PROVOKE Cool It Blue Toning Sulphate-Free Shampoo and Conditioner Duo Pack 200 ml, No Red and Orange Brassy Tones for Brunettes, Warm Blondes, Highlighted and Balayage Hair

Product Information

Our Touch of Silver Brightening Shampoo should be applied to wet hair and massaged in before leaving on for five minutes. Brunettes should use our brightening shampoo specifically on the lightened sections of hair. For many, this will mean applying silver shampoo directly to the lower lengths of hair, targeting the brassy sections. In fact, it can improve the overall quality of your hair by filling gaps that come with prolonged hair damage. As keratin is a protective protein it can help to strengthen your hair and make it look shinier and healthier. Keratin forms a protective barrier around your hair, restoring the cuticle and helping it to retain moisture – reducing dry damage and boosting shine.

While there are many standout blue 'poos on the market, Matrix Brass Off shines above the rest. Formulated specifically for lightened brunette hair, this sulfate-free hair wash deposits blue-violet pigments to minimize brassiness. In other words, it creates a stunning cool-toned finish that brings out the intended effect of your color-treated hair. The vanilla-rose scent doesn't hurt either. Theresa Holland has been contributing to Byrdie since 2020, covering wellness, makeup, skincare, and haircare. For this story, she interviewed two stylists for product recommendations and insight into the science of color-depositing hair washes. Having tried a handful of blue/purple shampoos in the past, she's particularly fond of Fanola and Kevin Murphy. You can read more stories by Theresa on MyDomaine and The Spruce. Keratin is found naturally in your body. However, it can be easily destroyed by heat, chemicals, and pollution. Lots of people choose to replenish this with keratin-based hair products and treatments to make sure the health and appearance of their hair is the best it can be. This is super important in summer months where UV protection is a must to protect your hair from sun exposure, or if you frequently use heat styling tools. Keratin will help keep your healthy shine and you’ll see fewer split ends forming, so you can say goodbye to frizz! First application I found it very drying, as I was applying the shampoo it felt like it was stripping it, my hair felt extremely dry but I think this is becausing it was doing its job and let’s face it it was getting through months of hair colour!Keratin is a fibrous protein which makes up the main structure of your hair, skin and nails. It accounts for 65% – 95% of your hair, protecting the cuticle and interior structure of the strand’s cortex and repairing any damage that occurs. My hair has been bleached and dyed in the past so it was getting lighter at the ends so was showing a variety of different colours in my hair (not a good look)

For added shine, heat protection, and deeper nourishment, use our Touch Of Silver Leave-in Conditioner before drying. Simply spray onto wet or towel dried hair. The pro-vitamin B5 formula will help to make your hair smoother and more manageable after just one wash. Overall, our favorite blue shampoo is Matrix Total Results Brass Off Color Depositing Blue Shampoo. We love that it's formulated specifically for lightened brunette hair and that the sulfate-free blend uses blue-violet pigments to provide a brilliant cool-toned finish with no brassiness in sight. Having said that, Not Your Mother's Triple Threat Brunette Blue Treatment Shampoo is an excellent choice for those on a budget but still want to tweak the orange out of their warm brown highlights. I noticed a difference in the colour after about the third wash, the light hair had begun to darken and blend in with the rest of my hair. It’s vegan friendly which is great and silicone free. It says that it has a ‘sulfate free system’ but I am interested to know if that means that the product itself is sulfate free. The word ‘system’ to me implies that it may not be so they need to word it differently? I’m unsure what this means. Made specifically for lightened brunette hair, this sulfate-free shampoo deposits blue-violet pigments to reduce brassiness and counteract unwanted warm tones.
