Q: If apply this in my dark brown hair will it make it a lighter shade of brown?

submitted by Rosie - 3 months ago

  • A: Hi Rosie. The Go Blonder Lightening Spray was not designed for dark brown hair and you could risk damaging your hair color. If you are looking to lighten your hair, we have a variety of hair dyes in our Precision Foam Color line that could help with this.

Q: Will this shampoo also lighten silver hair?

submitted by Silversharon - 5 months ago

  • A: Hi, great question! Our Go Blonder Lightening Spray was not designed for grey hair. We recommend giving our Violet Crush line a try to help with toning blonde and grey hair. Hope this helps!

    USED TO BE GOOD; CHANGED THE FORMULA AND NOW SUCKS

    I have been using this product for over 15 years. Recently, I noticed a change in both the packaging and the shampoo. I was told that they changed the formula to make it “vegan”. The product is much runnier now so you have to use more of it to wash your hair; and even then it doesn’t do as good a job as the old formula. Never buying this product again.

    Saving time !!

    I have used this product for over 20 years and it is a favorite shampoo for highlights. I have not been able to find it in stores lately and thrilled I found it on line. So a quick order and it was here in a short time no more running around to stores looking for it.

    The new formula smell is not great!

    I love the shampoo and how well it cleans my hair, but I’m not a fan of the new formula smell. It smells like a candy necklace, which makes me feel like I’m using a product for a preteen. So sad because I really loved the citrusy floral smell of the old formula! I really hope they change it back!!

    works so well the brighter blonde catches my eye in mirrors

    I’m shocked at how much it worked!! My bleached/colored parts are like a honey blonde and after using this, the brighter sections of creamy blonde literally catch my eye in the mirror. I love using this every once in a while for a boost and will keep using it. btw, i was not gifted this, i paid for it myself. OH lastly i never used the matching conditioner, the shampoo worked well on its own.

    New smell is awful

    I used to love this shampoo and conditioner. it always worked great and smelled wonderful. The new smell is terrible, and it does not seem to work as good as it used to. I have started looking for another shampoo/conditioner. Please bring back the other formula.

    Great

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shampoo was perfect with the shampoo to create an amazing look and to help the color stay. I received from Pinchme as a sample to try.

    New Smell is Terrible

    This has always been my go to shampoo but the new scent smells strongly like some sort of lemon cleaning supply. I really hate it. Will not buy again unless I can be sure the scent improves. Ideally, back to the smell before which I liked and got compliments on how my hair smelled.

    Go Lighter Shampoo

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] John Frieda Go Blonder Shampoo is a great product. The shampoo smells amazing, with a light citrus smell. I definitely noticed a few shades lighter in my highlighted hair. I never felt any build up in my hair and loved the way my hair smelled after a shower.

    Lightened my hair!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can only add one picture but after having a baby my hair started to go brown. This has helped bring a little bit of the blonde out and lightened up the brown! I only used it 3 times so I’m excited to see what using the whole bottle will do!

    Works Great

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this item free as a sample from PinchMe. The shampoo and conditioner left my hair feeling clean, soft, and manageable. I enjoyed the fresh scent and appreciated how gentle the formula felt on my hair. With continued use, it helped enhance the brightness of my blonde tones.

    Lovely!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this shampoo and conditioner system, left my hair soft and so shiny! My hair does looks bolder and blonder and it’s natural and subtle. Would buy again and use again and recommend to anyone looking for a blinding shampoo/conditioner.

    Works

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The John Frieda go blonder shampoo & conditioner worked well! I noticed my hair get lighter! I loved the citrus smell. I did find the conditioner did not moisturize my hair as well as my regular conditioner so I used that after using this set.

    Fine, but no noticeable lightening

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has natural dirty blonde hair and was excited to try this shampoo. It smelled fine, worked fine, and didn't cause any issues, but we didn't notice any real difference in the brightness or lightness of her hair. Overall, it was perfectly okay, but nothing special enough that I would purchase again.

    Blonde shampoo

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did notice overall brightening of my highlights over time! It wasn’t an immediate change, but I do find this more effective than purple shampoo. It did not soften my hair as advertised, but I liked how it did not weigh my fine hair down. It is gentle enough to use everyday. I like how it extends my highlights and I feel like I can go longer without getting my hair done so often!
