Glow Toner: Discover The Glow That Transforms Your Blonde

This BLONDME Glossing Service offers a truly acidic, demi-permanent toner that refines any blonde in just 10 minutes, enhancing shine and softness without lifting or damaging the hair.

Ideal for pre-lightened hair, it's powered by Acidic Glow Technology for an intense reflective finish and Anti-Metal Bond Protection Technology for more even toning results.

Used with the BLONDME Care regime, it also helps reduce frizz, leaving hair with a smoother, glossier surface.

Strong Bonds For Strong Blondes

With BLONDME, every stage of the blonde process is connected, from lightening and toning to in-salon bonding and long-term care. Powered by Schwarzkopf Bonding Technology, the range provides the tools to master any blonde challenge.

Bonding isn't an add-on; it's built into the system. The entire BLONDE colour range is powered by Schwarzkopf Bonding Technology, giving maximum confidence when lifting and colouring.

At the core of every colour product is Anti-Metal Bond Protection Technology, which forms a protective layer around the hair's inner bonds, helping to minimise breakage throughout the process.

An integrated Anti-Metal agent neutralises common metals like Copper, Calcium, Magnesium, Nickel, Lead and Zinc, which are often found in tap water and can interfere with colour performance. By neutralising these metals, the technology reduces breakage and helps deliver a more even, reliable colour result.

There's no need for bonding additives or anti-metal treatments — everything is already built in.
