To Guarantee the Best Results After Your  Service
For long-lasting styles and healthy hair, follow these stylist-approved tips using Aveda’s professional home care:

🚿 Install a Shower Head Filter:
The water and sun wreak havoc on your hair here in Florida. Don’t have a whole house water softener? No problem!  You may get a Sprite water filter from Lowe’s or Amazon and install it right on your very own shower head. You will instantly see results in the way your shampoo lathers and the way your hair and skin feel afterward. It is also great for the upkeep of your shower, as you will not need to use harsh chemicals to clean water buildup on the surfaces of your shower.

🌿 48-Hour Rule:When & how often to wash
While we understand you may feel the need to wash your hair every day, it is actually not helpful in keeping your fresh hair color and/or style. We suggest using Aveda’s non-aerosol Shampowder, similar to a baby powder for your hair, to freshen your hair when you get sweaty or just feel the need to give your hair an extra wash.
We recommend washing every 2 to 4 days depending on your style.

🧴 Shampoo + Conditioner: How to wash
We recommend using about the size of a nickel size of shampoo for the first wash of your hair. Then, follow up with a second wash of a dime size. You will notice it will lather a lot better. This will keep you from using too much shampoo and making sure you’re getting a thorough cleanse. For a conditioner, depending on the length of your hair, start with the size of a dime starting on your ends and working your way through. Especially if you like volume, be sure to leave the conditioner off of your roots.

Use one of the following Aveda systems, based on your hair’s needs:

• Color Control – For preserving color vibrancy and protecting against fade.
• Botanical Repair – Strengthens hair from the inside out.
• Nutriplenish – Deep hydration for dry, thirsty hair.
• Invati Advanced- For thicker fuller hair
• Be Curly- For hydrated frizz free bouncy curls
• Smooth Infusion- For frizz free hair upto 72 hours
• Scalp Solutions- For a healthy scalp

💆‍♀️ Deep Conditioning:
Use the Botanical Repair Strengthening Masque (light or rich) or Nutriplenish Hydrating Masque (light or rich) once or twice a month. Apply after shampooing, leave on for 5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly for stronger, smoother hair.

✨ Leave-In Protection:
Apply a dime- to nickel-sized amount of one of the following to damp or dry hair, focusing especially around your hairline where strands are more delicate:

• Botanical Repair Strengthening Leave-In Treatment – Prevents breakage and heat damage.
• Nutriplenish Leave-In Conditioner – Hydrates, detangles, and provides UV protection.
• Color Control Leave-In Treatment – Seals in shine and locks in color vibrancy.

🛏️ Sleep + Drying Tips:

• Tie hair loosely with a silk scrunchie—never while wet.
• Use a silk pillowcase to reduce friction.
• Dry gently with a microfiber towel, squeezing hair rather than rubbing to protect the cuticle.
• Don’t go to bed with wet hair or air dry-this will result in breakage excess tangling and oilier scalp is the perfect breeding ground for bacteria on your scalp.

🌿 Refresh Without Washing:

• Use Scalp Solutions Refreshing Protective Mist or Shampowder Dry Shampoo to absorb oil, eliminate odors, and maintain scalp balance between washes.

🔥 Heat Styling Tip:
Use Aveda Heat Relief Thermal Protector & Conditioning Mist to freshen up and protect your hair when using hot tools the next day.
