i do hairdressing at college and quite a few people come in and want their hair dyed purple shades.
they sell purple hair dyes in the shops.
so why do shampoos only come in blonde, red and brunette colours?

Hiya Babe,
Well You Can Get A Few Products For Purple Shades But Usualy Top Profesionals Make Shampoos That Are Great For Natural Tones And I Dont Think That One Person In The World Has Purple As There Natural Hair Colour...And Even Though Maybe There May Be A Few There Arent Enough To Make A Shapoo Brand For! Maybe They Could Buy A Red Or A Vibrant Colour And Try That
Hope I Could Be Of Help, Im Sorry If Not......Merry Christmas
Gd Luck

Although purple shades may be popular, shampoo companies don't see it as a strong marketing target. They stick to the same basic 3 shades because that's what would sell the most. If they did try to market purple, it would be sold in spurts and sit on the shelf most of the time. If it doesn't sell quickly, companies see it as wasting their money. Some shampoo campanies do have "color lock" products, which helps hold the color in you're hair no matter what the shade is.

There are several products you can use for purple tones.
Aveda and Paul Mitchell both have color enhancing shampoos with purple base. Although they are meant for natural tones they can still be used to enhance unnatural tones.

Because blonde, brunette, red and black are the only NATURAL hair colors.
If they had shampoo for purple hair, they'd need shampoo for green, blue, and pink too!

Not enough market for other colors. Purple seems to be a very trendy thing, if it sticks around long enough, you will see shampoos.

because its not a popular colour and therefore there companies wont want to spend money developing a new product and paying for new packaging and advertising.
