Hello, everyone!
Hope you all are doing great. Today, I’ll be telling you about how can we get rid of orange or brassy hair by using toners available in the market. There is a huge array of toners that you can buy, whichever suits you best.
How do we get orange/brassy hair?
The big reason our hair gets orangy or brassy is when we color our hair many shades lighter. It doesn’t apply to those who have naturally light hair. Sometimes, the causes of brassy hair are the sulfates and other harmful chemicals in the hair products we use. Hard water is another reason to get orangy hair. If hair is exposed too much to the sun, then we can get orange hair. Pollution in the environment adds to it.
What does a toner do to orange hair?
A good toner neutralizes the orange in your hair by keeping the original color. It makes the hair flattering. Following are some of the best toners that you can buy:
1. Jerome Russell BBlonde Toner Steel
It costs around £4.49 for 75 ml. It is a non-permanent toner that enhances the hair color and imparts a subtle tone too. It neutralizes the yellow and brassy tones and makes the hair glossy. It comes in variants like:
• Jerome Russell BBlonde Toner Platinum

2. Hair Xpertise Argan Blonde Silverising and Toning Spray
It costs £4.32 for 150 ml. It comes in a convenient spray bottle. It helps in neutralizing yellow orange tone in blonde, highlighted and gray hair.
3. L’Oreal Paris Colorist Secrets Brass Banisher
This can be used for natural and highlighted hair. Like other toners, this also neutralizes yellow and orange and get them out of the hair.
4. Colour Freedom White Blonde 027

Following are some DIY toners that you can make at home easily without spending much:
6. Apple Cider Vinegar Toner
Mix equal amount of apple cider vinegar and distilled water. This mixture gets rid of orange hair. You can store this mixture for a week in the refrigerator. Pour it in a clean sanitized spray bottle and use when required. I have noticed that because the DIY methods do not contain any chemicals, they can be used more often as compared to the ones available in the market.
7. Lemon Juice Toner
Mix lemon juice, few drops of aloe vera gel and distilled water. Give it a good shake and your toner is ready. The aloe vera in the toner imparts glossiness and softness to the hair, while lemon juice neutralizes orange in the hair.
