Product Information

It all depends on the instructions on the specific bottle, but not overdoing it is key. "If you leave a purple shampoo on for too long, your hair will have a blue-purple tinge to it," Irwin cautions. What Katie says: "This is the product I never knew I needed. The Olaplex system is the ultimate product range for protecting and caring for bleached hair. So the idea of a toning shampoo with the Olaplex technology inside is mind-blowingly exciting. It has become a must-have for me, as I use it alongside the rest of the range. I particularly like to use it straight after I've had my colour done when my hair is at its most vulnerable. If you're looking for a product that you can 100% rely on, this is that product." Made specifically for lightened brunette hair, this sulfate-free shampoo deposits blue-violet pigments to reduce brassiness and counteract unwanted warm tones. caravanserai Great shampoo for gray hair I have been using this shampoo and the blue Malva conditioner for my gray ( almost white) hair for some years. Although it’s a dark purple colour there is no residue or tinting. Expensive, but it lasts a long time so I would say it works out at a fair cost per wash. It keeps my hair in great condition and helps to achieve a smooth, sleek bob.

What Sunil says: "A full believer in the restorative and transformative powers of Olaplex, after having recently gone blonde, I was thrilled when they launched this product. It doesn't leave my hair feeling dry - my hair ACTUALLY feels better after using - and the colour payoff is seriously impressive." The effect is softer, both in terms of the colour and how my hair feels afterwards. I wouldn’t recommend taking your purple shampoo right down to the ends. The hair there can be up to four years old so will grab onto too much of the purple pigment. This porousness means bleached hair soaks up unwanted minerals and metals in your tap water and acquires a yellow tinge over time. "It also means that blonde hair absorbs light instead of reflecting it and is more prone to damage," adds Shiel. How to use purple shampoo While there are many standout blue 'poos on the market, Matrix Brass Off shines above the rest. Formulated specifically for lightened brunette hair, this sulfate-free hair wash deposits blue-violet pigments to minimize brassiness. In other words, it creates a stunning cool-toned finish that brings out the intended effect of your color-treated hair. The vanilla-rose scent doesn't hurt either.

Brunette hair has more melanin than blonde strands, when it's lightened (in the salon or by the sun) the pigment is removed, resulting in a warmer or copper tone. Which may be perfect for the summer months but if copper isn't what you are going for, then a blue shampoo may be your answer.

Overall, our favorite blue shampoo is Matrix Total Results Brass Off Color Depositing Blue Shampoo. We love that it's formulated specifically for lightened brunette hair and that the sulfate-free blend uses blue-violet pigments to provide a brilliant cool-toned finish with no brassiness in sight. Having said that, Not Your Mother's Triple Threat Brunette Blue Treatment Shampoo is an excellent choice for those on a budget but still want to tweak the orange out of their warm brown highlights. Come summer, bottle blondes know the importance of preserving hair color at home. This is where the best purple shampoo for your hair, whether it’s a traditional cleanser or a deep conditioning treatment, comes into the equation. “Blondes have more fun, but the fun doesn’t last long!” jokes colorist Richy Kandasamy. “Blondes have a very light palette—and delicate, clean blonde color tends to fade faster, lose shine, and can look brassy or yellow very fast.” Below, find a breakdown of how purple shampoos work to keep hair color bright and vivid, as well as how best to work them into your routine. What is a purple shampoo? Those who bleach their hair and live in hard water areas (which creates more mineral build-up on strands), should only use it once a week. Meaning, one bottle will last you until your next colour appointment, if not longer.Shelly Aguirreof Chicago'sMaxine Salonis a professional stylist with 12 years of experience teaching at salons and tradeshows. I decant half my purple shampoo into half a bottle of Oribe Shampoo For Moisture Control," she says.

As mentioned, blue shampoos can be overly drying and may throw off a blue tint if used too frequently. Other than that, Bonilla says that it’s best to avoid shampoos that contain silicone and some harsh sulfates. Not only can they weigh your hair down, but they may also lead to breakage. Aesthetically, the risk of overusing a pigmented shampoo is that it can cause your hair to look dull. Session stylist Ali Pirzadeh concurs and recommends using your regularconditioner afterwards."I wouldn't bother with a purple conditioner as well, as you want to make sure your hair is still being nourished." What's the difference between toner and purple shampoo? Korab walks us through the process. "Blue shampoo should be used on brunette hair that has been lightened or highlighted by applying blue tone pigment into the hair to help tone down brassy tones," she instructs. "For virgin hair or slightly processed hair, it is beneficial to use once a week to make hair appear healthier and shinier and keep brassy tones from coming through." There are plenty of everyday hair products out there, but not every formula is suited for everyday use. Just as clarifying shampoos and hair growth shampoos are often best used as-needed, your blue shampoo may come with specific instructions, especially in terms of frequency and methodology. Blue vs. Purple: There are lots of blue and purple shampoos on the market. And while they achieve roughly the same outcome, blue is generally intended for brunettes, and purple is for blondes. However, some blue washes lean more toward indigo (and sometimes violet) than classic blue. Boasting a blend of "blue-violet pigments," Matrix Total Results Brass Off Color Depositing Blue Shampoo contains a bit of both. In any case, you can pretty much count on a reduction in brassiness and an overall cooler-toned finish.

Hairstylist Jennifer Korab agrees, adding, "As the weeks progress, it’s common for color-treated hair to become brassy regardless of color tone. Blue shampoo can counterbalance the brassy pigment and extend the life of the hair between salon visits."
