How To Use Wella Color Charm Toners?
Using a hair toner can seem a little confusing, but it is a pretty straightforward process. Hair toner is a color corrector for your hair that is used to achieve your desired hair tone. If you notice strange tones peeking out in your hair, such as brassy colored hair, you can use a toner to correct the color.
How Do I Choose a Toner?
The two main considerations when choosing the correct hair toner include the color wheel and your hair level. You should pick a toner that is the opposite of the current tone in your hair. Opposites will cancel out or neutralize each other to create the ideal hair tone. For example, if you have blonde hair, you will need to choose a purple toner because that is the opposite of yellow on the color wheel.
Next, you will need to assess your hair level on a scale of 1 to 10, with one being the absolute darkest and ten being the lightest. Ensure that it matches or is darker than your natural hair. Otherwise, it will not have an effect on your hair.

How to Apply Wella Charm Toners?
Once you have decided on a shade, you will need to purchase some supplies to apply the toner. Make sure to grab a developer, dye brush and bowl, and a pair of gloves.
Before using the toner, remember to perform a strand test. To do this, mix the developer and toner according to the instructions until it forms a gel. Select a strand of hair to test it on and see if the results look the way you want. If you are happy with the way it looks, it is time to apply the toner using the following steps:
- Apply in sections – you want to paint the toner over your hair in thin layers. Ensure that the entire section is wet. You can start from back to front or vice versa, depending on what feels more comfortable.
- Let it Work – Toner may change colors during the processing time, and that is completely normal. You will have to leave it on for 8-10 minutes to achieve a lighter shade, and 20-25 minutes to achieve a darker shade.
- Wash it Off – Once you are done allowing your hair to process, you need to thoroughly wash and condition your hair to rid all product out of your hair.
- Style Your Hair – Whether you prefer to air dry or style your hair, proceed with your hair care as usual. Once it is thoroughly dried, you should see the full effect of your hair.
