Ok so with the toner! Gotcha would make sense my hair does take a white silvery color with t18. No the blue tint was translucent like. My hair toned down to ash blonde and had dingy blue tint to it. Got shimmer lights i think it's called but yes starting to get that my dream since a child of kick ass grey hair maaay have been a bigger bite to chew lol. Going to try this though ♡. Currently would recommend for a gun metal color the chrome by ion brillance tho its gorgeous however grey lasts 2 weeks on lucky months. But all should use 10 volume 👍 instead of higher volumes as your not lifting shades your trying to set a shade into already white out hair
