Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the best toner for blonde hair?
The best toner depends on the undertones you want to enhance or neutralise. Violet-based toners help cancel out yellow tones, while blue-based ones reduce orange or brassy hues. Ash, pearl or beige toners can add subtle variation depending on your desired result. The right choice also depends on how light your hair is and whether you're maintaining or correcting colour. A professional colourist will choose the best option based on your current tone and goals.
How often should blondes tone their hair?
Blonde hair typically needs toning every four to six weeks, depending on how often you wash your hair and your lifestyle. If you swim, use heated tools regularly or wash with harsh shampoos, you may notice brassiness sooner. A purple shampoo once or twice a week can help between salon visits, but overuse may dry out or dull your hair. An in-salon toner will refresh your blonde and restore the look you love.
Can I go blonde in one session?
It depends on your starting hair colour, current condition and whether you’ve coloured your hair before. If your hair is dark or has previous dye, lightening safely may take a few appointments. Rushing the process can damage your hair or result in uneven tones. A colourist will assess your hair, explain what’s possible in one session and suggest a plan that keeps your hair healthy while working toward your ideal blonde shade.
Custom-Toned Colour
Your Perfect Blonde
Blonde colouring is as much science as it is style. That’s why we take a personalised approach to every appointment. From full or half-head foils to scalp lightening, balayage, toners and root melts, we’ll suggest the right combination based on your hair type, lift level and upkeep preferences. We also offer detox treatments to remove metal build-up and strengthen your hair before lightening.
Whether you're refreshing grown-out foils or starting fresh with a full bleach and tone, we’ll help you maintain your blonde while keeping your hair in healthy condition. Our aim is to give you the tone you love and the finish that lasts between visits.
