Description

Blonde hair looking more yellow than golden? Brassiness creeps in gradually, dulling your color and making highlights look tired. John Frieda Violet Crush Purple Shampoo delivers a solution that works in as little as one wash, restoring the cool, bright tones you want.

This purple shampoo uses crushed violet pigments to neutralize unwanted yellow and orange tones for a cooler, brighter blonde in one use. Infused with provitamin B5, this shampoo for blonde hair effectively cleans your hair without stripping it of essential moisture. Whether you have color-treated blonde, natural highlights, or lightened locks, the purple pigments work to brighten and cool your shade while leaving hair feeling fresh and clean. Plus, the cruelty-free formula is peroxide and ammonia-free, and free of parabens and phthalates, so you can feel good about what you're using.

Use this shampoo as part of your regular routine whenever brassiness starts to appear, or incorporate it weekly to maintain your ideal tone. Apply to wet hair, massage through from roots to ends, and let it sit for one to three minutes before rinsing. The longer you leave it, the more toning power you get. It works well alternated with your regular shampoo for balanced maintenance. For optimal results, pair this purple shampoo with John Frieda Violet Crush Conditioner.

    Orangey blonde no more!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this John Frieda duo, smells great, feels great conditions great and takes all the bad colors out of your blonde. I had gotten really brassy and was ready to fry my hair again when this lovely package showed up for me to review from pinchme and John Frieda, No need for another bleach job now, this did the trick in one wash... even better on the second.

    Handles brassiness after coloring hair

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample of John Frieda Violet Crush for Blondes Shampoo & Conditioner from pinchme. I color my blonde hair to cover grays, but hate the red, brassy tones caused by coloring. I have tried many brands of hair colors, and always have the same brassy tones. This purple shampoo and conditioner helps neutralize the unwanted red tones and give me a purer blonde more like my natural color. The shampoo lathers well, the conditioner leaves my hair soft, and the purple doesn’t require scrubbing off my tub. This product is what you need if you want to calm brassy tones in blonde hair.

    Works well!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a free product in exchange for my honest review. This conditioner is very moisturizing and left my hair feeling soft. I let it sit for a good 5 minutes after using the shampoo, as the shampoo did seem to make my ends a little dry but this definitely helped with that. I have a mix of blonde & gray in my hair and it feels like this did a great job at taking the brassiness out and lightening my highlights (when used with the shampoo). I've been using it 2 to 3 times a week and I think that's about all you need. The scent is light but lovely and lingers after you get out the shower, which I love.

    Cooler brighter hair

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a free sample of John Frieda violet crush. I loved how a little dab goes a long way. It tones down brassy blondes. I did feel like my hair was a little drier though but it was just one use, so I will need to try again before determining for sure if it was the product or not.

    Help keep my hair blonde

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I mugged up my hair by going darker and I couldn’t rebleach my hair without damaging it any further, thank god this came in the mail for me. I was able to bring back my natural blonde and even got rid of the orange and brassy red undertones. Definitely recommend it didn’t damage my hair any more

    Great affordable option

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair is dark blond and is bleached light platinum. It tends to turn very yellow quite quickly so i use a number of purple tinted products. This one didn’t have as much pigment as I would like but is a good affordable option and left my hair looking healthy.

    Love this!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a great conditioner! I received the matching shampoo also, and together these make my hair so healthy and shiny. No brassiness, just pretty, dark blonde hair, which I have never colored, and I'm 53. John Frieda knows how to make an amazing hair product, and I'm hooked on this shampoo and conditioner combo!

    Crushed It

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received John Frieda Violet Crush for Blondes Shampoo & Conditioner for free in exchange for my honest opinion. I think most of us blonds have the need one time or the other for a violet duo. This set has held up to the challenge with changes within the week. Not only has it helped tone down my brassy lock it smells great and left my hair more manageable. I will continue to use as needed and I recommend giving the set a try if your in the need.
