Matrix Brass Off Blue Shampoo
Matrix
A color-depositing blue shampoo that neutralizes orange and red brass on lightened brunettes and dark blondes without stripping color.
Why Asian Stylists Recommend It
Partially lifted dark Asian hair turns orange-red, and Brass Off's blue-violet pigment cancels that warmth a purple shampoo cannot reach.

Best for
Lightened brunettes and dark blondes fighting orange and red brass.
Avoid if
You are very light blonde with yellow tones, where a purple shampoo is the correct choice.
Why we recommend it
Matrix Brass Off deposits blue-violet pigment to neutralize the orange and red undertones that surface on dark blondes and brunettes who lighten their hair, refreshing a cool-toned result. It cleanses and hydrates without stripping color, so lightened hair stays nourished across levels. For overseas Asian clients who lifted dark brown hair only a few shades, the orange that appears needs blue rather than purple, and Brass Off targets exactly that. Paired with the Brass Off mask, it can tone brassy hair in a single wash; the conditioner maintains it between salon visits.
