How To Make Your Hair Copper Tone Free

PKMH Pro Hair 101

If you notice a color change in your hair (from red to blonde, for example), it might be due to copper orange tones. It might be a result of copper absorption from hair — copper is a natural component of coloring agents like peroxide. Red and copper hues are caused by oxidized peroxide molecules in hair, so red hair changes to copper orange tones when the peroxide molecules are removed leaving the hair looking frizzy and dull.

 

How is Copper Toned Hair created?

Copper toning involves exposing your hair to a process of brining it in a solution of copper sulfate, which is a form of copper that can be ingested in pill form or via a toning process. The length of time that your hair is toned will depend on the strength of the formula and the desired shade. Most toning processes last between one and three months.

Once your hair has been toned, the coloring molecules of the hair are distorted, which gives copper toned hair an interesting color that no other hair tones can achieve. Toners that contain copper can be bought online or at hair salons, though many people opt to buy copper toning kits.

 

How to Get Copper Orange Tones Out of Hair?

If your hair has copper orange tones, there are several ways you can get rid of them.

1. One of the easiest ways to do so is to visit a professional who can help you get rid of copper orange tones. Visit a hair color expert, as certain hair dyes might have a copper tint that can be fixed by changing the formula. However, if your copper hair color is permanent and you don’t want to change your look, you can even get them to lighten copper tones in your hair.


2. Try Changing Your Shampoo! The first and easiest way to get rid of brassiness is to switch up your shampoo. If you have hard water, try switching to a water softener or water that has low concentrations of minerals. This will remove any hard water minerals that could be causing brassiness in your hair. If you have a water that is too soft, try switching to a water with low mineral content. This will remove any soft water minerals that could be causing brassiness in your hair.


3. Darker Hair dyes are a great way to change your hair color, as well as style. However, there are certain dyes that may cause more harm than good. There are also dyes that contain natural ingredients that may have a negative impact on your hair retention. The first is to use a dark-hued dye like black or dark brown; the second is to mix a little bit of cool-hued hair dye with your regular color to create a new tone that is a little bit darker.


4. You can also try taking a natural supplement such as biotin. Biotin is a B-vitamin that can help your body absorb and eliminate copper from your hair. It can be taken in supplement form or in food. It is most commonly used to treat hair loss, but it can also be used to lighten skin, hair, nails, and teeth. The biotin treatment will reduce the brassy tones in your hair. Biotin is known for its anti-aging properties and is also helpful in getting rid of unwanted hair colors. It can help neutralize the effects of the orange tone in your hair and restore the natural tone of your locks.

5. Give apple cider vinegar a try. Apple cider vinegar has a high pH level, so it can be used to balance the pH level of your hair. Apply apple cider vinegar after you shower to reduce yellow tones in your hair. You can do this by massaging your scalp with apple cider vinegar. You can leave it on your scalp for 5 minutes or you can leave it on your hair for 1 minute. This will help remove copper orange tones from your hair. You can also do this by mixing apple cider vinegar with water and applying it to your hair.

 

Your hair color can easily be misconstrued as being “off” or “taken” if it’s too intense or not matching the rest of your hair color. It’s best to stick with lightening your ends and toning down the rest of your hair if you have a different hair color. This can be done with a bleach-free toner, a low-pH toner, or by simply limiting your intake of red foods.

Redheads have a genetic predisposition to their hair color, so avoid choosing colors that wash out that natural appearance. Instead, consider ginger or honey tones to warm up your look and neutralize red tones.
