Christophe Robin: Understanding Purple Shampoo
Share
If you’re blonde, it’s likely you will have experienced brassiness at one point or another, perhaps reaching for a purple shampoo in between salon appointments.
Caused by an abundance of warm pigments remaining in the hair structure post bleaching1, brassiness can be neutralised by violet tones, with purple sitting opposite yellow on the colour wheel.
The Christophe Robin Baby Blonde ritual is formulated to care for natural, colour-treated, bleached, or highlighted blonde hair, containing a unique blend of iridescent pigments and Florentina Iris to carefully neutralise yellow, brassy tones and brighten, for a radiant, healthy-looking blonde.
“I already loved the mask, but the range is just as incredible. For a pigmented shampoo, it doesn’t dry out the hair at all. The texture is amazing, it lathers well, and I really like the smell
and the colour. As for the conditioner, I love using it on fine hair or for a quick application. It gives incredible shine and neutralises yellow tones significantly, even after a few minutes”
– Julien Le Rumeur, Christophe Robin Pro Ambassador
