Review (5/5): Good purple DYE DEPOSITING shampoo and conditioner
This shampoo smells like the stuff often used when I’m at the salon- very fresh and clean, with a very mild hint of floral. Be aware this is a purple color depositing shampoo. Meaning, you are literally depositing small amounts of purple dye to your hair when you shampoo and condition. The purple dye color cancels out brassy orange colors that develop on blond and silver hair. You should not use this as a daily/maintenance shampoo. Depending on your hair, this (or any purple shampoo) could dye your hair a cotton candy purple (I had it happen with another brand that my friend had imported from Eastern Europe). With this shampoo, my first wash I did not notice any difference in my hair, but the second wash there was a definite difference. It’s not terribly noticeable in my photo, but there is a slight purple sheen to my silver/greys. My hair felt soft after and was manageable.
Another thing to be aware, this product is made in China. Label says “Made in PRC”, which is short for People’s Republic of China. Current price is $19.95, which is good for a purple shampoo and conditioner that works of this size.
