Fanola Purple Shampoo

Anyone used it?

I'm really really sick of the sun-lightened hard water brassiness color of my hair, and the Fanola stuff has like 10,000 rave reviews on Amazon. Unfortunately they wont ship to my PO Box. :\

I got a generic 'blonde maintaining purple shampoo' from Sally's last time I was in the big city and it doesn't seem to do diddly squat as far as toning, which I wasn't too surprised about... Trying to decide if it's worth the trouble of finding a friend who gets mail delivery whose address I can use or something.

I've used it and I'm not the biggest fan. It IS very pigmented and does work for toning brassiness, but it always made my hair lose its brightness and look really "dusty" and murky somehow.

I have It, a travel size because i use It very seldomly. The smell Is loooovely but i must be allergic to something in it because if I get It too close to my scalp i get weird pimples.

Hmm, my hair is pretty dark, I wonder if this effect would be as noticeable as on blonde hair...

Funny how different tastes can be. In my opinion, the smell is repulsive.

I think you might be better off than I was.

Oh, smell is super subjective, I agree!
I don't know how to describe it, it's not soapy or fruity like most hair products, it smells quite perfume-y.
