Clairol Professional Purple Conditioner for Blonde, Silver & Gray - 8 fl oz, Neutralizes Brass & Restores Shine

Clairol Professional Shimmer Lights Purple Conditioner is a protein-enriched purple conditioner designed to neutralize brass and yellow tones in blonde, silver, gray and highlighted hair while restoring softness and shine.

This conditioner pairs violet pigments with conditioning proteins to refresh faded color, reduce warm undertones, and smooth the hair cuticle. Lightweight but nourishing, it works on both natural and color-treated hair to brighten cool tones without heavy residue. Use it as part of a routine with purple shampoo or as a stand-alone weekly treatment to keep pale shades crisp between salon visits.

How does this conditioner neutralize brass and yellow tones?

The formula deposits violet pigments that counteract unwanted warm hues by balancing the color spectrum on pale hair. Instead of lifting pigment, it tones in place, softening orange and yellow casts while preserving existing color. Results are gradual—consistent use keeps cool shades refreshed.

• Violet colorants target yellow and orange undertones.
• Protein-enriched base helps maintain hair integrity during toning.
• Effects build with repeat use; safe for weekly application.

Can I use it on color-treated or natural blonde, silver, or gray hair?

Yes—this conditioner is formulated for both color-treated and natural pale hair. It safely deposits toner without aggressive bleaching, making it suitable for highlights, all-over bleached hair, and naturally light shades. It can also reduce dullness in gray or white hair without disrupting permanent color.

• Suitable for highlighted, balayage, and full-bleach looks.
• Gentle enough for regular use on natural gray and white hair.
• Maintains salon results between color appointments.

How should I use it for best results?

Apply after shampooing, focusing on mid-lengths and ends where brassiness concentrates. Leave on according to hair porosity—typically 1–5 minutes—then rinse thoroughly. For stubborn warmth, increase frequency to twice weekly until desired tone is achieved, then reduce to maintenance use.

• Use after a purple or regular shampoo; towel-dry hair first.
• Start with 1–2 minutes; extend time for more toning if needed.
• Rinse well to avoid temporary purple tint on very porous hair.

What will this conditioner do for hair texture and shine?

Beyond toning, the conditioner includes proteins and moisturizing agents that smooth the cuticle and reduce frizz. Hair looks shinier and feels softer after regular application, helping highlights appear more defined. It’s designed to leave hair manageable without weighing fine blonde strands down.

• Protein-enriched formula helps strengthen and smooth strands.
• Improves manageability and reduces static and frizz.
• Lightweight conditioning avoids heavy buildup on fine hair.

Who is this for: Clairol Professional Shimmer Lights Purple Conditioner is ideal for anyone with blonde, silver, gray, highlighted, or lightened hair who wants to control brassiness and boost cool tones between salon visits. It’s a good fit for salon professionals maintaining client color and for at-home users seeking an easy toning step that also conditions. If you need intense color correction, consult a stylist first; for routine brightening and softness, this product provides a convenient, gentle option.
