Balayage highlights can give you a soft, natural, sun-kissed look, with a darker root that gradually gets lighter towards the ends. It can be done in many ways, from a natural caramel color that can look very soft, or you can go very light on your ends, with a tone that will compliment your skin and eye color, whether you like ashier tones or warmer tones.

You and your stylist will have a plan to maintain your hair between visits, and they will prescribe the proper routine and products that will keep your hair looking better, longer. Products such as anti-brass shampoo and deep conditioners that will help to maintain your color and hair’s integrity between salon visits!

What Is Purple Shampoo And Why It Is A Must Have For Blonde Hair

Posted December 5, 2018 by Amaci Salon Team

If you have blonde, silver or white hair that tends to get yellow, purple shampoo can be your new BFF. It will keep your balayage highlights looking fresh between appointments, and save you from having to come in to get it re-toned. The shampoos traditionally have a blue or violet color, which neutralizes the yellow tones making the hair look clean and bright. Let’s take a look at what purple shampoo is, who should be using it, how often it should be used and the 4 main causes of yellowing hair so you can do what you can to make the changes to fix it, long-term.

What is Purple Shampoo?

Purple shampoo is the colored shampoo that distributes purple pigment to neutralize brassy, yellow tones. Purple is used because, if you take a look at the color wheel, it is the direct opposite color of yellow. This means purple and yellow cancels one another out. So when using purple pigment on brassy, yellow tones it color corrects your hair’s hue
restoring it to its former bright, cooler color.

Who should use Purple Shampoo?

Purple shampoo is for those with light hair, salon achieved or natural. This is such as blonde, platinum, silver / gray, white, or pastel. Because purple shampoo is made for light colored hair, if you’re brunette you won’t see any results. But, if you’re brunette with blonde highlights it will maintain your highlights color. And if you have bleached hair,
purple shampoo is a must-have.

How often should you use Purple Shampoo?

If you can’t seem to keep your hair bright, purple shampoo offers a good solution to keep unwanted warmth under wraps. Alternate using it with color safe shampoos—or mix them together for less violet deposit. Start by using once a week and build up if needed. If you start to notice a purple tone in your hair, put the purple shampoo down! Opt for a clarifying shampoo to remove the tone and keep your purple shampoo routine to once a week or less.

Say goodbye to the blonde’s hair blues (or in this case yellows) and say hello bright bombshell hair!
