My colorist just suggested that I use a shampoo by Aveda called Blue Malva to counteract brassiness. She says that it is supposed to neutralize brassy tones. Do these shampoos really work?

Yes, they do, but you`ll get the biggest effect if your hair is blond or light brown. The change will be subtle. Another good product to try is Clairol Complements Shampoo, which comes in a variety of shades and is very gentle. Aura also makes an Aveda-like color enhancer if you can`t afford Blue Malva. Good luck!

Lyris, my hair is bleached blonde. Actually I get it foiled. I am a natural level 4 (just plain old brown). I am bleached to a level 9 or 10. Because my hair is much darker naturally, I have problems with a little brassiness. Does it just work on naturally blond hair or will it also work on bleached blond?

Hi Raquel! Yes, the shampoos will work to counteract brassiness on both natural and bleached blond hair. Just remember the change will be subtle, but since you said you`ve only got a little brassiness the shampoo might be just what you need. Hope this helps a bit.

Try Stay Blonde Revitalizing Glosser by Hask. It has done wonders with my wife`s hair. This is put in after you shampoo and left in. It makes hair softer also.
