My Aveda Shopping Trip!!

[BackToMyRoots]

So I went to the Aveda store to buy some of the products that have been mentioned on this board...before i left I went on the website to see what would be compatible with my hair.

I walked in the store and i was so excited....i looked liked a prime target ripe for the picking The sales lady greeted me with some tea, i didn't really want it but i took it anyway, might as well get something for free!

I had my list and as i read off what i wanted she got me a basket and just followed me around putting things in it. She was very helpful....I mentioned that I wanted something to treat itchy scalp and she mentioned that they were redeveloping a product that applies directly to the scalp and that it will be available in 2 weeks. Anyhoo, this is what I bought:

-Brilliant Damage Control
-Damage Remedy Shampoo
-Damage Remedy Intensive Restructuring Treatment
-Hang Straight
-Brilliant Anti-Humectant Pomade
-Brilliant Emollient Finishing Gloss

My hair is in need of serious help. I suffer from dryness and split ends, middle, etc. I'm not using heat, i moisture...protein...I don't get it. I suspect that no-lye relaxers may be the culprit, when i was in high school and using lye this was not an issue, and i used far more heat then. Hopefully Aveda can help turn things around....that and switching to lye...I may have to say goodbye to PHYTO.

Can't wait to try AVEDA will report back

I hope that you enjoy the products!!!!!!!!!!!

Today, I purchased the Anti-Humectant Pomade and I really do like it. It's not too thick and goopy. I tested it on my hair, and it's not bad at all! I'm sure you will like it too!!!


Just a little tip on the Aveda DR Treatment, be careful with it because if it's left on too long, it could cause protein overload. I know it works differently with everyone, but I left it in my hair overnight a couple weeks ago, and it was too much. Next time I will let it set for an hour or less.

Thanks for the tip...I have it in right now! I think i'll leave it for 30 minutes hopefully it turns out ok! I loved the shampoo...it's weird but my hair actually felt soft after a shampoo. I can't wait for it to start improving.

Thanks DivineFavor and Mom23 i'm really hoping for this turn around. I'm so excited
