Most people use a purple shampoo too often and then wonder why their blonde has gone dull and slightly lilac at the ends. Once a week is usually enough. This one from Crazy Color is pigmented enough that you do not need to lean on it.

Violet sits opposite yellow on the colour wheel, so the pigment cancels the warmth that creeps into bleached, highlighted and grey hair between appointments. The base cleanses gently and conditions as it goes, so the toning does not come at the cost of dryness. Icy platinum, ash blonde and natural silver all hold their clarity longer with it in rotation. 250 ml, and a bottle lasts because you are reaching for it weekly rather than daily. Porous ends take pigment faster than mid-lengths, so if your ends are bleached out, keep the timing short and check in the mirror rather than trusting the clock.

There is also a difference between toning and depositing that catches people out. This is a toner, so it corrects the tone of hair that is already light. On darker blonde it will do very little, and on hair that has never been lightened it will do nothing at all beyond washing it. Save it for the shades it was built for.

Application tips

Little and often beats a long soak. Two minutes on wet hair, every second or third wash, keeps blonde cool without the grey cast that comes from overdoing it.

If your hair is very porous, dilute it in the palm with a little water first and watch the ends, which grab pigment fastest. Rinse thoroughly, then follow with a conditioner, and wear gloves if you would rather not stain your fingers.

Results

Yellow drops out and the blonde reads cleaner, closer to the tone that came out of the salon than the one that has been drifting warm for a fortnight.

Grey and silver hair gains definition, since the yellow that dulls white strands is what flattens them. Nothing goes purple if the timing is sensible. Hair keeps its softness rather than going squeaky, which is the usual complaint about toning shampoos.

Composition
