Product Information

I can't get away with not using a toner really as my hair can be a bit too warm/yellow when I bleach it.

Jerome Russell Bblonde Maximum Colour Toner, Platinum Blonde

But if my hair was damaged and I felt it couldn’t take a permanent toner, I would consider using this product. My hair is pretty much an ULTRA light whitish blonde (Although it is platinum I would like to say its not WHITE like snow – My hair is just like Gwen’s in this photo).Works best when used with Jerome Russell Bblonde Highlighting Kits, Blonding Kits, Powder Bleach and Cream Peroxide. DIY bleaching to platinum's been ok, way cheaper than getting it done professionally and I can get it really light without a hairdresser saying "ooh well you can't in one go - it'll be 6-12 months of highlights". As you can see from the video, the toner was really easy to apply and shampooed in almost like a purple shampoo (After washing hair with a clarifying shampoo first and towel drying), you then apply a shower cap, apply heat (I did this with a hair dryer) for 5 minutes and let it take on the hair (Up to 30 minutes). let me make this clear the pics below aren't after using the Bblonde Platinum Toner but just goes to show what a difference the right toner can make as I've used exactly the same bleach and process in all of the pics on this review! Easy to use and ideal for refreshing your colour, as it neutralises yellow and brassy tones, restoring natural, subtle blonde tones.

However it's time consuming keeping up with roots, it's not pampering/relaxing/glamorous at all in the way getting your hair done is, my hair's been purple/grey/yellow a few times and to be honest the damage I'm probably doing to my hair worries me a bit - condition wise it feels fine, especially for bleached hair, but I don't really want to end up bald! Just thought I'd add these photos in too, they're of a couple of previous toning disasters with other products - grey hair on the left and lilac roots on the right (excuse the silly face I was in shock a bit! Refreshes and improves shade and condition of blonde hair whilst neutralising yellow and brassy tones. I'm bleaching my own hair to a light blonde/platinum colour at the minute and I've found that the toner I've been using ( La Riche Directions White Toner) is "taking" too much at the roots - I'm ending up with a bit of a purple halo at the front and top of my hair!

Its a true likeness in shade to how it looks in real life and I feel the images don’t really show the lightness (The light inside was pretty dull today). I was sent this Jerome Russell Bblonde Platinum Blonde Colour Toner to review, excellent timing to give it a go - I've heard of the brand before but as someone pretty new to the whole home dying thing I hadn't tried it until now. There are a few more steps in my process to my normal toner (which is really just a "slap it on with a tinting brush and leave for 15 mins" type of affair) so in addition to about 90 mins to lighten, there's another 30 mins of toning on top. Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much.
