 7 and the roots had grown about 1 cm, so I decided to lighten them and to use 12% peroxide on roots. I used Wella Koleston 12.16 (special blonde ash-violet) with 12% on the roots, and then (according to the instructions to the paint) wet the hair and emulsified color over the whole length and left it for 10 minutes. My way is somewhat different from what you advised, but I was inspired by your video. Basic length looks great on the tone lighter, shiny and beautiful natural color at 10 without yellowness. The only negative thing is a little orangey roots. Now I think maybe to use 9% oxidant instead of 12% to my roots the next time, would it remove orange or to buy the Special Blonde with a high content of ash or blue (ask subscribers, can someone faced such problem)?
P.S. Of course 12% is too much for bleached and toned hair, even on wet hair, so I will not risk again =) Thank you again for such great videos! You look gorgeous!
I've experienced the same thing when I dyed my roots(level6) with hi lift pearl blonde (11.8) and used 30 vol (9%) and came out not so bright as the rest of my hair and a bit worm. I advised to up the peroxide and use half 9% and half 12%. They also advised me to use some type of heat (not direct hair drier though). I used heat cap and got the results I wanted. Heat accelerates lightening.
I did this technique to a client yesterday. Amazing results. Thank you.
I love that you said you ask for a picture and want to know hair goals. Iv actually not gone to a hairdresser for most of my life because at early ages I'd have an over baring woman tell me my hair should be brown. I don't suit brown hair. One time I had to walk out because she was actually arguing with me. Iv done hair myself so I know I can be blonde safely. I wish I could find a hairdresser like you. Also thanks for the tip ☺️
Just to add whenever I show a picture they say 'you won't look like that you know' 😂
If someone told me I should only have brown hair (my natural hair color is a very dull brown), I'd get up and walk the F-out.. It's NOT a stylist job to over-ride what you want done to your hair! Be strong and find someone else who will listen to you. For every jerk stylist, there are at least 5 out there who are not. It sounds like she was probably bad at highlighting hair and was trying to cover her butt.
Totally agree! I did it and it worked reaaaaally great! Even on my 3 times bleached damage hair. Thank you Elle!!!!
How long did you wait after bleaching your hair to dye it with the highlift? I just bought a highlift dye from Schwarzkopf and 30vol developer but I'm terrified of breakage!
@@vvv7698should wait at least 14 days after any color service to use a hi lift
so I did this with level 12 since I couldn't find 11. It worked well but I had to watch that my hair wasn't turning too blueish or gray. But then I found 11a and 11n online at Sally's (one n only argan, I think) and I did it this morning and....I LOVE IT! Silvia - I cannot thank you enough for all these hair tutorials! People say my hair has never looked better and it's all because of your vidz! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!
Aw this makes me so proud! Your welcome! So happy for you!
ellebangs ... hi can i do this if i have full highlights and my roots came out ? Im an 8 my natural hair color will it mame my highlights glow again and be whiter? And will my roots go orange? Will i need to tone them after?? And if so will purple shampoo work for my roots?
PopPeacock Blog did you apply it to your entire hair?
PopPeacock Blog yes, she is very informative nd explains everything. Especially when she said color does not lift color. Like dying hair purple to lift. Smh no... this is the next step I need after one more olaplex bleach treatment I’m a level 7 trying to get to a 8/9.

You made my day so much better. It always lifts my energy when I see acts of kindness because they are so far and few in-between anymore. Thank you so much you are a beautiful woman with a kind heart and soul I will think amazing thoughts of you while I do my meditations today and I pray that something wonderful happens in your life for you. You and everyone reading this are so loved by me. Everyone have an amazing day.
hi I did this with sallys ion high lift ultra light ash blonde on my yellow bleached hair and it worked better than any toner I've tried! it also really conditioned my hair and isn't too ashy which I prefer! thank you xo
L Mcmoney what developer percentage did you use?
My hair's multi colors. Blond, pale orange, light brown, & silver. Sally's recommended ions cool blond high lift. Bc I guess they hafta be students to work there? The mgr ( I guess that's who she was ) said she tried this on another person w/ the same problem & she said it worked. Why do ppl say to not use high lifts on dyed hair for? 🤔
What color did you end up with?
What products did she use in the video?
L Mcmoney same here, only found ion, but which #you did. I bought 10 and 12 because can’t decide what will work for me
Yes! This works! I actually tried this two days ago and love my results. Plus it did not damage my hair. It added a lot of brightness to my blonde and will absolutely continue to do this! Thank you so much!
Does 2 parts mean 2 big bottles of developer? I only got 1. I feel super silly but I don't know what she means by 1 part and 2 parts 😔😔😔
@@UFTriciso if you use 1 scoop of colour 2 scoops of developer. 10gms of color then 20 gms/ml developer. Hope this helps
You just nailed my exact problem! No amount of highlights seems to get it bright enough. Will try to hunt down high lift colours in the uk :) thanks!
Thank you so much! I used a High lift Violet shade because Ash sometimes turns green-ish, and it gave me the exact shade of blonde I was looking for, it removed most of the brassiness as well!
OMG!! I so agree with Kristen below, I actually took time out of my work day just to come back to this video and comment. I have all over highlights and wasn't very happy with these results. Not to mention that I spent alot of money and had lots of breakage. Anyway, I was hesitant to do this but since no hairdresser would touch my hair and I just wasn't happy, I went and bought Ion Demi Lightest Ash Blond (I was a bit scared so I went with a gentler version just in case). I applied it to my hair and left it about 10 minutes, again because I was scared. Washed it off and was AMAZED that it had worked. I was like OK, lets pick out the strands that are still brassy and applied the left over to them and OMG!! Thank you so much, AMAZING results!! I can't believe that I could not find a hairdresser that would do this. Thank you for thinking out of the box and not so much like a busy little bee just doing what they're told. .
Lpg 8 same as me ! So tired of spending money and not Getting What I Want! Did it too and it worked so well
Wish I had seen this last week! I just got highlights in my bleach blonde, but like level 7 hair. But now I know what to do in 4-6 weeks to finally get the level 8/9 blonde I want for summer!
I put wen conditioner in the hair color. I put wen on my whole hair before applying hair color on hair. It turned out very conditioning. Wen products are awesome. When I was on chemo I was using wen. It did wonders to my hair. Love the stuff. Even the spray mist is awesome.
Is anyone here in 2019? I just bought these products and I hope it comes out good! I see mostly everyone had good results. If anyone has any tips please let me know! Thank you (:
Thanks Silvia!❤️
Howd it turn out? I'm also thinking about doing this, I recently bleached my hair about 4 times in 2 months and had to cut it from my waist all the way to my shoulders. I actually just today bought two boxes of the L'Oreal natural blond and now I kind of wish that I would have got these colors that she's talking about at Sally Beauty Supply the high lift in 12 and + 12a or 10 and and then toned it afterwards. But, I'm thinking about just dying my hair with the box dye and then toning it afterwards because I have all different toners and also apparently colors that aren't toners from what the lady at Sally's told me, I have T14, T 11, T28, 9NG, 5NW, 6w, and 7nn.. My hairs pretty light but the last time I bleached she suggested using the toners "honey blonde" (can't rememebr the number) and medium intense blonde I think it was called. I think she didnt know what she was talking about because my hair after bleaching it was pretty damaged but not that bad, I used the L'Oreal quick blue I think it's called the one in the bucket from Sally Beauty, with a 30 creme developer and then for the toner I mix those two together and used a 20 developer. However now my roots are like an ashy Sandy grayish blonde if that helps explain it LOL and from about my ears down is a very honey tight blond with almost a tenth of orange in it almost like the picture in this video of the before picture. I want my hair like her after picture but I would like a shadow root. I'm just not sure how to get it or do it myself and I'm pretty impatient and don't really want to wait for my natural hair color to grow out since my natural hair color is like a medium to dark ashy Brown. And since I don't have any friends to help me with this I'm too afraid to try myself to use a darker color and attempt to only dye or tone about 2in of my roots, I would be so scared that I would either go too far down or I would end up getting dark hair dye or toner on the ends of my hair or in the middle if a dripped or if I accidentally touched it to my roots. I'm so frustrated with my hair and want it fixed already but because of the damage I did this last time bleaching and toning it I'm afraid to box dye it and then try to tone it to even it out, and I'm definitely afraid to attempt to bleach it again from my ears down to get rid of this honey looking color and start over with a better toner like t18 and T14 or t18 and t11. I've been doing all of oil treatments as well as the aphogee 2 Step hair masks they have at Sally Beauty. I've been leaving them in overnight and it seems like it's been doing pretty well however I already had to cut my hair from my waist all the way up to the tops of my shoulders and really don't want to have to get it cut any shorter. I'm just not sure at this point what to do to fix my hair to get it to where I want it. I wouldn't even mind not having the shadow root, but I at least want my hair all one shade of blond and I would preferably like it the color of her hair in this video of the after picture since my hair right now from my ears down as more of the before picture and then my roots are very ashy. I'm not sure why the lady at Sally Beauty told me to use the honey blonde toner since I believe that that's what caused it to turn out this orangish color from my ears down since when I poured the toner into the bowl it was pure red it looked like red food coloring, anyway sorry for the long comment I'm just not sure what to do and if anyone could help me out I would greatly appreciate it I do have bleach at home I also have the L'Oreal hi-lift cool Brown which I was going to use to try to do a smudge / Shadow root and then I also have two boxes of the L'Oreal natural blond and then all of the toners that I mentioned which apparently the woman at Sally Beauty told me aren't all toners that some of them are actually color Which I'm not sure what that means. I'm guessing like hair dye? I know this is an old video and I'm super late and nobody will probably even read this entire comment LOL , but hopefully somebody can help me. Thanks guys💕💕🙏💗
Where did you buy it? I wanted to do it as well
So what did you end up doing?? I have bleached mine twice and didn’t leave the bleach long enough apparently and now have some really bright blonde with some yellow/orange/gold. Was thinking I would high loft then tone if needed!
princess32cb did it work??
@@xtracreamxtrasugar4134 OMG that was loooonnngggg
THANK YOU!!!! I am a natural level 7 / 7.5 and I have some grays. I used the a natural High Lift blonde shade and the 20 developer and it worked amazingly. My grays look like highlights and my roots are a nice natural blonde, not orange, as they've been with other box blonde colors. This is so fantastic. I can't thank you enough. This will be my go to from now on.
@Erica Denice what color number was the natural High lift?
What is the name of the other product in the box? Do you know if Sally’s sells it?
Did anyone try this? My hair looks a lot like the before photo and I am very tempted to try it.
True! One thing my hair grows fast!!! But Iwn put That Splatt or The other one? Idk the name oh manic panic
thank you so much for putting that in a clear term. i had been searching all over the net to see if i could use this to slightly lighten already lightened hair.
Thank you soo much! I am a diy person and needed a lift without bleaching as I tend to over bleach and you saved me! I was nervous at first bc I wasn’t sure if it would lighten my low-lights but it did exactly what you said!!!😊😘
That was my question… how do you avoid lifting the lowlights or root?
YAYYY I used "ION color brilliance" in color "HL-B Hi Lift Ash Blonde" and it worked just as you described. I am so happy with the results! I had an ombre and slowly kept bringing it up with highlights and results with gold/orangish tones and now my color is a beautiful ash. I have very thick black hair so once i bleach i have red orange tones, and even after i tone after bleach i am not happy with the results till now! THANK YOU so much for your video i did it exactly how u said to do so. I now save myself about $290 of salon. thank you thank you thank you! You are amazing at what you do!
Hey Rossie! I actually just got the same color you did and I have balayage Highlights so there's still a medium brown throughout my hair and on the top. I was wondering how you applied yours, all over including the top of your head and if so did it change your brown hair? Or did you avoid the darker spots?
+Tracy Willetts hi Tracy and I did apply it all over my hair including the brown strands. It actually lightened my brown hair just a bit nothing dramatically and i Liked how it worked since it toned down my black roots to a brown color
well 20 developer definitely lifts your darkened roots and make them orange... I just did it to my hair
Okay so that is no good idea. Strange, in her discription she says: apply at the roots first then through the hair.
it's not the developer that did it, it's the ammonia in the hair color that did it.
I've been watching some of your videos. I don't do hair, I'm an Aesthetician, but I have been doing my own hair lately.
I had a flood in my basement so my well water and softener turned my lightened blonde hair ORANGE after a shower one day. Just like that I was orange and ugly. I finally with vita c got that out safely. So now I get back from Cosmo prof with UTP platinum and grabbed 20 vol developer . After watching several of these I decided to go for it and I did subscribe too finally. I've been dealing with cancer and addiction recovery for the last year and a half. So far so good. I hope my hair reflects how good I feel on the inside when its done. XOXOXO you are a sweetie keep making these videos !
I'm so thankful I found you😍 so far I have combined this video, the chelate video, the DIY bayalage, and the deep conditioner before and after and came out with the most perfect blonde ever!! my dream color that no one else has been able to give me lol. I also followed your 4 point haircut video on myself and my daughter, beautiful results! thank you so much for sharing all of your knowledge!!
YOU, BABE, SAVED ME. I did bleach for my stubborn golden hair (After removing the red)and it dried it. Ion hi lift dye sucks and dried up because I used 30vol in a desperate move and nothing. I hesitated to try the new Loreal beach babylights hilift dye cause of the ion. After watching this I went with my gut. Since loreal hilift red did my dark virgin hair good, I bought the loreal babylights dye after watching this video. With the 20vol developer and HOLY SMOKES GOODBYE YELLOW DARK GOLD HAIR. thank you thank you thank you!!!!
I just did this and it work y’all!! Thank you so much for this tip and saving me money and time. 💕
Yes indeed , I also have used 30 vol. With HLP and have achieved beautiful blonde color on my brassy haired clients ..act's as a lift & a toner . instead of bleach:)
Got great results with this! Sylvia you are amazing!
I did as she said with 12n (no 11A at Sally's). Got a bit more of a sandy color so I think I will go back and tone with T18 to get more ash. The best part is my dark blonde roots were lifted. Saving me money!!!
I would love to see more tricks for blondes like this!
Also I used the wella color charm brand from Sally's
Thank You ..... I have been doing hair for 40 years and this is the only thing I still struggle with . I am definitely going to give it a try . Very nice of you to share this .
Right video at the right time , i was thinking i would have to bleach my hair . I will biy a highlift now . Thanks so much for sharing :-)
Your hair tutorials are the only tutorials i will ever trust. I'm inloveeee with your hair and i cannot wait to try this out!
Thank u so much for this info, I was able to lighten my color at the ends where it took darker. You're amazing!!
Does 2 parts mean 2 big bottles of developer? I only got 1. I feel super silly but I don't know what she means by 1 part and 2 parts 😔😔😔
@@UFTrici LOL!! I used to think the same thing. 1 part means if you use say 1 oz of color, then you use 2 oz of developer. 1 tbsp color, 2 tbsp developer. If you have the Wella toner, you use 1 bottle of the toner, then fill that bottle twice with developer. It's 1.4 oz of toner and 2.8 oz developer. Whatever you use to measure, its 1 of color with 2 of developer. Good luck.
let me tell you now... im a self taught diy at home and I was on to this but I wanted to hear it again from someone who tried it already.
I took lvl 2-3 to a level 7,8,9 on purpose cause I wanted depth and not just one shade flat color because I wanted the option to play around with toners to achieve different blondes 😍
That worked well for the time but now Im going even lighter, I am going to lift more so that I have more 8's, 9's and some 10's!
I use olaplex religiously as well as deep conditioning and no poos (im a naturally curly gal as well 3a-3b, low density, medium porosity) and I use BlondBrillance lathering toner every other week and all is well.
I have zero breakage and Im loving this blonde life lol
Silvia, you have been a hair angel! You're videos are always so informative and help me get the job done. I really want to try this to my hair but I have about an inch of regrowth and my hair is getting a little brassy...will the roots go brassy with using a hilift color or will the 20 vol keep it from lifting too much like a toner? I don't want to bleach again and want to keep the darker roots through fall and winter to give it a break. Would you recommend this or even a Demi in a 10a to help blend and tone?
Hi , Silvia just did it today ! I wish I could have watched this video a long time ago .. maybe my hair would not be so damaged . I have Gray roots and everytime I retouch them, my highlights become a little like dirty . I used an 11 but I was afraid of letting 15 minutes , took only 10. Lifted up my highlights without messing my 7 root . Thank you your videos are amazing .
T18 and T11 finally corrected my brassy hair. Thank You so much
Just did this yesterday and wowww!!! It looks lighter, brighter and yellow tones gone! 15 minutes processing and bam! Amaaazing! Thank you so much!
Where did u get the product
Sally Beauty supply!
What product color to lighten other than the 20 developer
Forget to say that I have highlights and on the end's they are bleached because I was very blond....thanks again 😊❤
Thank you!, I just did this! I have bleach highlights and have gray, and had colored my roots with wella 7a. Sadly, it has been getting a bit brassier over time. I was thinking of doing more highlights then found this. I went to Sally’s and bought ion 12a and some of their 2 step protection and sealer. I applied it to my roots first, then went back to put it throughout my whole head. It came out great! Much more cool toned blonde and lifted the roots enough to tide me over til next time :). I may even try to just use this on my roots next time they grow in. Thanks again!
How long did you leave it
Just what I needed to brighten up for Spring! Thanks Sylvia!
when i was fourr
I love warm light light blonde hair. Likes the type the Scandinavians have naturally. It just looks so beautiful.
I love all your videos! I tried this the other day and love, love, love the results! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
I just added some lowlights to my blonde hair and it got rid of brassyness and made it look more natural! I am so pleased:)
You answered my questions and taught me even more! I’m a junior hairdresser but sometimes become confused with colour (not good lol) but I understand this now! Thank you 💖
It turned out pretty close to hers. They didnt have the 11 at Sallys so I figured 12 would be close. My hair was a medium gold brassy blonde but now it is lighter and has more natural and ashy tones..I did mix the 12n with 12a . I love the results.
Hi! Did you use the chi color and if not what brand did you use in the 12n and 12a? Also did you mix with the 20 developer? Thanks!
Thank you so much! I bought the 12 too and have a similar blonde to you and it sounds like the result is exactly what I am looking for. Thank you for responding!
I believe it was the ion from Sallys. Yes, I mixed equal parts of the Natural and Ash with the 20dev.
FaithFitHealth You just saved my hair. I was about to apply only the ashy (I have a level 8 brassy blonde) and was thinking that maybe I should mix that with a pear/natural tone too. Thanks!
Yeah my hair turned gold brassy smh
Omg thank you so much. I am letting my gray grow out and I have a full head of blond highlights. I love it! My gray blends in with the bond. They are blond I have gotten so many compliments. ❤️😘
Thank you.. Your techniques and tips are very helpful. I look forward to seeing more videos and expanding my knowledge of hair.
I know this is one of your first videos, but I have to tell you I absolutely love, luv, ♥️your hair in this stage of your RUclips career...absolute perfection 🥰
Hi Silvia, I just want to thank you!!! I did my hair last night with your help from this video...I only had a HL12A in my house not an HL11A...I did exactly what you advised 1 part color two parts developer 20 vol...it turned out A - Mazing!!! It took my washed out middle and ends to a bright buttery blonde...I have been searching for a way to brighten my previously bleached, but brassy ends without using bleach...I cannot thank you enough!!!!
Question for you though...I didn't have enough to do the undersides of my hair so I concentrated mainly on the hair that is visible daily...Could I repeat this process using Olaplex in the mixture in a couple of weeks to brighten the remaining hair ??
Did you wet your hair 1st or put in on dry??
I am a brunette, but I really like your channel and all of your hair tips. I loved your split end video. I totally subscribed after watching that. :)
You are a life saver! I have dark brown hair & I used a 30 vol. (The highest I'll ever go) to bleach my hair. It came out really brassy & I toned it with Wells T18 & laid a semi permanent on top because I could not get to the blonde that I needed to lift to. When ever this semi color fades out I'll try the hi lift color
Can you please do a video about olaplex and your feelings on it, is it worth the hype? Does it really work, the process, etc? That would be amazing!! Im very curious about it and how you can overlap bleach on already lightened hair to get to a white platinum blond using olaplex, and i really trust your opinion!! Thanks silvia!!!!
Ion 2 step at sallys is like $4 and works just as well...
Amanda Nicole I just went from dyed black box dye hair to a level 10 blonde...pretty much platinum with Olaplex in my lightener. My hair is super soft too. We did 30v twice and I have little damage!
.
Thanks so much for this!!!! I'm going to do it on my medium blonde hair soon to brighten it up for Spring. This is just what I was looking for!!!! 💗
I actually needed this. My hair went orange/yellow lol
Great idea! My client who I just cannot get platinum sent me this. She’s already at a 8-9. So this looks promising 🤞 and if it gets on roots and makes brassy I can always shadow root at the bowl
Love the videos!! Would like to see a video on keeping hair blonde like yours on naturally dark ashy blonde/light brown, with a mix of gray in the roots. I haven't seen a video yet on how to best cover gray when coloring and doing a root touch-up. Color doesn't always get it all. -thanks!!!
the "before" was perfect, summery, that went to dull, lifeless
hey silvia can you please make a video for gloss treatment at home for processed bleached hair? :)
I wish I lived close to you so I could book my self in with you... I love your hair!!! I am currently having half head of highlights every 6 weeks I'm thinking about trying to do my hair my self but watching your vids as being a fake blonde it's quite costly!
Xx
Hello,
My mothers hair is grey (she's 54 years). It's been colored since 30 years. The color is number 8 mixed with number 8.32 with dev. 20 and she has also her hair bleached (the shine of the hair is very gold, i don't like that very much). But after 2 weeks you see the grey hair already. She goes every 4 weeks to the hairdresser, she bleached her hair with tinfoil and in between she colors the hair. Her hair is very dry! I watched your tutorials and i love them!! Now i want to do my mothers hair but what can i do at home so she doesn't have to go every 4 weeks to her hairdresser. I want a natural look with blond balayage or highlights and i want the grey hair coated. Can you help me? Your hair is amazing and my mother loves your color, she wants that also. What can i use? Thanks xx
You are amazing !! Did this after watching ur video and saved damage to my hair and money i dont have for hair dresser !! Thank you thank you thank you !!! Especially for all ur videos and help us poor folks lol !!!
Hi Silvia, I love your videos! Had a question...would this work on hair that is highlighted blonde (primarily level 9-10) with remainder of hair level 6-7? Would it turn the darker hair orange or only brighten?
So going to try this!!! Just got more highlights but in a few weeks I'll try this! Thanks!!! Keep making videos like these. You're hair is so gorgeous! Hair goals!
I'm thinking of doing this to my hair but I have about three inches of dark blonde root showing, if I apply the colour to the roots will it go orange as you mentioned? Should I just avoid the roots all together?
It will because the developer has peroxide in it which will lift the hair slightly.
This is the second video that gave me great information, so thanks once again, you are AWESOME! I am a natural blond but older, so my blond is so meh. I really need something to make it pop again without spending mega bucks and since my hair is very fine; I want to avoid anything harsh. Love your advice.
Does this help if you're naturally blonde? My hair gets darker in the winter I just want a little more lightening.
Brittney Gray hey brittney I see your a hair dresser I have a question so I already have bleached hair but I have a ash blonde but like a dark ash blonde can I use this to go to like a lighter ash blonde or will it just make it darker
so my hair has been bleached and toned already but It's still like a pale yellow..so can I use a high lift for my hair ?
thank you for sharing & saving us all a bunch of money . love doing my own hair and any little tricks sure help.
I'm hoping you answer questions: I got cast as a blonde (dark blonde/light brown) and my hair was dyed dark ash brown. I wanted to dye it back to medium anyway so I took the part because I was going to need to lift some color anyway. Here's what I did:
I stripped the color, then bleached my hair with a 1:2 ratio of blue bleach and 30 volume developer.
Then I toned my hair with a 1:2 ratio of 20 volume developer to Wella T-18
Then dyed by hair "dark ash blonde."
It is still very golden, and this character we believe was a natural dark blonde/light brown.
What should I do next to make the color cooler? It is the correct lightness, but too golden to look natural.
Thank you so much for all of your tutorials 💓 them ALL! 2 questions; 1 will this product cover grey roots too?, 2 how many times per year can you do this?
Thank you for this video! Tried it last night and it really brightened up my blonde highlights and helped take some of the red out of my base color (tried to lighten with a box color last time, lots of red tones leftover).
Yay, I am so excited. I did this to my hair and I love love love it. My hair looked like your before picture and I kept feeling like I wasn't completely happy, like something was not perfect (even right after the salon) This was the trick. I went to Sally's and I got New Brilliance high lift in the 12A (there were no 11A's) Mixed with with the 20 volume and left it on for 15 like you say. worked perfect! Thank you thank you thank you! How often should one do this type of thing?
This is exactly what I was looking for!!! You rock! Thank you
I actually liked the "before" picture more :)
I did too. I thought it was a beautiful natural, even shiny color. The after looks dull and lifeless
MissV me too. the before was pretty, buttery looking and shiny.
MissV yea me too.
Ok.... I have a question ??? I did a hi lift, in between going to the salon, and I absolutely love how everything turned out except..... my roots! They were about 1 1/2 in grown out. I feel they came out very brassy. Everything else was a beautiful color. Why are my roots brassy and how do I avoid it happening again?
I agree it's the matter of preference. Several years ago cool blonde was what most blondes were aiming for (including myself). Now, I think, natural warmer blonde color is in trend. The video is a bit outdated too..
Make sure this colour does not touch your roots (natural hair colour) as this can turn it gold depending on what base level you are x great video iv watched lots , I have my own salon in South Wales U.K. .. Spa wars BBC . X love jayde
Hello, if I want to use Olaplex with this, should I use a 30 vol. color developer or should I choose a lighter shade such as 12A or 13A (Ultra Light Palest Ash Blonde) with the 20 vol. developer? Thanks.
Seriously YOU ARE THE BEST! I am very chemical ignorant because I am NOT a stylist/colorist so this is stuff I NEVER knew.
I have processed hair. It is Naturally a soft black, but now I have "white" hair coming through and since it takes a LONG time and a LOT of $$$ (well worth it to have my hair lady do it! I'm NOT complaining! I love her) but I like to lengthen the time in-between colors (approx2-3 months) by doing my roots at home.
and everytime I have colored my hair I use the items from Sally Beauty:
ION BRANDS for BOTH:
Color Brilliance Permanent Hair color (creme) in
HIGH LIFT ASH BLONDE
and
the SENSITIVE SCALP (purple bottle) of
30 VOLUME DEVELOPER
I leave on for 25 mins max and it still comes out a bit brassy not super terrible the last few times since I found this High lift ash blonde (better than anything I've every tried from Sally - and unfortunately the ladies working there respond with, "i have never used it so I don't know". Hey at least they're honest. I absolutely DESPISE the ORANGE/Strawberry blonde color it yields.
You mentioned in THIS video that using the 20 Vol. developer will prevent or deter from the brassiness. Do you think that may help?
I know my color/roots are sight unseen and there are so many different versions of soft black with grey/white hair, but my question has been unanswered by so many. Mostly I don't knows and Yah, sure that will work then it turns up brassy.
Anything you can offer would be super helpful and I love learning about this stuff for myself. My hair has always lifted with red or brassy tones.
I used to use 40 vol. and it was STILL brassy (on the advice of a Sally Beauty employee - again not her fault but geez!)
THank you Silvia!! Love your videos!!
Does this work for Balayge ?
What I like about you is that you explain like we are six years old and it's good for those that need it like me. You are not out to be discovered, showing off. Because of that, I have had to stop watching these wanna be stars who have "how to" videos..Thanks for the no pretense and for the help I want to get my mom's long white hair to get rid of the yellowing and she's hard to please but she has all this virgin white hair but it's yellowish and old. Maybe with your watching your video, I can get her to cut it in a cute style.
Is this for naturally blonde hair too or just hair that was dyed blonde? I have completely natural blonde hair that I’d like to lighten up but idk how. Purple shampoo doesn’t really do anything to it
you’re an ideal candidate for it, so yeah.
Hey there! I have been looking all over the internet for an answer to what to do with my hair and this seems like the best answer- My hair is naturally dark blonde and is always being highlighted/bleached/foiled at the re-growth but my stylist never does anything with my lengths.... my lengths are looking very dull and brassy, and I'm wondering what needs to be done to the lengths... this looks like the answer! I'm going to ask her next time to do this for me, however, you mentioned doing this to the roots as well? Every time I have done a high-lift color on my roots (for a double process look) my roots turned out too warm and orangey, so I stay away from the roots with high-lift color.....
What light do you use for your videos? I'm looking for a perfect makeup light for my vanity...and yours is amazing.
Can this count as Community Service? Thank you SO MUCH. U just made my brassy level 8-9 blonde so beautiful and tone.
what color did you use?
I have a question I have lightened blonde hair. But my roots are about a level 9 ash maybe an 8 blonde. If I apply the highlift to my roots will it bump me up to a 10? I usually have my roots lightened but if I can get them lighter without using bleach/lightened I would prefer that and it would save me money.
hey girl love your videos!!! can you please do a video like this again!!! but showing a demo on how u apply this!!! thanks love yah!! i wanna refresh my blonde hair !!
How long after getting highlights should you wait to do this?? Or can you go ahead and do this right away? I just got highlights that turned out too dark
Thanks! I was just going through videos trying to decide what I needed to do with my hair! This was definitely it.
Can I use it on my hair?The color of my hair is 8.1Loreal with 20% developer....thank you so much 😊 sent you love from Greece
Hey I have a balayage but my base is a level 6. Can I still do this?
