You’re thinking of giving the locks a different look, but nothing too radical? Maybe toning could be a great option for you!
Without damaging or attacking your hair, with it you can invest in a new color, cover the white threads and, from breaking, get a lot of shine and brightness in the highlights.
What’s toning?
The toning agent is a non-permanent coloring product. Because it does not contain strong chemicals, especially ammonia and oxygenated water, this dye does not adhere deeply to the hair fiber, which makes its effect temporary. It is ideal for those who love to be always changing the look!

What is the difference between tincture and tonic?
The difference between the dye and the tonic is in the chemical composition. The toning agent has a less aggressive composition for the hairs, so the dye does not penetrate deeply into the hair fiber. It is indicated for shiny baths, eliminating the faded or yellowish aspect of the hair.
The dye is a stronger product that penetrates the hair fiber, resulting in a permanent color. It is the ideal coloring for those who want to cover the dreaded white threads or bet on a specific look.
What’s the best tonic?
It all depends on what your hair needs and what result you want. All tints have the same temporary dye function. However, there are already several types of the product that deliver other benefits besides coloring! Therefore, consult your hairdresser and see which tint is ideal for your hair.

How do I apply the toning agent to my hair?
The application of the toning agent is very simple, similar to the application of the common dye. The right thing to do is to perform the procedure with a professional, but there is no mystery to do at home! Check and write down the step by step.
- Separate the hair into fine strands. Then apply the toning agent from the root to the ends, glossing the locks over the entire length of the strands, spreading the color well;
- Let the product act for 15 to 20 minutes;
- Soon after, wash your hair without shampoo, only with cold water. Rinse well to remove all product;
- Finish by applying a combing cream of your preference, keeping the threads even more moisturized!
But, watch out! For those who already have chemically treated hair, it is essential to consult a professional first to analyze your case and indicate a product and a suitable form of application.
