love the natural look. I am a 15-20 min toner, but I do most at the backbar to save 30-40 mins of drying, then applying, then processing. For those who have little concept of how long things can actually take because you have an assistant doing it...5-10 mins to shampoo out bleach, 5 mins combing/detangling, then rough dry for 10...thats already 20-25 mins and I haven't applied toner! In my experience, toning while damp is what Demi manufacturers kind of expect. The ingredients include things that will foam and easily carry color pigments throughout the hair to be easily spread on damp hair, which also keeps hair with moisture. Plus clients don't like sticker shocker being told it will take MORE time, so charging for time and color used after a long highlighting session may freak them out. I like to factor in the cost, then either tone, or not. However, when doing something like a corrective, double process, recoloring, etc...more in depth attention needs to be made. In that instance we may be using permanent color with alkaline ingredients best used on dryer hair.
Flash toner here. 🙋🏻♀️ I’ve been in the industry for 12 years and went to a relent exclusive school and we weren’t taught to let it sit the full 20 minutes either.
I’m a total flash toner 90% of the time. I’m in the same boat, 20+ years in the industry and my clients are usually happier when I flash tone vs 20 min tone on dry hair!
Great vid!!! Your explanation of how and why you do balayage the way you do is perfect! Great great tips! Haters are those who tend to be bullies and not very good at what they do. Jealousy gets people nowhere! Xoxo
If anyone is watching this and has thin curly hair that is sensitive to clays, stay away from this type of lightening treatment. It pulls all oils out of hair and is extremely drying. Those who have less porous hair it may work much better on. If you have very porous hair and products are heavy on your hair then this will damage you hair and you will need to hydrate for weeks or more. Perhaps conventional lightening or even the cream instead of powder will work better. I’ve done all three of these methods stated above. Just trying to look out for the curls since they are so difficult to keep when bleaching. Another thing, if you are also concerned with drying your hair out try a 20 volume developer instead and go 4-6 weeks between bleaching with 3 days in between washes and deep conditioning after each wash. It’ll take about 2-3 weeks to get the curls to bounce back.
I almost thought you were going to do a comparison between the two, showing how the outcomes would be. QUESTION: Have you used this technique on Virgin hair, 50% gray/level 4, without a root color?
Hi,please can I use the clay for highlights in foil for dark hair? Am thinking I would need to use 20v developer in foil , right? I don’t want too much lift and don’t want to damage my hair, thanks
My hair looks like when you met this customer. Platinum on bottom half and dark roots with silver virgin roots growing out. My hair is fine and can’t take anymore bleach on ends. What’s an easy way to blend the dark into light without hurting anymore platinum and what toner would blend the two worlds best. I need to do this myself. I can’t afford the salon upkeep anymore. I need easy.
It lifts slower, so it will take longer to achieve the same results, does thatmake sense. and WAYYY less damage. my clients who have had it done for 5 years their hair is thicker and healthier because of less damage and breakage
Question about the flash toning :)im curious, based on your experience.......If we dont leave it on for the full 20 mins or so. wouldnt it not penetrate as deeply? also, would the toner not wash/ fade quicker? (not criticizing at all.. just looking to learn. xox tnx a bunch in advance.
Thats a legit question and I'm glad you asked, thats what ive been told my entire career however my experience shows me otherwise. All my clients hair has been fine. TOner will always fade but I havent noticed it fade any quicker with flash toning. ( such a rule breaker arent I) hehe
Would this be safe to use on colored hair I have purple an want to do orange for Halloween but don’t want to fry my hair would this be good for that need help
@@tizianapaonessa5611 thats one thing I strive for, i used to get so frustrated with classes that taught things i would never actually do in the salon. Thank you for that feedback

I like how well you broke this down. I agree with you 100%
You shouldn't put yourself down sometimes. You are so talented...
I’m definitely a flash toner!! I learned that way too! I’ve never kept a toner on for longer than 15 minutes

Right! Same here shanna! Glad we arent alone
I'm a flash toner too. I did leave a 8t toner on. I applied it to dry hair and watched it. I found that silver toners do better on dry hair.
You’re the best! Thx for watching. Are you team clay lightener or team bleach? I wanna know
❤great tips! Love your voice! Broadcaster voice 😊 hair make over beautiful 😻

I have just come across your channel 😀so pleased I have -I think you are a fantastic artist love the honesty .. keep em coming 💕
Thank you Leanne! I cant wait to hear what you think of my other videos 💗💗
I almost thought you were going to do a comparison between the two, showing how the outcomes would be.
QUESTION: Have you used this technique on Virgin hair, 50% gray/level 4, without a root color?
I have a video about retouching gray if you wanna check that out
I didn’t like it.
I LOVED IT!!!!
Loved the technique and the result. When you only have the toner on for 5 or so mins do you get enough deposit? And how long does it last?
I tend to pick half a shade darker when flash toning and no complaints from clients in 20 years. Great questions
I love your videos. Thank you.
Killer topic!!!
Thanks friend!!!!
This was so helpful!! Thanks so so much 💓
Very helpful. Thx
What developer did you use with the toners?
Thank you so much!
Hi,please can I use the clay for highlights in foil for dark hair? Am thinking I would need to use 20v developer in foil , right? I don’t want too much lift and don’t want to damage my hair, thanks
Fabulous instruction! Awesome results!! What’s not to learn! Love clay lightener. Do you use this technique on short to neck length?
Question girly ❤️
Whats up?
My hair looks like when you met this customer. Platinum on bottom half and dark roots with silver virgin roots growing out. My hair is fine and can’t take anymore bleach on ends. What’s an easy way to blend the dark into light without hurting anymore platinum and what toner would blend the two worlds best. I need to do this myself. I can’t afford the salon upkeep anymore. I need easy.
I’m 100% a flash toner!
Woohoo!! I love it 🥰
Can you use regular developer or do you have to use developer specific to clay lightener?
Would you say that clay lightener lifts less than bleach? Does it also cause less damage? Can it be used on scalp?
It lifts slower, so it will take longer to achieve the same results, does thatmake sense. and WAYYY less damage. my clients who have had it done for 5 years their hair is thicker and healthier because of less damage and breakage
@@dawnbradley I will be trying clay lightener to see if it does less damage. Thank you so much for the info!
@@EuropasOcean let me know how it goes!💗
@@dawnbradley how long can you leave it on before rinsing? That wasn’t in the video
How long would you leave it for a lot of lift? Example taking a level 5 or 6 to a level 9
I have a question with the clay can you use it on the whole head to remove color and what do you do with gray hair
Definitely not a flash toner unless client's hair is overly porous or sensitized.
Can you film a salon tour 🙏🏾
You betcha. You can see it here ruclips.net/video/vfEyGRiefak/видео.html

are you a hairstylist? If not I would suggest going to a licensed stylist for your service
I am totally a flash toner.
What toner did use??
Flash toner ? Guilty 😂😂 . I learnt to watch the toner not time it and i wasn't in the industry for that long .
yassss thank you :-) I love it
20mins is not my style either. I find it goes to dark when you keep it on to long. Love the technique and colour. Thanks for sharing this with us.
yay Im glad you're with. me on that! Did you enjoy this tutorial?
I really enjoy your tutorials. Your techniques are great and usefully in the salon.

AUDIO IS VERY LOW - please get fixed. It blows my ears out when a commercial comes on at regular audio level and folks are wearing headphones
Me too, have trouble hearing.
