Here is the correct way to do a root color touch up and toner through the mid length and ends in the salon. The Redken mantra is always alkaline colors on the root for lift and acidic colors on the mid length and ends. This way you get amazing lift and color pay off on the roots yet no damage on the rest of the hair. In many hair color brands doing this is a challenge as they don't have direct matching toners to hair color. Redken has mastered this making this technique so easy. I used the new color gel lacquers and the shades eq tones to tone the rest of the hair. Hope you enjoy these in salon videos, thank you for watching!

Hey red can brand ambassador silver race here with my client Megan, and we're gon na be doing a root touch-up on her using the new color gels and directly matching that with the shades of Q in the same level, just toning out all of her her hair To remove some of that, unwanted warmth that she came in with the roots are going to be a lot cooler without looking ashy so for the route formula. I'M going to be using the new color gel lacquers and I'm going to be doing one ounce of that and one ounce of 20 volume peroxide. The beauty of the new lacquers is that you can mix these with any developer. I also love the easy mixing ability of these lacquers. I can literally mix this in about two seconds and it's ready to apply I'd like to start off by applying the color all over the perimeter of the section that I'm working in then grabbing horizontal sections to apply the color on the route. Until I'm done with that section, the correct way to touch up a root, color and tone, the rest of the hair is always to use an alkaline color on the roots which is needed to lift the hair and an acidic color to tone. The remainder of the hair so bringing the pH balance of the hair down, as you can see in this diagram here, a hair that it's too alkaline, we'll open up the hair, cuticle and the hair will become dull and brittle oftentimes clients will ask why I don't Run the color through the ends - and this is the scientific reason why, by running the color on the roots, all the way to the ends would just be adding unnecessary damage to the hair, where you can get the absolute same results. But without any of the dryness or damage, I've been directly matching colors from the color gel lacquers and the shades acute toner make formulating and getting a seamless look that much easier. So keeping clean and even sections will ensure that you've evenly saturated the hair. And so, while we process, why not enjoy a glass of rose, a for her toner, I'm gon na be using shades eq o 9n, which is in the new renkins a master, the art of toning box. I'M mixing one ounce of oh nine, n shades eq one ounce of crystal clear and two ounces of processing solution. So then rinsing out her root, color and prepping, your hair for toner. This is going to even out the tones. The neutral shade is going to cancel out any warmth under here and just leave her hair with incredible shine and, as you can see, perfectly toned hair without looking too gray or ashy. Then just a quick trim and we're ready for a blowout, I'm applying red khun's heat design and thermal shaping a blowout cream. As you can see, her blonde looks toned even and refreshed, I think, a beach way, which is so flattering on freshly colored and toned hair, because you get to see all the dimension and shine it through the hair and toning all of her hair or to remove Some of that unwanted warmth that she came in with the roots are going to be a lot cooler without looking ashy.

Megan D'Arcy: Thank you so much, Silvia! My hair looks AMAZING! I'm getting so many compliments <3
bibz845: Hey ellebangs, I’ve recently started colouring my own hair again after having blonde foils done professionally for 10 years. I’ve just grown tired of the whole process. I have A LOT of hair and the time and the Sydney prices were killing me. I should also say that I’m quite confident colouring my own hair and did so for years before I walked into a salon. Anyway, I’m only 33 but heavily grey at the front (thanks genetics). Will root shadow work with grey hair? It looks absolutely stunning and seems like a doable technique for me. I’m a very light blonde at the moment and in desperate need of some depth. Appreciate any advice you can give as I know you’re a busy lady. Totally obsessed with your vids x
Tracey Lynn: Beautiful Silvia!!! I wish I could get a hold of these professional only products, but I do have to say that because of YOUR videos I have gone from dark brown to blonde successfully and up kept it for over 2 years now. I have learned so much from you, so I THANK YOU so much I always look forward to your videos!!!! I hope you have a great week
KatieAnneFit: You need to do more salon videos!!!!! I love it! I’m in Cosmo school and just love watching you do your thing
April Lane: Love this colour it’s so lovely and love the care that’s taken with the hair, it’s looks in such good condition considering it’s been lightened. Wish I knew what to ask for sometimes x
Nicole Lori: I absolutely love watching these ..wishing I was your client. My unwanted warmth is so bad and no matter how many people I go to it never changes it so annoying and so much wasted money ☹️
Jamie Lynn Quinene: That is beautiful! I've been doing my hair at home for about 2 yrs now, going blonde or ashy is hard to maintain! I'm glad I found your YT channels for tips on how to do it more professionally. A lot of my friends, ask me to do their hair too, but I always tell them I WILL NOT touch it bc I am no professional. Love your videos, and thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
Noris Hiciano: LOVE you work!!! I'm a blonde girl since 2013 and It's all thanks to you. My hair looks healthy and I just love it!!

s mmg: I LOVE this type of videos!!! You did an amazing job!!!
Andrea Pate: Turned out beautiful! Great job!!
Meg Hargreaves: Your so relaxing to watch can tell your in full control and you know Exactly what your doing. Unlike the bish I just paid 300 to do a full head of foils but left me with full inches of regrowth from my prior scalp bleach with no foils to be seen from my mid section down....
Olga W: Thank you for posting the video! I have a question about toning. How long do I need to keep it on before washing it off? I will be using your formula: 1oz 09N +1 oz crystal clear + 2oz processing solution.
The Master Diamond of My Life: Love all your videos for professionals. Question: why did you decide to not apply the SEQ while processing roots?
Jennifer slusher: I love your wrk and watch all of your vids!! I’m doing my hair myself thanks to you and saving a ton of $. I’m a Cosmo not styling at the moment I’m in esthetics and you inspire me to get back into being s stylist. Redkin is incredible and I would love to be as knowledgeable in redkin products as you !! Your incredible and such an inspiration. I live in Napa and I can’t wait to make an appt soon to experience your magic ty Sylvia
_Tera__: I tried something similar to this on a small part of my hair, I applied the highlift colour only on the newly grown root area. I used Wella Koleston Perfect Special Blonde in the shade 12/81 mixed with a 30 volume developer. Unfortunately I couldn't find Redken products nearby. I have previously highlighted hair and the hair turned purple in the places where the highlift color had touched the already highlighted hair. You used a highlift color to her root area as well, I was wondering why there wasn't any purple residue with this one or is that because of the Redken color gels lacquers?
Val Vlogs: The color came out beautiful! love your work. You’re beautiful.
Elizabeth B: It looks SO, so good!! Such a difference! Her curls came out gorgeous too! Can you recommend any styling product(s) that work well for finer hair, if you’re going to curl it? My hair refuses to hold a curl.
Lynn Rose: Just simply beautiful. Great job.
Princess Sofia: You are so talented. I know you say the new color gels make it easy with their formula but you are still an artist and have an eye for the right color and tone. Beautiful result!
Felicia Vera: Definitely going to try these products and process! Awesome job!!! Love it
Gig Life With Lexi: Wow Sylvia, you do such beautiful work! The color came out perfect. I wish I wasn't in So. Ca. Would love to have to you do my hair. Another great video! xo

Digitalhunny: @ellebangs - You are amazing! I love your videos. You're a smart, gorgeous & real woman! Thank you, for being you!
Kalisha J: Wow, so pretty!! Nice job on the color.
K N: I am kind of clueless, but I was wondering because I do my own hair and I love how educated you are in what you do and I find your videos very informative. I usually see blondes have their roots bleached in a touch up, but I haven’t seen you do that. Is the developer enough to lift for a root touch up to blonde? Or is the bleach only necessary for black roots?
Look gorgeous 4 life!: Thank you so much for your videos. Because of your advice, I have been able to bleach my dark hair to a blonde that I like.
NAT: her hair looks so beautiful for what seemed to be such an easy process
Virginia Garcia: I absolutely love this video, her hair turned out beautiful! Are the color gels the same as the new color gel lacquers? Thank you so much Sylvia for all the great advice and beautiful work! ❤️
Love My Home: Please make a video on your current root and toner routine!!!! Love your hair color. Thank you
Lora Hamilton: You are extremely talented, where are you located. I love the fact that you are an expert and understand the science behind the results.. I could never understand how so many young people entering this profession , have zero understanding of chemistry nor any interest in learning more about it . This is a truly cerebral profession and not a back up job , keep doing what you are doing , you are unique for certain !
Über Babe: Great job! Wow. You can tell client was quite happy with the end results.
Jana: How long did you keep the root color in? Usually root touch up color is only 5 or 10 minutes but it usually doesn't get that bright so I'm thinking perhaps you kept it in longer then that? I would really preciate an answer, I am not the first person to ask for timing, thanks! Loove your videos ❣
Eesah: Omg you did such a beautiful job
unicorn princess: Does anybody else love when someone combs/runs their fingers through their hair? It feels amazing.
Myriam: Beautiful color! I love your work ❤️

Hanne Marte Romsås: Perfect healthy blonde color! Lovely! :D
Nicole Lori: Beautiful job as always

CheyanneLovesThorTheDog: Beautiful color and tone ♀️
Mimi Ramone: Gorgeous! Beautiful work. She’s lucky to have you.

Elyzsabeth Ahne: Beautiful work!
Laurie W: I have a couple questions if you don't mind. What is her natural hair color level? It's hard to tell from a video. Why did you choose the color you did for her roots? How long did you process the root application?
Wendy D: Just subscribed! Very helpful and must save video. Is one shade lighter than the desired color supposed to be used on regrowth? Ive seen that. Thank you
Tunisian faten: You're so talented ...i salute you for this refined work ...you're respecting client's heads ! i envy them being in the states!
Be No: Love your Videos. Just a question (I am no professionell) and color my hair at home. Since I start with the color on back head and afterwards with the front hair, the color comes brigther, as I learned that the hair on the back head needs more time with the color than the front section, with finer hair. Does I get a different result while using the Toner in the same way like you did?
tod p: Excellent color and demonstration !
Sherry S.: Which Shades EQ would you use for a level 5-6 brunette with gray hair stripes coming in, and what toner?
Denise Marie Clarke: O M G ! ! ! Simply beautiful !
Tess Key: How do you prevent hair snapping from overlapping on hair that is already bleached? Are there any tips? I can do foils, but is there something else which you would use?
Joanne Adamidou: "Alkaline color to the roots to lift - acidic to the remaining hair to tone". THANK YOU!
Wendy: Loving that led Zeppelin shirt Sylvia you go girl love all your work!! Beautiful ❤️
Lyrical Miracle1: I just love you!! You have awesome videos and give such great advice. Wish you lived closer! Ever since I moved (13 years ago) I've been doing my own hair and it's a mess, lol. As of late, I have long roots, some gray, and breakage from hormones and I have NO idea what to do with it. Ugh!! Thanks for everything you do!!
Lisa Carey: beautifully done!!!!!
Josefine Oehlenschläger: Sooo gorgeous !!
silvia sirbu: Hey, Silvia! Will you be so kind in helping me to figure it out what acidic color should i use for the mids and ends of my hair since i do not find Redkens' Toners in my country. I ve only found Redken Gel Lacquers, but no Shades E Q Toners. Any idea will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Kennedy: Just curious! When you say we can use any developer - does this mean we can use other brand developers as well?
Pamela C: How do you keep the root touch up from spotting the blonde as you go from second to section
Kristy Burton: Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
leavemealoneplease: I want a video on what ingredients to look for/avoid in hair care products!
Lisa Hall: Beautiful colour!
Sonia Nelida Narbona Rios: Bellísimo trabajo.

Josh Hicks: What shade did you use on the roots in the lacquer Gel EQ?
Toni Patrice: Thank you so much for sharing❤️
Vicky Skye: the color came out so pretty like a child's natural blonde hair
Med: How long did you wait to wash out the toner?
Marcials Blends Hair: LOVED IT
Bianca Nunez: Can not wait till September because your blessing my hair ahhhhh!!!
Cindy Macaya: I was going to tone my hair at home today. I use the wells toner t18. Just wanted to ask, can I get the toner on my roots? My roots have not been dyed and are my natural brunette color.
Reba Taylor-Stewart: Beautiful shade!
Natasha Taylor: I have been struggling ever since keune reformulated 3001 hilift to 3011 its a 1 to 2 ratio with 40 volume . My hair is now a level 7-8 brassy . It no longer lifts like before . So I’m stuck after using the new formula . I have consulted intensely with keune educators . ( they are now telling me to use one of there bleaches) however I have a lot of hair but it is fine and natural curl and bleach is very harsh on my hair . Soooo my question is what would you suggest on my regrowth level 4 -5 to accomplish a light level 11 and what could I do to lift the brassy that is in my hair now to tie it all together .
lisa brouwer: Hey Silvia, your nails are always so beautiful. Do you have gel or shellac on them? Or what naiilpolish is it? So pretty
Janelli Marie: Looks so natural too. Love that hair color on her.
Katieva Valerio: Beautiful!
Dana: Lovely! I’m wondering if the same thing would work for gray or graying roots?
Thalia: My hair had about 8cm of root, and rest is bleached blonde like the model, I have exactly the same natural dark blonde hair as she has, I ordered and used exactly the same products as in the video and same amounts. But my roots turned very neon orange ( only 2mm next to root ) the rest of my hair is just like in the video, any reason why this happened? ( happens with every toner I use btw) How can it be that I have 8 cm root, but only 2mm of it turns neon orange next to the sculp XDDDD I mean wtf I used to think it was oils making the toner not catch but I had washed my hair yesterday :( and now even if I dry it, try to tone the roots again the 2mm next to my sculp will remain orange for some reason.....
Amy Poulsen: How much do you charge for something like this on shoulder length hair?
