Can you also use this shampoo on hair that is mostly gray, to get the yellow out?

I would think so. It takes the brassy look out of blonde. It's not as drying as the regular sheer blonde but make absolutely sure it's the one in the purple bottle that says color corrector. Sometimes the picture is not what you get so check the pic and the information to be positive.

I'm sure you could, but ANY PURPLE SHAMPOO will work for that...it just has to be purple...and the label will usually state that it's good for highlights or grey hair. I just buy one from the drug store and it works great to get the brassyness out of my blond hair. The cheaper purple shampoos were not nearly as drying as this one was.

I believe so - it counteracts yellow, so I would think it would work for that too.

With my 95% white hair, I have found that this shampoo makes my silver strands shine more but otherwise does not change the color of my hair. I hope this helps.

Yes, I have 'old' grey hair. I'm African Amercan w/natural hair. Since using this shampoo, I've noticed my roots in the crown seem to be darker. I had considerable hair loss due to a medical issue (thyroid) and dermatologist instructed me to stop relaxing, coloring and using heat. Hair was breaking/shedding and very brittle prior to using this shampoo. I'm very pleased with the results--hair is much healthier and manageable. It's very concentrated, so a little goes a long way.

The shampoo itself does, but it does not transfer to your hair. Your hair comes out with your gray hair having lovely silver highlights.

My sisters and I all use it for colored hair without any loss in the longevity of our color. I works super for our Moms grey hair as well. It is the only shampoo my 83 year old mother will use.

The shampoo is very gentle and can be used daily. You are aware that it will do nothing to lessen your gray hair, only keep it clean and shiny. In addition, although you did not ask, I think no one needs to shampoo daily - three times a week should be sufficient or you will dry out your hair. My opinion only.

Nexxus simply silver works beautifully on the grey hair and helps to highlight the brownish hair. No need to worry, go for it. What I will recommend is that you do not leave in the shampoo too long. I usually apply and wash out immediately inorder not to have too blue a color. After few applications you will get the xesired effect.

It will make it less yellow. Be careful though, if you leave it on too long, it will make your hair look gray.

No. It has to be almost pale blonde or it won't do anything. Same for purple shampoos. If you want your hair gray/white you're gonna have to bleach it to pale blonde.

This shampoo does not bleach your hair and it does not wash the color out. I use it daily to keep the blond highlights from fading or turning yellow/gold. I like the shampoo, but the conditioner that goes with, although purple too, doesn't seem to be enough conditioning for my hair.

It depends how blond you are to begin with. Usually it does not change your color dramatically, but it does take away all the yellowish tones and brasiness. This shampoo gives kind of a colder platinum shade to blondes.

I'm sorry, I don't know. My hair is naturally gray and brown, It is a lovey shampoo and conditioner that enhances my gray

Yes, this shampoo definitely helped my hair remain grey and really improved the yellowish tinge that had slowly built up over time. I use it twice a week.

As much as I liked how the product made my hair look and feel, it did not take out are reduce the yellow in my gray/white hair. I prefer to use Shimmer Lights by Clairoil.

Fine. I have dirty blond hair, doesn't dull the color, really rich shampoo. Wife has bleached blond and gray is growing out, she uses it and keeps her blond from yellowing. Good shampoo

Yes it is more about getting rid of unwanted yellow tones. You can use a toner at anytime in the life of your hair color. If this doesn't help you try some purple shampoo.

I would think it could work the same way, however I have had times where my hair was platinum and I had yellow streaks from the minerals in the water, hair products etc and I found that tea tree shampoo is excellent for taking those out and leaving your hair the natural color so if this product doesn't work for you, I would try that.
