Saltair Beach Blonde Purple Shampoo
by Saltair · hair_care
Editor's Take
Saltair gets the brass-control job done without resorting to harsh sulfates, but the prominent fragrance keeps this from feeling as considered as its cleansing base.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Performance: 7.8 / 10
- Innovative Ingredients: 6.2 / 10
- Clean Standards: 5.5 / 10
- Formula Sustainability: 6.8 / 10
The Verdict
Efficacy is Strong: Violet 2 tempers brassiness, while Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate makes this a solid weekly wash for blonde or highlighted hair. Technology has Some Modern Features, including the sulfate-free multi-surfactant base, though Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate and Polyquaternium-10 keep it from the front edge. Clean is Mixed, largely because fragrance, Cocamide MIPA, and synthetic color remain in the formula, while sustainability is Good. Worth it for routine toning when color correction matters more than clean-beauty credentials.
