How To Get Rid of Brassy Highlights
Prep Your Hair For A Toning Treatment
You will want to start by washing your hair with a clarifying shampoo. This will remove any buildup on the hair, which could affect the toner’s ability to penetrate into the cuticle.
Next, apply a deep conditioning treatment and leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing with cool water and blow drying as normal. Remember that heat can damage your newly highlighted color, so make sure to use a heat protectant when styling your hair! Also remember that if you’re planning on coloring over your highlights again soon (like within three weeks), then you should avoid using any heat tools altogether on them until then!
Once dry, section off four parts: top layers (the part nearest your face) go up; bottom layers go down; side sections go left-right; back middle section goes straight down center of head (or however else you want). Clip up those top sections and comb through all four bottom pieces in order to evenly distribute product throughout each layer without having too much build up at one point making things look uneven!
Wash With Purple Shampoo
If you have blonde hair, but it’s looking a bit on the yellow side, try washing your hair with purple shampoo. Purple shampoo can help neutralize that dull brassiness that plagues many blondes.
- Lather up and leave in for at least 5 minutes before rinsing out. The longer you leave it in, the more effective it will be at toning down your brassy highlights.
- Use your toner to help you get rid of brassy highlights. Use a purple toner after using purple shampoo to really seal in their effects!
Use A Lightener
If you want to get rid of brassy hair colors, use a hair lightener. There are many different kinds of lighteners on the market that you can buy at your local drugstore. You can also find them online if you prefer to order them in advance and have them delivered right to your door instead of having to go out and get one yourself.
If you choose this option, make sure that the product is safe for colored hair before using it. A good rule of thumb is not only that can cause damage if they’re used too often or not properly applied but also that they’ve been tested and proven effective in removing brassiness from dyed strands?
Try An Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse
You can use apple cider vinegar to get rid of brassy highlights. It’s a good way to clean your hair, as well as balance your scalp’s pH levels. The acid in the vinegar helps remove any buildup in your hair and brings out a more natural look.
When you have brassy highlights, it’s important to use a toner to return your hair to its original color.
If you’ve ever had brassy highlights, you know that they can be difficult to get rid of. Brassy highlights are caused by the combination of your natural color and the dyed color that you’ve chosen for your hair. The only way to effectively remove them is to use a toner; this will neutralize all traces of brassiness and return your hair’s original tone.
To start, wash your hair as usual (you might want to consider using purple shampoo). Then, apply a toner into damp strands from roots to tips—it doesn’t matter how much or how little product you use—and let it sit for about 20 minutes before rinsing it out completely. Once this step is complete, style as usual!
