Paul Mitchell Platinum Blonde Shampoo brightens blonde, silver, and gray hair by neutralizing brassiness. It keeps hair soft and hydrated, though it's a bit pricey. I love changing shampoo's. It's giving me a good texture to my hair!
I loved the lather and of course the amazing scent!
Hair Type Straight Hair
I selected this one because y'all were out of my usual brand, but I think I have switched brands!
My hair fell out from this product
I used this product for the first time today. My hair felt extremely stiff during the washing proscess and i realized alot started falling out while i was shampooing/conditioning. Conditioner was kind of watery. I did not have this issue before this

Can this be used on hair that is a dark brown base color with some blond highlights? Or is there another product meant for brunettes. Both the brown and blond in my hair develop warmth and brassiness due to well water. The water is treated with a softener, but my hair still seems to develop the brassy/reddish tones rather quickly.
