Just as it states in title people's opinions, reasons they would/wouldn't use it? (Personally love 12/89 to quickly clean and even out tone)

I wouldn't use it to tone because of the high ammonia content. It unnecessarily damages hair that has already been bleached . Also, highlift isn't designed to tone prelightened hair. Wella has many amazing products in many shades that are designed for toning.


Btw this toning technique has often been debated in this forum. While toning with highlift has it followers, the large mjority of geeks on here ar3 of the opnion that it is a poor option. Try illumina 10/69. If you don't love the tone and the shine, by all means, continue as you please, but you should at least experiment with other options.

Agree with tsparker.

Plus why use 12/89 when a 10/89 would do the same thing, without the unnecessary damage. As long as you add special mix cause special blondes have more tonal value than the 10 line.

What special mix would you use ??
 
Completely agree with both of your suggestions, I'll definitely try it out

If you're looking for a 10/89, in KP i'd probably mix 10/8 with 10/96 with some 0/81. But they've got a /89 special mix now in CT so i'd use 10/0 and a fair bit of that.

If you wanted 10/81 i'd use 10/81 in CF. But for it to be true like a highlift i'd do 10/8 with some 0/81 in kp. Or illumina 10/ with a few cm 7/81. CT 8/81.

If you wanted 10/96 i'd use 10/96 with a few cm 8/96.

Is that for tints or tones ?
 
I know i shouldn't but I do tone with the 12 line in Wella I feel they grab quicker using them! Please don't shout at me though Cams and TSparker!

They grab quicker but they fade quicker
