  • Take time to massage the shampoo through your hair so that it's distributed evenly and is able to fully saturate hair for even toning.
  • Rinse thoroughly and style as usual—and rinse the tub to make sure no purple remains!

Notes

You can use this DIY purple shampoo every month as needed between appointments at the salon for root touch-ups. For extra conditioning after shampooing, follow up with your favorite hair mask to make your freshly toned locks extra silky and sleek.
