How Does No Orange Shampoo Work?
So, you’re probably thinking how can a blue shampoo possibly get rid of annoying copper and red reflections from the hair? First of all, the No Orange Shampoo contains a blue dye and a small amount of violet pigment. . Secondly, when you take a look at the colour wheel blue falls directly opposite to red and orange, which means that it eradicates any red or orange tones. Therefore lots of hairdressers love to use the shampoo as a pre-toner at the basin.
We recommend using a blue shampoo once a week, and then alternating it with another colour-safe shampoo to keep your hair looking salon fresh. Because, overuse of colour-depositing shampoos can lead to dry, damaged hair. So this is why we recommend using the No Orange Mask after shampooing. The mask is a must-have for maximum toning results and nourishes, hydrates, and disentangles the hair. It seals the cuticle, and as a result leaves the hair soft, silky and shiny.

Can I Use Blue Shampoo and Purple Shampoo Together?
The answer is yes, you can. For example, combining the No Orange and No Yellow Shampoo is great for the lighter blonde babes who want to achieve a clean blonde.
Firstly start by using the No Yellow Shampoo to eradicate any yellow tones in the hair, leave it on for 3 to 10 minutes depending on how yellow your hair is. After that rinse it off and then apply the No Orange Shampoo, again leaving it for 3 to 10 minutes. It will banish any leftover orange tones leaving you with an ashy, cool blonde.
Is Purple Shampoo More Suitable for My Hair?
Blue Shampoo isn’t for everyone, and your hair may be more suited to the No Yellow Shampoo. Purple shampoo is perfect for bleached, blonde, streaked and grey hair as the violet pigments in the shampoo help to wipe out any yellow tones in your hair leaving you with cool, bright, even locks. Overall, the No Yellow Shampoo works best for blondes who are a level 9 or higher, although it does tone the highlighted areas on levels, that are 8.5.
