FAQ

What Does Milkshake Purple Shampoo Do?

Milkshake purple shampoo uses violet pigments to help neutralise unwanted yellow and brassy tones in blonde, grey and lightened hair.

Milkshake Silver Shine Shampoo combines toning pigments with conditioning ingredients such as milk proteins and fruit extracts, helping maintain a cooler-looking tone while supporting softness and shine.

It can be a useful addition to your routine if your blonde, silver or grey hair starts to look warmer or more yellow between salon visits.

Why Choose Milkshake Purple Shampoo?

Not all purple shampoos are formulated the same way. Milkshake Purple Shampoo is designed to combine toning performance with a more conditioning, salon-style cleansing experience.

The formula uses violet pigments, which sit opposite yellow on the colour wheel, to help reduce unwanted warmth in blonde and grey hair. Milk proteins and fruit-derived ingredients are also included in selected formulas to support softness, manageability and shine.

If you prefer a softer toning effect, Milkshake also offers lighter toning options for customers who want more moderate colour correction.

Is Milkshake Purple Shampoo Suitable for Grey Hair?

Yes. Milkshake purple shampoo can be used on grey hair to help reduce yellowing and maintain a cleaner, brighter-looking silver tone.

Because grey and silver hair can gradually pick up warmth from environmental exposure, product build-up and other factors, occasional use of a violet-toning shampoo can help refresh the overall appearance.

Start with a shorter processing time and adjust based on how much toning your hair needs.

How Often Should I Use Milkshake Purple Shampoo?

Many people use purple shampoo around once or twice per week, but the ideal frequency depends on your hair colour, porosity and how quickly brassy tones return.

If your hair is very light, porous or freshly bleached, you may need to use it less frequently to avoid over-toning. If your hair develops warmth quickly, you may prefer to use it a little more often.

Pay attention to how your hair responds and adjust your routine accordingly.

Can Purple Shampoo Replace My Regular Shampoo?

No. Purple shampoo is primarily a toning product, so it is best used alongside your regular shampoo rather than as your only cleanser.

Your normal shampoo can be used for everyday cleansing, while Milkshake purple shampoo can be introduced when your blonde, grey or lightened hair starts to develop unwanted yellow or brassy tones.

This approach gives you more control over the level of toning while still maintaining a balanced cleansing routine.

Can Milkshake Purple Shampoo Be Used on Icy Blonde Hair?

Yes. Purple shampoo is particularly useful for maintaining cool blonde shades because it helps neutralise yellow tones that can make icy blonde hair appear warmer over time.

If you're maintaining a very cool blonde result, you can also explore the Milkshake Icy Blonde range for products specifically designed around cooler blonde tones.

Because very light hair can absorb violet pigment quickly, it is best to monitor the toning effect carefully during use.

What Should I Use with Milkshake Purple Shampoo?

Purple shampoo can be paired with a conditioner or leave-in treatment to help keep blonde, grey or lightened hair feeling soft and manageable.

Bleached and colour-treated hair can sometimes feel drier than untreated hair, so adding moisture back into your routine is important. You can explore Milkshake leave-in conditioners and other complementary Milkshake hair products to build a more complete routine.

Using a moisturising treatment alongside toning products can help maintain both colour and condition.
