Aveda Essentials Product Review

If you follow me on Instagram, then this topic may sound familiar. If you don’t follow me yet, then consider this reason number 9,999 to do so! Ever since I was a little girl I’ve been hair obsessed. Let’s just say, when I’m having a bad hair day, I am NOT a happy camper! In the age of curling wands and ombré hairstyles, having a reliable haircare regime has never been more important. Throughout the years I have used Aveda products to protect my hair from heat and so fourth, so to say I was excited about the new Aveda Essentials kit is an understatement.

Smooth Infusion Style Prep Smoother:

I do not brush my hair often. In fact, I often joke that I brush GG’s hair more frequently than my own! It’s totally my fault, but as a result, it’s tangly after I wash it. The style prep smoother not only prevents fly aways, but it untangles my hair before I dry it.

Phomollient Styling Foam:

This is my favorite product thus far. I have fine hair, and it takes a lot to produce volume. I am not a “teaser” so this is the next best thing. I can literally see my roots lift after running the rolling brush through my hair just once. Total game changer!

Smooth Infusion Nourishing Style Cream

The style cream works wonders in conjunction with the prep smoother. Fortunately the humidity is very minimal in San Francisco, so I do not need a dual shield on the reg. When I visit friends and family in Louisiana you can bet this item will come along with me!

Air Control Hair Spray:

I am a girly girl at heart – I play with my hair all the time. I do not like that crusty or stiff hair feeling that so many hairsprays leave you with. The air control hair spray is light yet effective. I use it when I curl my hair first thing in the morning and know I won’t have time for a fixer upper. Yay for bouncy curls all day long!

Thickening Tonic:

The thickening tonic would be great solution for folks with thin hair. I have fine strands, but a lot of ’em! While this might sound like a lot of steps and product to get a shiny mane, please note you do not have to use them all together to achieve desired results.All in all, I give the Aveda Essentials package two thumbs up!
