yup snow day







ha.

anyways ive spent the past couple of days working on perfecting my highlights
which i AM happy with ,its just their not the light ash color i want just yet

if you have recently highlighted or bleached hair
to counter act brassy yellow and orange tones
im sure you've read about having to use a purple/blue color toner to counteract the orange brassy colors

One product thats been very recomended its

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31eZyfSY%2BKL._SL500_AA280_.jpg

& it reads

Shimmer Lights Conditioning Shampoo for gray, white, highlighted and light blonde tinted hair is a protein-enriched color enhancing shampoo. Shimmer Lights Shampoo:

  • Brightens white and gray hair.
  • Shampoos away yellow.
  • Refreshes faded highlighted hair.
  • Tones down brassiness.
  • Shimmer Lights Shampoo maintains and refreshes cool, ash-toned haircolor.



But sadly i have not been able to even find this freaking product!
its found in Sally Beauty Supplie stores


So i said,eff that.
while browsing the hair product area something did catch my eye



Pantene Pro-V Silver Expressions Daily Color Enhancing Shampoo


yes it is for silver , white and graying hair
which i have none of
but what it claims to do is what i look for

for one it is a very deep purple color (check!)

it is used to reduce brassy and yellow tones from hair(check!)

and since it is NON-COLOR DEPOSITING

no it wont turn ur hair purple, or for a matter of fact, gray white or any

so it fits in perfectly for what i wanted!
and compared to the 25$ shimer lights
its only 5 buckss!

its amazing it makes my highlights lighter and more of an ash toned
and im not the only one who seems to agree with this

so yeah if you have brassy or even orange toned hair and dont want to put your hair through even more bleach,id very much recommend this.
