hey ladies this is erica johnston and welcome back to my channel and welcome to my bedroom
so this video today is sponsored by kerotin and i'm excited to tell you that i am now
a brand ambassador for their company which means that i truly believe in their products and i'm
sure that you're going to love them as well so today we're primarily going to focus on their
purple products which are formulated for blondes and women with gray hair like myself
but i will also tell you about a couple other amazing products that i've tried
as well so if you're interested in learning more then keep watching
all right so what makes these purple hair products different than all the rest of the ones that i've
talked about over the past couple years so the biggest thing with these is they're cruelty free
i know some of you have talked to me about some of the purple shampoo products that i've used
before and you've said like wow erica they're not cruelty free
and i'll tell you like this has become a really serious issue for me and so when i'm using
products whether it's skin care or hair care i really am looking for cruelty free products so
yes so kerotin is a cruelty-free company and this is what excites me so all of the purple shampoos
that i have have sulfates in them so sulfates are you know what gives you sort of that lather in the
hair and stuff but now that i've been embracing my curls a little bit more many of you have told
me that sulfates are a big no-no so these are sulfate-free and they don't have any parabens
no sodium chloride either so they're they're very very natural uh purple hair products
and they're quite new on the market so i'm pretty excited to be introducing these to you
so they smell delicious they they've got mango butter avocado oil and sage extract
about a week and a half ago i tried these products out and for those of you who have
followed my channel you'll know that i used a rose gold color on my hair
i like cruella de ville and it was semi-permanent and so it hasn't 100 come out and i don't think
it will so i think it's just a matter of me growing my hair out at this point so you know
i'm really only have like a bit of the virgin my virgin silver hair coming out that sounds
really weird but anyway my virgin silver is coming out right now and then the rest is sort of that
well i can show you another video of it dry but the rest of it is like kind of a i don't want
to say dingy because it's not it's like kind of pretty actually but like a blondy sort of color so
i wanted to see my biggest concern too with purple shampoos is sometimes they leave my hair kind of
like purpley like there's a little lavender hue or my scalp gets purple and i actually did turn down
like a sponsored video for another purple hair shampoo company and i'm not gonna name any names
but i just couldn't do the video because like my hair and scalp turn purple so keratin says to
massage their purple shampoo through your wet hair and scalp and let it sit for three to five minutes
rather than rinsing it out immediately so that's what i did and i wasn't sure i thought okay should
i put this in my scalp but it's very natural so i didn't actually feel bad doing that and it did a
really nice job of cleaning my scalp too right so sometimes you use certain shampoos and they don't
actually do anything this is really nice i did not use any clarifying shampoo or anything like
that before i just used the purple shampoo and i couldn't believe honestly how bright
my silvers looked afterwards like it really did a nice job and the hair that was kind of
a little bit yellowy it definitely neutralized that hair as well so very very happy this product
it smells oh it smells so good it's delicious very clean it's not too it's not flowery
so it's just like healthy it's really really healthy for your hair it's a very nice deep purple
hue which is what you want right to do the job all right so i used that in the shower wash my hair
and then and then i followed it up with their purple conditioner so gorgeous smell everything
was fine i'll show you the color is kind of like a light sort of a light purple color and
yeah same smell as the shampoo but i have to say like the the conditioner i
didn't find it thick enough for myself or like should i say moisturizing it wasn't
moisturizing enough for me personally but i know some of you with thin hair
or hair that gets greasy quite easily i think that you would absolutely adore this conditioner um but
if you've got hair like mine that's really can be very frizzy and thick and you need
lots of moisture then this might not work for you okay so what i did is i used this and then i used
their other conditioner as well and like you can see how much i love this conditioner right so this
is their renewal conditioner again no parabens sodium chloride and color and straightener safe
so if you use a hair straightener afterwards yippee this will this will be really good for that
it's got kerotin protein soy protein and coconut oil and smooths and softens so i just mix these
two together and that worked for me okay so if you order any of these products my coupon code is
erica hj and you can get 15 off and a lot of the times they have sales so i'm actually gonna start
posting more on instagram too when they have sales but a lot of times they have like 20 off sales
and all that so i mean if you've got my coupon code and the sale price and you're doing well so
uh they've got five star reviews for the shampoo and conditioner set it's regularly 56 dollars
and like right now as i'm filming this it's on sale for 39 so the products are made in america
and another silver sister gave this like a huge positive review she says best purple shampoo in
the world for both toning brassiness and retaining hairs moisture so i mean that's amazing she said
it's been nine months since she used purple shampoo or conditioner to tone the brassiness
from her gray hair and her hair had gotten quite yellow so she said almost like a blonde color but
she didn't want to be blonde because she wanted to identify as a silver sister right so she said
that all the purple shampoos and conditioners that she tried were actually like drying her hair out
and she said not this stuff it made her hair like shiny and glossy and she's back to silver again so
i mean that's an amazing testimony right there to this if you want something you know besides my own
besides my own testimony so that's the shampoo and conditioner and then the other purple hair product
that they have which i haven't tried i'm gonna try that today is the purple
mask this one has mango butter avocado oil and olive oil so yay so we'll give this a try okay
i just shampooed my hair with their renewal shampoo and it's really nice keratin protein
pro vitamin b5 and i'm telling you like i don't even have any conditioner in my hair right now
and my hair feels extremely soft this is crazy honestly like if i normally just used regular
shampoo and i think that's also to do with the um the sulfates i find really drying right so
yeah right now it feels like my hair there's so much moisture in it you can see that it's
not really let me know it's wet but it's like not freezing out already so let's use the mask i'm not
going to use gloves like i don't know if i should have gloves on but it doesn't say to use gloves
or anything like that okay so let's go for it so the interesting thing is i've just opened this up
and it actually has more of like a bluish purple shade so i just want you to be aware of that
you know think of the color wheel right um orange is on the opposite of blue
so i'm just curious to see kind of what happens right because i do have more yellowing
should i use it should i just do it like i know you guys are like do a strand test and i never
do a strand test i always do like the whole just like go big or go home i know so oh it's so like
deliciously actually okay i have to say the mask the smell is not very strong at all it's extremely
just delicate light smell so i am just going to go for it i'm kind of excited to see what
happens let's just go for it why not right let's do the top i'll do the top of my hair and then um
how long did it say to leave it in for
leave on for a minimum of five minutes i know i usually leave my overtone in for 15 minutes so
i just don't want i don't want it to do anything weird like i don't want it to turn
a strange color this is very blue this is really like it really is blue hmm i just wanted to show
it to you in like a different light oh i'm like shedding that's so disgusting um a little bit
more of a purple shade in this light but still more on the bluish purple side i have to say
ew gross all right i'm going to keep putting this in and then we'll show you the results
all right i have to say that that mask felt like heaven like it it was so silky
definitely don't need any conditioner at all that was like a really nice regular mask
like a deep kind of moisturizing mask i really liked it so i'm just gonna kind of squeeze out
the excess water here so my hair feels extremely unbelievably soft right now i can't believe
this i think i should just let it air dry to be honest maybe do some like scrunchy i'll put my um
wave tech in my brad mondo wave tech maybe i'll put some of that in and give it a little scrunchy
and then just let it air dry i'm i'm completely stoked with these products all right so i hope
that you enjoyed this video if you did be sure to give it a big thumbs up and go check out this
company i am serious this is it like ah i'm just so excited to find finally a purple shampoo and
conditioner that i absolutely adore and that don't leave my hair completely dry so oh uh one last
