Best 'purple' shampoo and conditioner

Where_You_Working · 11 October 2012 at 10:11PM

Are there any hair experts out there who can recommended a good value 'purple' shampoo and conditioner, recently had highlights and hairdresser recommended not using cheaper brands as 'they will strip my hair of colour'. Always been a 'whatever on offer' haircare person but did fork out for their stuff at 10 times price I would normally pay! Running out now, do I splurge out again or are the cheaper brands fine?

I would not recommend a cheaper brand. I've had blonde hair for years and the only product I know that really does keep it looking good is the purple John Freida. It is dear, about £4.50 a bottle or £5.50 but 3 for 2 at Boots frequently.

This, it's really good at toning down any brassiness too.

Thanks both, both are a lot cheaper than one at hairdressers, will give them a try!

I love Tresemme, the colour protect one. Used it when I had blonde hair, brown hair, red hair and I use it now when I have dark berry coloured hair

It is usually on offer somewhere, asda had it last week for £2 for the large 1 litre bottle.

I use Loreal Professional Silver Shampoo. It is expensive from the hairdressers but I get a huge 1500ml size bottle from ebay which costs £14 delivered. It lasts me the best part of a year and definately makes the colour last longer :0)
