It makes my highlights look brighter but it is very drying. I need a very deep conditioner after using this.

This shampoo/conditioner has been doing what it says and for that reason I like and would buy it again until I find a better purple shampoo. I bleach my hair to a platinum blonde and always try to...

This product does work, but the really bad thing is you have to leave this in really long for the results to be noticable. Now I'm talking 15-20 minutes. It's also very drying, but what else to...

I have bleach blonde hair (close to platinum blonde) and I use this product to cut out the brassiness in my hair. It's pretty effective on taking out the yellow, but I feel like its really drying....

First of all I use the generic version bought at sallys for about 6 bucks. The salesgirl told me that it works just as well as shimmer lights. IF YOU COLOR YOUR HAIR BLONDE U MUST OWN THIS SHAMPOO!...

I actually have light brown hair and this works well getting rid of gold tones. My hair is long and rather porous so it always grabs dye darker on the ends and as a result, the top of my hair turns...

This is what we use in the salon for bleached or blonde hair. It removes brassy tones and helps to add extra brightness to blonde colors. Would recommend to anyone who has lightend hair!
