Moisturizing gloss
"I’ve used color correcting shampoos before, but this is my first time using a color correcting product that functions as a conditioner, and it honestly makes much more sense. Since conditioners are meant to be left on longer, it allows the toning pigments more time to actually absorb into the hair. Most toning products I’ve used in the past were shampoos and felt drying, but this one was genuinely moisturizing and felt more like a conditioning gloss. I also really appreciated the scent, which was woody and almost unisex, something I personally loved. After using it, my hair felt soft, super shiny, and well conditioned. I have balayage highlights as well as natural gray hairs, and I noticed both looked brighter, healthier, and more vibrant overall."

Needs a little umph
"Calista GLOSS Purple Color Enhancement *Incentivized *Product was received as part of an educational promotion. * I would give a higher rating but I have conflicting thoughts on the product. As a gloss it works amazing , it leaves your hair feeling smooth and manageable which is something you need with blonde hair. However when it comes to neutralizing blonde or keeping them bright it needs a little umph , punch more of pigment. I tried it on its own without purple shampoo and did not see any changes in toning . I then compared it to a similar conditioning product for blonde hair and saw that the gloss was lacking in the toning aspect . IF the gloss worked better with blonde hair then it would be the PERFECT product."

My hair feels and looks amazing
"I absolutely loved everything about the Calista gloss purple color enhancement! From the first use, my hair looked noticeably brighter and more refreshed, with the perfect hint of cool toned purple that enhanced my color without overpowering it. Not forgetting to mention it didn’t now leave any purple spitting in my hair. The shine was unreal my hair was super glossy, smooth, and looked like I had just stepped out of a salon. What impressed me most was how amazing my hair felt afterward soft, hydrated, and healthy, not dry or weighed down like some color products can be. It also helped neutralize brassiness while keeping my hair vibrant and fresh. This is such an easy way to maintain color and boost shine at home. I’ll definitely be keeping this in my regular hair routine!"

Noticeable Results After First-Use
"This product has my jaw on the floor! I took photos prior to a single use, and photos after my hair had dried after use. The amount of brassiness that seemed to be gone from my hair was already noticeable! It now looks just like when I was leaving the salon with my fresh highlights!When using the product, I was impressed by the extremely pleasant scent of the product. With hair care, sometimes I have encountered products that have a really abrasive or chemical type of smell. After use, my finacee commented on how good my hair smelled! The product works great on it's own, and the added bonus of the product scent is a plus!I am excited to continue using this product when I see the brass in my hair come back! As a blonde, this product feels like it was made with me in mind."

Love for my highlights!
"GLOSS Purple Color Enhancement has truly become my secret weapon against unwanted brassy tones, leaving my hair looking salon-fresh and vibrant. The rich, violet pigments instantly neutralize yellow hues, giving my blonded highlights that coveted cool, bright finish without any dullness. It’s helped keep my color in check even months after the salon! The formula also leaves my hair feeling incredibly soft and conditioned, which is a huge bonus for color-treated strands. The product works great on it's own, and the added bonus of the product scent is a plus! I am excited to continue using this product when I see the brass in my hair come back! The only note I have is that you’ve got to wait the full suggested time (20min) to really get the full results of the gloss! Definitely worth it though."

Wait in the shower is a bummer
"The scent is OK. The effect on my hair was great! I think it enhanced my color considerably and toned down the brassiness. The texture is thick enough that it stays on my damp hair in the shower and doesn't run off. Standing in the shower for 5-20 minutes for it to work is a bummer; the other choice, getting out of the shower and getting back in, is also a bummer. In the future, I will put in on when I first start my shower to cut down on the wait time. It lasts for quite a few hair washes. I don't know if it actually will last 8 washes, but definitely 6. It was a tiny bit scary putting something so vibrantly purple on my hair, you know, anything can happen, but it was all good. I will continue to use this product in the future. I have short hair, so the 6. 7 oz tube, while pricy, is affordable."

WOW
"I have to say I LOVE Calista's GLOSS Purple Color Enhancement. I style my hair daily with heated hair tools as it is frizzy, thick, dry hair. I have not tried anything like this before of a color enhancement product. However, this product after the first use has helped add shine and softness to my hair that I have been unable to achieve. It also gave my dark color hair a new "shine" to it. It was not hair dye but my hair did look brighter, more alive. It is lightweight and non-greasy feel, which is a plus for me. You only need a little amount to go a long way so the bottle will last quite a while. I am excited to continue to use this product in my hair routine. I highly recommend it to others to try and achieve hair softness today! Product was received as part of an educational promotion."

Impress with the gloss!
"I'm genuinely impressed with the Calista Gloss Clear Shine Enhancement, especially now. At 57, my hair has become much drier, and many shine products tend to weigh it down or make it look greasy. This product avoids both issues. It imparts a beautiful, healthy shine while remaining lightweight. What I appreciate most is how soft and smooth my hair feels after applying it. It controls frizz and dryness without residue or buildup, which is vital for mature, dry hair. My hair looks more polished and vibrant, yet it stays natural and touchable. A small amount is all I need, and it works well whether I style my hair or let it air-dry. This has become one of my favorite finishing products, and I highly recommend it—especially for those with dry or aging hair—who want shine without losing softness or movement"

new favorite!
"i’ve been using calistagloss purple color enhancement for a bit now and i’m genuinely impressed. i was looking for something that would tone down brassiness without leaving my hair dry or dull, and this does exactly that. the purple pigment is noticeable but not overwhelming, so it neutralizes yellow tones while still keeping my blonde bright and natural looking. what i love most is how soft and hydrated my hair feels after using it. it doesn’t give that stripped or crunchy feeling some purple products do. my hair looks shinier, smoother, and more refreshed overall. it’s super easy to use and fits perfectly into my routine. honestly, it makes my color look freshly done every time and i’ve already gotten compliments since using it. definitely a product i’ll keep reaching for."
