Purple shampoo recommendations?

26 replies

I have just had balayage done, I've got naturally medium/ dark brown hair and I've had some blonde put in, photo for ref.

I want to maintain it for as long as I can , I asked for balayage so I dont need to have it regularly coloured and potentially damage my hair. The hairdresser suggested I use a purple shampoo but she didn't suggest a particular brand

So I'm looking for purple shampoo recommendations please! Also would it be best to use a purple conditioner too, or does that not matter? Any other tips to keep the blonde bright and not brassy?

Thanks for the replies everyone! Fanola seems to be a popular choice so I think I'll give that one a try. I also picked up the provoke one whilst I was in B&M today as I saw it was cheap. I note the comments about not using it daily, which isn't a issue as I tend to only wash my hair once a week anyway and never more than twice. I'll also get some gloves so it doesn't stain my hands !

Provoke shouldn't dye your hands, I've certainly never had that issue. It is very drying but is solved instantly by conditioning for a few mins. Do be careful if you have a fabric type shower curtain. It seems to get everywhere and looks like a purple murder scene.

I either use daily and leave in for 20 seconds or so or weekly ish and leave in while I shower and shave which takes about 5 mins.
