BRASSY TINGE? Reverse it with a “grape” rinse

-

A whole host of things like overexposu­re to the sun or swimming in chlorinate­d water can cause blond hair to take on an orange cast, says colorist Kyle White, who’s worked with Jane Pauley and Patricia Heaton. His advice: Wash it with grape Kool-Aid. Since orange and purple are opposite from each other on the color wheel, the drink’s purple hue neutralize­s hair’s brassy tones.

TO DO: Mix half of a packet of grape Kool-Aid powder with 3 cups of water. Pour onto damp hair, let sit 5 minutes; rinse. Use once a week for lasting results.
