Product Information

The secret’s out! Our purple shampoos aren’t just for blondes. Get the lowdown on using our Touch Of Silver products to make your brunette look amazing too. Different hair types have different levels of naturally occurring keratin. Curly or frizzy hair will have less keratin than naturally straight tresses, as will chemically treated hair (if it’s been dyed or permed). These types will see the biggest benefits of a keratin hair treatment.

How? Well, over time, lightened sections of brunette hair can turn brassy and the colour fades. This can occur especially in balayage or ombre hair, or if the hair has been dyed multiple times before. The hair can often become dry and damaged and reveal the underlying pigments which are warmer and more yellow/orange in hue. Of course, some people will like this tone, however, if you don’t, purple shampoo on brunette hair can be your saviour to take out any unwanted warm tones in your hair. First application I found it very drying, as I was applying the shampoo it felt like it was stripping it, my hair felt extremely dry but I think this is becausing it was doing its job and let’s face it it was getting through months of hair colour!For added shine, heat protection, and deeper nourishment, use our Touch Of Silver Leave-in Conditioner before drying. Simply spray onto wet or towel dried hair. The pro-vitamin B5 formula will help to make your hair smoother and more manageable after just one wash.

For highlighted and blonde hair, the results of using a blue pigment may be different and, potentially, less appealing. It is not recommended for golden or yellow-based blondes because blue shampoo can add a green tint to the hair. Remember, when yellow and blue mix, it creates a green color – a hair color mistake that is very difficult to correct. Thus, when your hair is highlighted to yellow, you should be very careful with blue toners and blue shampoos. My hair has been bleached and dyed in the past so it was getting lighter at the ends so was showing a variety of different colours in my hair (not a good look) Frequency of Use: Most blue shampoos are intended to be used two or three times a week, which is the case with Not Your Mother's Triple Threat Brunette Blue Treatment Shampoo, though weekly use is often plenty. Be sure to read the directions carefully to avoid overusing it, as the blue pigments could leave your hair with a purple tint. "Sometimes purple or blue toning shampoos can over-tone and cause the hair to look dingy," adds celebrity hair colorist Guy Tang. If your hair is highlighted to a pale yellow or almost white blonde, a blue shampoo can give it a slight blue tint. Thus, when you seek an icy blonde color, it is key to use a silver blue toner instead of a blue one. It will neutralize the underlying red and orange pigments in your hair and enhance the icy tones. Blue Shampoo vs Purple Shampoo I noticed a difference in the colour after about the third wash, the light hair had begun to darken and blend in with the rest of my hair.Our Touch of Silver Brightening Shampoo should be applied to wet hair and massaged in before leaving on for five minutes. Brunettes should use our brightening shampoo specifically on the lightened sections of hair. For many, this will mean applying silver shampoo directly to the lower lengths of hair, targeting the brassy sections. In fact, it can improve the overall quality of your hair by filling gaps that come with prolonged hair damage. 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. Made specifically for lightened brunette hair, this sulfate-free shampoo deposits blue-violet pigments to reduce brassiness and counteract unwanted warm tones. Results – it worked. I would only use once a week maybe once a fortnight, depending on the condition of your hair as it was a little drying. You certainly couldn’t use it every time because of this. I consulted with my hairdresser before using and she said it looked and read as though it would be useful to my coloured hair.
