What are the effects of the colour 60730 on your hair?
This pigment helps remove brassy, ashy tones from blonde, grey and white hair. It doesn’t dye or damage the hair, it just sits slightly on the hair cuticles (so, on the outside). Building up gradually, the violet colour interacts with the yellow tones of fair hair by ‘cancelling’ them. This is because violet and yellow are opposites on the colour wheel and therefore mute each other out, at least to the human eye's perception. No purple, no yellow…just shiny hair!
