If you’ve ever been frustrated by your beautiful blonde hair turning an unwanted shade of yellow, you’re not alone. Brassiness and dullness can affect all hair colours between salon visits. At Rush, we offer the perfect solution: toner! It’s the secret weapon for maintaining that vibrant, fresh-from-the-salon look.
In this guide, we will break down everything you need to know about toner, how it works, and the different types available.
What is a Hair Toner?
A toner is a specialised treatment designed to neutralise and adjust the tone of your hair. It is particularly effective after lightening procedures such as bleaching or highlighting. When hair is lightened, natural pigments are often stripped away, leading to undesirable tones such as yellow, orange, or red; commonly referred to as brassiness.
By applying a toner with the appropriate undertones, our Rush colourists can neutralise brassiness and restore a more balanced tone. For instance, purple or blue-based toners are typically used to correct yellow or orange undertones.
In a nutshell, a toner is essential for maintaining the vibrancy and colour of your hair!
What are the Types of Hair Toners?
Both salon and at-home toners ultimately serve the same purpose: neutralising brassiness and preserving hair colour, but there are some key differences.
At-home toners
At-home toners help to maintain your hair colour between salon visits and come in shampoos, conditioners and hair masks that contain purple, silver or blue pigments. The difference between these and in-salon toners is that at-home toners contain less pigments, meaning they won’t last quite as long.
In-salon toners
In salons, toners are typically more powerful and custom blended to meet individual client needs. These toners usually contain a higher concentration of active ingredients, resulting in more immediate and long-lasting results. At Rush our stylists can personalise your colour by adjusting the tone to be warmer or cooler as well as correcting unwanted shades. It is also possible to add a bright pop of fashion colour without lifting the base colour. Additionally, this service helps ensure an even hair colour result from root to tip.
How Does Toner Benefit Your Hair?
Using a toner can do more than just help you achieve your desired hair colour; it offers a variety of additional benefits. In addition to restoring and enhancing your hair’s tone, toners provide definition to your colour and help combat discoloration.
Toners not only correct hair colour but also add shine, increase softness, and reduce the appearance of split ends, which is great news for anyone dealing with damaged hair! If your hair looks dull and lacklustre, a toner can revitalise your strands and make them more vibrant.
Another fantastic advantage of using a toner is its ability to strengthen your hair by forming a protective layer around each strand.
At Rush, our toning service allows your stylist to customise your hair by adjusting the warmth or coolness of the tone and correcting any unwanted shades. Additionally, it’s possible to add a vibrant fashion colour without needing to lighten the existing shade.

What Colour Results Can You Expect from Toner
Hair toner is a versatile product that can deliver a range of different results depending on hair types and desired looks. For example, for blonde hair, toners can neutralise yellow to achieve a cooler and ashier tone.
For brunettes, toner can be used to enrich and deepen their natural colour, creating a more lustrous and multi-dimensional appearance.
For red hair, toner can add warmer, more vibrant tones, enhancing the hairs brightness and radiance. Additionally, toners are not just for impactful changes, they can be used in subtle ways to enhance a natural hair colour or refresh a faded dye, helping to maintain a fresh from the salon look.
Whether you are correcting unwanted tones or enhancing your colour, toner offers a tailored solution for different hair colours, hair types and needs.
How to maintain and make your hair toner last longer
Keeping your toner effective is essential for maintaining vibrant, brass-free hair. Here are some tips to help prolong the life of your toner:
- Use Sulphate-Free Shampoos: One of the simplest and most effective ways to maintain your toner is by using sulphate-free shampoos. Consult with your Rush stylist, who can recommend sulphate-free shampoos and conditioners specifically designed for colour-treated hair.
- Limit Heat Styling Tools: Excessive heat from hair dryers and styling tools can expand the hair cuticle, leading to colour fading and creating dry, brittle hair. If you need to use styling tools, consider investing in modern options with adjustable heat settings to minimize colour damage.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Just as our skin tans in the sun, hair can also lighten. Spending long hours in the sun without protection can cause your hair to naturally lighten and result in sun-induced brassiness, washing out the colour molecules deposited by the toner. It’s also a good idea to use haircare products that offer UV protection to minimise this effect.
By following these tips, you can help keep your hair toner vibrant and lasting longer!
