I've tried 'em all. Every purple-colored shampoo out there, and this is by far, the best. My highlights get brassy the minute my toner starts to wear off. Shimmer lights has the strongest purple...

I love this product. I bleached my hair blonde about a week ago, and didn't leave it in long enough. This resulted in blonde hair with a yellow-ish tinge- it just looked awful. I decided to try...

This shampoo (and conditioner) was great for removing the brassiness from highlights when I had them. They've since grown out but I still recommend this to friends who need it. It also makes gray...

Works great - Smells awful! I'm looking for an alternative that's just as cheap, works as great, but smells better.

First off, this is more of a treatment than a shampoo. To treat brassiness, I would cleanse hair with your favorite shampoo, then use Shimmer Lights as directed. Because it can be drying, follow...

This dried out my hair horribly after only using a small amount for just a couple of minutes. Hideous. I returned it.
