Hello,
I'm fairly new to this and have a couple of (probably dumb) questions about toners.
After bleaching, will toners always fade out? I've been reading about toners and I've seen that they usually only last from 6 to 8 weeks. However, I don't see a lot of people getting their hair re-toned that often after getting their hair done. Let's say a brunette gets highlights or balayage done and it's a caramel color. Surely enough that caramel color will stay like that and won't turn yellow, right? So how come it says everywhere that toners eventually go away? I understand that there are semi, demi and permanent toners.
My hair stylist made my hair way too light for me and I miss the deeper, golden blonde hair that I used to have (which I managed to get at home and did not require a toner). I went to a different hair dresser and she used a semi permanent color but it went away so so fast. I was disappointed as I don't want to have to pay 100€ every month to fix the other hair stylist mistake. Is there a way to make the darker golden tone on my hair permanent?
I'm also considering going to a different salon and getting the same golden blonde I had "higher" as my hair has grown out a lot, so I would need to bleach it and not just tone the lighter parts that I don't like. But I'm worried that I'll have to keep going to the salon that often to get it toned again and mantain the new golden blonde tone.
I'm probably confusing a lot of terms but I'd like to understand how it works. I used to get my hair a lighter tone than my natural color at home without bleaching it and it looked amazing and I loved it. It took me years to go to a hair stylist and she did a balayage on me that I didn't want and now my hair is a blonde color that I don't like (plus it's too light). I got it fixed and it didn't last at all, it feels like I threw my money away. Is there a way to make it a permanent golden blonde other than dying it? I'm also considering going to a new hair stylist as my hair is starting to grow out a lot, but I don't know if I'll be able to get that same golden blonde permanently on my virgin hair or if I'll have to keep going every 6 weeks to mantain it.
I'm so frustrated because I LOVED my hair, I never went to a hair stylist ever and after going to one it's been nothing but problems for me. Any advice is appreciated
