Matrix Brass Off Blue Toning Shampoo for Lightened Brunettes & Dark Blondes, Color-Depositing, Neutralizes Brassy Orange

This professional-strength toning shampoo gently cleanses while depositing blue-violet pigments to counter warm, brassy hues often seen after lightening or highlighting. Formulated to work on both color-treated and natural hair, it refreshes cool tones without stripping color and includes conditioning agents to help maintain softness and manageability.

How quickly will I see results on brassy or orange tones?

Most users notice visible neutralization after a single application, especially on lightened brunettes and dark blondes with orange cast. Results depend on hair porosity and how long the shampoo stays on the hair.

• One wash can visibly reduce brassy warmth.
• Leave on 2–3 minutes for stronger toning when needed.
• Use every other wash to maintain cool tones without over-depositing pigment.

Will this shampoo strip my color or dry out my hair?

Matrix Brass Off is designed to cleanse without aggressively stripping salon color; it includes conditioning ingredients to protect and soften hair as it tones. For best results, pair with the Brass Off conditioner or mask to restore hydration after toning.

• Contains conditioning agents like amodimethicone and polyquaterniums to smooth the hair cuticle.
• Gentle cleansing base that removes buildup while depositing pigment.
• Follow with conditioner or treatment for added moisture and color protection.

How should I use this shampoo for safe, predictable results?

Apply to wet hair, lather, and rinse; for enhanced toning, leave the product on for 2–3 minutes before rinsing. Wear gloves to avoid staining hands and alternate use with your regular shampoo to prevent over-depositing pigment.

• Apply to wet hair, work into a lather, then rinse thoroughly.
• For stronger neutralization, leave on 2–3 minutes before rinsing.
