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.

    THE BEST

    Hands down the BEST purple shampoo I have ever tried. In the summer my hair turns pretty yellow and brassy, but if I use this is goes right back to the ashy colour I love. I've tried a bunch of purple shampoos but this one is my all-time favourite for brassy orange tones. If it's really bad I will apply on dry hair for about 10 minutes before rinsing out in the shower and it works almost as well as a toner at the salon!

    Its a miracle!

    This product is a miracle! A friend of mine recommended this to me and i told my hairdresser about it and she confirmed that its a good product. Although its a bit pricy it took all the brassiness away from my hair and works just like a toner!

    great purple shampoo

    I decided to bleach my hair during this pandemic and all turned out good except for the usual brassiness. I tried the regular john frieda blond shampoo but it wasn't cutting it so I bought the intense blonde one to try and it did wonders. I have used over half the bottle now using every other day and I have zero brassiness left. It worked even on the first use.

    No more yellow!

    In the past I’ve bought purple shampoo from the salon. I saw this on Amazon one day and decided to try it it. I feel it works just as well as the much more expensive salon varieties. My hair was soft and clean. The smell is really pretty too.

    Brassy tones are gone

    I have been using John Frieda Violet Crush Purple Shampoo for a number of months now and it is one of the most cost effective purple shampoos I have found and more importantly it works on my fine hair. I have a problem with shampoos weighing my hair down because it is so fine but John Frieda Violet Crush Purple Shampoo takes all the brassy tones out of my blonde/grey hair without leaving it dry like other purple shampoos I have tried. I highly recommend John Frieda Violet Crush Purple Shampoo and it won’t break the bank when you purchase it.

    Brass be gone!

    Love this shampoo.
    A great quick fix to get my treated blonde hair looking amazing.
    Gentle enough to use every time you shampoo to really brighten your blonde.
    Would even recommend on highlighted brown hair to make your highlights really pop.

    Maintains blonde hair with no brass

    This is my go to for purple hair care products. It’s always found on sale and gradually maintains the toner of hair - keeps my hair a nice bright blonde and even cools down the orange tones in my brown natural hair... love it!

    Didn't see much of a change

    I really loved the way this shampoo made my hair feel. It smoothed everything out and really cleaned my hair but I didn't see much of a difference when it came to remove any brassiness.

    Removes brass from my blonde highlights

    I found this shampoo overall effective in removing my yellow/orange tones from my blonde highlights. Most other violet shampoos are pretty drying to my curly hair, but this one didn't leave my hair stripped. The only downside is this product is not sulphates-free. Scent was pleasant. Would repurchase.
