Purple Shampoo?!

   SO here's the deal: I've got naturally pretty dark hair that I tend to dye a darker blonde colour. Apparently my hair digs red tones whilst I prefer.. not. I came to terms with this until I was in the pet store the other month looking at these cute as fuck little orange baby kittens when the shop owner came up to me and said "You've got to adopt one! They match your hair!".. and on another occasion an older woman at work asked me if I was Irish and upon my reply with a yes stated "I could tell because of the freckles and orange toned hair!". Not that I think there's anything wrong with ginger locks, but it's just not the look I'm going for at this point in time. So I read somewhere on the internet that violet/purple shampoo is supposed to tone down the brassiness in blonde hair and went to pick some up the very next day. I grabbed one under the brand 'Schwarzkopf' which looks like this: 


(It cost me about 12 dollars).

   It's a VERY opaque purple colour itself and I'm not going to lie it looks a little intimidating, but I've read that the more transparent violet ones don't work nearly as good. I'm going to use it for the first time tonight and figured I'd write down the progress of this experiment as it progresses. I searched my lap top thoroughly for a good photo of my hair currently where you can really pick up on the brassy tones but to no avail. Thus, I took a quick one with my webcam where you can sortakinda see it, but I shall post a better one when I come across it.
