Found out the hard way that toner fades way faster on low-porosity hair

I've been doing my own balayage for a couple years now, but last month I finally went to a pro for a toner touch-up. She used a violet toner on my low-porosity hair and it looked amazing for like 3 days, then it washed out almost completely. She said low-porosity hair basically repels toner unless you really rough up the cuticle first, which I never knew. It took me 5 separate appointments over 6 weeks to figure out that I need a protein treatment before toning. Has anyone else had this problem with low-porosity hair? What toner brand actually sticks for you?
