Most Helpful Positive Review PEOPLE....READ the bottle!! The number of people who don't read kills me!!
This is a TONING & COLOR DEPOSITING shampoo/conditioner. Says it RIGHT ON THE BOTTLES !! If you're blonde and don't want a toning shampoo, DO NOT use this! Pretty simple.
That said....I am brunette with cool ash blonde highlights using Redken Shades EQ 9V/T. My highlights have a purple tint. This keeps my color the gorgeous smoky cool blonde that's my formula. This replaced Blonde Idol toning conditioner & works better & isn't anywhere near as expensive.
Keeps hair soft & manageable. Leave it in to long & your hair will stain purple. It washes out, but if you don't want purple hair then pay attention to what you're doing.
Works on natural blondes, but again, it deposits color so beware.
Most Helpful Critical Review Smelt amazing, unfortunately color results were a flop **I used this in conjunction with the shampoo so some of my review is going to read the same**
I haven't used any purple hair care products on my blonde hair since I was a platinum blonde (I since have transitioned to a more natural bright blonde) so was excited to give this a try.
Just like the shampoo it smelt WONDERFUL. It recommended to use gloves but I had already applied the shampoo without and had no problems and this was the same, no stains on my hands.
It recommends you leave it on for 3-5 minutes. I always do the minimum time with conditioners as I find despite having color treated hair, my hair is thin so so come conditioners can be too heavy.
After I rinsed it off my hair felt heavier and coated. Not in an unpleasant way, just like it had strengthened my hair more. I rinsed for a while just to make sure I had gotten all of the product out. If you have fine hair only use a very small amount and leave it on for the minimum time or this will weigh your hair down.
Unfortunately as I started drying my hair I noticed it looked dull/grey and lacked it's usual shine. I dried it off and tried looking in different lights but alas, the color looked sad. Thankfully this wasn't permanent and with a few washes with my regular shampoo I was able to get my hair almost back to normal.
I think if you are a platinum icy blonde this would work great, or if you are not a regular visitor to the salon. I color (highlight and tone) my hair at the salon every 6-7 weeks and went very recently. Perhaps due to my hair being colored recently the product over toned my hair, or perhaps purple haircare just doesn't agree with my tone of blonde.
As the results aren't permanent I am going to give it another go just before my next salon visit and to see how it turns out. Overall if you know purple products work for you then check it out.

This product does a great job preventing too much brassiness. I will continue to use the shampoo and conditioner.
Absolutely love this shampoo and conditioner 5
Sam from Pa
I've tried my fair share of purple shampoos and this is by far my favorite. I used to use the joico one and it worked well but was very drying. This one is good by any shampoo standard not just purple. I've never repurchased this many times. I even got the jumbo bottle with the sale going on now l.

I use this product one to two times per week for my gray hair. Takes out the yellow and brassiness. Leaves hair a pretty gray color.

Kim from Independence KY
I wouldn't buy this again. Dried my hair I couldn't even brush my it was so knotty. Had to re-wash my hair
If you have blonde or highlights, this is a must. 5
Gia from Howell, NJ
Love it !! My highlights are brassy free . Makes my highlights look great.
Not sure I have noticed any difference, would not repurchase 2
Erica from New Jersey
I purchased this product by recommendation of my hair stylist after having my hair highlighted. I have find/medium long curly hair. I was told to begin using this about 3-4 weeks after having hair highlighted, which I did. I do not notice any brassiness removed after using this product, I use it about once a week (I wash my hair once every 4-5 days). I use a sulfate-free shampoo first. I leave it on for the recommended amount of time. For the price of this product, I wish it worked better. I cannot say that I would purchase this again. After using it, my hair just feels dry, like I didn't use any conditioner at all. Being that I have curly, color-treated hair, I need something that truly moisturizes and hydrates my hair, and this isn't it.
Nice product! 5
julkat from East Bay
I love the way the shampoo and conditioner in this line works. The shampoo lathers so well and the conditioner has a nice clean scent that's not too fragrant.
Hyped Up but better than most 4

Amazing!! 5
KK from VA
My blonde highlights started fading about a month after getting them so I decided to try this conditioner. I had another brand of purple conditioner and it had the consistency of shampoo. It just didn't condition my hair the way I need. But this purple conditioner!!! First the smell is absolutely wonderful! After 1 wash I saw a difference! It's been about 2 weeks now and everyone is complementing me about how wonderful my hair looks! I will be buying this product again but next time the big bottle!!
Serves it's purpose 5
Eva from San Diego
Works great in conjunction with the shampoo in the same line. Makes my hair look and feel healthy. Highly recommended.
MY DAMAGED HAIR IS SO SOFT! 5
PsychoKitty from New York
I reviewed the shampoo but forgot to mention that you really can't use one of these without the other. I consider my hair super healthy - I've even had hairdressers refuse service because they don't want to damage my healthy hair (topic for another day) - so when I got it bleached, I was actually surprised that my hair was so incredibly dead and frail. I also got really nervous that my platinum look wouldn't hold as I could already see some brass pigment settling within 3 days. THIS CONDITIONER HAS BEEN A LIFESAVER. After the shampoo treatment, my hair still felt dry under the running water, but after the conditioner - BAM! Silky, smooth hair. It does take a healthy balance of washing, conditioning, or letting your hair rest a couple of days to get some of your natural oils back. I'm on week 3 of my new hair and product use and I've noticed considerable change in my hair's appearance. It has its glow back and less dull look. The lighter purple does a good job of not undoing your shampoo treatment. I highly recommend this product when used with the shampoo. And use gloves!!
Doesn't do anything 1
SouthernNYer from Charlotte, NC
I'm glad I bought the smaller size because after several uses, the shampoo and conditioner haven't made any difference to my hair color...and I followed the directions to a T. My mom even said she thought my hair looked darker, the opposite of what I expected. I won't be purchasing again.
Love this! 5
Katlyn from St. Louis
I have brown hair and recently got some additional baby lights along with my blonde balayage. I was told to use purple shampoo/conditioner. I use Redken for both and I LOVE it! This conditioner left my hair feeling like I just left the salon—so smooth and smelled SO good! I have noticed a brighter result and even my friends commented on it! LOVE!

Does nothing. 1
BVS from Virginia
This does nothing for my hair. The shampoo dried out my hair so bad and the conditioner does nothing to combat that. Doesn't even feel softer after rinsing it out in the shower. It does have a violet color but smells as bad as the shampoo.
My go to shampoo 5

Keeps my highlights blonde and my hair is soft and manageable!
