Product Information

Full details

The John Frieda Violet Crush Purple Shampoo is designed for adult users with blonde or bleached hair seeking to neutralize unwanted yellow tones and achieve a cooler, brighter blonde. Its key benefit is gradually reducing brassiness while hydrating and strengthening the hair. A potential caveat is that results can vary based on hair porosity and underlying pigment, and it's recommended to use it as part of a total routine for optimal results.

FAQs

How often can I use John Frieda Violet Crush Purple Shampoo?

This shampoo is formulated for daily use. However, the frequency may depend on your hair's porosity and how quickly it picks up tone. Monitor your hair; if you start to see a violet hue or experience dryness, reduce usage to a few times a week.

Will this shampoo make my blonde hair purple?

The Crushed Violet Pigments are designed to neutralize yellow tones. While it's possible to achieve a violet hue if left on for an extended period on very porous or light blonde hair, proper usage as directed (1-5 minutes) should result in a cooler, brighter blonde.

Is this shampoo suitable for all shades of blonde?

It is most effective for blonde, bleached, or highlighted hair that has developed yellow or brassy tones. Results may vary on very light or platinum blondes compared to darker blondes.

Can I use this on natural brown hair?

This shampoo is not designed for natural brown hair. It works by counteracting yellow tones that appear in blonde or lightened hair. Using it on brown hair is unlikely to have a significant toning effect.

What does 'neutralise yellow tones' mean?

It means the purple pigments in the shampoo counteract and cancel out unwanted yellow hues that can develop in blonde hair due to factors like sun exposure, heat styling, or washing with hard water, resulting in a cooler, more neutral blonde shade.

Does this shampoo contain sulfates?

The product information does not explicitly state the absence of sulfates, but it is described as a 'gentle, non-stripping formula'. For precise ingredient information, consult the product packaging.

How does Pro-Vitamin B5 benefit my hair?

Pro-Vitamin B5 (Panthenol) is known for its moisturizing and strengthening properties. It helps to improve hair's elasticity, retain moisture, and add shine, contributing to overall hair health alongside the toning action.

Troubleshooting

Shampoo not producing enough lather

Ensure hair is thoroughly wet before applying the shampoo. Use a slightly larger amount if needed, especially on longer or thicker hair.

Hair feels dry after use

Reduce the frequency of use and ensure you are following with a hydrating conditioner. Consider using the product only 2-3 times a week if daily use leads to dryness.

Yellow tones are not reducing

Ensure you are leaving the shampoo on for the recommended time (1-5 minutes). For very stubborn brassiness, consider increasing the leave-on time slightly or using the product more frequently, always monitoring hair's response.

Purple staining on hands or shower surfaces

Rinse hands immediately after application. Wear gloves if you have sensitive skin or are concerned about staining. Clean up any spills on shower surfaces promptly with a suitable cleaner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This purple shampoo is specifically formulated for blonde, lightened, or highlighted hair. It is not intended for use on dark natural hair colors as it may not be effective or could cause unwanted staining.

Usage:

  1. Wet hair thoroughly.
  2. Lather a small amount of shampoo into your hands.
  3. Apply to hair, focusing on areas with yellow tones.
  4. Leave on for 1-3 minutes for gentle toning, or up to 5 minutes for more intense results.
  5. Rinse thoroughly.
  6. Follow with a conditioner, preferably the John Frieda Violet Crush Strengthening Conditioner or a hydrating conditioner.

Care:

Store the shampoo in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is securely closed after each use to prevent drying out. Clean up any spills immediately as the purple pigment can stain surfaces.

Routine Integration:

For optimal results and to maximize toning benefits, use the shampoo as part of the complete John Frieda Violet Crush routine, which may include a corresponding mask or conditioner.
