Brighten up your blonde.
Date August 31, 2023
Purple blush may be currently having a moment, but purple hair products never go out of style for blondes.
To understand the magic of purple haircare for blonde babes, let’s get into a little bit of colour theory. On the colour wheel, you’ll find that yellow and purple are direct opposites — making them complementary colours. So, when a bright, cool-toned shade of blonde hair begins to fade or develops a warmer undertone after a few washes post-dye, purple pigment is needed to counteract those orange and yellow undertones that can make blonde hair look brassy. Essentially, purple hair products operate as toners to neutralize lighter colours like blonde, grey and silver (or even dark hair with blonde highlights!) and restore brightness.
If blondes get to incorporate gorgeous lilac-hued shampoos and deep violet conditioners into their haircare routines then perhaps they really do have more fun. Ahead, you’ll find 10 purple hair products that anyone with blonde hair needs to know and shop.
