my bleached hair wont hold a color tried t18 got purple hair bleached that out leaving my hair almost white what toner should i use?

This is great question I would be happy to assist you with today. Your hair will not hold color as it has been over processed and has the cuticle wide open not allowing pigment to stick to the hair follicle. You would want to replace the pigment that is missing from the hair. If it is white you would want to add a formula with red, copper and yellow as your hairs melanin is missing and it needs a base to stick to. I would also recommend some deep conditioning treatments before coloring your hair again to get some protein back into the hair and to shut that cuticle down along with keeping your hair from getting anymore damage. When you go to color your hair again I would also recommend a Post Service or Post Treatment to shut the cuticle down and then wait 48 hours before shampooing or conditioning after color application. As far as which toner you should use I do not have enough information at this time to assist you with a suggestion. Please give our Licensed Stylist's a call at 1-800-935-5273 we will be happy to assist you with any of your Wella Color Charm needs. I hope this was of help to you in finding the perfect tone for you to give you the results you are looking for. Have a Beautiful Wella Hair Day!

what developer do i have to buy for this?

I get the best results using a 20creme developer. Then when you want tone only, meaning no lift just depositing color and your hair is already lifted (lightened to what you want) then use a 10creme or even a 5. They sell small bottles of them at Sally's. Hope that helps!! :)

Can you use this without developer?

hi!:) ex-cosmo here:p you need to mix wella 050 violet additive with a permanent color as it is not a hair color on its own, as well as with a developer as you have to use to use any chemical hair color, toner, or additive that isnt semi-permanent direct dye like manic panic, punky color, crazy colors, kiss, adore ect.. for permanent silver hair, you use this additive in wella permanent hair color T18, or T15 for a darker slate grey, and it will last you as long as any permanent color, and give you your requested slate silver hair. using this additive alone with a developer isnt recommended as it has to piggy-back onto a permanent hair dye to be effective, and it will just wash out in 2 washes like a demi does. i speak from personal experience, i love this combo on my own hair and learned from making this same mistake and washed my money down the sink by not adding the additive to the permanent hair color:3 10 vol. for permanent hair color, 20 for stubborn greys. hope i helped!!<3

How do you apply wella color charm? years ago i applied it w a bottle applicator. thanks.

Hello... I apply it with a hair dye brush. I basically use an old bowl to mix the color with my developer and apply it with the brush (much like how they do it in the hair salon).
