All of the following are toners EXCEPT?

  1. Low lightening

  2. Beige toner

  3. Gray toner

  4. Pastel toner

The correct answer is: Low lightening

Toners are typically used in hair coloring to adjust or enhance the existing base color. They help neutralize unwanted tones and add a desired hue to the hair. The options given all represent types of toners that are commonly utilized in the hair coloring process. Low lightening refers to a technique rather than a toner. It involves adding darker shades to the hair to create depth and dimension, rather than adjusting color hues. This distinguishes it from the other choices, which are specific tonal adjustments that can be applied to achieve results such as beige for warmth, gray for a cooler tone, and pastel for a softer, lighter shade. Therefore, low lightening does not fit the category of toners as the others do.
