What happens if you put toner on orange hair?
A toner can neutralize the unwanted brassy orange and yellow tones in your hair and give you a cool-toned hair color. It is a translucent deposit of hair color that contains just enough pigment to improve your hair color. You can use it mixed with peroxide right after you bleach your hair.
Blue and blue based colors and toners cancel out orange and yellow orange. Violet, purple and purple based toners cancel out yellow and pale yellow.
Wella T18 is packed with purple pigments, which will neutralise those yellow tones and leave you with an icy blonde result. The Wella T18 Toner is the only toner of the range that's purple based and it's the most powerful at combatting yellow tones.
What color cancels out brassy orange hair? To cancel out unwanted brassy orange hair after bleaching, you would use blue color. Blue and orange are across from one another on the color wheel, meaning they cancel each other out.
The most well-known ways to fix orange roots are dyeing them darker, bleaching them once again (for healthy hair), toning them with purple/blue toner, using a hair color remover, or applying natural lightening cures, for example, a 1:1 mix of honey and conditioner.
Wella T14 has a blue-violet base, which means it will counteract (or reduce) gold / yellow orange tones.
Mix the toner with developer (either 20 or 10 Vol) - using an applicator bottle is the easiest way to mix and apply your toner. Apply your toning mixture using a tint brush to damp, towel dried hair. Leave on for up to 30 minutes and rinse out.
When they should be used – T14 should be used when you have unwanted orange/gold, brassy tones in your hair and want an ashy blonde result. T18, on the other hand, is best for when your hair has unwanted yellow tones, and you want a super light ash blonde or a platinum blonde.

How do I get rid of yellow tones in my hair?
When deciding how to tone yellow hair to ash, try using a violet shampoo first. As purple is the opposite of yellow on the colour spectrum, the shampoo's purple pigment draws out the yellow brassiness from your blonde, neutralises those unwanted tones, and makes your colour look cooler, healthier and more vibrant.
Use a Color-Correcting Purple Shampoo
Yellow and violet are opposites on the color wheel, so purple is used to cancel out overly warm, brassy tones. Purple shampoo is a toning hair product that can be used at home. Invest in a purple shampoo to help crush brassy tones for a cooler, brighter blonde.
