I was afraid of conditioner! But not anymore.
I found that conditioners always left my fine hair looking dull and greasy, but if I didn’t use one the ends split and it was full of static electricity.
Then one day I found the answer Aveda conditioner. I started out using the rosemary and mint, my hair was lovely, nothing to be afraid of. But now I had confidence in Aveda I wanted more, condition but something that was quicker.
Elixir Leave-on Conditioner dare I, well I got up my courage and tried it, and yes everything was fine, my hair was soft, shiny and manageable.
This is a lovely product made from organically grown herbs, including rosemary, peppermint, lavender and aloe. It smells lovely and leaves the hair soft, shiny and lightly fragranced.
The reason it does not make your hair oily is because it is waterbased.
Just wash your hair, preferably with an Aveda shampoo, dab off any excess water with a towel, and apply a little of the liquid to your hair starting at the ends. I always warm the conditioner in the palms of my hands, as this expands it and helps to spread more evenly. Comb it through, then dry and style as usual. It really does save time, as you don’t have to rinse it out again.
I know ’a little’ is not a precise amount, but I would say I use a blob about the size of a walnut on medium length hair.
The consistency is quite light, more like a serum than a cream.
So I would recommend this product for speed, ease of use, and excellent results.
