Prokpil Dark Gray Toning Mask for Blonde Hair 300ml — Neutralizes Brassiness & Amino Acid Repair

Prokpil Treatment Smoke Maintenance Nuance Dark Gray Mask is a 300ml toning treatment designed to neutralize warm yellow tones in blondes while reinforcing color with amino acids.

This specialized matizador blends cool, deep-gray pigments with conditioning amino acids to refresh ashy, highlighted, or balayage blonde that has developed brassy or yellow undertones. It works as a maintenance mask between salon visits to subtly shift tone, add depth to a dark-base blonde, and help maintain visual vibrancy. Suitable for rushed at-home upkeep or professional touch-ups, the formula aims to deposit smoky gray pigments while delivering moisture and strengthening amino constituents.

How does this mask neutralize brassiness without over-toning?

The product uses balanced gray pigments targeted to counteract warm yellow and orange reflections commonly seen on lightened hair. Because the pigment concentration is formulated for maintenance rather than heavy correction, it tints evenly when left on according to instructions and rinses to an ashier finish rather than an artificial slate tone.

• Dark gray pigment blend neutralizes yellow-orange hues.
• Short processing times reduce risk of over-toning.
• Amino acids support even color deposition across highlights.
• Designed for repeated use as part of color-care routine.

What conditioning benefits do the amino acids provide?

Amino acids help rebuild surface strength and improve hair elasticity after lightening services, giving treated strands a smoother, more controlled appearance. They work alongside humectants and emollients in the mask to reduce frizz and make color appear shinier and more uniform.

• Amino acids increase strand resilience and manageability.
• Leaves hair softer to the touch and easier to comb.
• Helps preserve the visual integrity of highlights and lowlights.
• Supports repeated application without severe drying.

How should I use this mask to get the best results at home?

Apply to clean, towel-dried hair focusing on mid-lengths to ends, and work through any lighter sections where brassiness appears. Leave on for the recommended time based on desired intensity—shorter for subtle ash, longer for stronger neutralization—then rinse thoroughly and style as usual.

• Use on damp, shampooed hair for even uptake.
• Process 3–10 minutes depending on porosity and target tone.
• Wear gloves to avoid staining hands and use an old towel.
• Frequency: once weekly or as needed for maintenance.

Will this work on darker blondes or hair with a dark base?

The powdery-gray tint is formulated to subtly modify tone on blondes that retain a darker root or lowlight base, adding coolness without dramatically lightening or covering natural depth. It’s most effective on porous, lightened areas like balayage, foils, and all-over bleached hair; results on virgin darker hair will be more muted.

• Adds cool dimension to dark-rooted blondes and highlighted sections.
• Won't visibly lighten naturally dark hair; it tones surface pigments.
• Effective on salon-lightened strands and pre-lightened lengths.
• Adjust contact time for subtle or stronger gray effect.

Who is this for: Prokpil Smoke Nuance Dark Gray Mask is aimed at people with blonde, highlighted, or balayage hair who want to tame warmth between color appointments while adding conditioning support. It’s ideal for clients or home users who prefer an ashy, smoky finish rather than high-contrast silver, and for anyone seeking a maintenance product that deposits cool tone while helping hair feel strengthened and smoother.
