Why Use Green Toning for Dark Hair?

Red brassiness in dark hair can appear as warm, unwanted reddish or orange undertones that dull your natural or color-treated hair. Green toning products counteract these tones by depositing cool pigments that balance and neutralize the warmth, leaving hair looking richer and more polished.
