Let me just start by saying I dont really use much purple shampoo or toner in upkeeping my balayage (dont tell my stylist ). However, I have tried purple shampoo from time to time, especially during the fall and winter when cooler toned highlights really pop! Ive never really liked the process of using it. Messes everywhere, not great results, and just generally not worth the effort... however, I genuinely loved Shimmer Lights. While I have slightly lower opinions of the shampoo, I have no real complaints about this leave in product! Its not as strong of a purple as the shampoo and doesnt stain your hands! Its pretty mess free and just enough purple to give your hair a little tone! The only complaint I have is that its a little sticky, but you can just wash off the extra on your hands after application. Once its dry, you dont even notice the feel of the product on your hair! After just one try of this haircare routine, even my boyfriend could tell that my highlights had started to take on a cooler tone. Even wet, my highlights had started to pop! Id say this line works best for anyone who is looking for a more gray or ash blonde look. It probably looks even better on anyone whose hair is fully blonde (mine is a mix of blonde balayage and natural dark brown) since there were patches where it didnt necessarily know how to blend with my brown hair. Overall, a great product though! Would definitely use again to make the salon cool tones last longer through the cold weather!
I tried this product several times to reduce the brassy tone in my natural blonde hair. It's very reasonably priced and *is* helpful as a styling treatment; It made my hair feel soft, sleek and didn't weigh my fine, straight hair down. With that being said however, I saw absolutely no difference in toning down the brassy color of my hair, even after several uses. The smell is nice but be warned: it is STRONG—if you don't like heavily scented products, I don't recommend you purchase this item. I gave it 3 stars because of the way it made my hair feel and the low cost of the product, but cannot give it any praise for what it's supposed to do for blonde hair. I'll use it as a backup if I'm running low on my other products that are well formulated to help blonde hair, but it is not a product I would repurchase.

I grew up on Clairol Hair products. My father worked for Clairol. Do I have a bias here Clairol Professional iThrive Split End Repair

Sooo amazing and stays on all day! I love this product and goes on smooth under eyes and helps reduce blemish appearance and I think the only con is price but pro is the smoothness!

I apply it to your damp hair and before styling to help condition, enhance color. Purchased the Clairol Shimmer Lights Leave-In Styling Treatment which is a color enhancing treatment that conditions hair for smooth touchable styles. i am happy with it

This is one of the few products that I can use in my hair and a day later it is not oily to where I have to wash it again. The smell to me is AMAZING. I do continue to purchase this over and over and have recommended it to friends on more than one occasion.

As far as toning is concerned, absolutely no effect on the tone of my mostly platinum hair. Otherwise as a leave in product it weighed my hair down so much I only used it once. Not recommended, especially for those with fine hair

This is one of those brands that is a hit or miss completely. This product is really good because it really makes your hair smooth and I like the fact that it's a leave in treatment so I don't have to worry about taking it out.

It's really great to use for styling your hair. It helps to bring out the volume and shine. Also, since it's leave-in, it conditions as it's styling.

This product while it does enhance your blonde and takes the orange and brassiness away makes the hair a bit dry

I liked this product. A little goes a long way even for long hair. It smells really good and the smell lasts in your hair. I don't think it really mattered what my hair color was. I didn't notice much of a change in my blondness.

Again, this whole product line is a disaster. If you care about the quality and integrity of your hair, stay far away from this nonsense. It is not worth the "affordable" price if it damages and dries out your hair.

Lightens hair, smells great and makes hair so smooth! The best leave-in for blondes who want the ashy look at an affordable price. Bottle lasts forever!

I put this in my hair after a shower and I woke up and it was still crusty!

I wasted my money on this. The brand sucks and it smells horrible. I have cool toned highlights and it did nothing to them as far as brightening them. Affordable but you get what you pay for. The smell is chemical.

Works great. Nice packaging. Smell is nice. Helps to keep the brassy color from my blonde. Was a little thicker than I usually like. I felt like I used more than typical to get enough for my length hair.

Easy to use and not too heavy to weigh down hair

This leave in was ok for my hair but kind of left a residue. I've used better and more effective for my curls.
cherolel from undisclosed
I love keeping my hair icy and this definitely does that. This product is also affordable. My only complaint is that it's super drying.
laurav69 from undisclosed
Not a bad product and the price point is pretty good. The results, when combined with the conditioner, are better. This did make my hair shinier in a very subtle way and gave it a bit more of a conditioned look.
maemae423 from undisclosed
Great product. It made my hair so clean and refreshed. It helped bring out the shine and made my hair super soft and smelled great.

When I was bleaching my hair, this was one of the best products to use. The formula was great and the results were as well. Its affordable and great packaging.
jennylour from undisclosed
This is a great conditioner to smooth out the hair and also great "spot" treatment after a shower and when you find areas of strands that's are a bit brassier than the other strands but doesn't leave a stickiness to the hair. The scent is strong though. I wish it wasn't. I'm sensitives to scent but I like the pros more than this con and so I continue to use it.
