9. Joico Color Balance Blue Conditioner
BEST TONER FOR BRASSY BLONDE HAIR
PROS

- Protects against discoloration
CONS
- Doesn’t hydrate and condition hair enough
Say goodbye to unwanted orange streaks. This Joico conditioner’s tone-correcting blue pigments attach to hair fibers to neutralize brassy tones. Plus, a powerful peptide complex repairs damage, fights frizz and adds shine. “It leaves hair conditioned and no color residue left behind,” shares one Walmart user. Other users felt it was a great toner but didn’t smooth or nourish hair as well as other conditioners.

10. COLOR WOW Dream Filter Pre Shampoo Mineral Remover
BEST TONER FOR HIGHLIGHTED BLONDE HAIR
PROS
- Easy to use
- Instantly brightens hair
CONS
- Bottle doesn’t last long
This spray is called Dream Filter for a reason: it gets rid of metals and minerals that can distort hair color and brightens hair in minutes. “I sometimes have issues with buildup that can dull my blonde highlights, and this spray instantly helps remove it so they look fresher and not darkened like they can get over time,” says Franzino. “I love that it’s easy to use — you just spritz it all over hair before shampooing.” While reviewers love how effective it is, a few noted that you really have to saturate strands and use a lot of product at once so the bottle doesn’t last that many uses.
