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.

    Very, Very Purple!

    This shampoo is so intensely purple! I was worried about it staining my hands or the tub but it didn’t which is great! It didn’t make a mess, smells great, and lathered surprisingly well. I didn’t notice a HUGE difference in my hair, but that may be because my blonde is only highlights, but for those with all-over naturally blonde hair it would probably be more effective. I did notice that the parts of my hair that are blonde are a bit lighter and brighter. I also noticed that my hair is nice and soft and shiny after using this shampoo which is a nice added bonus! I think with using this product long-term i’ll see more noticeable results. :)

    Lovely effect

    I recently used this product to try for the first time and I love it. It thoroughly cleans my hair and it has a lovely scent. It gives my hair a cool hue which is what it’s supposed to do. I will definitely purchase it again and I do recommend it to others to try.

    It kicks brass! Did a great job of toning my hair

    I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to tackle the brassiness that come with being blonde. I’ve used other purple shampoos that have a plastic sort of smell, but this one smells divine!

    Excellent Product

    I purchased this product to see if it would take out some of the yellow brassy tones in my highlighted hair. After one use it made my blonde brighter and got rid of the unwanted yellow colour. I would highly recommend this product. It worked exactly as described

    Super happy with purple shampoo

    This has been very effective on my hair. The blonds look better and the hair is not too dry either. Overall really happy with the results.i use it combination with the conditioner and the results have been nice. It has prevented the natural colours coming back into the blond.

    I would buy this again!

    I purchased this to keep my recently coloured blonde, truly blonde instead of turning brassy and yellow and it has done so! I enjoy the fragrance and it works well.

    Brassiness Removed

    I was given the opportunity to try this product. John Frieda Violet Crush shampoo does what it claims plus it smells great doing it. I have dirty blonde hair with blonde highlights. My water can sometimes make my highlights look brassy so I was very excited to try this product. I noticed a difference after using it twice. I enjoyed it didn't tangled my hair like some other shampoos for blondes.

    Hello highlights

    I have my natural undyed blonde hair and this shampoo really made my natural highlights pop. It has a nice light scent and is a vibrant purple color that really balances out those brassy tones.

    Buh bye brassy tones!

    I am going to start this off by simply saying – I love this product. I was immediately drawn to the colourful packaging, it definitely catches the eye. The product smells amazing – not a harsh or overwhelming scent. I especially love that this product contained no ammonia or peroxide so I didn’t have to worry about it drying out my already damaged hair. I left the shampoo in my hair for approximately 5 minutes each time after lathering and noticed a change immediately after my first wash. My brassy tones were gone and my hair instantly looked brighter again. I tried the shampoo in both the shower as well as when taking a bath and had no issues with staining my white tub during either method of washing. I am fully satisfied with this product and will definitely purchase it in the future once my current bottle is gone.

    Great for brassy blondes

    I received this product for free to test and review and I was pleasantly surprised. It smelt fresh, had a great lather and really did help to eliminate golden tones from my blonde hair. Its a great price point and I will continue to use it in the future.
