How can I remove brassy orange from my brown hair?

Question

I have medium brown hair with blonde highlights, but lately it's getting that orange brassy color to it. I've tried the blonde shampoos as well as Neutrogena clairfying shampoo, but they don't help. Any ideas?

I don't want to dye my hair - looking for some kind of wash or rinse or clarifying gel . . .

Answer 1

Go to your local beauty supply store, and ask for a toner for your blonde highlights. Its should be a shampoo that is the color of deep deep purple. Use it, and it should take out the yellow-ness of your blonde highlights. Also, next time you highlight your blonde, use a developer with more of a lift. Brunettes need a higher number of a developer to lift the color out of the hair. If not, your end result is more brassy-orange-yellow look. And, when dyeing your hair, purchase a toner that you pour into your developer bottle and mix it in with everything else. Ask the person who works there to find it for you.
If all else fails, go to the salon. They've seen it all.

If you're not into re-dying your hair, try the purple toner shampoo from the beauty supply store...I highly recommend it. I have blonde hair, and I use it to get the brassy out of my hair. It really does turn the yellow into a more white-ish silvery blonde.

Answer 2

my suggestion woul be to tone it with a toner. A toner is a color that restores tones that you may have lost in a hair coloring process.Go to the salon & ask for this service they will know what your talking about. Unfortunately blonding shampoos can only do so much. If it's too brassy then you have to tone it no matter what. A toner can counter act the brassy tones in your hair if it has a blue or violet or blue- violet base. Hope that helps

Answer 3

the technique of bleaching lifts coloration from hair. It also leaves the hair shaft very porous. it is is both why your hair is sucks up coloration. besides as why there is no product that would want to eliminate this coloration because it is already the abscense of coloration you're seeing. you've gotten to proceed to coloration this hair until eventually it grows out. As your coloration maintains to vanish you'll see extra brassy tones come out. you are able to help wrestle this with a shampoo pretty made for brown hair, yet ultimately extra dye will be necessary until eventually you decrease the hair off. try a gloomy ash brown with 10 volume developer.

Answer 4

Get a toner. If you dont mind that your darker part turn a little lighter then use a lighter toner. If you want to keep it them use a darker toner. Not dark like dark just a shade or 2 darker. The toner will fix it.

Answer 5

Exactly why is everyone with blond, why can't you just have jet black curly hair with some blonde or blonde hair with some jet black hair. Now you don't have to choose.

Answer 6

if you have blonde hair it will naturally get bleached by the actual sun in the summer. There was this guy in my class who had golden blonde hair that had been a medium brown near the bottom part. When he came back to school after summer vacation, it was nearly platinum blonde!
