Rita Hazan Ultimate True Color Shine Gloss - Boost Hair Color with Healthy Shine - Shine Gloss for Gray Hair - Deep Conditioning Glazy Hair Gloss Treatment - 3.4 oz. Hair Gloss

It seems, in some of the reviews, that users misunderstand what this product does and doesn’t do. It isn’t going to bring drastically brassy hair back to a cool tone and it isn’t going to be a substitute for a good conditioner. But, if used properly, it will help you keep that post-color sleekness and add longevity to your color!For background, I have gray hair that is lowlighted and highlighted to a sandy blonde. I use a very good shampoo and conditioner (Pureology Hydrate) and wash my hair 3-4 times per week; we have neither hard nor soft water where I live. Before using this product, my hair would maintain the lowlights for about three weeks by which time everything was starting to look a little worn out and sometimes a bit brassy. Most purple shampoos and conditioners seem to dry out my hair and tend to strip the lowlights. Now that I am using this Breaking Brass formula – from the first post-coloring shampoo onward – my color stays truer and my hair is healthier.This is what I do: wash hair, squeeze it as dry as possible then use a dry washcloth to pat hair and pick up more excess water, shake Breaking Brass (this gives you a finer foam), pump 9 times into one hand (# of pumps depends on how much hair you have), split between two hands and apply to crown area then down to ends. IF YOU NEED MORE TONING FOR BRASS, add a pea sized amount of Kenra Brightening Treatment Intense Violet Masque (also sold on Amazon). I twist up my shoulder-length hair and hold it with a claw clip. Now spend some time letting it do its magic – personally, I shave my legs. After 4-5 minutes, remove the claw clip and rinse your hair. Condition with your normal conditioner (again, I use Pureology Hydrate). I clip my hair back up while the conditioner is working and finish my shower. Rinse the conditioner out and style as normal.It’s really made such a difference in my hair – I have it on Subscribe and Save!
