John Frieda Violet Crush for Blondes Intensive Purple Shampoo Reviews
#18 in Shampoo

Description

Knock out stubborn brassy tones in 1 use for cooler, brighter blonde.

With crushed violet and blue pigments, this rich intensive formula reduces both yellow and orange tones to keep blonde looking cooler and brighter. Safe for use on natural, colour treated, platinum blonde, and lightened brunette hair. Peroxide-free and ammonia-free formula.

HOW TO USE: Gently massage into wet hair, lather, and rinse well. For more intense results, and to fight stubborn brassiness, leave shampoo on hair for 2-3 minutes. Use daily until your desired colour result is achieved. To maintain those results, use this shampoo daily. For best results, follow with Violet Crush Purple Conditioner.

Rinse hands immediately after applying shampoo to hair to avoid purple pigment on your hands.

    Banish Brassiness

    I've used a lot of John Frieda products so was interested to try this to see how it would help with brassy tones on my blonde hair. First off, it's a huge tube so will last for ages. The decadent purple shampoo feels rich and nourishing when using, and tones down brassy tones, leaving my hair with cooler ashy tones.

    Better then others I have tried

    I’ve used a few different kinds of purple shampoo and I find most leave my hair with a purple tinge that I don’t like but this shampoo was different as there was no tinge left on my hair at all! It also removed the yellow/brassy tone from my hair 🙌🏻
    The shampoo it’s self has a really nice scent not as strong as I would of liked but still nice smelling and it makes a good form which made cleaning my hair easy.

    It seems good!

    I’m not sure if it worked on the first wash but after the second time using it, it seemed to have taken some brassiness away. The smell and texture was really lovely though! All in all, it’s a nice product!

    Highly recommend

    I highly recommend this product, for taking away the brassy tones in my hair. It is actually very purple in colour like all these types of shampoos but it gives a good lather, is easy to rinse out and leaves my hair in great condition. It is a massive tube as well.

    Amazing!!

    I've used silver shampoo for years, and and as everyone who does nows you get the typical purple string tone that is light texture I've tried Lee stafford and silver , this!!! Is such a thick texture and the purple tone is so much stronger , I was amazed at how well it removed the yellow orange flashes in my hair I am now nicely ash blonde with blonde flashes with no horrid tones , I love it!!!

    My hair felt soft!

    I found this toned down the brassiness of my hair, my hair felt soft and clean after using. It was manageable afterwards, the shampoo also smells nice and lathered well. A great product to tone that brassy hair.

    Violet crush for your brassy blondes

    I have to be honest and say that I am not a regular user of violet (or other blonde) shampoos just because usually they leave my scalp very dry and irritated. So when trying this product I was a bit sceptical and scared but thank's God - all worked well.
    The product well applies to your hair and when left for 2-3 minutes (as instructed) doesn't irritate your scalp or eyes (some products have a very distinctive scent). It was fairly easy to wash it off, however, every violet shampoo needs a bit more scrubbing and rinsing so you don't have violet patches on your scalp.
    Anyway - the result was good and I could notice that some brassiness was gone but most importantly - my scalp felt completely fine. I was expecting it to start itching the next day but to my surprise - my usually very sensitive and dry scalp was happy.
