COLORCHARM Permanent Crème Hair Toner | Free of Animal-Derived Ingredients, Parabens Free & Gluten Free | 2 oz

This isn’t my first time using Colorcharm T16 toner. I absolutely love the results that I get with this toner because it covers my grays, gives me that cool icey color while canceling out the brassiness. It also leaves my hair soft instead of dry and my hair, soft and manageable. I used to go to a salon and pay tons of money for them to try to achieve the color that I have been able to achieve on my own. They were never able to quite get me to that color to the icy color I have been looking for. love this product!!!

This is a great toner color. Wella does it again!

This toner is beautiful! So icy! Package says to use only Wella Charm 10 volume as developer. I used a 6 volume demi-developer to decrease incidents of damage, and the color was beautiful! Fun facts: if you don't have any yellow/gold tones in your hair, this toner will pull the steely grey/ash tones. If you have stubborn yellow stains in your hair that cannot be removed chemically, this will not remove them, though they will be a beautiful, shiny, pale gold. Remember that this is a level 10 toner, it does not lighten existing tones, but rather improves them. If your hair is darker than a level 9.5 or 10 (if you don't know what that is, you shouldn't be coloring your own hair), this product will have little to no effect on your hair and you'll be writing an angry review that says it does not work. Hair must be previously lightened to a level 9.5/10 (see lifted color scale) if you want a tone resembling the ad. Its not magic, it's toner. Beautiful toner.

This turned out so much better than I ever thought it would. I started with Golden blonde hair with dark roots in the back (1st photo). I bleached the roots only for 20 minutes, until they became light gold. Then mixed this with 2oz 20 volume and 2oz 10 volume developers. Put it all over for 20 minutes and this is what I ended up with (2nd photo). It looks amazing in person, so hard to capture on photo. Looks like there is blue on it but there isn't. I will always use this method now because my hair is like satin. Thank you for reading, Kimberly

I'm a 54 yo woman with long, fine, naturally curly 3b hair. I've been coloring it for years with Loreal Cream Permanent 9NN. My roots however, are mostly white. Not grey or silver, but very white, so even a T18 was more color than the root and I'm ready to allow the grow-out to happen. My daughter did a bleach on the mid-shaft down to get the blonde out and put an Olaplex treatment as a layer of protection. We put the toner on using 20 volume and left it a total of 40 minutes covered with a platic bag. This toner is much gentler than the liquid. It barely had a smell. I washed it with purple shampoo starting from the ends first working my way towards the roots, making sure of full saturation using cool water. I let that sit as I showered, not hurrying. After thoroughly rinsing in cool water, I gently worked a curl friendly conditioner through and finished my routine. The color came out absolutely beautiful! It's even and a true polar ice; matching my natural roots better than I could have imagined. We went to the city the next day to shop for my g-sons graduation party and I had a salon appointment for a shape-up. Everywhere we went, we were asked about my hair: whether it was my natural color or which salon I went to. My daughter was beaming as the complements came her way. She only does her and my hair as a hobby-not trained. If you're looking for a toner that's going to be gentle on your hair and come out the color you want, this is a good one. You can't hurry it, but it's worth the ending. My hair is soft and shiny. Someone asks about it everytime I go out. Most importantly, I absolutely love it and see myself going through the trouble of keeping it up. *unpaid/unsolicited review *

t16 needs to be used on level 10 hair that has almost no yellow at all. Inside of banana peel level 10, nearly white. T16 has almost no pigment in it, it seems. I put it on my lighted highlights only and it barely changed anything. T81 did okay on my level 8/9 brassy hair underneath the highlights. They are still brassy, but not as bad. T14 did pretty good on my level 8/9 roots. It was barely orange tinted at all at the root. Nearly just yellow- except under certain lighting. T14 toned it to an ALMOST neutral color. I used vol 10 on towel dried, freshly cleaned hair (no conditioner), left on hair for 35 minutes to process. Washed out and applied deeply pigmented violet conditioner (no shampoo), coated in Anti-Snap by Redken, then hair dried. The only one out of these three that is tried and true every time is T14. The others are just not dependable results. Does anyone remember the dependability from Blond Brilliance Platinum ? That toner could tone the reds out of my BROWN hair. It was so ashy!!! I miss that brand. Where did they go?

Easy to use and mixes well. Didn't get me as platinum as I wanted but it's definitely the lightest I've gotten my hair.

Works as expected

I used this cream toner many times before, and I love the texture and overall result of it. However, it was not leaving my hair with the exact result I wanted (white-ish), it was leaving it more blonde than white, so I changed for the T18 Liquid Toner. However, I prefer this product and its texture over the liquid one.

I bought this toner after hearing so many amazing things about it how it’s so gentle on the scalp. How much better the formula is on your hair and for your hair, They say it can only be used with 10 volume developer however, that just deposits the colour and provides very little lift. If you’re looking to get your hair, lighter and toned, you can absolutely use 20 developer. I realized that this wouldn’t be a good toner for me so I asked Amazon to Refund me. T16 polar ice you need to make sure that your hair is a very light yellow. Preferably a 9 to 10 level. You might be able to get results if you’re an 8 but anything lower than that this toner won’t do anything. Just a heads up because there are so many people that try and use this and are upset that they don’t get any results. If your hair is more of a dark, yellow or orange, you’ll have to go with a blue type of toner.

The product did not give desired results. In fact, it did not colour at all. I used the colour as per instructions but it did not match with the result shown on the pack colour. My hair looks the same and has not tint of the colour.

I removed a star because it took the whole package to tone my hair. For context, I have medium-short length but with a split dye down the middle; I usually don't need that much product. After 3 attempts, I'm quite pleased with the color.

Update: January 2025, I am updating to say two things. This is a beautiful toner, the Polar Ice shade, however the seller seems to have stopped selling it since I first bought about 6 months ago. I checked multiple times and it was never there. 2nd thing, it works well for lower damage, especially when paired with a 10 vol developer, it's substantially less damaging than Wella T18 however it doesn't last as long. It will tone level 8-10, better with 9-10. I use a water filter in my shower, I wash would cool water, use purple shampoo and conditioner as well, k18 + occasional clarifying shampoo to remove build up, it lasts about 3 weeks before brass starts popping up. T18 lasts about 5-6 weeks in my hair with minimal brassy sections. It's an okay toner but I did find it more budget using - beauty wellness - for buying either. ______________________ Original Review: (July 29 / 2024) It’s actually cheaper on Amazon than locally at Sally’s right now. I weighed the product because lately a lot of companies do shrinkflation but I’m happy to say it was more than the product weight and I felt satisfied that it was the actual amount of advertised toner. Worked great, used with a 10 vol on my very damaged bleached hair I didn’t experience a lot of extra hair breakage. It even temporarily unified some not lifted enough areas leaving my hair a bright white/slightly lavender hue. My hair wasn’t bleached properly so I’m very impressed with how low damage and higher cover this is.
