I am currently just past shoulder length now with fine hair (its finally past shoulder and its showing my growth! yay!)

Well, I needed a good leave in conditioner, because no matter how good my conditioner is when i rinse out, my hair looks kind of funny. I dont know how to put it, like feathered and textured at the same time.

Well, I figured, I usually dont splurge on my hair for myself, and I was at a mall in a privileged neighborhood with expensive brands. I decided to wander into the aveda store.

I told the salesman my goals for my hair: something that helps with growth as well as a good leave in conditioner.

He seemed knowledgeable enough about what would work best for my fine hair. I decided to try the leave in damage remedy as well as sign up for the rewards program (a one time 10 dollar fee and you rack up points, no credit line)

So i figured why not. And as a courtesy he threw in some samples of the aveda invati scalp revitalizer.

WELL
i came home, put the products on my hair, and fell asleep, woke up with the MOST AMAZING HAIR EVER. I even instagrammed my hair it looked so good!

the damage remedy makes your ends feel like theyre freshly trimmed, moisturized and defines your hair without making it look like there is product on it. With my fine hair I was worried I would feel it on there and honestly, I feel nothing on my hair. It just feels soft and amazing.

Now, for the scalp revitalizer, it feels incredible. It tingles like peppermint oil, but leaves no oily residue. I sprayed all over my scalp after dividing into sections and sort of just scratched my head all over to disperse it.

Well, I dont know how to explain it, but my scalp feels well, alive. It isnt greasy, it feels light but it feels stimulated as well.

i WILL be buying these products again. I usually am not a big believer in price = quality but it seems to be an exception here.

I am not sure if i will buy their shampoo or rinse out conditioner since I am using a 2% ketoconazale (thank you ebay) that has sped up my growth. My rinse out conditioner is by alba, its the coconut one.

I find for me personally, a moderately good rinse out conditioner and the ketoconazale shampoo Ive been using works best for growing out my hair; and what my hair really depends on are the other types of products. (scalp sprays, leave in conditioners, etc.)

Either way, I am extremely impressed with these products and I am linking them to you :) Also, I am posting photos of my hair. It usually lays pretty flat but as you can see, thats not the case. also, i didnt style my hair at ALL in the photo, no rollers, no heat, no heatless waves. Nothing.

The Damage Remedy leave in is my favorite leave in of all time. I haven't tried the scalp spray but seeing your results makes me want to get some. Your hair looks fabulous.

ExpectoPatronum
