I know that there are lots of purple toner/ silver brights shampoos out there, and the prices vary so much. Does anybody know what differs in the more expensive ones? Is it just brand or is there more of the 'purple' ingredient?

I've always had great results with Fudge Violet shampoo it is intensely pigmented with a deep purple almost syrupy shampoo. Cleans the brassy tones and yellowness out of my hair with ease

So what is in there that isn't in the cheaper ones? I guess I just want to know is it worth spending out on the more pricey options or will a non-brand shampoo have the same results?

The fudge one is the best. Ive always bought that one for my Blondie daughter but at a pinch, the supermarket Nordic one is a good alternative.

I swear by the Fudge one. My hairdresser friend put me onto it. It has much more of the toning ingredients than other shampoos have, so you can use it less often. It's reasonably priced too for a big bottle.

So for example I use a Silver Brights toning shampoo every time I wash, then every few weeks I use the Nordic Blonde Toner... so why does the toner take more brassiness then the shampoo? Is it literally more 'pigmented' or is it because you leave it longer?

Yes, definitely more pigmented! My girl left her fudge in way longer than required and her hair went purple. .she loved it!

Another note. Hehe.. My daughter used her fudge about once a week and left in it a bit longer but Nordic was every couple of days as a normal rinse through

Yea the Nordic says to leave 1-5 mins but I leave it for about 15 mins, but it works better than my regular purple shampoo.

Oh yeah totally ignore the instructions lol I have Lush Daddy-O at the moment and once a week I use it as a mask essentially, leaving it on for 15 minutes and then when I rinse out it really makes a difference, leaving my blonde hair lightened and brighter.  I get asked if I have bleached it again even though I haven't.  Not sure what the ingredients are in purple shampoo that makes the brassiness get lifted I think its all to do with the pigment of the purple colour, I could be wrong.

I agree the Fudge purple shampoo was my favourite when I had platinum blonde hair.  I never really followed the instructions either sometimes  I would leave it longer to get a lovely shade of lilac and other times I would just use it to get the brassiness out.

Blonde ladies are so fortunate, my hair is boring brown lol :)

Amanda I've used purple shampoo (Lush Daddy-O) on my dyed dark brown hair (used it when it was black with pink and purple too) - was nice, made it soft and shiny haha.

Best one I have used is the Fudge one, it is totally worth the money and actually lasts quite a while as you dont use it eveytime you wash your hair. Or Daddy-O from Lush is amaze, not as pigmented so you can use everytime you wash your hair. both smell amaze and do a great job!

Hi Sarnew88 I use System Professional which costs around $32.00 from a salon. I only use it once every 1 - 3 weeks and it lasts nearly a year. I haven't noticed any staining from it and it brightens my hair and removes the yellowing very well. I never use coloured shampoo, in fact rarely use shampoo at all, and that helps stop discolouration.
Imagine a world where people know peace, and do one small thing to create it.
