Beauty Works Anti-Yellow Shampoo 200ml

Product Information

If you’re adding a purple shampoo to your regimen, start by using it once a week and only build up if needed. Remember that while purple shampoo is a beneficial tool in keeping color fresh, it’s important not to go overboard. “If you start to notice too much or an overload of purple tone in your hair, put the purple shampoo down,” he says. “Opt for a clarifying shampoo to remove the tone and keep your purple shampoo routine to once a week or less. Alternate using it with color-safe shampoos—or mix them together for less violet deposit.” How do you choose the right purple shampoo formula for your hair? As with all hair products, there are an overwhelming number of purple shampoos on the market, making it hard to determine which one's right for you. Thus, I asked Ellis to break down the basics. It’s very common for colour treated hair to change tone, especially through exposure to the sun, environmental pollutants and water with high mineral levels or chlorine,' says Gina. 'When hair is lightened, the natural colour is removed to accommodate the new colour, but as all hair colour has an underlying warmth, this will eventually start to show through. Using a purple shampoo will balance the yellow and orange tones in the hair.' How many times do you use purple shampoo? If you can’t avoid it, coat the ends in conditioner first to create a hydrating base and to dilute the shampoo. Then apply your purple shampoo in an 's' shape on mid-lengths and work it in with your fingers to deposit the pigment evenly." For how long should you leave purple shampoo in?

Unfortunately, the colour fading is an unavoidable evil, but purple shampoo is a great way to keep your blonde hair looking salon fresh for longer. It works by depositing violet tones that neutralise brass for brighter tresses without the need for bleach. Purple shampoo washes in and rinses out just like any other shampoo, making it suitable for use on all hair types and textures. We used the purple shampoo twice a week and found that it kept our honey blonde highlights looking creamy and cool – even two months post colour. It lathered well in the hair, smelt refreshing and didn’t feel drying once rinsed, although we’d still recommend following up with a nourishing conditioner to pamper our hair and seal the hair cuticle. Top tip: we massaged the foaming shampoo into our hair for two minutes to make sure each strand was properly coated. 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. And fun fact: Purple shampoo works on a variety of light colors, including classic blonde, as well as balayaged and highlighted hair, and even gray, silver, and white shades, says Mondo. Is it OK to use purple shampoo every day? 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.There are a lot out there - we've just rounded up ten of our favourites but there are plenty more. The type you get really depends on your budget (because they can be exxy) but also what kind of hair you have. Purple shampoos can be a little drying, so if you have dry hair, you want one that has hydration added into it. Some are also more intense than others and some are better suited to brightening grey than dulling brass. It's best to read the label carefully before you choose, but you can't really go wrong - if you have blonde hair, any purple shampoo is better than none at all.

It's important to understand that purple shampoo will work differently on all hair types. This is particularly the case if you have dry, bleached, or color-treated hair. Considering many people in the market for purple shampoo have chemically processed hair, it's important to know that you can actually overuse the shampoo, resulting in more of a purple tinting rather than a toning. The best way to avoid this? Start slow and work up from there if you find your hair needs it.But Zoe Irwin, creative director at John Frieda Salons, advises clients to be careful as purple-based products can be drying. This shampoo is marketed for people with blonde, gray, and highlighted hair, and boasts a strong color-depositing formula. Indeed, multiple reviewers write about how impressed they are with it, saying that they noticed a marked improvement in their hair color after just one wash. Because it’s so highly pigmented, the brand recommends using gloves when applying this shampoo to wet hair before lathering well and rinsing as thoroughly as possible. If you find that your hair is in even more need of anti-brassy TLC, repeat the process and leave the formula on for three to five minutes before rinsing. The best way to use a purple shampoo is on wet hair. Simply lather it up and leave on for about two to four minutes, depending on the amount of colour-correcting needed. The more you use purple shampoo, the more it makes your blonde look dull, because you are continuously depositing color shampoo," Kelly points out. So, while it's important to keep a bottle on hand, that doesn't mean you can eschew your hair appointments altogether.

What Sunil says: "I was recommended this product by a beauty editor with many years of industry experience, so naturally I had to give it a go. IMHO it is THE very best purple shampoo on the market if you want that real shot of iciness. To get my hair blonde, it needs some serious bleaching, and suffice to say, it needs all the help and conditioning it can get. This instantly banishes any trace of brassiness. As long as I dye my hair blonde, there will be a bottle of this in my bathroom." 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."

What purple shampoo should I get?

Make sure to use a purple conditioner after your purple shampoo," says Mondo. (Two of my favorites? Bumble and Bumble's Illuminated Blonde Purple Conditioner and Morrocanoil Blonde Perfecting Purple Conditioner.) "Shampoo is mainly focused on the root area, so you want to make sure you're also covering those ends with that violet pigment to ensure even results from roots to ends." Morgan agrees, explaining that sometimes these shampoos can be drying to some hair textures, so he prefers to follow up with a hydrating hair mask. How to find the best purple shampoo Understand how it works Mondo warns that because purple shampoo deposits pigment onto the hair, if you use it too often, or keep it on too long, your hair can turn a little too purple, especially if it's particularly dry or damaged. To avoid this, he recommends using the product until the desired level of tone is achieved, and then "weekly, or every other week, for maintenance." What should you use after purple shampoo? First, you don't want to use a purple shampoo every day. Our experts suggest swapping one in for your regular shampoo once every few weeks, or when you want to brighten your shade or minimize brassiness or yellowing. As for how to use a purple shampoo, for best results, allow it to sit for three to five minutes before rinsing to fully penetrate the hair.
