Colour fading? Silver strands coming through? Yellow warmth stealing the shine?
Hair doesn’t always stay the same. Whether you’re growing out salon colour, embracing naturally greying hair, or noticing a change in your hair colour after medical treatment, the in-between stage can feel a little unpredictable.
Meet Violet Silk — a lightweight, violet-pigmented rinse-off toning serum for the days your lighter lengths, highlights or silver strands start looking more yellow than you’d like.
Designed as a targeted in-shower step rather than another heavy purple conditioner, Violet Silk helps soften the appearance of unwanted yellow tones while conditioning ingredients support a smoother, softer-feeling finish.

Who it's for
Blonde, bleached, highlighted, naturally greying, white and silver hair with visible yellow warmth — particularly during a colour-growing-out or grey-blending transition. Hair colour changes after treatment can be part of that journey too; this is a cosmetic colour-refresh product, not a treatment for medical hair or scalp changes.
How to use
After shampooing, apply a small amount to wet hair, focusing on lighter or yellow-toned sections. Distribute evenly, rinse thoroughly and follow with conditioner. Test on a discreet strand first to assess colour pickup. Follow the contact-time directions on the finished product label.
Good to know
Violet pigment works on yellow tones, not strong orange or copper shades; it does not reverse greying or permanently colour hair. Results depend on shade, porosity, prior colouring and contact time. Very pale or porous strands may pick up violet. Avoid use on an irritated or broken scalp. If your scalp is affected by chemotherapy, radiation or other treatment, check with your treating team before using toning products. For hair only; avoid the eyes, eyebrows and eyelashes. May stain fabrics or porous surfaces. Stop use if irritation occurs.
