Thank you for this video. I have been bleaching and coloring my hair myself for about a year now and your video was super easy to follow and helped me decide on the Redkin EQ shades/toners. I have found my new happy place :) Once you get over your fears of bleach and color, it's not so hard. The Redkin products, by far, are the best on the market. I finally got rid of the red/yellow because of this video. Thank you for helping those of us that simply can't afford the salon anymore. Of course, it would be my preferred choice but current circumstances are what they are. Much appreciated.
Deanna where do you purchase your product? I am always concerned about buying fake product. I am in the same situation and really love doing my own hair as well.
You explained so well, you're a great teacher. I believe most hair dressers don't want to share details of how they do it but they fail to understand that sharing knowledge doesn't mean losing business. Love your honesty ❤
As a junior stylist this is one of my holy grail toners. I am so comfortable with it and it is pretty predictable. Thank you so much for the video it was soo informative & I learned stuff I didnt even know! Thank you so much!!!!
Kerry N you’re so welcome! I’m opening my own salon in 2 weeks so I’m sorry I haven’t been posting as much! As soon as I open I’ll be posting much more regularly! Let me know if there’s anything specific you would like to learn ❤️
Just subscribed. I am not a stylist. Came across your video because I was looking for tutorials about toners using Shades EQ. Your video is the MOST informative and so easy to understand ( for us non-stylists). Would love to see tutorials on toners with Shades EQ. I am a level 4 with highlights all over ,which get brassy real quick . I would love to see a tutorial to tone brassy hair and get the warmth out.
Danielle, I just subscribed and GIRL YOU ARE AMAZING! Like Parul Sheth-Rana, my hair pulls red (I'm a natural level 4) and of course, I love ashy violet colors. I think the formula you shared would work for me, but would love alternative color suggestions.
You really should be a teacher for color! I am a teacher, and you explain it very well! Can you do more videos of showing color correction with different toners? before and after? Thank you!
I really don’t understand the thumbs down that’s crazy to me but you explained perfectly you are amazing thank you sm. Toning can are really hard to understand and you explained it so well.
Wow ! this was amazing helpful! thank you so much, I just watched one of your other shades videos and went searching for more! so glad you posted these videos!
Best toners for different hair colors? How could she do that. It would depend what your goal color is. Theres 100 different toners that deposit color. So, 2 brunettes could want a different outcome.
I really loved this! I'm not a stylist, I am a nail tech but worked in a small full service salon for years and have a huge interest in hair so I always paid attention. I call myself a kitchen-tician :) Anyway, i love doing colour, but am always scared of toner because of a huge accident back when I was just learning about self colouring etc. I looked like queen Elizabeth and I was 27! LOL Anyhow, you did a great job explaining without being too technical that those who don't know anything about colour wouldn't understand, but also without being too layman... or talking down. Loved this and I am totally a new subbie now. You mentioned talking about other toners you use for reds and such... yes please!!! I will be waiting very excitedly! You were awesome girl! Amanda!
+PlumpPenguinPaints thank you so much!!!! I'm so happy I can help. Color was really confusing to me too but once you break it down it's not confusing at all! I'll keep posting tutorials like this and I want to explain a lot more for you all. Also don't be afraid of toners. They are your best friends! But I totally understand how you feel after you turned into Queen Elizabeth lol but please DM me on Instagram if you have any questions! @ DaniellaBenita Thank you again ❤️❤️❤️
I'm new to Shades Eq! I have tried the walnut and I absolutely love it. I feel like it can go a long way with skin tones and hues. I love your videos! Thank you for sharing! 💓 I would love to see the list of your formulas!
So refreshing to see a video which was to the point & informative. I did enjoy your video, you gave good step by step instructions.You were professional & not silly as some videos can be.👍
Thank you Danielle so much for your time and great info. I am qualified to a level 2 and just want learn about colour correction and toning so much so your videos just help immensely! Will be looking out for more. Hoping we will be able to get hold of the EQ range here in England.xx
Fab! I’ve only just come across your channel and I am loving it so much learning a lot from just watching a few of your videos going to go through them all so I can get a better a understanding of Redken! Thank you so much for posting such informative videos xxx
Hi I am so glad that I found your channel. I have never had anyone to explain color and it is amazing!! I wish you were my hair dresser!! Keep the videos coming!!
I am a blond needing NN for grey roots but this has been very informative. I am not a beautician but a self learner for my hair. Thank you for explaining in simple form how to... will try.
Thank you so much for sharing your TRUE knowledge on Shades EQ. Just found you and subscribed, I am looking forward to watching all your videos! Blessings on your new business! You will be very successful!❤
Thank you for this!!!! Yours is the first helpful video I've come across while trying to educate myself on this product. I would LOVE more videos on shades eq formulas. I'm wondering specifically... Which colors would you use if you were trying to brighten up a dulled out platinum blonde and also add a ashy level 7 root smudge?
+Amanda Albers root smudged always use an N. So whether you're using a 7,8,9 I always use 7n, 8n, 9n! If you want a little bit more of an ashy root add a little B to it and you'll be good to go! If you want to brighten I would use a highlift. Redken has blonde highlifts that tone and lift at the same time called blonde idol. They are gorgeous! You should check those out and see how you like them but if her hair is really fragile make sure to be careful about adding heat and using foils. ❤️❤️❤️
Can you use it with a level 6 or 7 developer? That's not Redken? I have 09AA & 8C I'm about a level 8 blonde but the Redken developper is hard to come by for me
OM Gaaaaawwwh?!?!U explained this all so well!!Thank u for taking the time & giving the best instructions that I have personally heard(& I’ve seen/heard A LOT...) thus far!!Very down 2earth like u were just having a normal conversation with u’r friends.Very relatable & so easy 2 follow.Not 2 mention that u just gained another subscriber as of today so keep up the good work girlfriend!!!;-)✌🏼💇🏼♀️🤩
I can see the green coming through about a one inch band right where the new growth darker area and the blonde on the ends. I noticed it in one of your other videos with your friend. I wonder if you weren't under florescent lighting.
When adding the clear for the toner, do you do a 1:1 equal ratio as well as processing solution? So say: 1 oz 9v, 1 oz processing solution, and 1 oz clear? Or would that dilute it too much? Love your videos 😊
Daniella Benita u r such a nice person ! A lot of hairdresser don't give their secrets for people who can't offer to get their hair done professionally
I have bleached hair level 9 and I want it to be platinum but not ashy ,I want some gold in with the 9v.like a bright platinum like Gwen Stafani.can 9v and 9g be mixed together?and I want it very light.can you tell me how much clear and how much toner to mix?my hair keeps turning out to dark because my stylist doesn’t know what to mix and she won’t dilute the toners,too much saturation. Thank you 🙏🏻
I just find you and I subscribed I was looking for this color line education and you were well explained Thank you so much for your time many blessings.
Can I use this product to make my hair darker instead of using permanent color? My hair is as light as yours in this video with dark roots. Please help.
Hi love this video! Thank you. My question is, after pre-softening grey hair with developer, do you apply the color on top of that by itself? Or mix the color with more developer?
Carroll K you're so welcome!!! And it depends if I want the color to really set in rough dry someone but be very precise about the placement of the color because once the color touches dry hair it sticks! If I put toner on wet hair I'm going to get a much more minimal result. So I'll mostly towel dry all of the water from their hair then I'll take the toner and put it all over. I like to brush it through too just to make sure you get it completely saturated! ❤️
Hello Daniella, how do you remove red/orange highlights from blonde? Are 9V and 9NB enough, or would you add another? Thank you very much for your help ! have a nice day :)
I love your videos!! I mistakenly used toner (wella with 20v) all over my hair and it brightened my highlights perfectly BUT it pulled my natural 6/7 root almost orange 😢. I was thinking of using shades eq to do a root shadow or balayage to get my roots back to their natural state. Seeing none of your highlights visible above though makes me nervous though (you look amazing I’m just looking for more of a balayage). Also you saying blonde can turn green terrifies me too lol I got my hands on 6N, 9N, 9T, clear, and processing solution. Would it work to paint the 6N/ clear in my roots, and then paint 9N/9T in the middle, and 9T/ clear to the ends and front pieces. Would this blend?
Soo you can use for your roots too basically all over coverage... I always worry all my hair will fall out ... great video I've been doing my own hair for 20 plus years and I got a beautiful box from Redken with all of their brand new shades five bottles plus processing solution I am a little nervous as long as I know my hair won't fall out I'll give it a shot
Hello Daniella, great video. Right to the point. What is your favorite formula for low lights for blonds? Once in 6 month I would do low lights for my highlighted blondes. I have never used EQ. Let say for level 10.
I found out that they don't sell this product in my country :( can't get it on Ebay or Amazon either. Have you ever tried Schwarzkopf Igora Vibrance rage??
Hi Daniella. Love your videos! Thank you for making them so easy to understand. ! I just wanted to know if when mixing two different colors does that mean we also double the amount of the processing solution? I'm gonna try the 9V, 9NB ( 1 oz each) so how much processing solution do i use? 1oz? or 2 oz? Hope to hear from you soon! Thanks!
Hi Daniella Love how you explain!!! But I have a problem and I hope you can help me Most of my clients are latinas and they always pull red!!!😞 What tones you recommend for them hope you reply!! Million thanks in advance!!
Claudia Rivera hey Claudia! When my clients lift red I would use something with a blue base to it. Redken has 6b or you can clear out 1b and apply it but you have to be careful doing that. I would also consider using a different lightener. I use Schwarzkopf vario lightener and it helps me lift my clients so much better and more consistently than other lighteners. It's creamy instead of powdery. Try giving that a shot because the main issue is lifting them enough. Toners can only do so much! I also recommend using olaplex to protect their hair and try lightening much thinner sections of hair. The thinner the section the easier it is to lift!
yes, thanks daniella, your videos are very informative. how long should you wait from the time you color your hair (permanent) dark brown to apply highlights or balayage? and what should i use? thank you. i would like caramel balayage.
I would wait at least 3 months so most of the color gets rinsed out. It depends on hair dark your hair is but I would suggest doing highlights if you want your hair to lift enough. I love redken flash lift for lightener and I would definitely use some type of bond builder so your hair doesn't become damaged while it's lifting. I really like redken Ph bonder or if you want to spend a little more money olaplex is the best and they sell a travel pack that isn't too expensive! If you want to send me pictures of your hair color currently and also the look you are trying to get too ill help you formulate! Direct message me on my instagram! @DaniellaBenita
Before applying the color, do you have to bleach the hair, or do you apply the color directly with the processing solution( i have grey hair and want to do that colour at home,Thanks a lot, from Spain)
Hi. My hair is a 5n all over with heavy blonde highlights. The blonde has now grown out to about to my eyes. I want to be one color all over now. I would like a blonde with no yellow or golden tones in it. Do you think you can help?
Thx for the informative video. I'm not a stylist who likes to play around. Recently did my daughters hair kind of a balayage 🙄, toned it, then glazed it with a kenra demi permanent. It took a redish finish that i dont mind, but since school is starting i want to do a reverse balayage with a close to her natural color which is a light brown, closed to the 6nb of this line. I was wondering if i need to mixed this color with thw violet or blue to cancelled the redish tone, or choose a lighter tone to achieve the desire color, or if I can use the color as it is.
I have natural dark hair but I have been blonde for years. I like the beautiful bright buttery blonde color. This time after bleaching it I cannot get the orange out of the roots and make the blonde look bright and shiny. Can you recommend a formula to remove orange and make a beautiful bright buttery blonde I'm not into anything that has a sandy look to it but I also don't want to be platinum. Thank you I just love your channel
