Quick PSA:

No amount of toner will make up for not letting lightener process long enough.

Toner is not designed to lighten, it is designed to cancel out unwanted tones.

Lightener lightens.

If you do not wait patiently for your lightener to reach the required level then your toner will just make you feel darker or worse, turn you gold later when you try to remove it to go lighter.

Just sit patiently. Trust us.
