Whether you have natural, highlighted or dyed blonde hair, trust us when we say that you need this ultra-violet pigmented purple shampoo and conditioner in your life.
Blonde hair has always been the most difficult shade to maintain, they require some serious upkeep to stay bright and free of brassiness.
What Does Purple Shampoo Do?
Thinking about that color wheel from art class is super helpful when discussing the why’s and how’s of color care. The color purple happens to sit directly across from yellow on the color wheel, meaning that when the two colors are mixed, they cancel each other out.
Blonde hair turns brassy because it basically soaks up everything. From the minerals in your shower water, to the constant battle against air pollutants, and any products you may put in it — we really should give blondes more credit, they’re out here fighting a never-ending war against brass.
In this case, the ultra-violet pigments in purple shampoo and conditioner neutralize all those yellow brassy tones on blonde and brassy gray hair.
Who Can Use Purple Shampoo?
Whether your blonde strands were born in a salon or grew naturally from your scalp, purple shampoo and conditioners are best for those with lighter strands.
You can use purple shampoo on gray hair or even platinum locks.
If you’re a brunette looking to cancel out red and orange brassy tones, it’s best for you to use blue shampoo and conditioner since purple products are best suited to neutralize yellow brassy tones.
If you’re not sure if purple shampoo is right for you, we’ve laid out the basics in our guide to purple and blue shampoo for blonde and brown hair.
How Often Should You Use Purple Shampoo?
The frequency that you use purple shampoo and conditioner depends on a multitude of things because no two blondes are exactly alike! Depending on your level of brassiness, most blondes love using Eva NYC’s Tone It Down Purple Shampoo + Conditioner anywhere from 1-3 times a week.
