'purple shampoo' for blondes!

Touch of Silver - £3.09

this product is specifically aimed at us girls, who have bleached/died their hair a lighter colour, typically blonde. as it says it is a brightening shampoo, therefore it works in conjunction with your daily hair care and works to get rid of any brassiness that your typical shampoo has left on your bleached hair. this neutralises the hair, and therefore leaves it the colour you intended on having it when you first bleached the hair.

i think the brand is very well known when it comes to hair colour aimed at bleached hair, therefore to suggest it is a reliable product would be matter of fact. everyone i know who has bleached their hair, tends to use this brand when it comes to trying to find a 'purple shampoo'. i personally have only used this one, so i cannot compare it to any others. i have had the bottoms of my hair bleached for about two or so years now and i have repeatedly purchased this product, time after time. i think it works brilliantly in getting rid of excess shampoo and any left over product that your normal shampoo has been unable to wash out.

i do tend to find it is a rather weird texture, and is rather runny so you have to be careful when pouring it out of the bottle. once on the hair, i tend to rub it into the bottom where my hair is bleached and then i brush this through leaving it on for a few minutes to get the full effect. i do tend to find my hair does feel a bit blurgh after ive washed it off, rather stiff and not as soft as a normal conditioner, but i guess this is because this product has got ridden of all that 'goodness' that makes your hair feel soft and luxerious and has restored it back to the basic bleach colour.

i wouldnt recommend using this more than twice a week, because your hair just doesnt need it! i think it works great if you use it once, or twice a week to restore the bleach blonde colour. i however, prefer my hair to feel soft so i always condition it tons after ive used this product, which to be honest defeats the object of using it sometimes! i would recommend this to anyone though who has bleached their hair as it does restore the colour and gets rid of any excess product!

lots of love, elle xo
