FAQs
How can I keep my blonde hair from getting brassy?
To avoid warm, brassy tones taking over your balanced blonde colour, use a purple or blue toning shampoo regularly to neutralize your shade. Our ALCHEMIC Shampoo Silver is designed to protect and brighten cool-toned blonde and platinum colours. To maintain your hair’s cool tone, it’s important to avoid excessive sun exposure, use UV protectants, and get regular salon toning treatments as needed.
If I use a purple shampoo, do I also need to use a purple conditioner?
Not necessarily. Some purple conditioners are simply designed as part of an easy duo to add to your hair care routine, but they may not include the key nutrients your blonde needs to look its best. A truly optimal purple shampoo and conditioner set should be able to tone—without leaving you too ashy or dull—while deeply hydrating the follicles to help repair damage. However, you can instead choose to stick with a purple shampoo that gives the toned results you love and pair it with a hair intense treatment or conditioner.
What products are best for blonde, highlighted hair?
Look for gentle, sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners formulated for blonde or colour-treated hair. Our ALCHEMIC and Heart of Glass product lines are designed to illuminate, protect, and enhance blonde and highlighted hair. It’s also important to use a leave-in conditioner or hair mask weekly to maintain moisture, as well as purple toning products to help extend the life of highlights.
Why does my blonde hair seem so dry?
The process of blonding hair can require an extensive lightening process, involving significant bleaching. To lift out pigment, the cuticle of the hair is forced open—leaving strands more prone to dryness and frizz. To combat dry, brittle, and frizzy hair, you should choose blonde hair products that provide intense hydration and help seal the cuticle. A good purple shampoo is designed to help blonde hair avoid becoming brassy, but a great purple shampoo also focuses on moisturizing and protecting the hair.
Does blonde hair require more maintenance than other hair colours?
Yes, blonde and highlighted hair does require more upkeep compared to other hair colours. The bleaching process leaves hair more porous, making it susceptible to dryness, brassiness, and damage. For a longer-lasting blonde, invest in quality hair care products designed for blonde hair, visit the salon regularly, and avoid overwashing.
